OT: Around the NHL: Are we playing games yet?

[Honour Over Glory]

NYR’s posted roster (outside of JJ on the 2nd pair ) is actually really, really good imo.

Nervous excitement for this year. Gotta think at least one of us, Boston, or Wash misses the playoffs. Division is such a grinder.

That made their roster?

JJ - DeAngelo which I think is actually their 3rd.

2001 NHL Entry Draft Picks at hockeydb.com

PA Parenteau a 9th rounder!

I hate saying that, but I really like Montreal's depth.

They lack in top-end talent, but they are 4 lines deep and play very well. They are dominating the Leafs 5v5.

Lucky for Montreal they play in the shittiest division ever with less teams than most others.

Another cool pass. Crosby could learn from these tonight

You weren't impressed with him consistently trying to pass through 5 guys?

I feel good.

I couldn't stand that black was such a heavy part of their whole look for no good reason.

It'll take time to get used to...but the black gear despite only appearing on the puck of the logo on the jerseys themselves drove me crazy for a quarter century because the weirdest shit drives me bonkers.

A succinct summation about why Rob"ert" Thomas will be one of my least favorite players in the league throughout his career regardless of who he plays for or what he does on the ice

Hornqvist has entered the chat

 

[AlphaMikeFoxtrots]

People who gave him shit for leaving need to put their heads down in shame.

Whatever malady befell his daughter, I hope shes recovered and they're all well and happy. That guy was infuriating to play against, but that's part of what makes it fun.

Jack Johnson must have some kind of amulet that allows him to dupe GMs and coaches into thinking he's an NHLer. No other explanation. Dude's sucked for a decade-plus. Blows my mind how he's still in the league.

Brian Burke going to Brian Burke

 

[Gurglesons]

I really hope the Caps get the shit kicked out of them tonight.

I think Buffalo's intros were cringe-worthy.

Can't be worse than the Washington dudes talking about how Samsonov is going to be like Patrick Roy or Cam Ward and Chara is the biggest signing by any team in the off season.

Go Sabres

Tage Thompson on the top line for Buf. Interesting.
