How the living hell did we get out of that sequence without giving up a goal? Korpi is a very hot-and-cold goalie, so I feel like he’ll slow down by P3 and let in a couple softies like he usually does.

With how godly Holtby has played and how poor Dobby has played I think it’s safe to say that we should trade Dobby and call up Otter then re-sign Holtby next year. Having a Holtby and Otter combo for the next couple of years would be hella fun to watch.

Edit: Holtby currently has a .947 SV% in 3 games, he’s played all of our games except 1 which in that one Dobby had a .909 SV%.

Way too streaky. He will make some great saves but then cough up like 5 on 15 shots

The game isn’t over technically, but I don’t think we’re gonna come back with the way we’re playing right now.

Jackets lose 4-1 against the Red Wings.

-We were basically asleep all game. Costly penalties all around, and not being able to stay out of our own zone.

-Korpi had a great showing for a while, until now. This is a Certified Korpi Moment(tm).

-There isn’t really much to say here.

As mentioned above I think we can all agree this be a weird October for the NHL lul

Teams we thought would have good starts are struggling while teams who were supposed to struggle woke up and chose violence.

He's only had two bad years which were the two last seasons, apart from that he's always been great. With Dallas's defensive system he'll no doubt be better because it's better than Washignton's and Vancouver's. Also Oettigner is literally dominating AHL like they're breakfast, it's borderline cruelty. Dobby is the clear cut worse of the bunch so he's got to go.

I know what you mean by a streaky goalie, that's quite literally the definition of Dobby, he's way worse than Holtby.

Buffalo. They’ve accrued more wins than I thought they would for the whole season. Frankly, they’re just giving Shane Wright to Arizona…

Oliver Wahlstrom has 2 goals tonight and 8 SOG in 13 min TOI. That’s his 3rd goal in 3 games. Trotz said the other day that Wahlstroms spot isn’t secured and guys like Ross Johnston could take his spot 😂

I think they can as I believe the lottery rule was to come in place for the 2022 Draft.

"Starting in 2022, no team will be able to win the draft lottery — for either of the first two spots — more than twice in a five-year span."

So I believe Buffalo can get Wright.

Confirmed

"Starting in 2022, no team will be able to win the draft lottery — for either of the first two spots — more than twice in a five-year span."

So basically Buffalo could potentially get Power and Wright

Not bad not bad

Well at least its not what Edmonton did

Hall, RNH, Yakupov......MCDAVID (2015) <--- League didnt think rules needed changing till now huh lul
