What’s the over/under for how long until Laine/DuBois want out of their new teams?
Domi and/or Texier, for now.What a trade for Columbus. Who's Laine gonna play with, though?
So, you want to go to Vegas, Miami, or New York? Ok...Jarmo is cold-blooded. You don't want to play here? Ok, enjoy Winnipeg!

I'm extremely ambivalent about this one. But I was also similarly worried about Jones as the return for Johansen, and he quickly had me eating crow. So... hoping. Desperately hoping. But worried.
I think you did fine here. Even if it's not a long-term fit, the trade was excellent value and should enable Jarmo to get a high-quality piece that is a fit. I'd expect Laine to have a nice season being in a new situation where he's "the guy" upfront and with a coach that should be able to get more out of him than Maurice did. Columbus locker room also seems to be a tight group, but one that has no issues with you if you put the work in, Winnipeg seems like a different dynamic from the stories you hear.Domi and/or Texier, for now.

But they are original 6, so they're the national game.Detroit might be the worst hockey team I've ever watched.
I saved Forsberg and Josi for the NPPG just so they could light up Chicago. They better not have to reschedule those games.Debrincat and Boqvist placed in COVID protocol. If it's just those two, then good for the Preds to have Debrincat out this week. But fingers crossed that the situation in Chicago doesn't grow and threaten our games against them.
I really don't understand how the NHL decides it's scheduling sometimes. Friday night and there is only one game tonight.
My son got his Stars blackout jersey today, so he's pretty happy watching that and wearing his new duds. I on the other hand have Korpisalo on my FHL team so I can't even have fun watching him having fun.today's discovery: Pavelski does that to both my teams.
I hate everything.
At some point a team is going to figure out how not to put Dallas on the PP.today's discovery: Pavelski does that to both my teams.

Or the Refs are going to stop making as many ticky tac and just flat wrong calls. There have been some rough games this year in that category.At some point a team is going to figure out how not to put Dallas on the PP.
A theory on why we do better in the 3rd period: the refs have filled their quota of those calls and we aren't trading PPs as much. I'm too lazy to look up the stats, though.Or the Refs are going to stop making as many ticky tac and just flat wrong calls. There have been some rough games this year in that category.
Or we play more aggressive because we're trailing and we've stopped the passive bullshit that Hynes system dictates. Which is also why we can't score in the first, too passive.A theory on why we do better in the 3rd period: the refs have filled their quota of those calls and we aren't trading PPs as much.

Of course we also do better in the 3rd because by that time the other team is sitting back more protecting their lead and our guys are better when we're not being pressured as much, just in general.
