I'd love to see the value of this team drop 200-300 million to teach them a lesson, but it wont.

I like Schenn, but he’s too slow. Burroughs is okay, but you need a more reliable veteran 3rd pairing guy for him to pair with.

Poolman is looking like a pool boy... completely unimpressive.
OEL and Hughes are the only ones I’d hate to lose. I’m open to seeing the other 5-6 go.

Bruce Boudreau has never coached a losing season ever in his NHL career.

The closest was 37-36-9.

The best part of this (slump) is the fanboys STFU for awhile.

Laugh all you want but…

All time winning percentage for active franchises:

Nashville #5 1,731gp .557
Vancouver #30 3,946gp .448

https://en.m.wikipedia.or...tandings_for_active_teams

Now, if we want to compare apples to apples we can look up Vancouver’s winning percentage for their first 1,731 games but I don’t think you’d really want to see that.

I love this lol

When we had our last great team run as well we had essentially 2 great forwards in the twins 1 extremely good 2nd line center Kesler. Very nice depth burrows Higgins lamps Malhotra Torres etc

Elite goaltending

And................ what was the major key to success......
A ROCK SOLID DEFENSE that got the puck to the forwards. It was a combo of Willie KB Salo Erhoff Ohlund Edler Hammy as the main pieces that's how you build a freaking winner.

I hope FA does nothing.

Brock for Bowen Byram there's a stsrt. They say no sadly. Maybe if the can add a cap dump they will say yes

Do you think JB still has the autonomy to make deals?

No one on this roster should be safe. This is just a terrible mix and it isn't the new guys that were part of the terrible mix from previous seasons.

You like your soft coaches, as well as your soft players.

What type of return does this page feel is fair for Horvat?

Well played.

Lefty I’ve got a question for you... all hypothetical of course....

Would you Trade Pettersson straight across for Barzal if the opportunity arose?
- I-own_da-Northwest

Islanders probably wouldn't.

You have enough of our old core.

It's gonna vary depending on who you ask. Probably something similar to what Flames fans expect for Tkachuk.

A lot of hate for him on this page but he might be your most valuable asset not named Hughes.
