And Kravtsov can stay in Europe for me

I consider this attitude to be both selfish and the foundation of another restraining order.

Got the opportunity to go to tonight's event at the Hulu theater. A few takeaways, Zibanejad is awesome and honestly shouldn't be overlooked for captain. Quite a few of the guys seem to gravitate towards him, and he and Lias TOTALLY have a brotherly love thing going on. Next, Freddy Claesson is an absolute legend and I will miss him when he is gone, fantastic character. Very cool to see the guys off the ice getting all personal and stuff. It's easy to forget that they're just like us, but really theyre such a cool group of guys.

He could buck the trend. I wouldn't expect it.

Leivo just scored...playing on the top line

There’s just so little skill on this roster.

That last game was so hard to watch... I’d rather pour salt into my eyes.

Player scores goal first game after being traded. Color me shocked. Ryan Spooner looked like a first line player for a few weeks after the Rangers traded for him last year.

Let’s revisit in a few months.

I'd take a long look at Jakob Lilja in Sweden. He's having a big time break-out year and is only 25. 6 foot guy so not a 5'7" tiny dude. @Ola , care to chime in? I know he's looked at as sort of a "jack of all trades, master of none" guy, but his production this year is pretty great.

I like Lilja, good energy player. Much more versatile than Lindgren and co.

If I was putting together a competitive team for the NHL and had like a budget of 20m USD -- Jack Connoly wold be on my team. High quality player. To bad he is a year or three too old. He like 'was' down right soft for a while, but he has adjusted much more.
