Z still has it a full summer of conditioning has him leading the league in pts

another great game and we knock tampa off ith no datsyuk or dekeyser

Last year he did add a lot of muscle and I guess thats why his shot was off anyways he should be use to his body by now LGRW

neither were lol, i guess dougie maybe but still he just didn't wanna be there, the yotes got a great return for yandle.

Andy and ferraro will be waived probably, just don't see Ken making a trade unless it's a big one for a top four defenseman. Z-Datsyuk-Abby Tatar-Larkin-Franzen Nyquist-Richards-Sheahan Helm-Glenny-Miller Jurco scratched

Nyquist has a nmc and he isn't going anywhere for a while, if your going to suggest a trade at least make it realistic, and we aren't trading our first round pick and the Yotes aren't trading OEL and we couldn't even afford the loss we'd take if we actually did get him

Yes that's what he's doing he wants to wear 17 for Brown.

That's because the wings forced them to, with all of the young studs we got coming up plus the ones we already have the wings are one of the nhls biggest cash cows, not saying abby didn't deserve or anything just that it be really hard for the league to ignore us now with the team we have and the likes of AA Larkin and Mantha otw

That blue line is worse than Torontos, too young Faulks realgud but other than that it should be a breeze for us LGRW

it seems like neither of them have put some weight on or even trained this summer, I mean Tats will be fine but goose needs another ten pounds or he needs to get a new playing style, Z won't be here forever and he probably won't even play with him this year that second line needs some work

Parise works so hard good to see him rewarded I think we'll have a few ppg players in the league this year hoping Parise is one of em

wings 5-1, Tats(2) Green Abby Larkin, Z with three assists and first star

that would be sick! im so hype for tomorrow #gowings

We have the best prospects in the nhl no doubt, Blash has this team scoring like it's the pre cap era

Larkin looking like a number 1 center

PP is so key honestly in todays low scoring game it's more important than it ever was, Ovechkin is the PP God

Not really i'd say he passes up high percentage plays last year he seemed a little selfless to me passing up some great chances I don't think Nyquist is a sniper and we shouldn't consider him one he has the talent to be a 30 goal guy but will probably end up being a 25 goal scorer with 40-50 assists not this season but in the future for sure, he may take a different step under blash who knows, and it's not a big deal if he doesn't have a point in pre season.. it's pre season lol Tatar is a shooter and loves to score and has great passion for the game i'm not surprised to see him lead the league with goals it is pre season, compare the shooting to Z and D's shooting Tatar(Z) Nyquist(D) Nyquist may have had a lot of shots and was the PP guy last year but I think thats because Babs was pushing him towards that role. The year before he had many breakaways and like you guys are saying more space but I don't think we'll see him go hard like that again until Z and D retire or both get hurt or just stop producing imo, I feel like he has to be the GUY if you want him to produce at a PPG pace i'm hoping Blash is telling him to shoot shoot shoot, don't need another playmaker right now and definitely don't need him with Z I think he'd be better off playing with Tats and Richards.

Top five d-man in the league i'd say in no particular order Suter Weber Keith Hedman Doughty

He can provide offense but what is he going to do defensively? I'm just thinking of match ups we are going to have to deal with I don't think he's a washed up scrub but how will he matchup against a Malkin, Johnson Monahan? I'm just saying idk how that will hold up I watched that game and he looked great but he didn't really have to play against anyone, also Tatar has been great so far

Yeah seriously this pre season should prove it to Kenny, some of these kids need to be up full time playing, make some room from what i've seen Larkin looks much better and more capable as a second line center than Richards I mean even Sheahan would be better there but like always we'll ice the old goats team and get outplayed most nights and will have to rely on Jimmy or Petr to bail the team out i'm not trying to rag on Richards but we can't match this guy up against most of the other 2nd line centers in the league.

Bickell will be gone, and the Hawks have a few young talented forwards

Hopefully Z dominates tonight, and please no Kane jokes tonight.

Can't wait for the game tonight

They won't be rotating into a fourth line role.. one will play on the third line and they will take turns on that line, they couldn't rotate in to millers spot they aren't grinders and can't pk and if helm isn't ready Nosek may make the team unless like you guys are saying Larkin is too good, he aced everything now lets see what he can do in the pre season.
