Harbingers

Hopefully we can get him without moving any active pieces. Though depending on his price tag… we have a lot of contracts coming up in the next two years. One of which is aho who is probably going to command 10-12M. Really in two offseason. So many of our core are up for contract in 2024-2025 season.

When’s that? Deadline coming up pretty fast.

As he is UFA though only a team that needs a goalie for a playoff run would be interested though. If SJS is our target trading partner we’d have to find a third party still in the race that needs a goalie and would be willing to work out a deal.

We don’t have the pieces yet. We have a poo ton of players that are used and decent at 4-3.

I watched the third all the way through last night(yay 7PM games), and I didn’t even feel like they had 16 SOG’s, we definitely were in control. Andersen getting some work in is good to see too. I’ll have to look up and see how many high dangers they had last night.

3-4 is a shitty defense and this will be a running issue through his tenure here.

One thing I do want to point out is they got 36 on goal. That’s a lot for prime canes defense.

Did he “waff” on purpose for svech? I know the crowd really wanted a hat trick but it wasn’t meant to be once they pulled their goalie.

Why do I feel like that’s you?

Welp I guess svech reads the huddle.

Solid shot.

They would have to sell the farm for him, way more than the other teams listed would.

Also this…

That’s a sick mask.

I see you #17, thinking about taking patches spot and getting back on the ice are you?

As for current standings we definitely have their hardest SOS currently. NJ is decently hard, Rangers is meh hard. I count 13/27 remaining games against teams that are guaranteed a playoff spot unless their wheels absolutely fall off. And only 5 games like I said that are against teams that basically have no shot at contention. So that leaves our 9 remain games vs teams that are fight for a wild card.

Basically 5/27 of our remaining games are against teams that don’t really have a shot at the playoffs. Everyone else still has a fighting chance. So basically we are running a gauntlet before we run the real gauntlet.

Holy poo. That is a competitive schedule.

So, rewatching the end of the game and the Canadian announcer telling the southern to put his shirt back on in the B-roll was just.

Doh there goes the shutout.

Some band out of Las Angeles…

He was drafted in 2017 by the oilers.

He threw a punch begrudgingly that’s all it takes. Technically I don’t think he would have gotten one if he had kept his gloves on. But once the gloves come off you are basically guaranteed a seat in the box.

Holy fug. We are just running circles around the caps.
