Around the NHL — Episode XLXVII

[GCK]

pretty funny with all the hype about bedard, celebrini might be better than him

It’s a Toewes vs Kane debate

Kastelic should be our 4th line C, he does almost everything we need from a 4th line centre.

He is a sometimes big guy. When you are on the 4th line you need to be an everyday player. Kastelic wasn’t.

What a complete A-hole.. With a list of bad decisions that extend from the time he was made GM to the time he was let go... Accelerating the rebuild is what he choses to try to defend himself with. No mention of the back to back to back wasted 1st round picks plus the one they have to forfeit.

It's called rewriting history.

Lehner couldn't show up to camp because he's on the lam from his creditors. Vegas has every legal right to terminate his contract because of that - this was a settlement that gives Vegas the cap relief they are entitled to with Lehner breaching contract and gives Lehner some money he has no entitlement to to keep the PA happy.

As much as I don't like Vegas, that was a classy move.

The real losers in the Tor - Mtl game are us...because one of those garbage teams had to win!

At least there was no loser point

 

[Big Muddy]

Bolts 4
Canes 1

Oh shit...buffalo has to play a pissed off Florida team tomorrow night - and they're already 0 and 3

Even he seemed to fall into our laps by accident.

And they didn't even play him the first 4-5 games, so even after they brought him in they didn't know who they had!

Even their successes were accidental.

It actually took the 9th game of the season. It seems that they didn't expect Zub to be anywhere this good... which is weird because even I talked about Zub's potential during the offseason and thought it was possible that he had Top-4 potential

f*** that's depressing lol. Especially with how incredibly mediocre Boucher is.

You mean mediocre for the AHL... We'd be ecstatic if Boucher was at least mediocre at the NHL level...

Not sure on this, although Celebrini may have some Toews in him.

I think his offensive ceiling is higher than Toews, but don't think Bedard will reach Kanes level.

 

[Icelevel]

Barbashev stone and eichel having a good start to the season.
6points in 2 games so far.

 

[bicboi64]

Kucherov with a couple of empty net goals to get a hat trick. Watch him hit 50g this season and all the critics complain about how many empty net points he has like they did last year, but in the form of goals lol

 

[Mookie McGee]

Buffalo beat by NJ, NJ beat by Toronto, Toronto beat by Montreal, Montreal beat by Boston, Boston beat by Florida, Florida beat by Ottawa.

So at this point, we're basically most of the East's daddy....

I love the transitive property.

You're right, but I'm not a fan of Gaudette or Jenik & think Kastelic could drop both.

I'll never forget his first NHL goal a couple of years ago against the Habs. Scores, and gets in a fight seconds after.

That was EPIC.
