NHL Season Thread: TB wins and Kucherov loves beer (3 Viewers)

Oh My I Guess They Are Really Gonna Play Those Games...

Unless something has changed since yesterday in the NHL's thinking it looks like they aren't going to play them all :lmao:

For the life of me I cannot imagine they'll make the 4 Canadian playoff teams wait all those days (though perhaps they want to give the teams a couple days off since WPG-TOR is on Friday and the Oilers play Saturday.

Why make them wait?  Just let CAL/VAN play at the same time. They aren't in the playoffs, but should play so lottery is worked out correctly.

Zegras and Drysdale and two first round picks for Eichel?

Are you Cav drunk?


Zegras is Kariya with Teemu's personality. 

Drysdale's skating.....  I don't want to compare it to Scotty just yet...

The vision each has for the game is off the charts.

We get pick #1-4. Wonder who we will get.

I don't know. I'm sure they'll probably just settle for Sam Steel and Troy Terry and call it a day.

hate it all

Terry actually progressed quite a bit the last 6 weeks.  He's gone from one good game out of every six games earlier in the year to about four out of five at the end.

Comtois, Terry, Lundestrom all progressed nicely this year. Max Jones did a little bit and is going to be a solid 3rd/4th liner.

Silfverburg, Heinen, Steel did very little all year.  Silf they are saying was playing hurt from last year.

They made great trades for A.Volkov (TB) and H.Fleury (CAR) at the deadline. Volkov can skate, score and play D. They stole him from TB for nothing,

Fleury was solid every game he played. I liked Hakanpaa at the start of the season, but when he got a lot more minutes and played against #1 lines when Manson and Lindholm went down, he wore down quickly and gut burnt a ton.  Fleury was a steal IMO also.

 
Probably already posted in the thread but here's the Cap Friendly Expansion Draft Simulator for those of us out of the playoffs to have fun with.

Devils situation seems pretty clear to be honest.  Worst case is losing Bastian or Johnsson apparently.  (I don't think we expose Subban and losing Butcher or Merkley really ain't a big deal either at this point).

Hoping Fitz is able to rob ones on these teams that are screwed like the Wild :D

Parise's contract runs until 2025 - WITH a NMC?!? :lmao:

Still time to waive that (same with Suter) - I mean Seattle would be stoned to take on that contract so I imagine Guerin will be able to get those guys to do it.

i think the colorado and chicago goalers will be on the move.  also, carolina could be in play.  if mrazek is protected, nedeleckovicwiczcouz could move.  rangers appear to be exposing junk, i am hopeful they lose brett howden, i can’t watch him lumber up and down the ice ever again.

Colorado seems like that would lose Greaves most likely - possibly Compher.  They'll lock up Grubauer.

With Mrazek a UFA I think that Ned will rightly get protected by Carolina.

Depending on how the goalie options shake out I could see Seattle taking Malcolm Subban (who knows maybe this is more likely if the Devils expose PK - but I doubt that happens).

It' be a fun puzzle :)

I would expect the Rangers to lose Blackwell assuming no side deals.

Blackwell's already 28 and although his contract's cheap, he'll be an ufa at the end of the 2022 season, and I doubt Seattle is goign to want to pay him.  Howden and Gauthier would be most likely targets.  Read somewhere that Francis was around when Carolina drafted Gauthier in the 1st round so he may be the one Rangers lose.  

Seeing Rangers are interviewing Gallant.  Kinda meh on him, it seems he wears out his welcome after 2-3 years, but hey maybe Messier will bring the franchise back to glory

I want nothing to do with Messier. Gallant would be my first choice and Bob Hartley is my number 2.

Ah, Fleury is Mike Commodore with brown hair.

 
yikes

@shireyirving: Here are the expected goal values of each Islanders goal today, per Evolving Hockey:

Palmieri (2.4%)
Pageau (2.2%)
Nelson (3.2%)
Palmieri (5.8%)

 
@charlieo_conn: This TBL-FLA series is going to rule. These teams are absolutely flying, and I can't see Quenneville asking Florida to slow it down. So as long as Cooper is OK with this series staying run-and-gun because he figures his team is more talented, this is gonna be a blast to watch.
