Vatanen not playing today, needs to play 70% to get the higher pick I believe

So, a forth round pick.... at least it's something.

You ever know Vats to be out for one game?

I mean sure, it's possible...but just tell yourself we are getting a fourth and we can both act pleasantly surprised if I'm wrong.

Perhaps, but there are many factors over the next few years that could change. Draft busts, draft surprises, injuries, cap problems, players underachieving etc. only time will tell.

Remember the old joke: what do the Rangers and the Titanic have in common? They both look great on paper until they hit the ice.

I think best case scenario for us is the rangers end up like the current leafs, but Shesterkyn projects to be a much better goalie than Anderson.

I think Ben and I started that in like 2011. It’s disturbing how long it has been and I haven’t gotten a new bit yet.

it might be old but you still get a new person with it once in a while so it makes it worth it.

It’s funny because it’s true.

Told you it would be an embarrassment. Almost tripling the Yotes in shots. Is there a Norris candidate on the Avs D? Oh that was the Predators. I maintain Nashville lost that series more than Arizona won it. Nash is just that bad. Hynes is just that bad. I know it's just one game, but this is what I expected from Colorado ..and what I expected from Arizona.
We want them to win so we can get a 1st next yr with a Hall re-signing. Yotes would have to win this series and the next if, if I'm not mistaken.
Its probably not going to happen. So we'll take what we get. Thanks Hynes.
I find the Canucks series with more rooting interest. We need them to lose, without question.

I forget who Ben is, and how you and him are on a 1st name basis.

Ben is your boy and he and I once played cod blops together

Only Hynes could lose a series to the Yotes. Sigh...

lol. Pomegrant. The only CODs I play are W@W and MW2. Honest truth. A few times/year I'll play Alcatraz.

Holy Horvat.

Poile in a press conference today called out Hynes and rest of coaching staff for not doing well enough. Not sure what he's expecting since he hired a dud coach.

Not sure what he saw in Hynes because if they watched a Devils game the past four years they could see us not play any offense or defense and lose every single game.

Big take away I got from it though was that a lot of players are going to be moved in Nashville so maybe we can get somebody on the cheap or take on a bad contract in a package deal to get picks/prospects.

Lets hope Walsh/Bahl can be Bing's top pairing. They are both AHL ready and their styles would compliment each other. I had prepared for Walsh to be another NCAA departure. Nothing but good news on that front!
