I sure hope we pick a goalie or two in the next couple drafts, I'd hate to see a successful rebuild like the Leafs or oilers and then roll the dice with a giant question mark in goal.

Demidov is a HAB
Had plenty of assets, picks and prospects to bolster their roster and did nothing.
Sucks to suck.,
Canes will be fine. Kotkaniemi just got 5 points in a single game not too long ago.

You could see dadonov turn a corner even in Montreal from an offensive standpoint. He went from being useless to a guy that could make a play every now and then.
I still think he's a major liability defensively, and so is the guy he got traded for.

They should have picked KK, could have avoided all this offer sheet karma

I got bullied into ranking Dach ahead of him by some draft board posters. Love the echo chamber that stems from one person there.

Stay true to your convictions.
When people insist that a 10-pt season is good, and you don’t think so, don’t be deterred.

This is becoming a daily occurence... KK with 1 and 1.
50 pts clip in game 20.

I just now realized how big the Oilers are.

6'3
Two players under 6', three under 6'1. They have assembled the tallest team in the league and 3rd heaviest as per EP. If the goaltending holds, I think they'll come out of the west pretty easily.
LA tried to stop Edmonton last year and lost, even with Quick pulling miracles, this year they don't have Quick and Kopitar has noticeably slowed down. Though the kids are alright right now, Byfield, Vilardi, Fiala and Durzi are all leaders on the team now.
All the teams out west, save for Dallas and Winnipeg pretty much all have goaltending problems, so its not much of a problem for Edmonton, I think. Tempted to put money on them for the cup.

nice analysis, although i'm not so sure they'll come out of the West (Colorado, Vegas, Dallas, Minnesota)
in any case it'll be fun to see whether McDavid and Draisaitl can drag that 6'2 team carcass into the 2nd round and beyond

I wouldn't call it a carcass anymore. Ekholm changes things. Their top 6 is the best in the league, for obvious reasons, but they also have very good players. RNH, Kane, Hyman and Yamamoto.nice analysis, although i'm not so sure they'll come out of the West (Colorado, Vegas, Dallas, Minnesota)

It's their bottom six, defense and goaltending that was always suspect. Well, now they've added depth with Kostin, Bjugstad, Janmark, Foegele and Ryan. Guys that can grind and score. Not exactly world beaters, but when you have the ice taken care of for 50 minutes a game by your top 6, you don't need that much of a bottom 6. At least they can provide energy, disrupt and potentially not get completely outmatched. Especially the third line, Janmark is a very good addition, he played a similar role to Lekhy for Vegas.
Ekholm gives them the stabilizing presence they needed IMO. They basically swapped Barrie for Ekholm, that can't be bad. Also not having Koskinen is already a plus.
