James Neal scored two late goals for Vegas for the comeback over the Stars. I love it. Miss you, Real Deal James Neal.

Jackets beat the Islanders 5-0. Great way to start the season with a shutout by Bob.

The Blackhawks dominated the Pens. Miss you, Saadfather.

Tonight I will be watching the Pens/Preds game as both teams look for their first win.

Tuesday Night I'll be going to Nashville for the home opener against the Flyers.

[Dapper Dan]

I’m biased, but I’d like to see Neal as the Vegas captain.

I don’t expect them to hold up, but interesting standings so far. It would be wild to see Vegas make the playoffs.

I think Kyle Turris finally made it inside the country. Ugh. (Thanks, Trump.) His first game in a Preds uniform should be Saturday against the Penguins and I'll be there. Sens fans absolutely love Turris. I'm pretty excited about the pick up.

[wayninja]

It'll be fun to watch Duchene play his former team in his first 2 games as a Senator.

This team is deep. Much improved over last season. We picked up Turris and Bonino, which were huge upgrades. I'm glad we do have depth, because injuries always happened. We lost some good players during the playoffs last year. I don't think they will overlook the Avs because I think they realize how good that team is. I think PK called MacKinnon the MVP this year. We already know how good Girard is and how Wilson turns it up a notch in the playoffs. I'll be there Wednesday to cheer them on.

Couturier gets hat trick for Flyers in Game 6 vs. Penguins with torn MCL

https://www.nhl.com/news/flyers-couturier-provorov-play-with-injuries-in-game-6-vs-penguins/c-298199990?tid=297170864


PHILADELPHIA -- Ivan Provorov summed up the sacrifice sometimes needed in the Stanley Cup Playoffs in one sentence.

"As long as my arm was attached to me, then I was playing," the Philadelphia Flyers defenseman said after a season-ending 8-5 loss to the Pittsburgh Penguins in Game 6 of the Eastern Conference First Round at Wells Fargo Center on Sunday.

Provorov played 20:31 despite injuring his left shoulder crashing into the boards in the third period of Game 5 on Friday.


Teammate Sean Couturier revealed Sunday that he played Games 5 and 6 with a torn MCL in his right knee. All the forward did was score the winning goal in Game 5 and have a hat trick and two assists in Game 6.

"I just tried to lay it all out there, give it all I had," said Couturier, who missed Game 4 after colliding with defenseman Radko Gudas in practice Tuesday. "It's too bad we didn't come with the results we wanted."

Hes all correct.
They were able to fill their team with starters and top 6 forwards and top 4 d men. Most teams do not have all of that and they did it all so that Vegas would win and get a big fan base. It is imperative that Vegas do really well (which I am a proponent of). I cant wait for a quick weekend to vegas to watch the avs or broncos. That is going to be so much fun.
