Around The League - 2024-25 Regular Season

Does anyone actually think the Leafs are going to beat Tampa? That series might end up being tight, but when it's all said & done, it'll be Tampa - Bawstun. A much, much more interesting series.
 
Arizona, Chicago and Anaheim all won last night. It's a shame that we got a point, but still a really good night.
 
Maybe so, but I can’t see us catching them. I’d say it’s likelier that we pass Ottawa and Philly? And maybe St. Louis?

The tank doesn’t seem to be happening.

As Krusty said, Habs have a 4-5 week head start on the other tankers after Caufield announcement.

Habs need to make up 1-point per week to close the margin to 6-7 points w Hawks, Az, Ana. That provides enough time in the remaining 20GP to close the gap even further or pass them.

Assuming all goes as planned and Edmundson & Monahan are dealt at deadline (at a minimum), the D / roster will be further depleted.

Also Dach’s performance is nice & all, but he won’t be carrying the offense till seasons end, and Habs are being severely outshot & out chanced every game.

I agree the last 20 games are going to be very painful , bottom 5 is doable

I can also see Hugo dumping Anderson or Dvorak
 
If Dach emerges in the next 30 games as an actual 1a or 2 center, we can use our higher first rounder on a wing like Benson or Mychkov, rather than a consolation prize like Will Smith.

I think he is a 2C , but need an upgrade on Nick the defacto 1
