dudacek Posted September 10, 2014 Report Share Posted September 10, 2014 Pro-rated for the lockout, Colorado improved by 45 points last year. Any bottom-feeder capable of a similar turnaround this year? Florida? Edmonton? The Islanders? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drnkirishone Posted September 10, 2014 Report Share Posted September 10, 2014 I think Edmonton could make a climb up the rankings. If they don't do it this season.... one or more of their first rounders in the past 5 years are going to be shown the door. I know the Islanders are the favored pick to have a jump up the standings. But I really think things are gonna implode on that team. I see a few players regressing from high years and I think Halek will continue the tradition of horrible goaltending on the island. Florida I don't know. They got Lou back so I guess anything is possible for them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A former minor league hockey player has been arrested on charges he sold illegally obtained prescription painkillers to former hockey player Derek Boogaard of the Rangers and the Minnesota Wild who died of an accidental overdose. Jordan Hart was arrested Tuesday, Sept. 9, 2014, on charges in a federal indictment unsealed in New York. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrueBlueGED Posted September 10, 2014 Report Share Posted September 10, 2014 Pro-rated for the lockout, Colorado improved by 45 points last year. Any bottom-feeder capable of a similar turnaround this year? Florida? Edmonton? The Islanders? I maintain the Isles will be much I proved. I think Florida also has a chance to be less terrible. Edmonton maybe, but their goaltending is still so uncertain. Ironically, I think the Avs are poised to come back down to earth a bit. Still a playoff team, but my money is on a bottom-three seed.

Their goalie situation looks fine though with scrivens and fasth. Edited September 10, 2014 by Heimdall Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I really should get a side bet going with you and LGR on the Isles, because I'm not seeing it. Edmonton is the team that has the most in common with the Avs. There's a reasonable chance they'll be better, but I don't see a huge leap unless one of their goalies really turns it on.

LGR4GM Posted September 11, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 11, 2014 Yeah, I really should get a side bet going with you and LGR on the Isles, because I'm not seeing it. Edmonton is the team that has the most in common with the Avs. There's a reasonable chance they'll be better, but I don't see a huge leap unless one of their goalies really turns it on. I'm in. The Isles added more than the Oilers did this offseason. Ryan Strome was a revelation to end the year. Reinhart should make the roster and possibly Pulock although that is less likely. Scott Mayfield will start in NY most likely. They have Dal Colle in the system which will be a year away at least but still around. Tavares is coming back. They added Kulemin and Grabovski two guys with good puck possession numbers. Halak as a GT is better than Nabokov was. They improved ever position they could and last year were terrible because of defense both with the forwards and the defenders themselves. I don't see that being the same issue especially with Halak in the net. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drunkard Posted September 12, 2014 Report Share Posted September 12, 2014 Canadian pull-ups? Are those the ones where you get to dip your hands in maple syrup first to help keep your grip or the ones where you stand on the back of a moose and they assist you in getting your chin over the bar?

That Aud Smell Posted September 15, 2014 Report Share Posted September 15, 2014 (edited) Canadiens go with four A's, and no C. LeBrun tweet said Sens' are considering doing the same. Also, there is something genuinely weird about that photo. My favorite elements, the guy second from the left (I will not pretend to know who he is) has terrific Euro-trash white shoes (so, yeah, he must be a Euro). Markov looks like he came for a Bond villain casting call. Edited September 15, 2014 by That Aud Smell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
