Around the NHL 10 - 2022/23

[Guffman]

The Flames will be lucky to get into the playoffs next season.

I disagree. I would expect them to be back without it being a fluke.

Pittsburgh's fans are firing everybody, hey just because he have a bunch of aging players that doesn't guarantee you a spot in the playoffs.

This is a fantastic Breakdown of last nights events. A must watch imo.

Im pretty sure Bowness said, "Hey! They have their Goon Squad Out!"

Hextall made some questionable moves and they haven't been happy with Sullivan in awhile. Still, they should've made it, no excuses.

So who gets fired, Sullivan, Hextall, both ? or do they think they can still contend status quo.

Sullivan at a minimum. They won't throw in the towel until Crosby and Malkin decide to retire though so I expect they make some big changes this summer.

Blackhawks announce they won't be re-signing Toews.

I'd be ok signing him to a cheap 1 year deal

If he decides he still wants to play. He was essentially saying he was gonna hang it up after his latest illness but I think he wanted the send off.

I dont think he wants to go out like that. If he's feeling better my guess is he comes back for another year somewhere. He was still fairly productive this season when he played.

 

[Hobble]

If we actually do some damage these playoffs, I agree that it would be cool to sign him as some veteran depth.

Yeah, and he may not necessarily sign onto a roster for Game 1. He might want extra time to see if he's fully recovered.

Pittsburgh misses the playoffs for the first time in 16 seasons and the entire city is losing their shit. They want everyone fired and / or traded.

I think the Pens need to miss the playoffs for the next 10 years to get a dose of reality.

Spoil team with two generational talents in Lemieux and Crosby. Happy they don’t have a shot at Bedard

It would help the marketing department that's foresure.

Depends on what they do with their players one year from UFA. If they bring them all back then sure they have a shot. But if they trade them away then they would be a long shot imo.

qould toevs though?

There were pretty strong rumblings of him being traded to the Jets this past trade deadline, which would have required him to wave his full no movement clause. It didnt happen due to his health, but it sounded like he was willing to wave, so maybe?

I forgot Ron Hextall is GM of the Pens. Just seems wrong.

 

[SLAYER]

 

[DRW204]

damn. that's unfortunate. Avs will still be a tough team to play against, however was thinking he'd come back to boost their chances even more. especially since either he or Rantanen can also move to Centre which would put Compher at 3C.

 

[bustamente]

Despite the news I still have the Avs coming out of the West

 

[ps241]

Tough blow for Colorado. Landi is an important piece of the puzzle.
