FYI power is a lefty

RIP nevermind

I swear some of these mfs just want to have Bedard and then 22 dmen on the team

Elite D are harder to find than top six forwards.

Sharks are on pace for 60 points after their W last night and that's with Celebrini having missed 12 games, who is still their 3rd best point scorer even with those missed games. Middle of the pack strength of schedule for them the rest of the way. That's a 13 point improvement from the prior season, for context.

Can't wait for the day we see some progress from the Hawks. Not asking them to push for a WC spot or anything, just some damn progress.

Patience, young grasshopper. It will come.

 

[Hawkaholic]

If there is no progress next year, I think I'll start having some doubts about the rebuild. This year was always going to be another brutal year regardless of who they brought in, that's how bad last years team was.

 

[Paul Allen]

I’ll be concerned in 2 years if they aren’t at least in a wild card race halfway through the season. The lack of forward depth is what’s killing them now.

He still has 3 more years after this one at a 5.3M cap hit, for anyone else who might've been curious.

Not even a little.

I highly doubt they are competing for a wild card in 2 years.

I didn't mean curious as in to bring him to Chicago. Absolutely no to that.

Yes, that might not have been the best benchmark. They should be at a 50% point pace though.

Suspension incoming for McDavid.

 

[Drumman44]

Suspension incoming for McDavid.

He's forced to play baseball for a season instead of being suspended

The definition of incidental contact.

He chicken winged him. Come on!

 

[TLEH]

Bouchard got walked by MacK so of course he gets lit up but then this is the card for the game. He has his warts for sure but he’s way too maligned. Useful player. Terrified to pay him 10m though

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

Man seeing Munro on list makes me feel old as f***

 

[DisgruntledHawkFan]

Kari Lehtonen being third on that list is wild he must have f***ing abused the Thrashers.

He was one of my first favorite goalies. I think I saw him play at a Wolves game back in 05 or so and he stuck with me ever since.

I loved Thibault a lot too. He was basically the only good player on the Hawks for NHL 2K5

 

[GIADF]

Friday night and only 2 NHL games, and the league has no CFB or NFL competition, and both games are 6pm CST. It won't even be 8:30pm CST on a Friday and all hockey will already be over for the entire evening.


NHL schedulers suck.

I loved Lehtonen after I saw a ton of him because of the 05 lockout and Thibault is my favorite goalie ever.

If the Devils are willing to move Nemec, I'd move quite a bit of our prospect capital to get him.

He'd immediately be our best D prospect after Lev... maybe ahead of him based on timeline.

I'd love him, but we really don't have room for him here. The only trade that would make sense is something like Donato and Murphy 50% retained and the Toronto 1st. I'd imagine they'd have other teams lined up with better offers for him than that, though.
