The Predators have signed defenseman Mattias Ekholm to a six year, $22.5 million contract.


Good deal for the Preds, he's a good all around d, who really took a big step forward last year in every area, good puck mover, solid his own end. Seems Lavvy's system is suited to him. Partnered with Ellis, who at 2M is also a good value. Josi, Weber and jones rounds them out into a very stable d.

Now if they could only get a 1C....
 
Very interesting background on Carter. He comes off as aloof, even as someone who doesn't like most people, whether that's accurate or not. I wonder how that reserved personality translates into leadership, since leadership on a sports team would include the ability to inspire and include teammates. Not a criticism of Carter, but a genuine bemusement.

I don't think he's aloof, I think ( and this is just from watching him from the time he was a 20 yr old in the AHL) he's just a very quiet private person around those he doesn't know. I'd say he's guarded. WIth his teammates, he's fine, and the coaches, staff, etc , close friends, But media, even fans in some regards, he's just not outgoing, just his nature if he doesn't know the person
 
Is it mean that while I used to avoid the Ducks feed like the plague... I now search it out specifically to hear Hayward try and homer his way through this mess?

If it's mean then I guess I'm a jerk too. They are the team that gives me the greatest satisfaction when they lose.

I really enjoyed the last Ducks game I watched.... think it was against the Wild. Half way through the 3rd Hayward started talking about moral victories.

Beautiful, just beautiful.
 
I'm as shocked and surprised as anyone at the Ducks lately, but the feed is so fun to listen to with Hayward's depression.
 
Never a dull moment in the last minute of periods for the Ducks. Amazing that this game is still scoreless.
 
Calgary's three-headed monster (now down to two heads) has a GAA of 3.89 through 9 games.
