Who Are You Most Excited to See Play in a New Uniform/City Next Season?

[Phil]

Tavares is almost certainly going to be the runaway winner here, but I'm curious what everyone else thinks.

 

I'm curious to see what Stastny looks like with Vegas, too.

[josh]

I think there were a lot of intriguing moves, guys fitting in well with their new teams. Neal, Tavares, O’Reilly/Bozak, Dahlin, and most importantly Ilya Kovalchuk!

[ThirtyONE]

Tavares. Period. The Leafs are stacked offensively.

 

That said, they still may be 3rd in their division considering their D and goaltending (in my opinion) is weak.

[Phil]

Oh, I totally forgot about Kovalchuk. I'm really interested to see him play again.

[Gravesy]

Yeah, Kovy with the Kings is really interesting. I thought they were a couple of goal scorers away from being a really good team last season. To be fair they could easily have swung that Vegas series with just a couple of guys able to put the puck in the net.

[phillyb]

Kovy and Tavares, but really mostly Tavares.

[Vodka Drunkenski]

Karlsson

[Pete]

Brendan Smith.

[paddynyc]

Tavares for sure and is he considered the number 1 center over Matthews? Of course, wherever Karlsson he winds up.

[Future]

Fuck John Tavares and fuck the Leaves.

 

ROR just because I'm curious and probably Dahlin, just because of how many Sabres games I watch.

[Gravesy]

Brendan Smith.

 

Word.

Kings are old and slow. I don't get the move for them, personally.

I think it makes sense. They're old and slow and took a risk on a high-upside player - think of it as a deadline acquisition.

 

In a couple years, they're going to be full rebuild anyways.

Deadline acquisition on a 3 year over 35 contract....
