F Sammy Blais [IR] — Undisclosed

[Gravesy]

This one's the series I look most forward to watching.
The Jets are better on paper, but in reality? I'd be tempted to go for the Blues if I was betting man.

[Dunny]

Blues have the hot goaltender. I've watched Binnington single handedly carry teams before, I wouldn't bet against him.

Jets don't seem to be sum of their parts.

[BlairBettsBlocksEverything]

St. Louis is my pick to come out of the west. Slow start but they got a hot goalie and are going to be a force in the West.

I have a parlay of St. Louis and Tampa both winning the conference

[fletch]

Binnington so hot right now, shut the Jets down in game 1

[Gravesy]

Binnington steals game 1.
The Blues couldn’t have asked for a better start.

[Pete]

Winnipeg is so overrated.

[Dunny]

I'm not a believer in Paul Maurice. It's hard to believe he's still there, only in my estimation due to timing. He was a dead man walking and then the inertia of that roster kept him in place.

[Dunny]

I've always been a Binnington guy. As I mentioned I've already watched him frog march a shitty Owen Sound team to the Memorial Cup (with Scott Stajcer ironically).

It can take time for these goalies, but safe to say he's arrived.

[Phil in Absentia]

What a weird goal.

I didn't make this up, I read this somewhere recently...

How can a generation who was raised by South Park and Family Guy be so sensitive?

[Pete]

https://globalnews.ca/news/5155697/a...mpression=true

This falls under "I'm sorry you're offended, but I don't need to stop doing it because your feelings got hurt. You need to ignore it."

[Gravesy]

Jets massively in the shit here. The team looks disjointed and Hellebuyck isn’t on his game.
Hayes a total non factor as well.

[Pete]

Hayes has been shit since the trade

[Gravesy]

Just north of 8 minutes last night. He’s having a mare.

[Dunny]

So we're looking at one hour of Kevin Hayes in this series, for Brendan Lemieux and a 1st.

[Gravesy]

Seems like a reasonable deal from a Rangers perspective.

[RodrigueGabriel]

Good thing there isn't a condition that he re-signs on this one.
