Do you think Edmonton will continue to play like this and make the playoffs? If so, where do you see them go in the playoffs?

Yes, McDavid and Draisaitl are playing so good they could carry a high school team into the playoffs. I think they’ll make it 2nd round, but I think most would have them exiting round 1.

My questions relate to the NJ Devils:

Is there any reason to think Ray Shero is considering a coaching change in NJ?

Is pending UFA Taylor Hall a distraction to the team at this point, and should they trade him ASAP or wait til the deadline? In other words, is it clear at this point that the Devils are not a playoff team? If Hall were to get injured, his trade value could be greatly diminished.

Ray Shero should be considering, but I don’t think he is. That’s just my opinion but most GM’s wait way too long for a coaching change, barring Doug Armstrong. Taylor Hall ofc is a distraction, especially to the youngsters that look up to him. I think they should trade him ASAP.

I think Hynes was given a multi-year contract extension last season, but I don't know the exact details. The senior leadership seemed to think he's part of the long term solution.
