Conacher playing with the Lightning. Can't wait to see him.
Looks like some big RFA are starting to sign, too. I want Radar, though :(

I still love Connolly and wouldn't mind him in Montreal for a reasonable contract if he's bought out.

Kovalev is back in Florida! Interesting pickup for them

Always interesting to see how guys like that fit in to small system teams. I don't think he does all that much, though. More interested to see if Mueller can be an asset to them or just continue his depressing career trend.
Plus Huberdeau, of course. Florida will be a weird team, in general, especially after last season. But I do love Dineen, so here's hoping.

You think they will at least try him on the PP.

Sure, but even with as much skill as he has, I just don't think we can expect much from him, at this point. But it's a big name for a short season. Worth a shot until they can bring up some more youth next year.

Redden goes to the Blues.
Glad we didn't sign him, it leaves us super young on the blue line but I think we'll be fine once Mitchell comes back.

I remember when Redden fooled everyone into thinking he was a good d-man.

It's finally time. All the time since the trade I almost forgot Staal isn't on the team anymore. Interested/horrified to see how this will work out.

I'm surprised how many experts seem to be picking the Blues to win the West and/or the Cup. I know they're a great young team, but I don't see it.

Pens up 2-0 already. Great start to the season. It's finally hockey season.

Eh, why not? They were two points off of the top seed last year. Obviously their style of play is what is successful in the league, right now. Toss in a couple of sexy new prospects and there will be a lot of high talk for that team. They ran away with the Jennings trophy last season and, not factoring in the givens of McDonald getting hurt/Stewart disappointing/people expecting too much from young players, they have the look of four lines that can do their part offensively in addition to that.

They don't have an offensive star. I think a Cup contender needs one. Don't get me wrong, I like the team, but they don't have a dynamic scorer. They're a team built on defense and goaltending and I think the lack of reliable offense will rear its head eventually in a 4-round playoff run.
