Speculation: Scorching Hot Summer Takes (Screen-Melting Predictions and Opinions 2017)

[PB12]

Some really good hot takes in this thread but I think this one was the best.

Hahaha i forgot about this.

Holtby struggles at the start of the season, we are begging that its PGs time, but in the end the beast returns

PB12 is clearly some sort of sorcerer.

It was a gloriously timely return, posting his first shutout of the year in Tampa game 6, followed up by another in game 7.

Nice call, @PB12

Man i should of said Holtby leads us to the cup. I was thinking Holtby would have a great playoffs but another 2nd round exit despite the offseason losses.

Tepid Take: This is a pretty boring team, I want to be entertained if we're going to ice this monstrosity, sign Jagr and you've got my money for another year.

Best “boring” team ever...

I mean they were a pretty boring team until April. I still stand by that part of the claim.

Least shots ever to win a cup. Boring works!

That shooting percentage tho!

You know this reminds me, BT said something—and we all made fun of it—about the shift from more shots to higher quality shots this season as being a conscious decision they made after the loss to Pitt the previous playoffs. I wonder if that’s an example of Reirden’s influence. Just speculating of course, but if BMac basically said, either listen to this guy or your gone, this could be an area where Trotz conceded.

I think we are almost ready for the 2018 version of scorching hot takes.

I think we are almost ready for the 2018 version of scorching hot takes.

I’d say after July 1.
