Looking forward to it.

Anyone else looking at that bottom 6 and thinking that despite the turnover it still looks like pure shit? Outside of Foegele everyone looks to be a line too high. Scevior and Ryan would make up 2/3rds of a great 4th line and Perlini-Shore-Turris looks like a line that belongs in the AHL.

Must say I'm also flummoxed by starting the season with Drai and McDavid together. Wasn't the whole point of bringing in Hyman so we could keep them split up? Not even going to start the year with it?

Ah well. I'm sure its been discussed over the last week or so around here.

The wingers are fine but another bottom six center would solidify the jello.

MaKewan is a loser, we all know that. From a distance he seemed like an okish 4th line pest though, I'm kind of surprised the Nucks waived him because those guys are always in high demand no matter how bad they are at actually playing the game. Kind of the modern day goon that every team needs at least one of in the lineup. To be honest I wouldn't have been

I like Chaisson more than most, but is he worth losing a younger player on waivers for? The Nucks seem to have a way of making bizarre decisions no matter what they do.

Off to walk the dog, pickup my buddy and off to the game.....

In this manner I do NOT have to listen to the SN broadcast.

Lets go Oilers!

Oh man imagine the negative media attention the oilers would have gotten if we had Chiasson in as our 1RW opening night??

Enjoy the game fellas!

As usual, no complaining allowed on opening night until at least the second period.

I thought the point of getting hyman was so mcdrai weren't on the same line? You have 2 of the best centres in the world why are they not driving their own line? I get they are insane together but that 2nd line is full of complimentary players. Oh well hoping for a win to start the season off anyway
