https://www.sportsnet.ca/nhl/article/wh ... vs-dallas/

They're only ~$750K over the cap on the 20 guys dressed.

(but usually... in the regular season... we count 23 players)

Most teams are icing 20 guys that add up to... a couple of mill below the cap?

I could be wrong as I'm not entirely sober at this time. :D
Cheers!

Alex Martinez scratched, so that’d be another 5.25 M over the cap.

Didn't Vancouver play this game with Edler and Salo?
Over the Internet, you can pretend to be anyone or anything.

I'm amazed that so many people choose to be complete twats.

Edmonton has no trouble with their system. I think they have the speed that they don’t need to dump and chase as much as the Canucks tend to. Rather the Canucks play the Oilers anyway.

I figure the Canucks odds against Nashville and Edmonton are better than anyone they would face in the Central. Glad Vegas crossed over and has to go through Dallas and one of Winnipeg-Colorado before the Canucks have to face them if they both make it that far.

Oilers let the Kings back into it at the end. Skinner is definitely solvable for LA. It’s a question of whether or not they can figure out McDavid. They put a little too much focus on him and it left Hyman all alone too often. Hyman would be a 3rd line scrub without 97…..his hat-trick goal he was a pylon beside the net behind everyone while McDavid did everything.

On the east coast Horvat’s Islanders blew a 3-0 lead, giving up 4 goals in the final period, to lose 5-3.

Oh c'mon, he's been a top-sixer for seven seasons now, his entire career!

DaFock dude, is he Swedish or something?

Evan Bouchard with the primary assist on Kempe’s goal. Defensive stalwart most certainly
