Marner will be mvp
It is still the Eichel Era and will be for a while.
Losing Pietrangelo is bad
I know it’s 3 righties, but eichel, stone, marner is quite the stack up/ powerplay line… 3 very smart players. It should help them match up with say the oilers top end talent if they meet again in the playoffs.
I predict Marner flops in Vegas
Marner hoisting the cup in Vegas will make Salty Leaf tears even better
Is Vegas' location an unfair advantage? 😅 Everyone wants to play there.
Fla vs Vegas Fla
My 2026 stanley cup final prediction is New Jersey devils vs Vegas Golden Knights vegas in 7
My final four teams are St louis blues vegas golden knights in the west in the east Florida panthers New Jersey Devils
As a chicago blackhawks fan I have them finishing with 3rd worst record in the 2025/2026 Season
The hockey guy this was a pretty bad take. You usually have good takes, but this was objectively bad. They lost a ton of depth, haven’t replaced pietrangelo, which is a huge blow, and didn’t need to sign Marner. They also lost some key players that helped them in the playoffs with that Marner trade.
Hertl as the 3rd string center is crazy and I say that as no disrespect to Karl. Crazy the team is good enough Herlt could be that.
VGK season ticket holder here. The whole key to the forward strategy is where to put Stone. I'll take a lot of grief here, but Stone is slow and often plays injured. When he pairs up with Eichel, Eichel doesn't play his strongest. He's almost borderline lazy. I think the right pairing here is with Hertl. He knows how to work with Stone more than the others do. I'd move Hertl to Line 2 with Stone, Karlsson to Line 3 with Smith, and then swap Scorofyev with Barbie and put him on the Eichel-Marner line.
They should make the playoffs, I don't see them failing that… but making it to the finals is still a question mark due to injuries and goaltending.
Team looks old Shannon. I could see them regressing to be honest. Not much youth coming up
Maple Leafs are gonna go farther in the playoffs than Vegas..mcdavid coming next year
Can't wait to see Marner play for the VGK. Also happy that Korczak is going to get his oppurtunity as a starter. The young man deserves it. Go Knights Go
Marner and Eichel are gonna go off on the same line together.
All these depths couldn’t score for two games lol
Vegas has one semi tough guy (Kolesar) now that Hague is gone. Barbie and Hertl can dig pucks out of the corner but others are less skillful/strong in that area. Dorofeyev is particularly easy to body off a puck but his shot is money. The line combos are interesting but what's really going to be fun is the power play unit that comes out of adding Marner. Will we see 5 forwards?
Hes going to get obliterated when his Lilly ass gets back to Toronto.
Their forward group is really solid no doubt, but that D core leaves a lot to be desired. They're 1 top 4 injury away from a dumpster fire and not being able to get out of their own end
