Florida's defence is awful, they basically have to have a winning percentage close to last year's team the rest of the way to even have a chance at the playoffs. They've really pushed the chips in after last year and don't have a 1st rounder for the next 3 drafts. I'm still baffled by the Maurice hiring, man he must interview well.

Weegar has good underlying numbers and Huberdeau has started to pass the puck into the net a little better... the trade looks less horrible now than it did a few months ago. That Huberdeau extension tho... I hope the Habs still want him in like 4 or 5 years.

My least favorite teams all happened before the salary cap... The Flames Young Guns and their $20 million payrolls vs Dallas/Detroit in the late 90s, practically AHL talent (and Jarome Iginla) vs $80 million payrolls.

The Black Stones posted:When they gave up the third goal in the first period it was much appreciated so I could do others things. Huberdeau doesn't even look like he's worth his current contract... let alone it almost doubling next year. It's almost like Milan Lucic shouldn't be in the top 6. Also fire Markstrom into the sun... .922 last year to an .895, jesus christ I hate this team.

The Pacific garbage patch is turning into a pretty interesting divisional race, 5 teams with 5 points of each other... all terribly inconsistent with various holes in the lineup, currently being lead by a team with a negative goal differential (yeah yeah games played). It's not really who wants it more rather who can poo poo the bed less

ThinkTank posted:Make Sutter coach McDavid. I wanna see him be forced to block shots. There was a play in preseason where Huberdeau took the puck off a pinching d-man and did this nifty spin-o-rama to avoid the guy entirely and create an odd man rush from center ice in... all Sutter saw on that play was a forward shying away from contact in his own zone. Huberdeau grinds now... I mean he's pretty good at it because he's pretty jacked, but that's $10.5 starting next year. I'm sure McDavid would still probably get 120 points, but he'd be benched for missing assignments... and have Lucic on his wing... again.

Low bar but yeah, as long as Toronto doesn't burn down you're probably behaving yourselves better than Vancouver handled it... and Ottawa fans were just in denial that they might actually win.

Markstrom let in the first two shots he faced last night, he actually missed on the first 3 but one hit the post. I think he saved the 4th shot but I'm not 100% on that... nobody should be subjected to Sutter hockey trailing by 2.
