Hey the Pens might win a hockey game! Would be hilarious if the Sharks got up for this one (can't see it though).

Edit: they didn't (get up for this one)

Gonna watch Avs Vegas. Hoping it'll be a good 'un

Edit: it wasn't

Watching Anaheim vs Vegas. Ducks are really good this season. 3rd period eye test suggests they move the pick really well. Like the Caps about 5-6 years ago.
 

This Edmonton situation is really getting out of hand. McDavid melted down and got into a fight, Drai got a misconduct, and Woodcroft got thrown out of the game. I wonder if Woody gets the axe soon. McDrai starting to look like coach killers (though Holland certainly to blame for this mess). What if they lose to the Sharks this week?

Meanwhile, this Canucks team is really fun to watch. Their puck movement is beautiful. Petterson, Q. Hughes, and Demko looking like true franchise cornerstones. Quinn Hughes, particularly, has taken the next step - 20pts, +16. Looks 2nd only to Makar atm.

Tocchet has got those guys buying in and even TJ Miller is playing a responsible two-way game. Add in Boeser, Kuzmenko, Mikheyev and there’s lots of firepower. Could certainly use some upgrades at D if they want to make noise this year.

They have definitely become my west coast watch.

Edmonton's biggest problem is Holland and their front office. Until they clean house that team is screwed and will go nowhere.

Canucks are aweome. I am really enjoying their turnaround. Was going to post the other day about how much talent they have. Demko is living up to his draft hype and looking like the real deal.

Meanwhile in Toronto, Sammy is turning into the pumpkin we all knew he was. This is the bottom of ESPN goaltending list by save percentage:

Edit: both of Edmonton's goalies are down here as well

Woodcroft propably knew this was it for him.

Oilers and their goalies crapping the bed could present a brilliant opportunity for a rebuilding team that has a good goaltender. At some point in time Oilers will surely explore what the cost would be to dump Campbell and replace him. We aren't there yet but how many 1st round picks would they be willing to trade to get rid of that contract mid-season while adding a new goaltender? 2 first-round picks? More?

McDavid for Kuemper straight up. If they throw in Drai we can even give them one of our better D-men, like LuJo who will break out any day now.

The Devils Colorado game is a lot of fun. Colorado so fast and lethal. Got nasty for a little while too. Hope to see Vitek take the loss. :-)
 
Someone will be stupid enough to bail them out, but boy howdy is that Ryan Reaves signing looking bad in Toronto. On top of being unplayable (on for 0 goals for, 9 goals against) he didn't even deter the hit that took out Liljegren! Why is Reaves there???
 
On the other hand I don't think any team is going to bail them out of John Klingberg's contract. 4.15 million United States Dollars and a modified no-trade clause! Why???
