Biggest thing for this: Largest audience for 18-49 year olds on cable that day. This is a way to grow the game and get a new audience.
Or to lose that audience depending on what you think of the all-star weekend

I think Canes are exhausted on a B2B after a huge game against the Leafs. Getting whacked by the Sens. Still half a game left tho
I've always liked him and saw why he was targeted. We just really have no clue what we're doing it seemsBrett Howden with another snipe (8).
Points in 4 straight games.
If it's a young forward, chances are we're gonna ruin him lol.
Absolutely not the wish you want to make. There is no easy out whatsoever in the East. Every other team but NYR is thinking that about NYR though.Caps suck.
they’re a first round bye for who ever is lucky enough to draw them.

pretty sure that is 80% of our failing as a team. Glad Nils is down. I wish Laf and Kakko could get time in the AHL. Byfield got lots of time to marinate down there (although not sure if it really helped him)Howden should've spent a year or 2 in the AHL thats pretty clear. I dont envy the situation he was put in here tho; NYR traded their Captain for him and he was the most hated player on social media for almost his entire tenure here, no wonder his confidence was shot.
He is on pace for 40 points over 82 games. It's ridiculous how terrible we have been developing young forwards. This is a big reason I don't want to resign Strome. These young kids needs to play more, even if it means losing an extra game or two this season.I've always liked him and saw why he was targeted. We just really have no clue what we're doing it seems
Penguins just seem f***ing unbeatable.
They have these seasons where they just seem to win every game.
Don't understand it.
Got to admit I think I was upset to then see the Caps lost too. Would like to see them challenge Pens for a 2-3 spot.
I don't want a first round matchup with Pittsburgh. That's one team I don't want to be one and done against. Can't take losing to them.
Then again there's plenty of time for us to fall into a WC spot too so who knows.
I love the people that say, “enough, it had to be done” but then still harp on Buchnevich being let go lol. Like just admit why you care about one and not the other, and it has nothing to do with Tony smacking Georgie around.
Right there with you. Would rather play a tough 5-6 game series against Florida or Tampa than whatever would come out of a 1st round matchup against Pittsburgh. I still think they are going to the ECF.I don't want a first round matchup with Pittsburgh. That's one team I don't want to be one and done against. Can't take losing to them.
