Nashville Predators Talk - 2024/2025 Season

[nine_inch_fang]

And our schedule has actually been pretty light. The average placement of everyone we have faced so far is a rather mid 17th (using current NHL placement). So youd think we would be doin better. We just went 1-2-2 against a very middle of the pack group.
COL - 17th
EDM - 13th
CGY - 11th
VAN - 15th
SEA - 16th

If that's how we fair against opponents who average out to 14th with no extreme outliers, i cant wait to see how we fair against the next 5 that average out to 9th, with 3 in the top 5.

Average opponent standings spot of a game we won - 21
Average opponent standings spot of a game we lost - 14.5

Highest spot we have won against - 12th
Lowest spot we have lost against - 28th

I liked this because it's good research. The information uncovered by said research is pitiful.

It sure seems like Schenn and Josi run this team.

Would yall be interested in Dougie Hamilton for Tomas Novak and whatever else is necessary, both ways, to make it work?

No

 

[Deviled]

No

Fair enough! Lol

Devils probably should keep him because it lowers Luke Hughes' next deals caphit; but moving him toward the deadline would be fabulous as well

Godspeed on the season

Absolutely I would do that. No take backs.

The part that keeps making me shake me head is we are the oldest team in the league. We've got "great locker room guy, cup champion, leader, culture setter" type guys coming out the wazoo. Coming out flat every single night anyway. I don't know how anyone (cough ownership cough) can look at this and blame anyone but the coach and GM - it ain't the players!

As a side note, I do think the "locker room presence" thing weighs too heavily in fans' evaluation of players. We don't know what happens in the locker room, and I'm sure there are plenty of guys that are known as captain material but aren't at all, and vice versa. Let's go get talent instead, for now.

$9M for another 4 years for another Josi-type d-man? I dunno man. I guess if we can send Stamkos back to make cap work.
