Impressive trick with the Cyrillic. You've got skills.

Happy new years folks

Really hope our negotiating still treats players with respect, don't mind low balling players but if your building with youth be fair or trade the players, they've worked so hard to change this image be a shame to destroy it in a couple of seasons.

I used to love it when Ogi had his camouflaged soldier in the grass say hello to Eli.

Barney was a great nickname, imo. The whole Mayberry thing brought great mirth. I'm still pissed I bought him 2 six-packs of beer for getting the Ice Hog tickets....

Antibiotics will help with that.

Tough night for the Finns, losing 4-1 to Canada and out shot 39-18. I always like how the Finns play though. They are doing a great job developing talent.

Hasn’t so far.

Team Canada is real good ,such a shame Dach got hurt .Cozens is stealing his thunder .
Man if I were Stan I throw a contract at that Finnish goalie could be a late bloomer .

Hasn’t so far.

Because it's a virus!

Won't likely ever use this description:
Caufield jockeying for position
Not along boards or in front of net. Or in a scrum

Maybe jockeying for the goal scoring title if all goes well. Imagine if an American led the Canadiens and NHL in goal scoring!

Sa cre' blue Alex Ovechkin!

Pacioretty led the Canadiens several times in scoring, besides being the captain for a few years.

Like Boston did with Chara?

Josh Ho Sang wasn’t invited to camp by the islanders. What a waste of talent. To paraphrase Larry Hockett from Bull Durham , Ho Sang has million dollar talent and a five cent head.

It's a shame. All he needs is a year of dead lifts and squats; along with gallons of heavy whipping cream and some wheat germ.

Don’t go there! I was told for years that there’s a place in Chicago where players can go to get the requisite 20 lbs of muscle, kinda like what Kruger and Kane did.

Then maybe you want Carson Lambos, tenth on my list, both I am taken the Swedish goalie before him, or a scorer.

BYW if I had to say, 2022 lots like a little stronger class than 2021.

2021is really good where the Blackhawks are selecting in the first but it flattens quickly to developmental guys in that second round, maybe not early, but at then =of the first this season, I the nk the teams got better chances at quality NHLers than will be there this draft.

Wiz, your Swedish goalie was AWFUL. Gave up one of the worst possible goal on the 1st one, really can’t get beat from the corner behind the goal line. The 2nd wasn’t much better, and gets pulled in the second period after the 4th. woof, in a big game, he had nothing.

I do like Matthew Beniers, where do you have him ranked?

The Austrian goalie should get MVP for surviving.

Night and Wolf have played well except for a couple of misplays by Knight against the Russians.

Knight a good one so the Sweedish kid .Hard to look great in this tournament lot of mistakes made by young kids goalie included . I liked that Finnish kid Piiroinen played in Windsor not great but looks to be getting it together .FA I believe after being overlooked last two drafts . With no real goalie prospects in the pipe line maybe worth a look HAPPY NEW YEAR ALL !!!
