Yup. As we move out of the top 10... It's quite possible: let Granato coach Eichel. Let Reino increase his trade value for the deadline. Let Power increase his skills at Michigan. And go all offensive for this season. Try to win every game 6-4.

Elway had nothing to do with that game. (the 1st one.) It was all Davis.
-
OHHHHHHHHHH!!!!! Detroit made a mistake. Yzerman is thinking Edvinsson is the next Lidstrom. He's not. I know this. Deep down inside, I know this.
-
Well... yeah... but he's with Detroit now and not Tampa. (I know, the 3 years part.) πΊ

Time zones and Force powers (magnets).

Isn't Edvinsson ALSO Hedman? According to that infographic in the other thread? Do it, Stevie. Edvinss-it!
-
I had Detroit taking Wallstedt.... but that was dependent on Eklund being off the board. The goalies will slide.
-
Expectedly whelming. Owen Power will be fine. As long as we don't rush him to 20+ minutes. Thankfully, unlike say... Risto... he'll have Dahlin in front of him. Instead of... Myers and Meszaros.
-
OK Anaheim --- Zegras + 3 + something for Eichel.... In a Palpatine voice, "Do it."
-
I think Eklund wins the Calder in his first season. That guy is the one who will put up points. Now we just need to wait until all is said and done in 15 years to judge which pick was best.

I'd have liked a forward, but alas....
-
They haven't had reason to for the last decade. But they'll get their NHL2nite groove back on soon.
-
We will learn patience.

Had a beer. Got some more beer. Let's go! That said --- is tonight the night we reset the franchise? I still think we move Eichel tonight and then move Reino in-season as a "play well, drive up your value and we'll send you where we can that is good for you". But... are we ready for it?

NHL Fire Sale: Roster Freeze Ends, 1pm eastern, 7/22

Why did they take the clumsy, unintelligible amphibian into the desert? -
Just tell them you electrocuted yourself and got thrown down a shaft by your apprentice. Then, go [monitor all the hockeys] and watch the draft. Show back up on Monday and say, "Somehow, WildCard returned." and don't explain it any further.

Wait... wait... (Biggs' final words) Arizona is doing a ROR^2 deal? -
Well.... Thanks for your time, Rasmus the Elder! It's a shame the franchise elected to tank around him (and Zadorov) -- thereby forcing him into an NHL job before he'd honed his games, and then switched his coach every other year. I don't think he was ever going to meet his true potential once all that was in place. I'll miss the tenacity and willingness to throw hits with Ovechkin, the fact that he looks like Ivan Drago (or... I guess... Dolph), and that our likelihood of scoring a Rastrick is going to be much more difficult in the future.

[The Sabres] will make point-five past light speed. They may not look like much, but they've got it where it counts. It's draft day... it's the time of dreaming big and not worrying too much about living in Tatooine a championship desert. Someday we'll get off of this rock.

I don't like Hagg's game all that much. I know Philly fans were completely underwhelmed by him. (Reading the thread, it appears his analytics match that.) But a change of scenery and playing 3rd pairing minutes for the start of this season seems fine for the short-term. I do like that Ristolainen netted a 1st, which he wasn't fetching as a rental at the trade deadline. On the Philly side -- this is a good move for them. They just got Ryan Ellis as a RHD. Ristolainen is not better than Ellis in any capacity except hits. So he fits nicely as a 2nd-pair guy for them with either Provorov or Sanheim. Good deal on their part.

Go strap yourselves in. I'm going to make the jump to draft day.
