I never said it was a “good” drink, only that it shouldn’t be sweet. He probably made it with a bottle of pre mix booze, with mostly Coke.

I hope not.
Yes, the league made it pretty easy for them but the other GM's made it a cake walk. It will be interesting to see how Seattle does.

Don't you have some napkins to fold?

My vote for tonight is to scratch Roussel and put Loui in.
- NorthNuck

have you forgotten about ZacMac... ? But you still need Roussel's fore checking so maybe Beagel needs a night off after making so many mistakes.

Hearing Tyler Myers is skating today, no word on if he plays tonight.

Getting closer.

Depends on how he responds to treatment.

Physicality isn't how Van wins this series, they can't compete with Vegas in that area

No, but they do need speed for the forecheck. Zac brings that.

LE sitting in the neutral zone getting skated past isn't going to help a ton. For him to score we'll need to be up 2-3 goals so he can pot an empty netter

Yes I know the Beiksa and Burke statements of bringing a hockey stick to a gunfight. Its not about adding more toughness as they are the same more or less there except ZacMac can fight.

Its giving an older slower guy some rest as he was making mistakes. Plus adding some more speed to get to the net around those VGK box outs.

In a couple of years, right in the middle of their competitive cycle, Vancouver will have two of these artificially-created contenders to go through to win a cup. That's in addition to the other traditional teams like Colorado that have rebuilt and are in their window as well.

Only 8 teams make the playoffs. Gotta have to go through 3 of them to get out of the West at some point.

In a couple of years, I don't see Vegas as being as good as they are right now. And the likelihood that Seattle is as good as them out of the gate is slim. Competitive, but not contenders. Think you're making a whole lot of noise about something that isn't there yet.

The expansion Ducks won a Cup. They and Sharks beat down on Canucks for years who's competitiveness pushed LA to the mix. They take more Cups when Sedins were still in their window. Then before that teams relocated like the Avs that dominated and even Yotes added to beat down on Canucks for a while.

You can't control other teams and what the league is doing. Just take care of your team with good development and management and let the chips fall where they may.

Elliotte Friedman on SN650 says now that the Coyotes have been hit with a pretty big penalty (2020 2nd, 2021 1st), he thinks they'll consider rebuilding and that Darcy Keumper's name will be out there.

Also says Markstrom wants a 6M+ AAV.

See ya.

Perfectly reasonable amount for his quality of play tbh. This cap situation really sucks.

Pretty much. He deserves the money, just tough with this team and the flat cap for the league. 6 mil to play in a poop hole or 5 mil to play in Van...

Ah wait, I forgot, LE is going MTA, so we allll goooooood

That 4th line Stanley Cup winner is really paying off.
