... yeah, we should be better but we're not a playoff team yet.

Sabres goalies are a C-? Do you even watch hockey?

Final Standings

1. NY Rangers
2. Carolina
3. New Jersey

1. Florida
2. Toronto
3. Detroit

W1. Tampa
W2. * I have Buffalo but it could be anyone below. NYI and WSH made the playoffs last year but were not good seasons. Combined -54 goals on the season and had playoffs in their city is CRAZY
-----------
9th --- NY Islanders
10th -- Ottawa (on back of Ullmark)
11th -- Pittsburgh
12th -- Washington (hot start, horrible end

Add Ullmark to the lengthy list of goalies who were great until they got to Ottawa

That team is hopeless, and will be worse than last year. MTL is doing some good things but too soon. BUF is BUF. Detroit maybe?

Tampa with Yzerman in their front office did much better at drafting than Yzerman in Detroit has done so far. Hedman+Stamkos is a better duo than Detroit had too.
Buffalo might have a strong defense. Potential is there.
Ottawa keeps making bad trades in acquiring DeBrincat and Chychrun then trading them away for poor returns. Will Ullmark follow suit?
Montreal is a huge market so no idea why they are a hard sell on rebuilding. They're doing a full rebuild now and look well on track to be contenders.

Detroit

What he said is:

but goalies and scoring are still in the C- realm

Pretty sure the "and" means he is combining them to give a C-.

I’m biased, but I’d say Detroit.

My question for the group is about Ottawa. With the talent they have, why have they been so inconsistent? Maybe they are a different team with Linus in net.

I'd prob put the Flyers ahead of all of those teams...

Ottawa has all the talent and no structure. If Green and Yeo can't get a working plan and complete buy in they'll spin their wheels and be out of it by American Thanksgiving as per the usual.

Ullmark will see what's what very quickly and could be moved at the deadline.

Redwings: Probable
Sabres: Questionable
Senators: Doubtful
Canadiens: Out (Placed on Injured Reserve for next 4 years)

The season will be paused the day after the election.

When it reboots (early 2025), some of the teams predicted to do well will struggle and a few of the teams knocking on the door will get in.

September is national preparedness month by the way.

WWIII incoming.

NG will be stationed in all major cities.

Again: September is national preparedness month.

Don't be caught off guard Brothers and Sisters.
