hot take!

way too early to call that.

I'll show you exhibit A, the st. louis blues from last year

Their D is so active in all 3 zones, wish we played like this more. They have the green light a lot of the time and it's paying off.
Hamilton and Pesce are scoring key goals.

Slavin, DH and Pesce are 3 of the top 20 D in the league. If not top 15. It's disgusting how good their defense is.
Have watched a good amount of their 5 games, they will start to dethrone WSH and PIT, the aging powerhouses. NYR, CBJ and NJ are weak and building. PHI and NYI are wildcards. CAR has a good shot at winning the Metro division for next 2-3 years until NYR catches up.

4 tall boys deep so could be talking out my ass

They remind me of
Nashville. Unreal d but they don’t have the elite scoring forwards imo.

Aho, TT and Svech is a good start at top 6. There's room to grow there with Necas, Gauthier, Suzuki etc.
Really hope Stillman is a mid round gem like Slavin (4th rounder). Know it's a big ask right now but Riley has the pedigree.

Seemed like Guddy was a lot better with Pittsburgh than he was with us and Vancouver.

I think this just goes to show how bad Jack Johnson's contract is. Best part, there's still three years left after this season.

I don't feel bad. In Columbus, didn't the guy's parents basically steal his money away from him, and he had to declare bankruptcy?
I hope he's getting his now.
You're right, but Pens giving him that many years was stupid from day one.
