Around the League 2024-25 season

[Omni Owl]

With 4 straight losses, Nashville is now dead last in the entire NHL

Goal Differential: -28 (31st)
Point Percentage: .375 (32nd)
Total Points: 20 (Tied w/ Chicago for league worst)

The team who makes the biggest spash in free agency never lives up to the hype, but I don't think anyone was expecting it to be this bad.

Preds haven't drafted a 20 goal scorer since 2014 (Fiala and Arvidsson).

I'm still trying to wrap my head around why they've been so bad, especially after having such a solid performance last year. Thought for sure Stamkos and March would make them dangerous but I was big wrong. Really glad Blucgevin didn't pursue Stamkos, that would've been such a disaster.

Any Kings fans still want to trade places with them?

I guess that loss automatically makes the Ducks a better team.

Same way their loss to OTT automatically makes the kings better

Being the third worst team in the league with no playoff appearances in the past 7 seasons is an envious position. If only the Kings were as bad as the Ducks or Sabres, two teams that are definitely guaranteed to be good at some point over the next decade.
