1 period in, and already probably the save of the year. 2-0 Devils.

A save they never would have gotten last season.

If @The Kingslayer would stop selecting Sabres for his fantasy team, all would be right in the world. But nnnnooooooooo....

I don't think Lehner's situation compares to Nuke's very much. This happened because Lehner only has one year left on his deal. The length of Nuke's remaining contract is the real issue. It's one thing to make the last year of a deal disappear, it's another thing to void a contract that lasts until 2030.

4.5m isn't really a ton of money to most team owners. Nuke is owed a LOT more than that, enough to make even Kroenke notice. There's no way he's going to pay Nuke 36m cash just to get some cap relief.

In all seriousness, I feel like they'll have the defense, they'll probably have at least decent goaltending if they stay healthy, but the scoring won't be there. I look at their projected lineup and I don't really see one true sniper or pure goal scorer in the mix. There are some really good two-way guys, and to be sure their centers and a couple defensemen can put it in the net, but I've noticed in a couple of their preseason games that they're deluging the opposition with shots, and barely anything is going in. Maybe it's just a preseason thing but that's a concern for me if I'm a Swords fan.

Part of the downside of losing both Skinner and Olofsson in the same offseason is that they haven't necessarily replaced the scoring from those two, unless Peterka and Quinn are set for breakout seasons.

I drafted my fantasy team last night. No plan, as always. Just seat of my pants. A full 1/3 of my team is Ottawa/NJ/Buffalo. 3 teams I wish to have success this season. Doubly so now. Or at least spam points.

Byram played 24:52 minutes, that's 2 min more than Dahlin, 1:30 more than Powers and significantly more than any other player on both teams.

I haven't followed the Red Wings preseason in any way (because why the f*** would I lol), has he been bad still and this is the result? I guess I should not speculate on such matters...

Videotron Center in Quebec city tonight for a preseason game between the Bruins and Kings (don't ask me why these 2 teams because I have no clue)

I miss when stadiums had cool names, or were named after important people, instead of corporate sponsors.
