He’s not that young. He’ll be 23 in 2 weeks. He needs to take this opportunity to establish himself. This is a young man’s league and he’s a winger.

I like the kid
 
I like getting Lemieux over Stanley if just for the fact that if Lemieux totally sucks teams are going to line up to trade for him anyway and if he’s good, we got a good piece, win-win

So he’s not even 23 yet..i think that classifies as young ;). The typical rookie enters the league full time at 22 (i read that average somewhere awhile back, sorry have no idea where at this point)
 
Big games tonight, Minny-Winnipeg and Vegas-Dallas. We are better off if Winnipeg beats Minny, to get Dallas into the POs, I think.

I think we want Minnesota to win and Dallas to lose. At this point I am doubtful they make it through 2 rounds in the playoffs so the higher the 2nd the better. Then we must hope they re-sign Zuccarello

Maybe, but isn't it more likely that they will resign Zucc -- if -- they get into the POs?

This should help Nashville win the division.

Nick Kypreos just said on the Sportsnet Hockey Central at noon show that he is hearing Morrissey won't be ready for the first round of the playoffs.

The Blues are 6 points behind the Jets. Even in games played. The Blues might pass them.

On one hand, I really think the Jets kinda suck, but on the other hand, I really think the Central kinda sucks.

I kind of feel the same about every playoff team right now. Like I get Tampa is so far ahead of everyone else, but I feel like regular season super teams get into a rhythem of coasting through games when they’re that much better than everyone else and end up having trouble later in the playoffs

Yeah, nobody's really that great. That's what the league wanted.

The only team that is that great gets free cap circumvention and they're known for not getting it done.
 
Hayes played his last game as a Ranger against Minnesota. Hayes played his first game as a Jet against Minnesota. They had a Jets Hall of Fame ceremony before the game. Keith Tkachuk was there. A friendly face.
 
Would be a real shame if the Jets got bounced early or missed the playoffs completely

Although our luck their pick would be a lottery one with like 0.000002% chance of winning and they would get to defer to 2020 first
 
I watched 2 periods of the Jets game tonight to see Kevin. What an absolute mess. On paper, the Jets have it all, including perhaps the best center depth in the league. But watching that team play: serious coaching and systems issues. Stretch/"hope" passes all over the ice, multiple odd man rushes against each period, 40 shots against, terrible PK, and just very lackadaisical in defensive zone. Eerily similar to the AV brand of hockey. They lost to the Wild, who are below them in the standings. Just look at the Jets forum post game thread, it's almost despair over there with how bad their coach is. Contender? That team might not even make the playoffs if they repeat that performance for the rest of the season.

Feeling grateful to have DQ. I seriously forgot how frustrating it was watching a team give up 40+ shots every night and grade-a odd man rushes every 5 minutes.

Yeah they're not perfect but they have a lot of talent and shouldn't continually screw it up year after year like they do. Also very undisciplined as I recall and don't have a good PK which is a dumb and bad combo

Their team play was very good last year, I don’t know what changed.

One play that stood out to me during the 1st period tonight was Ehlers carrying the puck up the ice, and he turned it over at the opposing blue line while trying to dangle through 2-3 players. It was straight out of the Filip Chytil playbook. But like... Chytil isn’t a 4th-year NHLer, and the Rangers aren’t trying to win their division. And shit, Chytil is still sitting. :laugh:

I swear to God if that team does somehow miss the playoffs and that 1st wins the lottery, I’m just done with hockey.

TBH, I'd even take a Ryan Hollweg... someone just to fly around and hit people.

Hitting is still allowed right?
 
We really need Tampa to win the Cup, Jets to suck as much as possible, would be great if they find a way to miss the playoffs, and would be incredible if Dallas wins 2 rounds.

If Lemieux scores a goal as his next point then he will have doubled Hollweg's career goal total and tied his career point total
