Hockey and football are different. You can get 2-3 good to great football players in the draft to start and contribute as rookies. Hard to do that in hockey. You can't tear a hockey team to nothing and expect to build it back with talent and depth quickly....
Maybe he wants to play for a winning team.Obviously better coaching, better PP, new 2nd line...better goaltending...should make the playoffs.....basically a better team? We've been hoping for this for a few years now
I've noticed hockey broadcasts are more chat and conversation than play by play......it's very annoying and makes it hard to watch...having 3 people makes it that much worse.
which is proving to be extremely difficult....but you're right about just getting in.....playoffs are such a big step up from regular season...really miss going to those games
