Around the NHL: 2019-20 Season Pt. 1

[Weltschmerz]

The Leafs D is so bad. They are always going to win a lot of regular season games with that offense, and nothing in the playoffs. And good luck addressing gaping holes with their cap situation

That meltdowns keeps me awake, great read on their GDT.

I would assume until teams start flipping it cross ice, that backdoor is wiiiide open

For teams that lack the high end passers, I bet some teams will/should run overloads on the puck side with picks.

There's always a counter, but its so fun to see teams be willing to commit to the unexpected.

So the Jackets are adapting their PKing...



...wonder how long until this becomes more the norm. The box gave way to the diamond and now we see wedge +1.

That's got to be tiring though if you can maintain possession in the zone.

holy hell

Avs have a PP in overtime and score in their own goal lol

Those are so good.

I don't like going against a team with McDavid in fantasy, he's such a cheat code.

Let's see if the three kids can carry the mail while the captain is out.

2nd Vegas player in two years I believe. Schmidt was the 1st.

Hey, I know plenty of people who want to give him a finger!

Also they've just identified the culprit:

WHOOP WHOOP!!!!

They've actually only been a .500 pt team since December of last year. Let's hope that trend continues. How epic would it be if they missed the playoffs? It's doubtful, but a man can dream.

What can we steal from the Wild?

Seeing that made me wonder if that drops the price on Zucker.

 

[Sabresfansince1980]

I don't see anyone on Minnesota being all that helpful. The Sabres cap situation narrows options. Next summer all the pending RFAs that should be re-signed will leave no cap room at all. The only way to make an impact FW addition is to trade salary for salary in a hockey trade (roughly 5-6 mil given potentially expendable players like Ristolainen or Montour). With one significant move to improve the FWs long-term, I wouldn't be putting all my chips into Zucker. Botterill could move out Scandella and Bogosian early on to get picks and to clear cap, and then flip them later for a typical TDL buy like pending UFA Toffoli, but that's not a long-term solution and I wouldn't want to rely on him deciding to re-sign as my long-term FW addition.

Well, you can't say that Joel Eriksson Ek isn't giving it everything he has.

Foligno for Erod. They need RH shots and we need someone with a set of stones.

I can't be the only one who thought of this...

And we can officially put to bed the notion that Reinhart will come in under $7.5 million AAV on a long-term deal.
