Around the NHL 11 - 2023/24

A nice reminder that the Jets had 257 games played for 37 points last year between Gus, Axel, Stenlund, Khulman and Manalaenen.

Man was the depth bad….

Yep.

Tho several of those guys contributed in other ways on the revived PK and in overall shot suppression.

I wondered at times last season as I have in previous seasons whether the Jets strategy for their bottom 6 was purely zero-sum -- don't get scored on at all costs, whilst any scoring you might stumble into is a rare bonus.

From an article in “Huddle Up’ On How the Vegas Knights became a Billion dollar franchise.



Vegas Golden Knights Revenue (2018-2022)

2018: $180 million
2019: $167 million
2020: $156 million
2021: $76 million (COVID)
2022: $198 million


Vegas Golden Knights Operating Income (2018-2022)

2018: $53 million
2019: $33 million
2020: $14 million
2021: –$38 million (COVID)
2022: $64 million

And with the team’s valuation increasing from $500 million to $965 million over its first six seasons, it will most certainly push past $1 billion in 2023 after a record-breaking Stanley Cup-winning season.

Vegas Golden Knights Forbes Valuation

2017: $500 million
2018: $575 million
2019: $580 million
2020: $570 million
2021: $710 million
2022: $965 million

Nice hair tho on one of those depth guys :sarcasm:
 
Stenlund was crazy overrated in this regard. Maenalanen however was surprisingly good at it.
But RHS faceoffs. Who but Stenny can step out with a minute left and a goal down and steal that all-important DZ draw and then....?

RHS faceoffs are to Bowness as "zone time" was to PoMo.

The one issue is that Vilardi seems to have excelled once he was moved from Centre to Wing in LA... pretty sure our Cs this season are Scheif, Names, Lowry, Kupari

I think Names as probably the last option we go with. He's a versatile guy but he just seems to play better in the bottom 6 at this point in his career. So I think we exhaust every option before we default to him to lead our top 6.

Ottawa Senators had 90% of the team sold for $1B.

So, how did Vegas achieve that in 6 years? Well, seems like just a general lift of NHL franchise value.

So according to Cap Friendly the Leafs are $8.8M over the cap as of today. How the hell do they get to cap compliance by the season start? Besides Murray I can’t think of any obvious candidates. Are Leafs going to have to trade away high draft picks for teams to take their cap dumps? I sure hope so.

They're only $3.2M over the cap when Muzzin goes back on IR.
