They did appear to be uncoached. Among other problems.

This is apparently a serious headline.

Vegas GM is NHL laughingstock over Cassidy, while Oilers might be open to Mike Babcock as coach

Yup. And people wonder why players and coaches are reluctant to move/commit to Canadian markets.

Practice is being run by assistant coach and Canes legend Trevor Letowski. He’s been a Habs assistant since 2021.

Makar is out for the Avs tonight.

I think if a guy played two full seasons with the Canes we can “demote” him from legend to alumni status. Besides, those were two tough years right after the Cup. Lots on injuries and angst. He was gone before the resurgence in 2029

Yeah, if rest will help they should rest him as much as they can stomach.

NHL Tonight is going "well, OK, they have a good D, they can cope for a few games".

If the Avs were a Canadian team, it would be full on hyperventilation mode.

Dylan Coghlan just scored Vegas’ first goal. The world is on tilt.

There are so many ex-Canes in this series it was bound to be one of them, but not that one.

Vegas jumps out to a 1-0 series lead.

 

[ThinIce]

Vegas jumps out to a 1-0 series lead.

And a convincing win. Let's not let the same thing happen to us tonight!

 

[Tryamw]

But I want to jump out to a convincing win

Convincing who of what exactly? I guess it convinced me that there wasn’t going to be a sweep, which I figured would be the case anyway

I'd love to see that Aho line wake up and start scoring. The Stankoven line isn't going to win 2 more series by themselves.

I heard that last night and I was gobsmacked He drew first blood in the series and was actually on the ice for Torts. I recall his time with CAR and he was like Bambi caught in headlights— the game just moved too fast for him.
