I'd rather the teams ahead of us lose and the teams behind us win, personally.1.5/4 ain’t bad
I feel like I'm being trolled by a Habs fan posting Habs fun facts and stats constantly on the Sens forum.
We all discuss the other hockey teams, yes. You on the other hand seem to focus on the Habs.. all the time. I guess it's childish to notice someone on the Sens forum always posting about the Habs?Rangers, Canadiens, Wings, Jackets... only like the jackets for that last spot but losing 4 in a row hurts badly.
I find that we talk about them as much as the Leafs, Wings, etc... although I think people end up talking the most about Toronto because of the geographical rivalry (which is Montreal for me, duh)
If someone asks a question about hockey and I have a good idea of what to answer, I will answer. I am here to talk about hockey and I assume I am discussing with adults... which is frankly not clear with some.
I used to know every single NHL player and most prospects, I am not just a ONE team fan, I am a hockey fan. If some can't deal with it, so be it. If you can't deal with it, I suggest you don't read threads where people talk about other NHL teams. This thread is like an extension of the Around the NHL thread.

I think we did really good in this trade but their rebuild is going extremely well though

Damn and they have an extra 1st and an extra 2nd in the next 2 drafts.
Pretty much this. Mods can we get a clean up of all the clogging up that's happening?First we had the Habs posts. Then we had the posts complaining about the Habs posts. Now we also have the posts defending against the complaints about the Habs posts.
Who cares. You’re all just tripling the volume of Habs posts at this point!

Maybe start a thread about the states of rebuilds in comparison to ours?I'll try to ignore but it's frankly annoying to get gaslighted/trolled that often. My goal is to talk about hockey with other adults but maybe it's not as simple as it sounds![]()

Honestly I actually like hearing people’s thoughts about where other rebuilds are at, maybe if it’s contained in one place people will be less annoyed.
I was half joking anyways so by all means, feel free to continue here!
That would be an interesting thread. I feel that our own window of... maybe not contention necessarily but making it to the playoffs and hoping for more is NOW and the next couple of years. Staios bringing in Jensen and Perron gave this team this year and next, and then the Ullmark signing, the Cozens and Zetterlund deals may have extended and strengthened the window by another couple of years, which was unthinkable to me just a couple of months ago.Maybe start a thread about the states of rebuilds in comparison to ours?

Yes, the 2 teams that are ahead of us (Toronto, Tampa) both won, while 2 teams chasing us (Columbus & Boston) both lost. So, we created a little more separation from teams below us, but didn’t close the gap against division rivals ahead of us in the standings.Buffalo 3 Boston 2 OT FINAL
NJD 2 Columbus 1 FINAL
Philly 0 Tampa 2 FINAL
Calgary 2 Toronto 6 FINAL
Yes, its (rebuilds, and how ours compares to others) an interesting topic. The other thing of importance is the Brady factor.That would be an interesting thread.

So our rebuild is complete: our core is in their prime or about to get there, all the big pieces are signed till 2027-28 (with the smaller pieces Zub, Amadio and Batherson FAs a year earlier), and there's just nobody on the prospect horizon other than Yak. In our Conference we need to take advantage of the decline of Boston and Pittsburgh, while Detroit and Montreal are on their way up. I think Detroit is going to be dangerous first, and Montreal a year or two behind but possibly with a higher ceiling. But by the time Montreal arrives it will be time for another rebuild for us, so maybe it doesn't matter to us how good they might become.
