kind of expecting it as bergevin said the same thing with kovalchuk


Yeah but Kovalchuk was bad in the playoffs for Washington, I think he changed his mind because of it

Montréal didn’t have any room for Kovalchuk because they signed Toffoli, who they hadn’t planned on and just fell into their laps.

So much pain. It’s was a phenomenal year in Montréal, you were/are a fan favourite. He’s a great guy and leader.

Perry is very slow for an NHLer, but I’m not exaggerating when saying he has top-5 hands in the entire league. He’s second to maybe only Joe Pavelski in being the best PP net-front presence in the league. He can easily put up 40 points for the Bolts next year.

Also Tampa Bay’s 1st unit will be the best powerplay the world has ever seen. Better than any hockey team ever assembled, even on the international level:

Perry
Stamkos - Point - Kucherov
Hedman


Oilers pp has been the best the past two years and just got better because Hyman>>>>Chiasson

Lets pump the breaks a little here. Dude hasnt hit double digits in goals in 5 years so lets not act like he isnt a 25 PT 4th line guy. Pavelski comparisons are ridiculous, dude was practically a ppg player this year.
