Keep expectations in check. Patrick is just off a surgery that takes a while to get your game back, has only felt 100 pct for about three weeks and is in his first NHL camp to boot. May take him a little while to settle in. Two things do stand out, though: very fast shot release and he sees the ice well.

I just want to be able to see the entire ice surface and to have a headset with sufficient wire. Didn't have either in 2009.

You just have to control what you can control and work with the rest. I remember you being super uncomfortable in 2009 and I think that started with them kind of "hanging you out to dry" on the dress code. You recovered nicely once it became about the players and the play.

What's funnier is you'll have the same amount of Cups with "King" Henrik then: zero

Could you work in a few Hockeybuzz name drops?

"You know, when you're ranking these young players, a top-10 list by BiggE is a good place to start..."

"Don't forget that, as MJL has said, these kids aren't goign to be given anything."

"Hey, have you played Destiny 2 yet?"

- jmatchett383


Would it be too late at that point to try and sell off your tickets? Maybe half price?

I do wonder... if Sanheim, Morin and Hagg all make Hexy's job difficult with deciding who stays up, and they all do stay up, does Hexy trade Amac with salary retained for whatever he can get

I just think they'll want to send him down for another half season or so to work on his defensive game away from the puck. He's most likely already an NHL player with the puck.

Agreed. I see him as the first call-up guy.

There's something inside that they can't get to, that they can't touch. That's yours.

Agree. I think they want him and Myers playing all situations and handling tough minutes.

I know they have some vets in Brennan and O'Neil but i see Sanheim, Myers and Friedman playing a lot and in different situations

But middle of the road prospects that will never be elite are a dime a dozen brush
