Good hire by VGK. They should be really good next season if they can stay relatively healthy. Injuries killed them last year.

It’s interesting that the Islanders fired trotz but none of the potential landing spots are very enticing. If I were Florida I would fire Brunette and hire Barry

We joke about Torts but for a team that hasn't played a lick of defense in years, hiring him is the easiest way to correct that.

I cannot wait for the inevitable Gritty gets on Torts' nerves and Torts explodes moment.

You'll probably only need to wait til the introductory press conference.
"Gritty, didn't you get beat up by the Philly Fanatic at the bus stop?!?"

"John, why did you take Tippett off the power play?"
"Because he stinks on the power play. I don't know why, but he does. I can put Gritty on the PP and get better results."
Slow day at work...

Anyone else going to watch Game 1 tonight because they like to cause themselves pain?

But watch intently every single one of 99 remaining games? I just can't.

People are vastly underestimating the goalie advantage Tampa Bay has. And Colorado isn't going to be able to run sprints up and down the ice against them like they could against Edmonton.

I'm interested to see how Colorado approaches Tampa when they trap
Will they be able to skate through it or will they dump it?
I still wonder how the Rangers would have fared against Colorado. Sadly, we won't know.

I like Colorado's chances, honestly. But, I think Tampa wins. I would still love the Rangers to be the team finally stops them. I'm hoping a year from now we do and we go on to win the Cup. Right now there's not another team I want to beat more in the playoffs because of 2015 and now 2022. LA is next.

Rangers needed to win G3 against TB and finish off that series in 5 if they wanted to have a chance against Colorado. Avs dont defend as well as the Bolts and we had the goalie advantage so we wouldve had a shot. Oh well.
The Rangers moment will come when they can knock off the Lightning in the playoffs. Its our destiny.

If I were writing a script for the Rangers, we'd beat Tampa and LA.

Boy look at that, point is back tonight for game 1. When I suggested he would be back if there was a game 7 mob came out to tell me he was done for the year.
Hoping to see a three peat happen this year.
