It hasn't started obviously but I just wanted to get a thread about it going right away. Draft picks have been made and most of the players who were free agents have been signed.
We've got an idea of what our favorite team(s) will look like, so anybody happy/disappointed with how these last couple of months went? Azuran, still think the Leafs will suck this year?
Most shocking thing for me this summer was seeing Halak just being delt away...what the fuck, he's the main reason the HABS went so far in the play offs and they just got rid of him like he was nothing....

Halak got traded?
The Fuck. That guy is the reason ( in my opinion) that my Pens got knocked out last season...
Anyway I haven't been paying a whole lot of attention as of yet. But I know we traded Gonchar off.

My guess is they didn't want a Jose Theodore repeat. They were also stuck with 2 rookie goaltenders who could become good but they needed to focus on one or the other.
So, Halak got pretty good in the post-season and the staff figured it would be best to get some forward in exchange. At first I thought they were ludicrous but I guess I'll know for sure whether it was worth it in a few days.
FINALLY, the hockey season will begin shortly :D

The Sharks signed both Nittymaki and Niemi. Two Finish goalies with very similar styles. Haha...
At least they should be fresh come playoff time.
Go Giants!!

I'm ready for the playoffs and for the Sharks to choke again! =<
But.... With Nabokov out, maybe we'll win!

If their first line doesn't disintegrate...Seriously, of all the teams, their first line seemed nonexistent during last years playoffs.

Gionta, Gomez, Pouliot and Kostityn felt invisible in tonight's match. :(
That 3rd goal by the leafs was nice, Spacek looked like he had cement skates on that play, he barely flinched.

Lol, the HABS totally stole that match from the Pens. In the last 2 minutes of the game, 2 quick goals 24 seconds apart, and they won the game. Wow.

Apparently, we lost in OT.
I'm caring too much about Baseball to pay attention to my Sharks right now. XD

biggest surprise this year is how badly the devils have been playing. Not just one or two players, but the whole damn team is.......struggling..
Ducks had a hell of a rough start but things seemed to be going for the better (though they lost to the Stars as I write this)
My HABS are performing WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY better than I expected. Hell, I was predicting they'd be floating around 10th~7th place, instead they are 3rd in the East. And they beat the damn flyers 3-0. Feels good man.

Heatley gets booed in his return to Ottawa. Why..?
Also HABS are still 3rd in the East but I'm concerned about Scott Gomez's mediocre performance. I sense a possible trade soon. Even IF the habs make it to the playoffs they're good line with Plekanec is gonna get shutdown and with Gomez's line being mediocre, it's gonna hurt them a lot.

Yeah! Go Heatley! And our defense fails! We seriously need help. Boyle is pretty good. I love Vlasic and Murray, but other than that... Meh... Huskins is okay... Wish he didn't trade away Ehrhoff and all those other good players. =/ Well, hopefully we can get hot at the right time and are white hot going into the playoffs.
