    I'm a full believer though that nothing that happens now will matter when the playoffs get here. So despite all of my 'sky is falling' reactions recently, I still think the Preds have a shot. Kyle Turris still sucks though.

    I don't know about that second part. It takes more than a player or two to be a contender, and Colorado still has a lot of work to do before they are a complete team. Nashville's core is locked down for years, and still young. The window is still wide open beyond this season.

    He's teaching it to the rest of the Avs and life is good

    Regular

    I've been an Avs follower for a few months now and I'm not prepared for anything but sky-is-the-limit optimism

    The Avs will make the playoffs and go 16-0, or miss the playoffs and draft 1-2. There are no alternatives

    Avs should be pretty loaded moving forward. Two lottery picks plus Makar added to their current group should be quite good

    wonder who their goalie will be

    Regular

    A Pavel Francouz-Grubauer tandem looks great to me

    There will be a couple playoff teams that crash out because of goaltending willing to overpay for Varlamov

    I mean Turris hasn’t been great but it’s hard to argue that trade wasn’t the right deal at the time

    It was, and honestly he was great through the rest of the regular season, and actually made Fiala and Smith better. That line was great. Then he disappeared in the postseason and hasn't been found since.

    Just a friendly reminder

    I thought the Turris trade was an absolute slam dunk at the time. Can't really blame Poile when he made a move that anyone in his position would have made.

    As much as I want the Blue Jackets to crash and burn and just miss the playoffs, as many writers and podcast people have said - if that happens then no GM/team will ever be as risky / bold as Columbus was this year. That part would suck because teams making risky deals is always fun.

    I knew the Wings were gonna get a boost after the NCAA signings. Super happy for Larks potting 30 on the season but Jesus fucking Christ guys... please let that be the last win of the season..

    Hirose is a stud though. Very excited to see how he progresses.

    Oh shit. Thanks for the heads up. Seems like you’ve been to Van Andel before so do you know if the beers are like 12-16 ouncers or smaller plastic cups?

    Unbelievably stoked to spend the night in GR and finally hit up the Founders brewery.
