It's free if you subscribe to the free shipping Amazon Prime

Shipping is often free even without a prime subscription, it’s kind of funny. It’s 120 bucks a year but what you actually get vs. What anybody gets is not as much as you think

its unfair to always keep waiting for McDrai to carry us from mediocrity to the playoffs every year. They also arent getting younger. at some point in thier careers these guys will be worn out. We have no legitimate young depth.

That's the MO of this team. Only time in the last 5 seasons they've had a genuinely good start would be one year with Tippett which is now like 4 years ago. Woody's second year they started off 7-3, but were a mediocre 10-10 at game 20, not great.

Team has to play at an extremely high level to make up for wishy washy goaltending that doesn't give them much margin for error. At the start of a season when things are naturally not as in sync, that's likely not good enough.

It's actually kinda amazing they are 6-6-1, worst shooting percentage in the league, bottom 5 PP, bottom 3 PK, bottom 5 offense, both goalies with sub .890 save percentage, McDavid not even in the lineup for several of those games. They're playing about as poor as they can.

With poor play and stats like this, i think making the playoffs is not even realistic.

They were worse a year ago and still finished with their usual 104 points.

This is becoming routine here frankly. They are just slow starters, is what it is.

This time last year, I'd have killed to have 6 wins instead of 2.

I thought 2 shots on goal from one of the supposed top 5 players in the game was a safe addition to my parlay. Zero shots on goal for Draisaitl tonight.
