5 comments
team record: reino
leader in goals: reino
leader in assists: lundell
biggest improvement: mackie or lundell
biggest disappointment: tarasov or marchand
team you fear the most: none lol
playoff expectations: ecf atleast
Record: 82-0
Leader in goals: Benny/Reinhart tie
Leader in assists: Lundell
Biggest improvement: Depth steps up with barkov absent
Biggest Dissapointment: Uber prices leaving the game goes up due to us now have 7 fans at every game
Team you fear the most: the biased playoff halftime announcers making my ears bleed
Playoff expectations: 3-peat
Team Record: 101 pts
Leader in Goals: Reino
Leader in Assists: Marchand or maybe even Seth Jones
Biggest Improvement: Seth Jones, Mackie and Lundell. I think Seth is capable of putting up 60-70 pts if he stays healthy and gets pp1 time all season
Biggest Disappointment: No one
Team You Fear the Most: Vegas and honorable mention to Winnipeg and LA. Those teams stylistically have always been difficult for us
Playoff Expectations: With Barkov 3peat. Without Barkov I still expect us to contend but it wouldn’t really be surprising if we get bumped before the ECF
Record: 48–30–4 (100 points / 2nd Atlantic)
Goals leader: Reinhart (45)
Assist leader: Verhaeghe (40)
MI: Samoskevich (I think he will step up and earn a top 6 spot)
Biggest Disappointment: Already happened, which is Sasha missing the Olympics. The only thing that would make it worse is if Chucky also misses the Olympics.
Team I fear the most: Probably the Cats’ 2nd round opponent, that’s what might be the biggest hurdle to a three-peat come playoffs
Playoffs expectations: I could either see the team three-peating as much as getting bounced in the 2nd round.
What a game last night they fought like it was Game 7 Finals for a pre-season warmer
