Thank you for finally using paragraphs. I'm not going to read them but thank you for making the effort anyway.

I missed the worst GM article. Actually read some of the comments. Hall is not just an offensive forward for those that missed the worlds. He is an amazing two way player. The Oilers are in bad need of a guy like him. Lucic's contract might bight us. Hopefully Vegas takes him. We need a guy that can create offence from no where which Eberle and Nuge for some reason are struggling to do. I am a huge Nuge fan but he was the expendable player in the off season if any. Really trading a top 3 player for any defender that wasn't a top tier defender was premature. Obvious the Oiler players, with the exception of Hall after his amazing showing at the Worlds, value was low.

Still Eberle and McDavid were doing great together. Eberle has Elite hands and is a perfect long term fit on his wing. You could put a trained chimp with those two and he would get 20 goals (see Maroon). Then imagine an unerrated two way player like Draisaitl with Elite skills paired with one of the games highest ranked wingers in Hall. Then put anyone with them, even Nuge and you have a line that can play against any top line in the league and not just shut them down but provide dangerous offense.

For those that say Hall is injured all the time. Teams don't rush top players back from injury when they have no chance of making the playoffs. Also, if it is a small injury the take them out to be safe. They don't play hurt. Notice how the Oilers use to have record number of games missed due to injury and now that problem is suddenly gone? Do you think they just found the miracle of band aids? No. Hall will miss games he normally wouldn't on a team not in the running for the playoffs.

I can't believe I actually read this.

Lucic has NMC, so he's protected

Never use the words: hands & elite when describing Eberle

He made an improvement on past actions. That should be commended no matter how irrational the content.

One thing I've noticed is how well Larsson clears out the slot in front of Talbot. When Larsson ins't on the ice, that slot is usually vulnerable.

I guarantee you that McLellan was furious with his players after this game. I'm expecting them to rebound (Calgary-ish type of rebound).

Probably a blessing in disguise really. A fresher Jets squad can only benefit the Devils draft chances.

I don't know, WPG is doing their best NY Jets impression as of late and pretending not to be a professional team.

Doesn't help that the Jets 3 goalies have posted .907, .893, and .888 save percentages.

Can't win games with goal tending like that.

That's what they've done for years. I never understood how going into every year we hear that they have solid goaltending. Have 3 guys one one-way contracts doesn't equal having solid goaltending.
