Jeannot scores to make it 7-7. Ottawa has 4 power play goals. Kings have 22 shots

Frost for Zach attack. Who says no ?

The contrarians on this board say a lot of brain rotted things, but acting like it was a valid argument that MacEwen could be better than Frost offensively was top tier.

Casey and Hutson balling :nod:



Relevant on two fronts.

Allowed them to swing on Silayev. Imagine if he hits too :laugh:.

I don’t think either of us cared much for him, right?

Tbh the Devils did the thing I was talking about in taking Silayev over Buium. I think they skewed fit. I called it at the pick they’d take Dickinson or Silayev. It also goes back to taking Nemec over Cooley, where they at least selected their idea of BPA, even if the position wasn’t ideal. I think it made them shy about doing it again, however.

But they still have Luke Hughes (arguably a better prospect than Buium), and we’ll both be dead before the Flyers have a defender of that skill level.


Konecny has seriously leveled up the last two years. Giroux never played with this version. I would ritualistically sacrifice you to Chuck E. Cheese to watch Giroux play with current Konecny and Frost and Michkov.

Nah, but I thought his ceiling was high as a modern defensive dman though. He just felt really raw.

Forgot they took him over Dickinson and Buium tbh :facepalm:. I erased that whole round from my mind.

Isn't Norris that one player who tracking insanely well at young age before he got some awful injury? Kinda like Verheaghe kind of impact out of nowhere?
Yeah he had a 35-goal season in 2022, then played 8 games in year 1 of his big deal and only 50 last year

Find me in the ball pit and you’re not walking out in one piece.

Jokes on you, goal didn't count
Well obviously, since no PP points actually count

If the Satanists had Luke Hughes and Buium, just trade anyone else for value/fit, if need be. That would be the most unfair twosome for a decade+. I told Jersey to trade Holtz 3-4 years ago, but they didn’t listen! I’d have done the same with Nemec in the next 12-24 months.

Or the Devils could’ve taken Luchanko and traded the inferior version in Hischier.
