We've got enough guys fighting for spots that our forwards and d-men will perform better this year.

 

[McDrai]

We should get better puck moving from the back end. And by back end I mean Mike Smith.

Better coaching. better management, better depth, better Pk, better bottom 6, better D, Neal in Lucic out.

May not make the playoffs but the team should be - ahem - visually better.....

This might be the first season people actually understand what the hell that means and agree with it.

1920 hey? Einstein was just working out his theory of relativity which would eventually explain why McDavid does not appear to age while moving at light speed.

 

[Cloned]

I’m planning a gathering at the local speakeasy right now.

 

[guymez]

Its going to take a little time but I am looking forward to seeing the team execute the new systems.
I think thats going to be a significant difference maker.

Also looking forward to seeing Burdasov play.

I think things are finally going to head in the right direction. Holland being hired was smart. He's not a dolt like Chiarelli. Very interested a year from now when more money gets freed up and what he does with it.

I always try to be positive because this is suppose to be fun. But they have McDavid and that is enough reason for me to watch. He's such a special player.

7 more years of Connor freaking McDavid

 

[LaGu]

I am more or less always positive, to many other things to worry about in life to be down over hockey.

Hoping for a good season with much more impact from the bottom 6 and decent goalkeeping. Not too worried about the top 6, but that is thanks to McDavid and Draisaitl alone. D could be better, could be worse. If there are no injuries to our top 3 Ds I like our chances to be in the race for playoffs.

I am trying guys. But in the back of my mind i am thinking, for the love of god, if Talbot has a Vezina worthy season my brain might not be able to take it.

1920? Hey Kenny.

I LIKE GOLF!

Based on how his preseason's gone, that's not a concern

The Ottawa Senators won the Stanley cup in 1920

 

[NeverForget06]

We actually acquired enough bottom 6 talent to fill out a roster, which is much different from our usual plan of throwing the youngins to the wolves and hoping for the best

The Edmonton Eskimos were a Canadian amateur and later professional men's ice hockey team that existed from 1911 to 1927. The Eskimos played for the Stanley Cup against the Ottawa Senators in 1923. The Eskimos defeated the Regina Capitals to win the 1923 WCHL playoffs. They were also the 1923 regular league champions. The Eskimos came in second in the 1922 and 1926 WCHL playoffs.

The socks are something...makes it look like the team was partially dressed in drag...lol

Positivity huh? Our PK will not be crap. Our depth forwards won't be as bad. One of the two goalies will play well.

This GIF makes me feel very positive. Thanks!
