Zibanejad has taken off in his development .. Turned into a top line centre.
Love that the Sens gave him away with a 2nd round pick
They're horrible. Should really consider trading Larkin as they're going to waste his best years away.Man the Red Wings are the worst team I have seen in a long time. I really doubt they get out of the bottom in the next 5 years.
How long before Chayka gets fired from Arizona and gets hired here?

Or, he should ask around before he made that trade. Then again, he believes games are playing on the spreadsheet, not on the iceI like Chyka, but I am surprised he is still there. He started off well, but I didn't like his last year or so. The Hall trade was brave but he should have known his team wasn't ready for that kind of move.
All the right teams are losing tonight...WC competing teams....Rangers, Blue Jackets and Hurricanes.
Looks like the Canes used up all their energy to beat us and now can’t win.
Man what happened to Pittsburgh? We beat them and now they can't win a game.
Seems to be the way this season is going for everybody, when your winning you win a ton and when your losing you can't buy a win
I guess when there is this much parity around the league when you get a hot or cold patch it gets magnified to an extreme degree in your results
Honestly I think he needs to move on from Rick Tocchet. His system stifles any offense what so ever and on paper they have enough offense up front to be lethal.How long before Chayka gets fired from Arizona and gets hired here?
... Morgan Rielly en 2012
« Oui, je l’aimais beaucoup. Mais je venais d’être embauché le 2 mai, et mon nouveau staff aimait beaucoup Alex Galchenyuk. J’étais avec Chicago cette saison-là, et on repêchait plus tard. On ne perdait pas notre temps avec Galchenyuk, qui allait probablement être choisi parmi les premiers ; en plus, il n’avait presque pas joué cet hiver-là. Je regardais notre situation au centre, on avait [David] Desharnais, [Tomas] Plekanec, et Chucky était considéré comme un centre. Tu entres en poste, tu n’as pas vu jouer Galchenyuk et tu vas les forcer à prendre un autre joueur ? Ça commence bien une relation. J’ai laissé choisir. En plus, j’étais d’accord, je savais qu’on avait besoin de joueurs de centre. Mais j’aimais beaucoup Morgan Rielly. »
On the otherhand, Tocchet is one of the reasons the team has stayed competitive. It's not his fault Kessel and Hall have declined.Honestly I think he needs to move on from Rick Tocchet. His system stifles any offense what so ever and on paper they have enough offense up front to be lethal.
He's a good coach but that team should be a lot better with the pieces they have.
Crazy how many 1st round picks were dealt this year, some of them potentially very high
SJS --> Ottawa ~ top 5
Arizona --> NJ ~ top 10
Pittsburgh --> Minnesota
Boston --> Anaheim
Toronto --> Carolina *--> NYR
*Carolina --> NYR
Tampa --> SJS
NYI --> Ottawa
One of those 1st and maybe 2nds will become Leafs pick while AJ joins Brown and Smith in OttawaA few teams will like Ottawa & New Jersey will be walking be walking up to podium a lot this draft and have a lot of top 60 (overall) picks. Ottawa has three 1st round picks and four 2nds as an example.
