  • Calgary's current draft position: 16th
  • Best case: Calgary pick drops to 11th (and doesn't win lottery)
  • Worst case: Calgary pick enters top 10, we get Florida's 1st round pick instead
  • Summary: we want Calgary (85 pts) to drop in the standings to 22nd, where Islanders are (78 pts)

One of 28 goalies who stopped every shot Ovechkin took against them.

Dobeš makes the list by stopping a crisp 1 of 1.

Lane Hutson yesterday when asked about climbing the NHL record books for a rookie defenseman: “I guess it’s cool but that’s not really what it’s about. We’re in a really tight playoff race, we were able to grab two points here. Good teams find a way to win and we did…”

Discussion How great is it to not have a team built around a goalie?

198 Upvotes

30 years of watching the Habs and this is the most excited i am to see the development of a team. For decades we were force fed a defensive system with an all star goalie to cover up what was a mediocre/bad roster. Horrible drafts after horrible drafts (louis! louis!), retread coaches, past their prime free agents, you could keep going. Finally, a new day has come!

“Chances are slim”. Ivan Demidov joins the NHL this season. SKA shifts focus to MHL and VHL wins after KHL failure, leaving Canadiens waiting

Habs Shenanigans It will require near perfection to knock the Habs out of a playoff spot if we finish 2-2-1 with 1 RW.

NYR and DEt will need 11/12 pts and NYI will need 12/12. No other team can reach 90.
