He seemed unsure but optimistic. Prolly why the Stamkos signing is delayed he needs to see how good this team is. I think they'll be good

Hopefully for you you don't play high stakes poker often , because if that's how you read people you'll be Evander Kane in debt.

Other than Father Time, I don't see how this squad would be any worse than last season's.

Exactly they haven’t improved while other teams like Buffalo Ottawa and even Detroit have.

Well if they have $1.5 million in cap space come TDL then the GM will do what he always does, trade away the future to bring in some help.

Stop being delusional.. You know damn well your team isn’t as good as it was and your time has come to suck. Ottawa Buffalo and Detroit are on the up while y’all are on the down. Won’t make the postseason.

I don't know if you recognized this but Tampa is much better than the 3 teams you listed. Buffalo and Ottawa may have slightly better offenses but Tampa defense, goaltending, grit and team structure clears them by a mile.

Yep, we will see TB make it, Ottawa and Detroit miss and Buffalo maybe make it (depending on Levi and how Florida and other WC competitors do)

The high-paid guys are stars, and if they show out this team is still dangerous. If one of those guys gets injured, that's when it gets dicey. But you can't put any of that blame on the front office or the organization. Tampa has played their cards perfectly during their window. The Jeannot trade is mystifying but you have to be willing to make moves like that to keep your window open for as long as possible.

Habs fan trolling. Bolts aren’t what they once were but still have the top end talent to get into the playoffs. Got enough rings in the locker room to prove they know how to win.

IMO it goes like this for the east:

Atlantic:
Toronto
TB
Boston/Buffalo

Metro:
Carolina
NJ
NY

Wild Card:
Pittsburgh
Boston/Buffalo/Florida/NYI/WSH

IMO Boston gets on of those spots (3rd or a WC spot) with Buffalo, Florida Isles and Caps (possibly Ottawa) competing for the last spot (either third in the Atlantic if they are in that division or the final WC spot)

Your observation of Brisebois was utterly ridiculous. If that's how you read people for your financial health stay away from the poker table.

If this is your talent evaluation ability as well as your people readiskills you'll be lucky to be the future GM of a Burger King.
