Uhhh..no?

He played 88 AHL games between 2014-16, then played 26 NHL games his rookie year, then 56.

Like we’re trying to say - 7 total career pro games then jumping to 50+ just isn’t something teams plan to do

- sbroads24


Some were arguing that he can't jump from 30-something games to 50-something games. Last I checked, the AHL is a pro league and Helleybuck played 58 his first year. When you factor in playoffs, tournaments in his time here, it isn't much of a jump for Levi in terms of the number of games played at all.

Either way, get a respectable vet and see who plays better. I think we can all agree on that.

Where has this been confirmed? I'd be shocked if they made that deal given their available cap space.

I’d say a team to watch here is Carolina.

It's insane that he played 76 games in 07/08

If I am the Devils, it has to be tempting to bring in Helleybuck as a rental if nothing else. Are they 3-1 to win the cup next year if they do that?

There has to be an element of deserving those starts. Would think that's a given.

Yes, there's a 2 edged sword.

Play well and play a lot
Play poor and play less.

Management is optimistic

Danny Briere’s kid is out of control this needs to stop
- Jet Jaguar BD

Was Danny's kid sitting next to his father while he was bullying a foreign national to give him money under the threat of Danny, everyone Danny knows and his own threat of holding a grudge forever if they didn't pay up or else?

our October Schedule starts with 6 out of 9 games against playoff teams plus Montreal and Ottawa.

We can't come out flat, then we play 28 games in 61 days, damn near every other night.

I could be way off but ill stand by it.

I dont believe they have any interest in Dumba, Kane or giving Levi 55 starts. Nothing I've heard, or asked from people who are regularly in the know would suggest any of this.

But you're 100% sure upl wont be back?

I think there's a bit of a josh allen/ back up qb who will never really test him stategy?

Levi and the other young goalie (upl) makes for a cohesive lockerroom.

2 young guys, hopefully one grabs the reigns...

Pretty sure levi wont leave camp behind upl

It went over everyone's head the "good day" by gerbe.

He was referring to the mcbeane extentions.

But hockeybuzzers....

Lots of home stands throughout the schedule.

5 of 6 to start the season

6 in a row at home in 11 days in january.

Another 4 game home stand later on.


Rangers to open should be fun.
