ilya sorokin is an absolute cheat code


If only he played for a team that was capable of even contending for a cup

It is time to start recognizing Brock Nelson as a top 20 center

I know it’s only been 4 games, but Timo Meier has been one of the worst forwards in the NHL at 5v5.

To be fair he's always had slow starts, but I think people had slightly more expectations with that contract.

That’s true, I thought the contract was solid when it was signed. Hopefully he lives up to it

Last season 0.931sv in 39 games for the Wild including a 0.921SV in the playoffs

Would have been the perfect guy to build around as hes still only 25

Cause Korp and Tablot just were not the guys. Korp is just to inconsistent

Ottawa gave up on him to quick

With Vasy and Bishop before him I kinda forgot what it's like to not trust your goalie when watching hockey.

Anxious.

Can't believe Tampa still hasn't gotten a goalie with how valuable these points are.

I think they made a list of all the number 3 goalies team are carrying and planned to nab one. But no body waived their goalies and they don't have the picks.

Plus, goaltending hasn't really cost them a game yet.

Give them a 3rd round pick for literally anybody. Both of their goalies are below .900%. These games could be what allows them to make the playoffs or not.
