Time for Tampa vs Detroit part II. Shame everyone on Tampa is hurt.
Guys who is the stupidest player in the NHL? My guess is Dustin Brown, he seems have around 65 IQ. Next year Pulju will challenge him for that title though

Seriously, who the fuck loses so badly to the Senators when your trying to make the playoffs?
If ________ wins the lottery, Auston Matthews will __________.
Toronto - Put up good numbers but will eventually be ran out of town by the media
Edmonton - Kill himself
Columbus - Bust
Vancouver - Be sat for Linden Vey, and then be traded East for scraps
Winnipeg - Suffer from severe depression and become an alcoholic and drug abuser
Calgary - Become Brian Burke's new son
Arizona - Be ecstatic and lead his hometown team to becoming a legitimate franchise
Buffalo - Be a key piece of a dynasty
Montreal - Be converted to wing and be considered a bust for years
Colorado - Be the 2nd best forward from the draft
New Jersey - Leave during free agency
Ottawa - Be forgotten about
Carolina - Start learning French
Help me think of one for Boston now

Have pity for Chia and Mclellan. They didn't create this mess and now their careers are going to be decided by if they can fix it. For some reason Lowe, the brains behind this entire rebuild, is still being paid to work in the management, and so is Craig Mactavish. The real problem lies with the owner, Katz. He must be in cahoots with Bettman or something. Bettman wants the California teams to win because their fans need that to get better established and not quit watching. While the Canadian teams can be shit, with one good year every decade, and the fans will still support them.

Nah, Reinhart still has potential to be a bottom pairing depth dman in the NHL. He was never projected to be an offensive contributor, so judging him by offensive metrics is stupid. The question will be how much does he want to play in the NHL? Is he willing to be a low paid depth dman? Or does he want to be a top pairing guy in some obscure European league? I just wish Chia didn't give up a frist (Barzal) and a 2nd rnd pick for him.

Chia got fired from Boston for a reason, he made a long series of bad trades. Seguin, Boychuk, and Connolly were all laughably bad. Plus there is the poisonous influence of Mact, Lowe, and Green(the real driving force behind the Reinbust trade) who are all inexplicably kept on for reasons unknown. Plus your owner. I would be worried were I an Oilers fan desu.
