By the way, hard to believe the Hawks have only played 1 game so far.
Have to disagree. The Kings are playing like crap. Gave up 6 goals in their first game and blew a 3-0 lead in their 2nd. I haven't been impressed and don't see them making any noise.

Not to mention the 8 that they gave up last night to the Canucks.

Canucks could be a success story this year. It'll be interesting to see the numbers Quinn Hughes puts up this year. The potential seems unlimited with him.

He's got a better shot at the Calder than Jack.

This game has been awesome. 7 goals in 1st period. If Tampa gives Shatty a contract offer for renewal, he should just take it. He’ll never have more fun anywhere else.

Anybody want to catch a good OT, watch the Flames and Dallas last night. Good OT action. You got to give Radulov credit, for a Russian, his intensity is pretty high. Almost up there with Ovechkin. Hard to believe he was considered a problem child. The guy plays with passion.

He was only considered a problem child because he straight up left his team while under contract to play in Russia. I don't think anyone ever questioned his compete level. Still, he's a player I'd never really want in my organization after breaking a contract.

Makes you wonder what he could have gotten done with them the last few years instead of being with the Rags

On Radulov, I remember it being this huge deal when he signed with Nashville late in the year in like 2012, only for him to get drunk the night before games and play like absolute shit in the playoffs. Never liked him since then.

In Radulov's defense, it was incredibly rude of Barry Trotz to ask him to come back on the defensive side of the red line every once in a while.

Oilers win again..5-0 to start the season. Banking points early is always a good thing.

Tippett and Holland paying off early. James Neal was a gift of a trade for a team that had very little in options to add scoring.

I've heard it suggested that the first day of the playoffs should be scheduled with staggered start times from noon to 9:30 like the first weekend of March Madness. I absolutely love that idea, but probably won't ever happen.
