For the game, I predict a rebound, especially from McDavid and Draisaitl. They should be embarassed after last game, and they usually are very good when they are angry.
For the Rumble, they haven't announced a ton of the participants, but I could see it going one of three ways, all of which could be great.
1) Cody Rhodes wins. I actually don't think this one happens as its a bit too predictable with his return vignettes and everything.
2) Sami Zayn wins. I see Sami getting turned on by the Bloodline, but I don't see him getting the Rumble win. It might be the best storyline, but I still don't buy that they'll put Sami in a WM title match.
3) Surprise return wins it. This one feels like the direction they are wanting to go in, if the guy they want is willing to come in and do business. There is just so much pointing to it. Location - Hollywood. 2+ years of Roman Reigns claiming to be the "Tribal Chief" and "Head of the Table". I feel that this entire Bloodline angle was built to climax with a match against the only wrestling family member of Roman's that isn't in the Bloodline. It would be the biggest mainstream (positive) media they have had in years. If you smell what I'm cookin'.
We didn’t just get “goalied.” The team overall was a sloppy disjointed mess and way too many guys were taking long shifts and handing out giveaways like a Pez dispenser. I’ll be charitable and will blame the layoff but I think it’s undeserved arrogance.
This. Korpisalo kept Columbus in it, but we gave them too many chances, and blew too many of our own chances with stupid blind passes and too much selfish play.
