NYI says hold my beer to Vegas ... I see what you did. We fire Roy and recycle old coach Peter DeBoer with even less games left in the season! What reality are we in ... DeBoer back, Tortorella back

Good luck!
TBH, that is probably what needs to happen to be long term contenders and not just have a one and done future cinderella run again, or stuck being an annual 1st/2nd round team for a window and nothing to show for.

I think someone forgot Yamamoto, Puljujarvi, Yakupov, Paajarvi .. granted Hall, Eberle turned out to be OK players but even in that long stretch of basement dwelling, there were some huge misses in the 1st round drafts for the Oilers.

Celebrini isn’t going anywhere, he’s too good SJ will give him the keys to their vault.

Bédard on the other hand has not lived up to expectations there’s a chance of him jumping ship.

Hope he jumps ship to Vancouver. Wouldn't it be awesome to play with his cousin McKenna assuming Canucks are able to pick him.

Celibrini and Bedard should make it their goal to bring a Cup to this city. If I were Aqua man I’d have a PPT showing all of the popular tourist stops where they’d have a statue

Bedard is still on his ELC and is 1.11ppg this season, that's crazy if they give up on him so soon.

I think a realistic timeline of events would be that he signs an 8 year deal with Chicago this summer and if they still suck in 4 to 6 years, that's when they blow it up (or he demands a trade) and we have a shot at him while we are on the upswing (hopefully).

So the Habs, Sens (coached by Travis Green!), and Oilers will represent Canadian teams. Also surprised that Mammoth Utah, a 2nd yr team made it into playoffs. Reminds me of Vegas & Seattle.

Maybe cheer for Habs in the East and Oilers in the West? Cannot cheer for a team with a Tkachuk.

The Coyotes were trash for years, so it's pretty fun for them to turn it around as soon as they moved (only because nobody in Phoenix cared about the team.. if they cared that's not fun)

Canucks actually had a good game last night. One of the few times I was compelled to watch the highlights on youtube.

the big man got his first NHL goal last night too. there's honestly some good vibes coming from the locker room these days despite being 32nd.

I mean after they secured the worst record in the league, no need to 'tank' any more. No one will be upset if they win ... you can't go any further down in terms of rankings or move any higher in the draft. So go and do your best and be spoiler.

Absolutely, it can be fun to shit on someone else's parade lol. Finally, a season where we can't get mad at them for winning a bunch of meaningless games and ruin their draft position!

Well two more games to go and EP40 can hit 50 points. 5 more points than last season.

Woohoo, won the last home game. Honestly, the team played better after after securing the last place in the league. Classy handshake... respect to Anze Kopitar.
