I am surprised that they move to SLC. I thought Houston would be the destination. I guess Bettman is keeping Houston for an expension team in a near future.
grab some Maudite you crazy bastards I'm in!I'm in lol
Imagine being wholeheartedly convinced that Winnipeg is a better market than Quebec city.It was far worse when the Nords came in the NHL when they were nothing and the Habs were still a dynasty back then. Now people spend a lot more and they would devour everything that would be the Nords, they would make a fortune.
It would also go against what Hughes has said repeatedly yesterday -- they will go BPA, regardless of position. He added that if it happens to be a D, he would entertain a trade but it's BPA all the way. Hughes aligns with your train of thought, no sense speculating otherwise.It would be really foolish to pass up on some of these defensemen. I don't care about the depth when you have a potential star number 1D available.
Yeah. They have a good young core and have a very good coach too.yeah I fell much better at 5 than 6 or 7. I know we can possibly drop but that just how the lotto goes. we did what we needed to do and that was finish as low as possible with out completely wrecking our teams mentality and drive... which is a hard task to do... but thanks to those beautiful roadkill Coyotes winning their last game 3 years in a row this rebuild looks very promising!

The Coyotes board is cute.
They want to win the game, they don't care about 5OA or 6OA.
SLC has an owner ready to get a team now instead of trying to negotiate with Fertitta who owns the Rockets and the arena in HoustonI am surprised that they move to SLC. I thought Houston would be the destination. I guess Bettman is keeping Houston for an expension team in a near future.
I have an awful lot of goats to sacrifice in the next 2 weeks after running tankathon until we won because I'm a superstitious bastard like thatf*** this has been a great night! all the stress from all year, wondering if we can finish bottom 5? all the 1 goal games and over times... all the last minute miracles that had to happen... feels good to only have to worry about some lottery balls now
Safe to speculate that Buium is very likely to be taken among the top 4?I'm not sure if Silayev is a potential star #1 dman, I like Levshunov but he does seem like a Sergachev clone who in my books isn't exactly a star 1D either, and Dickinson's offense worries me. Buium is my favorite dman of the class. Kid just does it all and screams superstar.
I will be diving deep into different religious and taboo sacrifice shit to get any supernatural help we can in winning this thing! lmaoI have an awful lot of goats to sacrifice in the next 2 weeks after running tankathon until we won because I'm a superstitious bastard like that
I would be shocked, but crazy things have happened beforeSafe to speculate that Buium is very likely to be taken among the top 4?
Regardless, we still have a lottery placing to unfold, so who knows where they'll end up. Still, nice going into lottery day with the 5th spot.
You're making me blush bro stopIt's been a pleasure tanking with all you fine beautiful folk. You could all be ugly hideous bastards for all I know, but you're beautiful to me...and isn't that the most important thing?
Cheers

Connected? Only on account of Habs seepage, but I don't think anyone has ever shown that the clown had reliable info from any other team. There's a lot of self-aggrandizement by him and he's a giant bore whenever he's called in for his "expert" advice.Buium is who I had in mind. But, Silayev is a rare breed. If he hits on his potential he'll be dominant.
Grant seems to think Parekh and Yaremchuk are high on NHL lists. He's a clown, but a connected one.
Welp, it had to be done. Can't keep playing out of a 5,000 seat arena. Always had terrible ownership.
That team is going to be good really soon, though. What hockey fans they did have had to go through a lot of crap only to watch their team leave just as they're about to turn the corner on the ice.
In 5 years time, they'll get a new franchise and have to go through crap again as this young team is probably making noise in the Western Conference.
Good luck, Arizona. And thanks for the tanking memories.
But New Jersey won the 2nd lottery and they were holding the 5th overall initially.In 2022 we were last though?
We couldn't possibly let that stand.You're making me blush bro stop
only need an haircut and to lose some weight and he would be chaddingYou're making me blush bro stop
The Habs wont take Buium. I mean he will be gone by #5 imo and it they win the lottery and are in the top 2 they take Celebrini or Demidov.I'm not sure if Silayev is a potential star #1 dman, I like Levshunov but he does seem like a Sergachev clone who in my books isn't exactly a star 1D either, and Dickinson's offense worries me. Buium is my favorite dman of the class. Kid just does it all and screams superstar.
The Jets were revived thanks to the Thompson family, who are quite wealthy. There is no one in Quebec that I could think of that is wealthy enough to sustain an NHL franchise in Quebec City. PKP tried to make a show out of it which triggered the NHL it seems. Let's be real, I wouldn't give a team to this guy. Saputo seems uninterested. He's from Montreal, anyway. I thought Houston was the clear frontrunner, but Salt Lake has a colder climate. It might work this time, who knows? Other franchises will follow suit. Vegas won't be there for long. We all know that was a publicity stunt. Other leagues are trying there now, so the Knights will have lots of competition.Imagine being wholeheartedly convinced that Winnipeg is a better market than Quebec city.
won't SLC have similar levels of taxes, weather and anonymity?
