Just checked. League average forward size in 2024 is 6’1-198.5. Podkolzin is below average size. 6’1-190

Top 5 scorers don’t cut it.
Next 5 cut it.

I did for like 40 years, and I grew up in hockey also, look at the hit stats Don, Canucks 5th out of 32. It's too bad you don't like the Canucks team and covet players like Lucic and Reaves.

There is a difference between a Joshua hit and a Pouty hit. Surely you realize this. I didn’t want plugs that can’t skate I wanted the two big, fast and physical players Colorado got for cheap. The team needs 3 or 4 forwards with Joshua’s physicality to win anything

Real physical teams!

Anything can happen but if you could only and had to bet 1 team to win the Stanley Cup I'd say that's the best choice.

I’m not surprised you don’t understand what we are discussing. You should figure out how to monetize your stupidity and you would be a very rich man. Hell, you could buy the Canucks and assemble a team of smurfs just like you have always dreamed about

Ya those big physical leaders are a must-have to win, I bow down to your superior knowledge. Hughes is too small to be elite, you were right all along!

At least they have Huberdeau, Kadri & Weegar locked up long term.

The Oil are not a well constructed team. They should have won easily today. As soon as Buffalo tied it you could see the oil wilt with frustration and dejection.

It was hilarious.

15% of their remaining games are against Colorado, could be fun to watch.

Swedish Americans if you go back far enough in their genealogy.

Here I did some research, Miller came Millersson, Hughes from Hughesgren, and Demko from Demkoberg.

Looks like Reubs was right after all...

Oddly, the one team you omitted was the Yotes that you also cheer for!

You're the curse?

He has a point.

How do you reduce a 30 minute Dman to a 25 minute Dman?

Dump the puck in and play the body. There are guys that have made a career out of evading hits, such as the guy who probably still holds more than half the scoring records.

However, for most guys it ends up taking a toll over a long series.

$250K for Kraft hockeyville doesn't seem like nearly enough. The NHLPA should match.
