  1. Today
  2. Come on guys, Xhekaj has got to be better than John Scott up front. 🤣🤣
  3. Ok. Thanks. I seem to recall there were some writers questioning why Price was going to the Olympics if he missed some regular season games before the tournament. Forgot it was the same year as the Kreider cheap shot.
  4. I can't disagree with anything you said. I just think it might be fun to watch an opposing defensemen trying to handle Arber in front of the net.
  5. I know the Habs have a backlog, but FWIW I never liked the idea of moving a D to W, except maybe in the case of marginal guys of the Yves Racine variety, where they become the 12th or 13th FW. Leave guys to develop in their natural positions if at all possible. I’d rather we send a guy down, even if he’s NHL ready. No young player ever died of too much AHL time.
  6. I also have little doubt that Arber will be in the starting lineup against Toronto.
  7. Not a bad idea, he is good with the puck and a good skater. His weakness is defending so you might be on to something.
  8. If we are thinking about trying a Dman on the wing then how about Barron? Barron is pretty slick with the puck
  9. Fair enough, Roy certainly has the smarts and puck skills to play with high end linemates but I think Kapanen's skating ability will allow him to keep up with the pace a little better. Anyway I know Marty has said a lot of good things about Roy so you could very well turn out to be right on this one.
  10. I don’t mind that line up, but I think Dvorak stays in. (A trade would change it) I was not able to watch many games last few years… I was impressed by Heineman this preseason. Barron I wasn’t enamoured with in pre season, but he is a RHDman. Hope we draft a RHDman in 2025 draft with a first round pick. It’s hard to watch M Michkov playing this well and B. Tkachuk for that matter. I am really bummed out with the injuries. Hard for me to even get excited to post about the upcoming season. If there was talk about a Dmen playing wing, Xhekaj would be fun to watch for sure. Might be cool to see that and bring up Mailloux if we were down more forwards or playing a game we thought might include a donnybrook or two. We will need to get the special teams working quickly or a lot of teams will be willing to trade penalties with us or get us off our game by taking liberties on our players. If Anderson isn’t scoring, maybe he could take the heat off Xhekaj and lay down some law too.
  11. I'm also factoring in what Roy has done in the AHL and 20+ NHL games last year.
  12. Kapanen has impressed me more than Roy but I guess it's Marty's opinion that matters.
  13. What percentage of his contract Lehner is entitled to is based on details we don't know. Whatever that answer is though, it should count on the cap. Vegas as a team shouldn't benefit cause Lehner's issues are mental health and Legal, where teams like Montreal have to keep Price on the cap cause his issue is his knee. The team shouldn't get a benefit here.
  14. Switch him and Roy if you want but I do think Roy has earned a top 6 spot.
  15. I think Barron has look decent in the exhibition games I have seen and can't be sent down. They need to give him a chance to sink or swim so he needs to play. I think Mailloux is the odd man out at this point but his time will come.
  16. Is Newhook playing the right side something he is comfortable with?
  17. I get where you are coming from ... but, I-M-O, Mailloux has not earned starting the season on the roster based on his play in TC.
  18. This has nothing to do with the player's situation and everything to do with the favourable cap treatment of VGK. I don't know what could possibly justify exempting Vegas from the fundamental principles of the salary cap.
  19. Don't necessarily disagree with you, but absent the full details and rationale neither can I agree.
  20. Caufield - Suzuki - Slafkovsky Roy - Dach - Newhook Armia - Dvorak - Anderson Kapanen - Evans - Gallagher scratch - Pezzetta, Barre-Boulet Matheson - Guhle Hutson - Savard Struble - Barron scratch xhekaj Montembault Primeau would be my roster to open the season....
  21. Hage 0pts 0shots mid 3rd period, down 4-1 Minnesota State University at University of Michigan 7:00 pm Michael Hage - Minn. St. Mankato vs Michigan DI Men's Ice Hockey Game Summary - October 4th, 2024 | NCAA.com Ended game 0pts 0 shots -3 in 5-2 loss
  22. My issue is the amount paid in the settlements to Evander Kane and to Mike richards counted against their team's cap. Here we have, for the first time ever, Vegas is paying the player, with no cap hit, but it still counts against the player's 50% share of HRR. Sorry, that's B.S. If money is being paid, it should count on the cap.
