Around the League - 2024-2025

[Blowfish]

He actually was never our property since he was never given an NHL deal here. Played for the marlies on an AHL/ECHL deal.

For a similar reason, I didn't include Dakota Joshua as he never received a contract from the leafs. Or Carter Verhaeghe who never played a game in a jersey.

Yikes the last dude hurts.

 

[Jojalu]

Yep, on this forum they have.

"Dependent" on McDavid ... just wishful thinking.

3 more for Drai last night.

Traded in package for Grabner to NYI. Seems like Toronto, NYI, and Tampa all dropped the bag with him.

Hyman said it best that not only do the Oilers have the best player in the world, they have the second player in the world in Drai.

Son of a bitch is ageless.

30 goals over his last 47 games is a 52 goal pace over 82 games.

Makes you wonder what was going on last season when he only had 8 goals after his first 43 games to start the year.

He looked like he fell off like a boxer last year but I guess he's still chugging away - the little engine that could.

He might sail to the record if he keeps going like this but I'm thinking at any moment he could drop to a fourth line novelty act overnight, and the record chase gets difficult to watch.

He only has one year on his contract after this season. I can't see a drop off that vast unless he plays for 4-5 more years.

He won't play that long.

I hope Ovie breaks Gretzky's record this season. I was never a fan of Gretzky, one of the biggest whiners in NHL history.

 

[Seath The Scaleless]

Needs 35 goals in 71 games? I say he does it.

Maybe Leonsis pulls a Vince McMahon and makes him wait until next year to generate hype and merchandise sales.

Oilers are a pretty boring product without McDavid.
Noesen is off to a good start this season.

Keefe's first western Canada trip as Devils coach goes like his first Western Canada trip here. Beat the Canucks, lose to the Flames, and than beat the Oilers.

Not surprisingly their PP has suffered without McDavid.

They beat bottom dwellers Nashville
And Calgary without him. But a solid team such as Devils
Shows you who you truly are.
