Around the NHL Thread - Found the Missing #16

I'm hoping the Sharks lose tonight so the Flames can clinch 1st in the division before the Flames meet the Sharks in tomorrow night's game as I just don't know how the Sharks are going to play it on Sunday... play to win or play to hurt someone?

Win tonight, clinch 2nd place, then scratch a key forward that needs a night off tomorrow and let Haley play 20 minutes.
Who cares if he gets suspended as long as messages get sent. Sharks already know they can beat Calgary, now it's time to beat some of them up.

I mean, if they want suspended players and a first round exit, that's a great way to go. Vegas would be very happy to advance so easily through rounds 1 AND 2 because of that.

The Sharks are not going to get pass LV

I wouldnt be too worry about their stupid fans

 

[Janks]

2-0 currently for Montreal in the 3rd over the Jets

 

[Mobiandi]

Sens are beating the Leafs again

 

[super6646]

And that’s one. Go knights go!!!

 

[super6646]

I know the sharks won, but the oilers being spanked is a good consolation prize. Bye bye any chance of playoffs.

 

[King In The North]

Lol Drai was trying to get chippy with Sam Steel.

Ffs Dallas

 

[crackdown44]

Blues are going to win the central

Ffs Dallas

Dallas is most likely to regress next season.

Their offense is ass. Unfortunately, they have the best goalie tandem in the league and we can’t beat them.

While Bishop has a track record, Khudobin doesn't. Also Bishop has injury concerns and the Stars definitely do not play a defensive system.

I could see them making a big splash at the draft or in free agency. Heiskanen is going to be a year better as well. But yeah, currently they live or die by Bishop

 

[Johnny Hoxville]

Dallas also I believe has Spezza coming off the books, so they will add another player.

THIS. His 7M or whatever it is coming off the books at the end of this year, so that's money for a good piece, whether it be by trade or potential FA.

 

[Johnny Hoxville]

If Kesler retires. The Ducks should lock Spezza up to a huge contract. He will fix their problems.

I think Michael Stone would too. Maybe Gibson for Stone straight up

They've had strong goaltending but I don't agree.

Jamie Benn is having an awful year. He'll probably be PPG again last year.
Spezza and Zuccarello are UFA, so they'll have cap space to bolster their middle six.
Heiskanen with either plateau (he's already a #1) or get better (scary).
Their coach will have another year of experience in the league.

100 Years ago the Cup Winner was? Few will Know the surprising answer.

 

[Turning Mangiapanese]

Yes, I believe so. Don’t know what they were expecting, every gm knows chiasson is flash in the pan this year. Honestly, even if it was a 3rd or 4th rounder, they should’ve sold. The fact they did nothing tells me just how much they are committed to a proper rebuild (hint, try to sign a few middle six forwards and 3rd pairing dman thinking they are close to the promise-land). Gonna be an interesting offseason for sure.

I think not moving Chiasson for a meh pick was a good move by the Oilers regime for once. As vanilla as he is, he has proven that he can keep up with McDavid and Draisaitl unlike pretty much anybody else on their sad sack roster. If they can re-sign him for something like $3M that's not too bad. Not sure if they the cap space for even that though...

 

[King In The North]

Sounds like Adam Fox won't sign with Carolina.

I haven't looked but I'll take a guess at Ottawa. Amirite?

Edit: I looked. I was wrong.
