bub spank posted:I feel like this about the Sens too. They made it competitive until the last few weeks of the season, and did so without their #1 centre for the entire year, and without their #1 goalie for long stretches of the season, including for the entirety of this current slump that wrecked their playoff hopes. They've got their core locked up for the next few years, that core only got better as the year went on, and there's no more obvious boat anchors on D like Zaitsev. Tkachuk and Stutzle both look like legitimate first liners, with Stutzle on pace for ~95 points and 40 goals, and Tkachuk over PPG. Next season's depth chart looks like this: I have a really bad feeling they’re gonna try flipping Brannstrom this summer, guy isn’t going to get pp time behind Chabot/Sandy/Chychrun and he legitimately deserves more icetime with the way he’s played this season. He’ll be cheap to keep on a 2-year deal, and everyone knows Chychrun is gonna miss his token 30+ games a year.

Before Sullivan’s trajectory took off with his hiring at AHL Wilkes-Barre, he worked in the Blackhawks’ front office. They were going to work together on the 2022 US Olympic team before Bowman’s resignation. There are going to be a lot of names linked to western Pennsylvania. This league is just the loving worst

Rick Bowness did a great job taking this roster to the playoffs, but it’s actually embarrassing that he was the only change that Chevy made to the team last summer lol Also didn’t realize what an absolutely stacked prospect cupboard Anaheim has, the top defenseman from every league in the CHL and the highest chances for Bedard in the lottery https://twitter.com/nhlupdate/status/1651661277209726976?s=46&t=2hVb1vPytx9OUpdE0UPz6Q The Dirty Burger fucked around with this message at 05:07 on Apr 28, 2023 |

Watching the Jets top-6 is infuriating, if you’re going to be that lazy and awful defensively at least provide a little offense. Kyle Connor and Mark Scheifele are sick goalscorers but a drat near liability at 5 on 5 taking extra long shifts just gliding around. Dubois looked really good for a couple games before going back to looking disinterested. Blake Wheeler is Blake Wheeler. But the top-6 doesn’t score at all so what can ya do? Bowness was brought in to try and change the culture of the locker room but it’s the same old Jets, and everybody knows they have to make big roster changes this summer and I don’t know if Chevyldayoff is capable of making them

ThinkTank posted:Dubois had a total "I don't give a poo poo get me out of here" expression afger he scored the goal that would've made it 4-2 before it wad overturned. Like you scored a goal that brought your team within two with time remaining, maybe show some interest in that? Honestly, if I’m Montreal I want no part of signing this guy long-term when he goes UFA. Has he been mailing it in for 60% of the games he’s played in Columbus/Winnipeg because he’s unhappy playing for any team other than Montreal? Then pull an Adam Fox and demand a trade there, because playing like a top-tier power forward in game 1 and then absolutely disappearing for 4 straight is cruel to those poor Jets fans
