Personally I think the experience is invaluable and guys need to know what the playoffs are all about. Horvat has been patient with management’s fumblings, I think he deserves this in a big way.

Pfft, I've already ordered my officially licensed Team E Lafreniere jersey.

That Minny team is quite the juggernaut.

Experience and playing well defensively will beat pure talent and poor defensive play.

The NHL is dominating the news today aside from CV19 and Trump. We're #3

Listening to the SN live broadcast last night Frank Seravalli said the CHL and AHL are gate driven and won't have a season without fans. He said they are going to look into things around October. I always wonder what people think will happen between now and the rest of the year?

Both are fairly close on D. This first series will have lots of injuries, that will make the difference.

At this rate it will get worse before it gets better, and I'm not even talking about covid-19.

Cap Friendly has finally adjusted the cap hit for next year.

But car accidents are bad and I don’t see you saying let’s get rid of cars, derp!

I think there is no losing this year .

A ) We win and play in the playoffs.

B) We lose and have a one in 8 chance in winning the first over all

C) We lose and draft top 15 and get another very good player.

I think all scenarios are welcomed.

Yup, this sums it up. Im hoping for A, see what these young guys are really made of.

Oh i was definitely joking. Comparing a viral epidemic to everyday activities that people can freely choose to do or not makes zero sense imo.

This outcome would really make this whole lotto a disaster.

They want a new CBA, they're pissed about escrow, and in holiday mode. Think that might transfer to their enthusiasm on the ice? I do.

Ugh, how many are there of you?

Just one mate, when you spend 41 years of the same keeper league with nhl rules and having your own teams added in to the existing nhl teams, play interleague against each other and also against the nhl. Pretty complicated to explain but that is the reason I have more than one fav team. I have players spread all throughout the nhl and I love them all. I have not missed a Flyers game for several years and I have always either drafted Flyers or traded for them. Other than that I am completely normal, lol.

I hate saying this but even though the numbers are high about having symptoms and testing positive the number of people under the age of 50 dying is very low.

Example Auston Matthews tested positive but is still expected to report to camp on time. I don't know what info these sports leagues have so it is impossible for me or most to really know what is going through their minds.

The PA could have easily said all along sorry it is too dangerous we are not coming back and that would have ended discussions a long time ago.

It is all about the money on both sides.

The players know they can miss a year or two with no money coming in and when they return they face a 50% escrow. Money talks.
