Around the NHL - (Off-season edition)

[DuckTech]

Is this NHL trying to spread games out this season?

Caps start at 3pm PST
We start at 7:15
Kings start at 8
Looks like almost every hours has x:15 and x:45 starts.

I think they are doing it today since all 32 teams are in play tonight.

Today is “Frozen Frenzy,” where the goal is for every team to play. I don’t think this is a season-long thing or anything. Just for today, lots of games to watch.

So what is really up with the preds? I couldn't believe my eyes. 0-5 wtf

Perhaps signing overpriced, older UFA’s isn’t the key to success.

Very well perhaps lol

Put me in the camp that we’re not going to finish with a better record than the preds or avs, and just like the oilers last season.. their talent will pull them up eventually.

watching the caps-flyers and drysdale looks terrible defensively

it'd be hilarious if both he and cutter and up busting

What the f*** happened to Drysdale? Ducks fans I need your opinion on this.

ducks rushed his development + injuries

I am reading the Flyers board and they pretty much hate him. It’s crazy to see since he seemed like such a competent OFD with a great shot. He was considered to have the best shot in 2020 draft

he's a great skater but nothing else about him really stood out to me. he's undersized, terrible defensively, and his shot isn't great at all

but hard to call him a bust already given how much time he's missed with injuries. if it makes flyers fans feel any better, gauthier hasn't done shit so far this season either

Deleted. Wrong thread.

I think Drysdale has very good skating...and that's it. His shot is ok, his compete is ok, but he's small and he is low in the hockey IQ department, which explains why Verbeek was fine trading him. He just doesn't seem to be in the right places or make the right plays.

 

[Mr Rogers]

Drysdale with 2 PP assists (both secondaries) today, but neither of them were terribly impressive plays. Still cool to see him get on the board tho.

zach hyman has 0 pts in 7 games so far this season
