Thank-you, Flower!
Congrats, ladies and gents. Here’s to some more payback against Buffalo on Tuesday. Get that home crowd pumping it up!

Well I woke up to a honk, and yay we won. But judging from the posts not getting up before 6am to watch the game was a good call.

If I had that as a poster, I'd put it up over the bed...and Mrs. Jones would freak...freak at the Eak!

I think that is more scary than the scary looking Eakimeter ones lol

It looks like one of those composite photos the police put together from a witness description.

Could this be Eakin's breakout year like Karlsson?

Probably not but if he can chip in around 40 points and Karlsson finds his rhythm again then we can have three really solid lines when everyone is healthy.

And then if Schmidt can come back and push others down to their proper pairings (adding Coburn/McQuaid for a 3rd could help too)

If we get going offensively as a unit. Maybe I'm just hoping Golden Knights sky isn't falling.

The sky isn't falling. It's a long season. However, we do need to acquire a quality defenseman at some point. Schmidt returning isn't enough to fix the issues back there.

Agreed. Although Schmidt being back will be a big boost, we're still short a top 4 stay at home D to play with Miller IMO. Engelland is nothing more than a #6 at this point being forced to play a role he's not suited for.

Theodore Schmidt
McNabb Miller

Theodore Schmidt
McNabb Miller

Ideally for me it would look like this-

McNabb-Schmidt
_____-Miller
Theo-Engelland/Holden

I don't trust Theo defensively matching up against #1 lines on a nightly basis.

That's how I feel about Miller but I don't see it with Theodore. He earned my trust in the playoffs, and he's just going to get better.

How has hyka looked since being recalled

How has hyka looked since being recalled

He's worked his butt off on both ends, a few high danger chances. I love to watch him play.
