Vegas adapted to their opponents. Let's not forget they were the 4th best team in the league behind Boston, Carolina and NJ. But nobody, including me, paid much attention because they're out west, where games don't start until 10PM EST.

Anyway, as I said, Vegas adapted. Florida thought they could come out and punch them in the mouth and get away with it. Ask Matthew Tkachuk, Gudas, Bennett and Paul Maurice how that worked out for them. Vegas played just as heavy when they needed to and managed to stay out of the box and keep their focus on the goal. Meanwhile, Cheap-shot Tkachuk was racking up more PIM than ice time, and Florida forgot about the end-game and thought they could win by playing physical. When it came time for Florida to actually play some skill hockey, it was too late, and they didn't have the horses, skill set or determination of the 2022-2023 Stanley Cup Champs.

Congrats to Vegas.

It’s like James Hetfield says….”do you want heavy???” The canes will get heavy in the off-season.

      Why I Believe That We Will Trade Down

      By Martin · Posted

      I complete disagree. Who is available is extremely relevant. If you have a couple of players you would be happy with and you can still get them if you trade back, you should do that in a heartbeat. Being afraid that people will lowball you next year is an odd stance. Then you just say no next year, problem solved. In this particular draft you can get a very good player at 46. But to each their own.

      I don't think so.  Watson really screwed them up.  I see something happening, but do not know what.  Cousins could be had in a trade--but they liked Flacco when he played there.  If it were me, I would not spend the #2 pick on Sanders.  I would go after a tier 2 qb because I think Will Howard is going to start in the NFL soon, and I think Ewers was rated very high at the beginning of the year--he knows adversity and he beat out a Manning while taking Texas to 2 playoff appearances.  I am not good at picking QBs, but I think Howard's run pass option and his accuracy is going to help someone.  Stay in Ohio and play for the Browns behind Flacco--

      General Draft Rumors/Speculation Thread

      After Cam at #1, there are three or four elite players and there could be a trade--If I am the Giants and I am needed a winning season badly and I have several needs, I might trade out and pick up mid first and an extra second rounder, including a QB--while nobody is going to move up to #3 for Sanders, they might for Carter or Hunter.  If the Giants then move back, Sanders could still be in play.  That could be the trade in the top 3.  New England wants Campbell and I get that; Jacksonville at #5 could move back if someone wants Graham or Jeanty.  But barring some trade, the top 4 are probably locked in. So it could be 2 hours into the draft before we get any surprises. Nice list, by the way--you nailed it.
