Two goaltenders won their NHL debut tonight, Hildeby for the Leafs and Blomqvist for the Pens. Two pretty good prospects, another two interesting names playing their first NHL games tonight, Celebrini and Smith for the Sharks.
 
The Dahlin captain era is off to a great start in Buffalo 😆

You get the feeling that Edmonton will regress this year.
To lose 6-0 on opening night is shocking too me.

They got off to an incredibly poor start last year, too, but I think they regress.

The D is terrible and soft. Nurse hasn't improved and now his partner is Emberson or Dermott. Both are terrible and neither is a top 4. Broberg is a loss on the D.

Holloway for Skinner? Lol
Arvidsson, Henrique, small & injury prone.
Perry is sloooow.

I don't like anything that they did this summer. Zero upgrades. They got worse.

McDavid will carry this team to the playoffs, but they've taken a huge step back.


Vancouver may not survive the loss of Demko. That D is not good, too. I'm so glad Montreal has a ton of young D. Pacific is pretty wide open & the weakest of the Divisions.

Two girthy boys in Martone and Fantilli would also be too much so.

Well, regardless Columbus will get a really good player. It's going to be a tough year for them with the loss of Gaudreau (RIP), and now Jenner probably out for the year with shoulder surgery. They probably deserve some good things happening for them.

Just not Martone. I'm still dreaming of him in Montreal....

You would think there would be but since no one else put in a claim he can now play in the AHL
 
It's kinda weird, it's not like he's a top prospect either, he's got about 10 NHL games in 4 years. Someone really likes him in Vegas I guess, seems like a lot of work for a guy like that.
 
Back in the days waivers claims had to spend some time in the NHL before they could be waived again.

Wasn't it when someone claims your player and puts him back to waivers if his old team claims him they can sent him down without passing waivers? Did they change that or is it a brainfart by me?

They can only send him down when reclaimed if the claiming team was the only one to put in a claim. When Edmonton originally put him on waivers a team lower than VGK in priority put in a claim on him, but then when VGK waived him they must not have. That meant Edmonton couldn't send him down without waivers, but Vegas could.

This is my understanding anyway, could be wrong.
