Looks like he's got a decent shot. Like you said, he could be a quality depth signing.
- JohnScammo

Probably not working in his favor that he's going to be 26 soon. My guess is AHL guy, but who knows. Good signing though, regardless. Free assets are free.

This of course comes as no surprise to any of us regulars. BTW, can you post the tweet so the rest of us can fully enjoy this moment?

Look I'll be at game c of the playoffs if anyone wants to fight me, I've already told chiefs to leave the porch light on and (frank) off find it yourself

You'll be at "game c"? Darn, I'm gonna be at game z. But I'll look for you anyway...

He's going to game 100 if you're into Roman numerals

Good point. Missed that. Hey, if you count the first 82 as regular season games, then game 100 would be 18 games into the playoffs. I'd gladly take that!

Almost no undrafted college free agent is going to be ready to step into the NHL

Would not think so. Nice Toews and MDC will be getting playoff action along with Barzal and Beau.

Also getting playoff time , their UFAs. One last chance to show GMs that they can play in playoffs. Can only help the Islanders.

Bruins up 2 - 0 over Columbus after one period. If the Bs hold on for a regulation win, the Isles are guaranteed of not having to play Tampa in the first round.

Edit: Now 3 - 0 ......... 4 - 0

I really want home ice over Pittsburgh. Let’s go Detroit.
Damn...4-0 now. Holy poop.

I really want 1st place. Small steps. Right now I just want to be sure we're not getting Tampa.

I don’t see it happening but the best thing about Columbus losing like this is that Montreal will still have something to play for against Washington on Thursday.

Montreal is down 2 - 1 to Tampa at the moment.

I’m guessing we have the tiebreaker over Carolina no matter what?

True, but it's tied and I don't get that game.

Yeah but if Columbus loses, they’re still in contention regardless of tonight.

Not if they end up with more ROWs.

Currently we have 42 and they have 41. But if they win out (which they would have to do to tie us), then they'd likely have more ROWs.
