I like this. Reminds me of when there was optimism for the now basement dwellers. I really didn't think I would spend another early spring wondering "who's worse? Buffalo or Arizona?", here were are though...

He may very well be really good in the future. He's not there yet. OEL is also criminally overrated, hjalmarsson is good, demers is decent.

This is not a top-5 defense

5 teams easily better
Nashville
Tampa
Calgary (well...on paper)

when they roll out

oel/demers
chychrun/hammer
cannot-on/goligoski

they don't allow much.

schenn is in his correct spot as 7D, instead of 2nd pair where he played much of the year due to injuries.

Your team is very good now. Embrace it. There were many springs we were wondering the same about your team.

Very true. I just expected both teams to make a leap this year. So much talent, I just find it surprising is all.

Geeez, is this an April fools day comment section? Like 30 of 34 comments are complimentary of Tanner


*** conspiracy theory alert ***

Me startin' to thinks that Little Jimmy purposely made crazy preseason predictions with the intention of writing this apology blog 5 months later and therefore saving his tarnished reputation that was in smithereens from his last Coyotes blog.

James is an ageist. He thinks everyone older than 25 is garbage and every player who scored a lot in junior should immediately be 1st line NHLers and they will all score 100 goals in their rookie season.

Of course he's going to predict garbage like Arizona with all their B rated prospects and young players. In his mind they are all Wayne Gretzky.

WOW was this ever fun to read! I'm performing stand up tonight at the local club here in Thunder Bay and rather than doing my planned sat I'm going to have to memorize this blog! All joking aside with the amount of heat this man takes he sure does take in stride and I commend you for doing a self-deprecating blog as that's the type of humour I use in my stand up sets. Kudos to you James Tanner and the expression goes "Even a broken clock is right twice a day." Also I meant to say this a few months back, you sure had a sweet looking backyard rink sir!
