Lol at Broberg lighting it up.

I'm thinking Edmonton is going to talk themselves into Binnington at some point this season.

Stamkos driving off a cliff once he didn’t have Kucherov basically single-handedly floating his production was the most predictable thing ever.

0 points in 4 games.

Everyone made such a big deal that BriseBois snubbed him. Maybe after seeing him play for years, he recognized Stamkos just wasn't worth 8M when Guentzel was available.

Buffalo is now 1-4-1. I mean how do they do it, year after year.? There's a lot of talent on this team. But something is missing.

Don't say that. Broberg lighting it up and Soderstrom playing in Sweden is going to trigger some people here.

 

[rypper]

Calgary will fall back to earth soon.

Tampa went from Stamkos and Sergechev who make a combined 16.5 million to Guenztel, Moser and McDonagh who make just above 19mil.

Their cup window is solidly slammed shut if they re-sign Stamkos and double down on that Sergechev contract. Love how that franchise operates.

 

[Peen]

Moser passed my eye test pretty w flying colors when we played them. Sergachev has failed it miserably recently

Wouldn't doubt it. Hofer has been just as good the last 12 months (perhaps better). At 24, he should be the guy between the pipes given where the team is in terms of build.

i've been calling this for like 3 years - it's bound to happen sooner or later

 

[BenningHurtsMySoul]

Makar is off to another ridiculous start. 1 goal 7 assists in 4 games, and Colorado doesn't even have a win.

Stamkos driving off a cliff once he didn’t have Kucherov basically single-handedly floating his production was the most predictable thing ever.

One of the biggest "what ifs" in modern hockey is if Stamkos didn't break his leg right as he was entering his prime years. That took away about 20% of his speed and reduced him to a PP merchant.

60 goal Stamkos was absolutely terrifying and arguably a better goal scorer than Ovechkin during the same period.

And they pick up the 28 year old version of Stamkos in Jake Guentzel effectively for free. That is excellent roster management.

What I don't get for guys who are 34/35 and have won championships and have homes and stuff settled, especially guys who have earned like 90MM+ already, why not just take the cut and keep the good vibes going?

 

[Just A Bit Outside]

Tampa are run like a machine.

I said at the time, acquiring Moser was a steal and will continue to feel that way.

Better to play with either Faulk/Parayko on your left side than play with Nurse on your offside.
