  1. Moved back.. as in drafting these kids when they're 19 instead of 18? Interesting idea for sure.
  2. I was a big fan of throwing money at Stammer last time he was a UFA but I feel he's too old now. I also doubt he signs here anyway. IF he did though it would certainly improve our PP. Aside from Ovechkin he's got the deadliest one-tee from the left circle. Also gives Huberdeau passing options.
  3. Weber was not the best skater but overcame that with tenacity, a big body and that legendary slapshot. If I remember correctly he also wasn't more than average defensively until his mid 20s. Which helps perpetuate the idea that defensive instincts can be taught later on, but being gifted in other areas cannot. Man I miss Weber. Fun guy to watch.
  4. That is an awful trade proposal. I dont even know where to begin on this one so I'll just leave it at that lol.
  5. Better, yeah. Not by much though. I think we are stuck with Huberdeau for awhile and we're going to have to hope he pulls a Jeff Skinner and snaps himself out of whatever it is thats dogging him mentally. He seemed a lot more at ease when 2024 hit. I just hope he builds on that in the new season.
  6. I take draft comparables with a grain of salt. Hell, Yakupov was compared to Pavel Bure back in 2012 and we all know how that turned out.
  7. Just the fact he played the year in the K as a 17 year old is impressive on its own. Thats a men's league
  8. Conroy is an intelligent man for sure. He doesn't say things that could blow up in his face almost immediately like other GMs we have had *cough* Feaster *cough*
  9. I felt the same about the skating comment. Mobility is so important in today's NHL I think it is of utmost importance to get someone who is at least a "good" skater already. Hard pass.
  10. As much as I try to follow all Canadian teams in the playoffs I cant STAND the constant fawning over McDavid. Id be lucky to last a period watching an Oilers game.
  11. I agree. As I've said before I think Honzek will be fine. Hes what 19/20? Just needs time
  12. We had the vezina runner up in net when we opened the series against Edmonton 9-6 in 2022
  13. They've probably been healthy the whole time tbh.. lol
  14. Stars in 7 Avalanche in 6 Canucks in 6 Kings in 4 (one can hope on this one. Realistically though I think Edmonton takes it in 6 or 7)
  15. Tampa in 6 Toronto in 7 Rangers in 5 Canes in 7 (This last one is the one I'm least sure about. The Islanders have proven to be sneaky good in the playoffs in recent memory. Canes are a great team though)
  16. Great tomato gardening where I'm at. Beeeaautiful San Marzano. I dont do it myself but have a friend who hooks me up with a bunch of tomatoes and jarred sauce every year because she and her family have such a big harvest 😁
  17. They are almost certainly going to have to deal Whitecloud this offseason. Add to that Pietro is 34. I could very easily see Vegas being a non-playoff team in 2026.
  18. Yeeee! Manifest that Satoshi Nakamoto!
  19. Jokes aside. Iginla has looked pretty dynamic in the O-zone so far. 47 goals in his first full regular season too. I'm starting to dig the idea of potentially drafting him.
  20. Hes definitely a scorer which is something we lack
  21. I think Honzek will be fine. At worst he will be a Backlund replacement imo
  22. I know this is a day late but his glove save on Kyle Connor was a tremendous display of patience and athleticism. You can definitely the qualities thats made him a special goaltender so far.
  23. Nothing to add to this. I agree wholeheartedly. Shilly is well deserving.
  24. Only about half the players came to play in this one. Kadri line was really good. You can just see the fire in Kuzmenko to get more after he pots the first one. Liked Pachal and Kylington for the most part.
