I have a feeling Thompson grabs it and runs with it.

It’ll be interesting to see the dynamic, wrt the goalie personalities.
Everyone has always loved Side Burns. He’s in the center of the room.
Thompson seems to have a chip on his shoulder (mostly re: Vegas, it seems), so I wonder how he will be regarded in the room (and DuBois, and Chychrun).
Minus Oshie minus Backstrom (no Kuz, which is fine).
Wilson, Carlson, and of course Ovechkin set the team tone. Then…Chucky, Dowd, Strome, …. And I’ve read good things about Duhaime, Roy, and Mangie in how they handle the room.
Interesting chemistry experiment.
In the end Ovy’s shadow pretty much overlords everything else …. Which isn’t a bad thing.

Yeah that backhand pass to Strome reminded me of Nicky.

Had a strong CC playoff run and now continues to play well in camp
I think this Ovi Strome Mangi line can be good. They looked good last night.

I have been very pleasantly surprised with how good Ovechkin looks.
Wild speculation: Season's gonna have its ups and downs, but an actually motivated Ovie in decent shape implies he's going for the goal record this year.

He's never let us down before! Count me in for 50 this year.

Obviously the record is a huge piece of it. But I also wonder if he feels like BMac went out and did his best to improve the team so he’s more motivated knowing there’s more talent around him this year.
Thank you. So sick of this record nonsense. Ovi is the only player that i can remember who gets accused of putting on skates for the sake of something other than just playing. If there was no more love for the game there would be no record chase. Any other 39 year old would be praised for still being effective. Ovi gets crapped on. F all the haters.
