Sucks for Wild fans that they got bounced in 5, because with $13mil of dead cap coming next year from the buyouts you can’t even lie to yourself and say that they will be back better next year

That being said, outside of goaltending St Louis might be the best team in the west, their scoring depth is insane they had 9 20 goal scorers in the regular season

St Louis has big holes on defense and that was before half their D got injured. Their scoring depth is good, but I would a lot them as a dark horse. Just like when they won the cup in 2019.

I was gonna make a joke about Crosby but honestly it’s not even funny anymore. He’s going to be so hosed up later in life because of all these concussions and I can’t even joke or laugh about it anymore. It’s just hosed.

Crosby and Dumoulin aren't at the morning skate and therefore I'd assume are not playing. Rakell and Jarry are there. It'd be nice to get Rakell back if Sid can't go. That might allow the Penguins to have some semblance of a second line.

e: looks like Rakell didn't take rushes though so probably not playing tonight

They are. Tampa doesn't get into the obvious shitheadery too much but they may low key be the dirtiest team in the league. Wasn't surprised at all when Perry went there.

that's cool. i'm a bit torn towards doing the "dress Nemeth but don't play him" thing again. it kind of saves Gallant from himself by:

-not playing Nemeth
-giving the kid line enough time (who honestly have been the most consistent play-controlling line in the series, which gives me lots of warm feelings for the future)
-even when he does play the fourth line, having one of our top-nine guys out there with him

but if Motte does play, then hopefully they actually keep Braun in and sit Nemeth and still don't overplay the 4th. it's also probably going to be a very intense game, so I hope he's up to speed.

He apparently skated today so maybe it's not as bad as it seems.

That said if it is a concussion... I mean he's got nothing left to prove to anyone.
If Malkin and Letang aren't coming back maybe he ought to consider it.

That's a lot of compounding Ifs though.

It has to do with his long term health. Nothing to do with Geno or Letang or anyone else. Brain trauma really, really sucks.

I hope he's ok.
