Canucks said they were going to shop the waivers for help. Surprised others didn't as well, but there are a lot of teams with zero cap room for moves. I was hoping the Oilers would find a center worth poaching.
There's going to be a lot of fighting this year. Goons are cheap roster fillers.
Thats a pretty good price, around face value or less depending on where the seats are located.
Definitely will be if Eller can round himself back into form.

Nyquist sent down because of cap space not because of performance, just had to sign Cleary right? Stupid Holland.
Who are all these players we keep getting?!?
Please don't send down Shinkaruk yet kthx.
WHAT WUT HGUHGHGADSAK??? !!!???@@!#!@#!@$@!$!2
mikkkkkkkkaaaaa nooooooooooooooooooooooo
Depends on how the Gally's deal with a possible sophomore slump, but if they continue progressing like they did last year it definitely will be.
Glad Powe cleared waivers. I'm honestly kind of surprised he didn't make the team out of camp with the way he played in the preseason, but AV has already said he plans to use him and hoped he would clear and remain available to them.
Seems like Rangers' opening night lineup will probably be:
Richards-Stepan-Nash
Pouilot-Brassard-Zuccarello
Pyatt-Boyle-Fast
Miller-D.Moore-Dorsett
McDonagh-Girardi
Staal-Del Zotto
J.Moore-Stralman
Lundqvist
Biron

lol at zibanejad situation
Can't wait to watch this line. Hope they get more minutes this year.
They should be getting 15-16 at least a night instead of the paltry 12 from last year. PP time too.
Yost is going to milk this food all it's worth, but I don't think it's a complete money issue.
Da Costa and Pageau were both better, but Zibanejad is waiver exempt and Da Costa is not. I have to assume that this is a temporary measure until they figure out what to do with Da Costa. Zibanejad will be back in the NHL this season, no question.

Wildcard berths that can't beat teams without a winning record should have homefield advantage
Gus practiced today.
I know Nyquist will be back. It's just irritating to watch a much better player get sent down.

Players that can't skate > Nyquist
I would have believed you if the owner didnt just say last weekend that he just found out that the team is over the budget, and that Zibenejad is due for some bonuses this year.
Yeah Pageau and DaCosta also outplayed Turris and Spezza.
1 week of camp is worth more than 1 season when your the leading scorer on the team as a 19 year old?
Hes actually our 2nd leading scorer now that Gonchar and Alfie both left.
Best players play my ass.

i missed the fantasy hockey draft, but got John Tavares, so i deem it a total success.
Also, the Isles ended the preseason on a high note, so thats good news.

Tatar is probably a healthy scratch for game 1, absolutely hilarious, management has really screwed up because they had to spend money and a roster spot on players we did not need and who have nothing left to give. I have a feeling though he will be up for game 2 after Sammy, Cleary, or whoever shows they have nothing left and in the tank. Also I guess they are aggressively pursuing a trade with Tootoo so they can recall Nyquist now.

What in the flying fuck. Zibby better be back in a couple games.
Was just about to say that. But otherwise that line looks HOT HOT HOT!
In my opinion (based just on how I feel and has nothing to back it up) I think Galchenyuk is going to tear it up this year. While Gallagher may fall off a bit.
A little late, but I'm pretty happy with my lineup from the draft last night.

What? How is that even possible? Ridiculous.
Where did you read that?
Edit: Just read it. Ansar tweeted it. Screw Holland.
I'm incined to agree with you, simply based on AGally's worth ethic/weight gain/size putting him over the hump, where BGally may wear down more over an 82 game season.
Time will tell!
I'm starting to think the Sabres third jersey will never see the light of day (thankfully). The jersey has not been spoken of since its unveiling, and you STILL cannot buy one from the Sabres store. I'm kind of stunned the Sabres are actually admitting this thing was a POS.

It doesn't matter what you did last season. Everyone was expected to bring it during training camp. Pageau was money in the playoffs and they even had him attend development camp and the rookie tournament.
If Zibanejad thought he had it in the bag then that's not the kind of attitude they want him to have. Look at how Pageau played.
I'm sure Melnyk doesn't mind saving the money either.

Sabres really like their pyjamas.
Admittedly, pretty much everything but their current jerseys were atrocities. But their current home/away jerseys are beautiful.

Well you do need a goalie.
So I'm finalizing my pack of tickets for this season, last game will either be Boston or Montreal. Can't decide though.
Boston would be cool because of Chara, potential Rask meltdown, and I always like seeing Jumbo play them.
Montreal would be cool because of Subban and the Gally's.
What do you guys think?

Boston. That way you can throw some ice cream at Marchand when he comes on the ice.
He'll get a face full of Dippin Dots.
