Hey everybody! Opening day is finally here! Great GDT them @TheDaysOf 04 for our 30th season, wow.

Oh man, it feels like so long since we had a live thread.

two top 6 forwards gone and Colton STILL can't get some top 6 time?

come on man

Oh he will get time when the injuries start. He’s got to be better when he is with the top guys . I want him to succeed up there we need him to push Cirelli down to the 3rd line. But they have to give Hagel a look a waste of time in my opinion but that’s it. I like Paul as well as everyone but he’s more of a 3rd line guy as well that can play up. Hagel needs to show the ability to play with Point, Stammer, Kuch what we saw last year showed he could not. Will they Gel sure hope so. We are gonna see some rough stretches when the big guys start getting nicked up and if they miss big chunks we could be a wildcard team or worse. The East has got better. And one only hast o look at St Louis to realize on top of the world one year and fall off a cliff the next.

The debut at MSG is something to be remembered for Koepke.

why am I so nervous?​

 

[Stormbreaker]

Jacob "Headshot" Trouba is your captain?

 

[Byrddog]

Time is close excited to see what the team has. Great core no argument but are the support players enough? I want to be suprised but my gut tells me no.

[TheDaysOf 04]

This feels like a revenge game for the Rangers. Need to be ready for the challenge.

 

[TheDaysOf 04]

Feels like we were just here in this building not too long ago. Good memories

 

[TheDaysOf 04]

Let's Go Bolts!

Let them get it out of their system early.
