Anyone knows if Risto, Monahan or Hyman plays tonight ?


Hyman's out on the ice before practice but no confirmation that he's playing, as far as I know.

Matthews then Marner but both look like they have taken huge steps forward

Plus keep in mind Matthews is the center of attention of the D every time. Like if they are choosing to shadow Matthews or Marner its Matthews every time and he still dominates the goal scoring race and keeps up with Marner in terms of points


And some people still believe Ovi and Pasta are better than Matthews lol

Leafs are guaranteed to win tonight. Montréal is wearing the reverse retros.

Personally, I find it shocking Henrique is on waivers. I dont think hes bad and his underlying numbers according to some ducks twitter accounts say hes still valuable in a 200ft game. I think hed be a great claim for some teams.

I just saw his stats for this seasons and they're bad. His contract doesn't look good at all. Maybe a team will claim him but with the flat cap it wouldn't surprise me if he wasn't claimed

i mean his underlying numbers arent terrible like his adv stats aren't bad (at least where i looked). I don't think they're great and yeah his contract is looking iffy but I think hell do decent on Detroit for example if they picked him up, or at least a place where hes not their 1C. Cause Anaheim doesn't have a 1c other than henrique (and he isnt a 1c).

Risto out for entire 4 game road trip apparently. Monahan still possible, but missed practice on Thursday and didn't take part in Friday skate. Zack attack is back jack.

Rico still has value imo. Almost all ducks have terrible offensive numbers thus far. He could be a reclamation project for a contending team that needs depth down the middle, but ANA will probably need to retain 50% in a trade to make a deal work. He scored 26G last season!!!!

Great move by the Devils. Nico is their best all around player and leads by example. He reminds me of Bergeron in that he's excellent on FO's and really solid in his own zone. His offensive game needs to keep developing, obviously, but he only just turned 22 on a team that could be contenders for a long time.

26G last season on a dismal offensive team. I can think of at least 5 teams that should look to trade for him.

Not calling him a bust and I don’t think he’s a bust, but I just find it so funny that Laf scored his second goal of the season and all of rangers twitter is like “whose everyone calling a bust now?!?!?!?!”

The Nashville Predators owners are "angry and confused" with how this season has gone but are not planning to replace general manager David Poile, CEO Sean Henry told The Athletic.

They're confused??? They have a $16M black hole down the middle with Duchene and Johansson. What did they expect? I also think it's possible (actually likely) that Hynes' days are numbered behind the Press bench. If Poile's job is safe, Hynes' job has to be in peril. Anyone who expected this team to be anything better than a bottom 3 team in the division was kidding themselves.

The fact that the entire Rangers offense has struggled probably gives fans some sense of optimism, but Laf hasn't exactly had a ton of scoring chances in the last 5 games.

They should really consider moving FF. He's UFA after next season and is one of their only top 6 who has significant trade value.

The Vegas jerseys are not beautiful, and should not be compared to the view of the rink at Tahoe. Disrespectful to the view.

IMO the Vegas reverse retros are the best jerseys in the NHL. I guess we have different tastes.
