I don't think anyone expected Vegas to be as good as they were after their expansion draft. Regardless, I could see Seattle being a bubble playoff team if their goal tending and defense holds up.

We're lucky we've had such great commentating over the past several years. Watching the Root Streams broadcast last night was tough.

OEL looks good. Canucks capable of thrashing an AHL team.
Nothing to worry so far.

OEL actually looked pretty good tonight. Really quite similar to a younger Edler who would rock people with solid hits.

Eriksson is looking pretty good too.
I guess each player just needed a fresh start, lol

he probably couldn't handle the stress of our market. coming in with a 6M contract and not producing much of anything would kill anyone's self confidence.

Not sure how credible this source is but that puts Petey right into UFA at end of the contract?

I'm good with that, we have like a 3 year window max right now, I don't care if he's a UFA in 5 years. Someone else will have come along by then and the cap will be much higher hopefully.
I love Petey but he isn't a superstar... or hasn't show he's one yet... a star yes, but not a superstar.

He exploded onto the scene and had a pretty killer 1st year, basically did exactly the same in the 2nd with no advancement really, 3rd year struggled to begin then got injured. I haven't seen the next step yet but can't really say what his ceiling is right now, will and can he be better? Absolutely, how much though remains to be seen.

Seems like other teams figured out how to play against him. While getting similar points in his 2nd season, he looked like he was fighting a lot harder to get his goals. He was simply shut down a lot in the 3rd season.
He's only proven to be a 70-80~pt player right now. But hyped up like he's a 90-100pt player.
Actually the way how his 3rd season slid, I think he still needs another full season to prove he's at least a legit pt/g player..

8 to 8.5 for 5 years? That’s perfectly reasonable and a no brainer. Get it done (Hughes too) and get these guys into the preseason so they hit the ground running in the regular season.

If you, as a GM, need someone you signed THIS off season to retire for family reasons in order to sign the two stars you already knew you needed to sign…… I don’t even know what to say about that.

there's ~$16M-ish available to sign both the kids after putting Ferland to LTIR...if Hamonics cap hits gets moved off the books, they'll have almost $20M to sign the kids and find a replacement
