All I know is that Alexis Lafrenière, Kaprizov, Fiala, Calen Addison, Kappo, Ek, Greenway and Kunin would be a young core to get pretty damn excited about.

Is this Lafreniere supposed to be a star from day one? 18 years old and ready to be a star already? Cool. Let's get him.

We have exactly 1 top six forward on this team in Fiala and he's trying to do too much since he has no help. Good thing Guerin is getting to see what he has now before he re-ups any more of the dead weight on this team. Now the question is.....will they lay down tonight or actually put out an honest effort? My guess....break out the clubs boys.

BETTMAN!!!

Or are we missing the first period while this game is on NBCSN and NHL network?

Getting totally out played in the 2nd period. Now is the time to pull out the Gorg playbook and hope to keep it tied as long as possible.

Time for some luck. 1 in 8 shot for the #1 pick.

Yup, this team needs some young top end talent!

Status: offline 		A blurb from Russo in The Athletic:

Guerin has got a lot of work to do to get this team faster, better up the middle and between the pipes. The good news is they’ve got a shot at the No. 1 overall pick Monday. Actually, who are we kidding? They’re battling against Edmonton, Pittsburgh and the Rangers for the lucky BINGO balls. They’ve got no shot.

I think this pretty much sums it up for us.

You notice the guys on the ice at the time?
Yeah, me neither
Nice send-off Koivu. Weak fails at getting pucks out. Story of our lives here.
Pathetic end to a career that was all about him feeling good about himself.
We somehow find the few hockey players in the world who would not cut off their left nut for a Cup.
Lucky us.

I keep going back to the Jeff Jesser comment. To paraphrase ... please give me Canadian players. Canadians die a little inside when they lose a hockey game.
