Speculation: 2024-25 Roster thread

I don’t mean to alarm anyone but this team is now 19th in the league and 3 points out of a playoff spot

Hazy brought up a good point after the game: the team has done a much better job at staying out of the box. Last year we lead the league averaging 4.02 times shorthanded per game (next closest was Florida at 3.55). This year we are 10th best at just 2.76.

I think this has something to do with the meetings they had over the summer with league officials. It hasn’t helped as much as should have with the power plays in favor but the refs seem a lot less jaundiced against the Ducks now.

I’m guessing the statute of limitations just finally ran out on whatever set Bettman off those many years ago.

Three way tie (with Seattle and NYI) for 17th in the league based on points percentage, all three teams being .500 at the moment. So really only half the leagues 32 teams are off to a better start as we reach the end of the first quarter of the year ...it's amazing what a little three game streak can do for the perception of our season haha

With how our power plays look this season, maybe the refs are doing us a favor…
