So…revenge vs Calgary tonight?
- LordHumungous

Haven't really looked at their lineup, until today, couldn't figure out why they're so bad (Calgary), but really they don't have much beyond Monahan and Gaudreau, no second line.

Henrik and Daniel are producing more than Backlund and Tkachuk, so there's your answer, a one line team just like the Canucks when Horvat and Baertschi are healthy.

I hope we kick their asses tonight!!

So why aren't there more teams in Canada and or near the Canadian border. Seattle, Quebec could avg 15000 plus per game.

I have wanted a team in Seattle or Portland for many years now.
Although, I would like to see it through relocation and not expansion.
Expansion just further waters down the talent level of the league. Most teams have a hard time fielding a top line, never mind 2 good lines.
Ie: Canucks Flames Flyers Montreal Arizona Carolina
Florida too name a few.
A boatload of 3rd and 4th line players though😃

So, Bill Daly says he is mystified by the "low" attendance in Ottawa. They have around 16500 avg this year and are 22nd in attendance.
No mention of perennial attendance bottom feeders like Arizona Florida New Jersey Carolina or Islanders.
Nor is there any mention that Buffalo has 50% of there fans travel across the border too get bums in those seats.

Would be nice and you're correct. Flames lack a lot of scoring depth as the Nucks do right now. Now having said that the Flames have a bit more potential as of right now but they really aren't showing it.

Always liked that movie.
I fully expect a bottom 10 finish, but will enjoy the games when they play hard and I never ever cheer for a loss.😁

I want to see a team in Seattle so that the Canucks travel schedule will shorten by problem 5000 km a year probably.

I think relocation would be better also. Like you said it's a bit watered down. As you see by Vegas though, some players that were playing lesser roles on other teams given a shot are quite good.

No

That's Gaudette

The only report I could find had Max Pacioretty as Kole Lind comparable.

Unfortunately expansion will happen Again, at $650 million the owners are going to make sure of it.
In regards to Vegas players, they do look decent, but that has dimished the other teams depth chart, hence why so many teams have ahl level players on there rosters.
Heck we have 3 defensemen and about 6 forwards that belong in that league.
