Thank goodness we didn't end up with Trouba. Our D a little shaky overall, but hopefully Sandin can come back mostly healthy before end of the year. Caps forward group won't have a real super star or stud top line, but the depth will be pretty crazy.

Entourage: "One Day in the Valley"

Sharks absolutely crushed the draft.

He already knows he's getting $100M+ on this deal, why not get it somewhere he can compete for a Cup, too? Just my guess at what he's thinking.

That's rough. Great fan base and a franchise just itching to climb to relevance but can't get big names to go there.

Love what we're doing so far. With adding guys to top of the lineup, roster spaces at the bottom were going to be tough to come by, and too many guys to all try and clear waivers. Getting some mid picks for guys like Lapierre and Chisholm instead of potentially losing them to waivers is smart.

Only the top 8 of the 3rd place teams go through, right?

Having more games because of more teams and more games against weaker comp as a result this is inevitable.

It'll age poorly by the end (assuming we don't end up moving him after Year 5 or something), but if cap keeps going up, it'll look less bad. When you're a team with no real terrible contracts, and everyone seems to only want to go to the same 4 teams lately (Vegas, Minny, Dallas...

Ovi plays LW. And if he comes back, it'll likely be as a 3rd line roll at 5v5/PP specialist. You move one of the right guys to their off wing on the left, and role Older Protas brother, guy that moved to LW, Ovi as your LW in the top 9. Beauvillier perfectly fine as a 4th line LW.

Tuch sign and trade to Caps. 8 years, $10.5M per. I know the cap is rising, so it'll be ok for a couple years, but that will be ugly in a few seasons. Definitely better forward group for this year, though. Crazy. Still have $12.5M in cap space.

Kinda love this. I know Kyrou had a down year last year, but St. Louis was shit. Should be quite the upgrade over McMichael, and Gastrin didn't have the most impressive year after getting drafted. Still having #18 overall from Anaheim in the Carlson trade makes moving our 1st much easier, too.

Well I was thinking both of their games combined. I read it was over 60 shots.

Has any team in the tournament had more possession/shots than Turkey with no goals?

No Bone Village, pack it up boys. Everything ruined.
