A team to take notice of. Their goaltending is not great but they got a load of good young players.
And an owner who’s known for his impatience, Friedman said the other day GM & coach have been told if they don’t make a playoff run in next two tries he’s making changes

Damn Auston Matthews zero goals or assists in 3 games. Has that ever happened to him before?

Don't think it happened to Lieutenant Matthews or Admiral Matthews but Captain Matthews is built different.

Wouldn't pay any goaltender that with max term. With the exception of the dead puck era, teams have needed two goaltenders since the 1960's. They aren't worth as much as the top forwards or dmen in my opinion.
There are exceptions for every rule. Look what’s happening in Colorado. How many cups would they win with Shesterkin?

They're making a run for the playoffs this year. They need to upgrade their D, but they have the assets to do it. They've won 2 games in OT, so I expect them to fall into Wild Card status eventually.

Still, Dallas, Colorado & Winnipeg should be locks in Central. Vancouver, LAK, Edmonton, Vegas in Pacific.

I expect Utah to battle St. Louis, Minnesota, and Nashville for the final spot.

San Jose, Calgary, Chicago and Seattle should be bottom 4.

I expect Anaheim to be a tweener due to a young D. Not quite ready to compete, but improved over last year.
