Penguins looking rough in game one. Rags are a top team though.

Pens roster is among the thinnest on W in the league and might have 2 defensive D at most. Dubas's best move this season was somehow convincing Sid to stay.

Crosby is just playing his career out. Guy has 3 cups and probably just wants one more crack at the Olympics to end his career.

At least with the extension, there won't be talk about him moving on from Pitt. He's content.
But, it's a bummer that we won't see him in the PO before he retires.

Oilers Stink in the first half, Oilers fire their Coach, and Oilers go on a run…… rinse and repeat every year

Patrick Kane's career success is inextricably linked to the Hawks drafting Toews, Seabrook and Keith. It remains an open question as to whether this current version of the Hawks can bring together a similar caliber of talent. If not, Bedard will be in tough to even come close to Kane's accolades.

That said, it's my recollection that Bedard wasn't really being compared with Crosby or McDavid, that he was more of the next step down - McKinnon, Matthews.

Bedard is an exceptional status player who had better PPG than Mcdavid in junior and international play on worse teams. And he was being compared to Crosby and McDavid. Because he's at that level.
