OT: Around the NHL - Currently serving Pasta

That roster should win a cup, but won't.

Maybe Weber can retire and give Nashville a 23M cap hit to deal with and they are forced to trade players to our team like Ekholm and Josi for pennies on the dollar.

Josi-Letang
Ekholm-Marino
Dumo-Riikola (Sorry, I mean TROTman)

It's a whole bunch of "meh" up front with the Preds. Forsberg is their only game-breaking forward. Even Duchene, while he can score, doesn't create offence like elite players do. They only time they've gone far (i.e., past the second round) is when the entire team got hot at the same time. Even though they made to the SCF that year, they didn't have enough guys who could deliver the knock out punch (e.g., Sid, Geno, Kessel, Jake).

Plus, Laviolette's system might be stale.

The Flyers have been annoying. Keep winning.

Even so. Toronto losing actually helps - in regulation at least.

NYI CAR CBJ lost in regs tonight so that is good news.

Should have accepted the trade to Minny for Zucker mr Kessel sir. Imagine a Zucker-Malkin-Rust line. Speed and defensivly responsible.

 

[Andy99]

Bonino with a terrible penalty with like 3 min left in tied game to give TB a PP...he would be totally roasted here...inexcusable

 

[Turin]

I don’t even think they really miss him on the powerplay specifically, just a right handed shot. Also they’ve not been healthy enough to even develop a new good powerplay. I love Phil, but he looks like he’ll be out of the league by 2021.

 

[Andy99]

I hate the Caps....

also Tanner Vanilla Pearson has more goals that all but three Penguins...and Derek Grant, Carter Rowney and Sundqvist before injury also would be topping the goal list here compared to our bottom six...sad...

 

[JimmyTwoTimes]

Karlson with 40 pts now in 28 games. As a dman.


Wow

And not Erik.

Jordan Stall. Carl Alzner. Patrick Hornquist. You gotta earn getting your name spelled/pronounced right.

And for the 90s group....when Jeramar Jaguar came out and dominated the league

I know what you mean but then again we get results from higher end players that other teams dont. Especially certain dmen we changed over the years. Dupuis. Cooke. Talbot. Guerin/Recchi/Gonchar...when they were older. Same as Fedotenko, Sykora, Satan

Imagine the Oilers trying to get anything out of any of them. Itd still be just Drai and McD on same line with the other 10 forwards skating around blindfolded and ending up ruining their development. They didnt care about Pulijujarvi. And Yaimmamoto is next

That FO makes no sense.

Doess McD plan on staying in edmonton?

I mean, at 12.5mil per, he will be there until there is a major league shattering blockbuster style trade where he is moved to become the new face-of-the-franchise player. Posters here know which teams would be in a position to make that kind of move and I'm not one of them.

I mean, does he plan on staying there past 5 years at least.

I'd feel really bad for Minnesota and Guerin if that trade went through. Zucker's really good and he's having a good year, they would have downgraded on Zucker if that trade would have gone through.

I'd laugh.

Pearson also has a few empty meters. But yea, again, the Pens injuries are sad.

 

[BHD]

Dan Rosen’s latest article only reaffirms how flawed the selection process is for the ASG. He had to leave a player like Barkov off to make room for a player from Detroit. Yes, Detroit...

2 goals in the 1st against the Kings now.

Compared to the new stars, it’s weird to think how “old school” Sid and Geno are already. They both got dirty and physical all the time and both dealt with way more dirty stuff. Just came to my head watching Toronto. Their stars are so emotionless compared to guys like Crosby and Malkin. Even McDavid is a bit more cerebral, attracts less attention in that way.

They both play with passion and heart...we won’t know how lucky we were to watch them until they’re gone...
