Celebrini looked incredible out there, for an 18 year old #1 center, it’s honestly very surprising how well he played
Just saw a Barkov injury update. It’s a bad sprain but no significant damage so he is “week to week” at the moment
Be nice to see Kahkonen get his game back. The Sharks really took something out of him. 🤔
Let’s go Utah!
That Guenther kid would look nice in a Vancouver jersey, damn..
Well I hope Hellebuyck enjoys playing 75+ games this season and gets blamed for the team giving up on him in the playoffs
It looks like I may have been wrong about Guenther. After seeing him in the WHL, I just didn't see him as "that much better" than some of the other guys. But he seems to have elevated his game. Now he's looking like he might be a steal!
Celebrini is terrifying with the puck on his stick. Reminds me of young Kane. He is much scarier than Bedard at this point.
On a website I'd never heard of, I saw a trade proposal of Timothy Liljegren (2 years remaining at $3 million) for Rasmus Ristolainen (3 years at $5.1 million) and a fourth-round pick. This gave me a good laugh. A 4th is not worth an extra $9.3 million of bad contract. Why would Toronto make this trade?
I think Celebrini is 2nd fastest after Lemieux, not 1st.
How did Vegas take him back, he was supposed to go right into the minors without clearing after the oilers got him back.
I thought it was interesting that Kyle Connor set an NHL record by scoring in seven straight opening-night games.
As a Guenther fantasy owner I am very happy 😂. Kid looks like a star
well…if it makes you feel any better… Vancouver probably would have picked up Tyler Boucher lol 😛 …or at least thinking that could make you feel better!
Vancouver just knows the Flyers panic when playing backup goalies. I expect to count 10 high and wides in tonight's game.
Like how did you shoot it 8' over the goalie? I was aiming for the corner. Of what, the rink?
Anze Kopitar is on pace for 246 goals…
So Edmonton just loses a player because two teams teamed up to coordinate waiver claims… Weird the second team suddenly no longer wanted the player.
Describing Georgiev and Annunen as "entrenched" is definitely too strong. No one in Colorado wants to see a repeat of last years goalie situation. I was very happy to see Georgiev get pulled after 5 goals on 16 shots in the opener. Unacceptable
What the Avs have in mind is moving on from Georgiev if they can. He just isn’t consistent enough to be a starting goalie
Kahkonen should come back to Minnesota
Makes me sad the jets kept comrie, he has never been good and he will still continue to be the same. Not the back up I would have thought we'd stick with
It's wild that Liljegren and Sandin were once hyped up as the future of Toronto's blueline.
My gut is telling me Liljegren goes to Utah. No reason just a feeling.
To the best of my knowledge the only injury on the Avalanche is that there is more holes in our defense and goaltending than a golf course. I’m maybe a bit surprised but I’m totally on board with this move! It will set a fire 🔥 under Georgiev to step it up or risk being traded. It will force Annunnen to step it up or go back to the AHL. I would be thrilled if Kappy started against Columbus after that frustrating start in Vegas.
Pronounce 'Pen-yoda'
Liljegren's career's a mess at this point. He was so good so young, they barely gave him any chance for a while… and then he starts getting hurt and now he's a shell of himself. Not a good sign for his career at this point.
Liljegren to Philly, please and thank you!
Way to go Vegas!
Drouin is injured in Avs as well.
Edmonton could use Liljegren…but no cap space…
Thank you for clearing things out about Lavoie's circus. After 2 offer sheets, I guess Bowman won't have it easy.
I aint gonna lie, i got much more love for celebrini strictly on him not being ran down our throats, like bedard is/was
Losing Kahkonen might look like a setback for Winnipeg, but not really.
They gave up no assets to sign 2 UFA goalies as their potential backup, As not one of the richest teams, they aren't paying the guy who lost 1 million real dollars to take starts away from their developing goalies in the AHL.
THE RING GENERAL, GUENTHER!
Liljegren getting 3 mil per to not play. Leafs nation is still confused about that extension.
There’s no other team in this league that’s going to help Stan Bowman out . That is why there was a second claim so that Vegas was able to reclaim him. It’s just a bunch of GM’s getting together to go against the Oilers . All you have to do is look back to the offer sheet. Nobody wants Stan Bowman in this league.
Interesting that when Edmonton tried to waive and claim Lavoie, a third party got involved, but when Vegas wanted him, the third party of a sudden doesn't want him anymore. I'm starting to think the other GMs really do hate Bowman. I'm joking…….mostly haha
Kahkonen looked OK in Winnipeg, mostly scrimmage and practice I watched. I thought we could live with him as G #2. He was notably overshadowed by Comrie, who looks about the same as he did in his previous 2 stints. What has Colorado got up their sleeve now?
Are we sure Lavoie didn’t get waived and claimed again during this video🙃?
Edmonton still gets Lavoie every second weekend.
Lavoie's new nickname is pingpong😅
Petry down so Holl up. Re-arranging the deck chairs. Quit screwing around Y. Fester has to go.
Trading Lilly will prove to be a mistake for the Leafs, calling it now
That OEL trade will forever haunt Vancouver. Every single person knew Guenther would be a special player. Just another Jim Benning masterclass trade.
Liljegren would be a good fit for the Marlies…
And celebrini to injured reserve. Man it’s tough being a sharks fan.
