Around the League - 2023/24

He had an impressive period. Great entry and pass to Fiala for that first goal and an absolute laser beam on that goal

I tuned in about two minutes before his goal, but I've been a fan of kempe quite awhile

Yup great player would fit in on the Avs like a glove.

Absolutely

Carolina should be trying to get Juuse Saros out of Nashville. They would be a legit threat for the Cup with legitimate goaltending.

Same as the Avs

Never been the issue despite their revolving door of goalies.

If they could learn how to score in the playoffs, they'll go far.

Great game in LA tonight. Two good teams.

Something to note in the never ending discussion of "Why is Carolina not good enough": Aho is about to catch Rantanen in points.

He has always been great in the regular season. It's the playoffs where he disappears.

A caveat to that: in order to do that he had to get 11 points in his last 3 games.

I bet 100 bucks on Toronto last night and lost.

Edit: delete wrong thread.

 

[henchman21]

Why though? I do remember you saying that he was a horrible coach when they hired him.

I hate his style of play, I hate his attitude, I hate how he coddles ‘buddies’ and scorns independent players. He’s showing signs he learned from his mistakes, but I need more of a sample size.

I think they need more than that.

I think they need more than that.

A high end center?

 

[dahrougem2]

A high end center?

Scorers in general. When Aho gets shut down in the playoffs and Svechnikov gets his annual injury, who on Carolina will score? They needed Jordan Martinook to go nuts last season in the playoffs - that isn't happening ever again.

They have SO many guys who skate and check well but nobody who can break a game open.

I like Poulin

All I want is Roy to coach the Sens.

 

[henchman21]

Yeah I like seeing Poulin getting another job. Really smart hockey guy.

 

[sethro109]

They finally had enough.

I don't think anyone will risk picking him up at 3.55.

Carolina might make a move, especially if they think their organisation can redeem him like Avs did Prosvetov. Raanta was called up and got the win, but it was still pretty dicey with some of the goals he allowed.

Carolina hates paying for goaltending so unless Toronto is retaining half there's not a chance it happens. I wouldn't really put a whole lot on Samsonov turning his game around either. He's always been this roller coaster of a goalie which is why the Caps moved on. If the Canes are making a goalie move it has to be a good one with not much gambling involved. Samsonov is quite the gamble.
