Tanev must not have been as coveted as people made it seem or the flames would have milked this until the deadline
Am I the only one who’s deeply
Concerned that Cmac is expecting his big deadline acquisition to be junk and nukes return? Cause it really feels like it.

Avs are 6-1 against Dallas the last two years since they hired DeBoer.
Head to head save % is .904 for the Avs and .905 for the Stars.

It should mean everything, because as good as teams have to be you also need extreme luck with health. If you aren't healthy, chances are you aren't winning your matchup let alone the Stanley Cup. Tampa Bay making it to the Finals in 2022 largely without Point doesn't mean all the other cases of teams losing due to big time injuries being suffered gets thrown out the window.With the greatest respect, since you're a great poster, but that 'if they are healthy' thing doesn't mean much to me...first, nobody is healthy in the playoffs. Injuries should be expected. Second, the Avs need quality forward depth precisely to cushion for that. The possibility of losing a Nuke-type forward should not doom the Avs' cup run in the first run as it did last year -- not when the stakes are so high and the window is so small. Look at Tampa -- they made it to the freaking finals against us in 2022 with Point only playing 9 playoff games.
I am afraid I only read new posts and therefore shan't be responding
It also wasn't just Nichushkin. Josh Manson wasn't healthy at all, and then they lose Cale Makar for a game.
Nothing went right for Colorado last season in the playoffs and it still went 7 (and the Avs dominated and should have won).
No health, no advancing.

Yeah, it seems like NJ is throwing in the towel on this season. Wouldn't be shocked to see Toffoli and Nosek moved, maybe Miller and Smith, too.
Also think we see Ruff fired the day after the season ends.

I did not know Caleb Jones was the son of Seth Jones, also the brother of Popeye Jones who’s the father of Seth Jones
This is worth firing LMAO
CRAZY. Before the season New Jersey fans expected them to challenge for the CUP.. Out of playofffs now. Feels like the Avalanche with Roy vs Wild..

Because they retained? I think they have all of the Dougie Hamilton LTIR space to work with, so why not buy a draft pick if ownership is on board?

NJ missing the playoffs would be the biggest surprise this year.
I thought they were too unexperienced in the playoffs to win the cup but never thought they'd miss the playoffs.

They are adding salary without getting any player back all for a 4th round pick, plus rumours Toffoli could be on the move. Then there's the failed Markstrom trade
Seems like a team throwing in the towel.
They willl be good, just like Avalanche, they have to suffer few years before success.
How can I apply for this job? The best job in the world. You never have to do anything and make few million a year.

And I'm sure Calgary felt confident matching up against us in 18-19 after smoking us in the RS series.

Fitz should arguably be the first one out. His work in net should be fireable
