Watch out for the Red Wings ride for pride. They went on a run to close out last season and build some serious momentum heading into this season. It really worked too. They started 1-10. đź‘Ť

So excited to get the 5th overall pick.

If the Wings tank down the stretch it could easily destroy the winning culture that is the foundation to the franchise. This is why guys like Abby, Helm, Kronwall, Ericsson, and Howard are so valuable. They pass on that winning culture. Oh also Nielsen, Vanek, Daley, Bernier, Green can also help pass on that culture. Oh and high-calibre executives like Draper and Maltby and Cleary can also pass on that culture.

I wouldn't count the Leafs out. Especially the Bruins. It's not like they swept them back to back playoff series'. Doesn't matter anyway. Tampa is better than both teams.

Maybe he and Abdelkader will collide, suffering career ending injuries in the process?

Not sure I'd characterize the Kings as desperate....they took a long shot at rebuilding on the fly and as it usual, it didn't work. Kings fans know the bill is coming due and I think they'll grind through a tough rebuild for a few more seasons in order to build the team up for another window of contention. Short of someone buying up a couple of awful contracts or a couple of fifth-round picks emerging as stars - you know, miracles - that's just the way it is. #1 priority is to get a new staff in place, develop a plan and stick to it....no more tryng to steal another Cup with the core of the 2014 and 2014 winners.

It appears Eklund thinks that in actuality the Sabres are not quite over the hump, not quite over it yet, not quite

Where are the picks tonight? There is almost a bakers dozen of games starting in 15 minutes. Problems with the Buzztron? Besides the obvious failure of being 68-68 right now?
