Zads was a presence and a deterrent when he was on the ice for us.

Look at him wrong and he has no problems coming over to introduce himself usually in the form of glove to the face.

He’s really cocky and sure of his abilities. Saw it in Calgary and saw in Vancouver.

Can’t really comment on what’s going on bean town.

Would welcome him back easy.

Have to laugh reading the data on Oilers and their lack of speed.

25 Mcloed 4-1-5 +3
28 Foegele 4-1-5 +6
23 Holloway 4-1-5 0
23 Broberg 2-7-9 +6
29 Ceci 0-2-2 -4
28 Desharnais 0-1-1 -1
= 14-13-27 +10

32 Skinner 2-3-5 -1
31 Arvidsson 1-3-4 0
34 Henrique 1-0-1 -5
23 Podkolzin 0-2-2 -4
30 Stecher 0-0-0 -1
24 Emberson 0-0-0 -3
= 4-8-12 -14

Worse production, older and slower

Well done dirt bags

Very early on obviously, but seems to me that Nashville, Boston the Islanders, and Colorado were all playoff teams last season--but in world of trouble so far this season.

Injuries have been part of the problem; but all these squads are just really bad defensively at the moment. I'm beginning to think that in the East, we're going to see a dramatically different playoff situation by next spring.

Boston and Colorado will be fine and I'll be stunned if either misses the playoffs.

NYI and Nashville are old, slow, mediocre teams and yeah, both are in trouble.

Boston is a team i could see being very interested in Pettersson if things continue to go sideways here.

I'm sure they would be but unless McAvoy is coming back the other way (and they won't be moving him) there is basically zilch there either in terms of mid-20s assets of value that could help us now nor is there anything in their system. They simply wouldn't be able to put together a package.

A team like Columbus, on the other hand, literally has about 12-15 assets that we would have significant interest in. And the cap space to do a deal.

Pretty much only appealing trade chip the Bruins have is Mason Lohrei and I have no read on if he's actually any good.
