do you expect Ottawa to look for a trade before the new year? I'm not really sure what it would be but 1-0-0-5 is a bit tough to come back from

fyi 37k is the minimum salary, the average is a bit over 55 and the players get a housing stipend. very not ideal but it's not *quite* as bad

the preseason's always wild 😜 also according to someone at the game they switched goalies in the 3rd. I wouldn't expect Boissonault to get regular starts

Why was there so much more movement in free agency this past offseason compared to year 1? And do you expect that to happen again next summer?

Schroeder is part of the starting lineup, and is on the same team as Carpenter.

Even more confused about them not signing Kjellbin given the lack of RDs??

Vegas isn't relevant, different league, different draft. all I said is that your math is bad

I'm not disagreeing that the mechanics are overly advantageous to the expansion teams. I hope the league adjusts next time they do this, but I find this argument you're making is just ragebait

So this graphic showing that the best players are concentrated in the expansion teams is inaccurate. Say 15 of the top players are in MIN, they could only protect 4 and lose 4, and then have 7 more free agents who will probably go to the team that will pay them the best and give them ice time

Your logic that 1. Each team lost 4 players 2. Each team protected 4 players => The expansion teams got 24/48 best players (using your definition which includes cost effectiveness) doesn't follow, because it assumes the talent/cost effectiveness is evenly distributed

I do think the teams should have been able to protect at least one more initially, and it sucks that we lost so many draft picks. It does reinforce the idea that the league is more "win now" than "win later"

100%, a bunch of Ottawa's best players are free agents too so weren't available. SEA/VAN probably would have taken more from MIN/TOR if they could have. this idea that all teams had similar losses is just completely wrong

I think Miller's probably going to stay in Toronto, they really need her as their 1C since they lost Nurse and could negotiate very competitively. Obviously I could be wrong, we'll find out tomorrow :)

This graphic is so misleading. They might have gotten 24 "top" players under contract (note Rosenthal #67 in pts/gp among forwards this season is in that list) but that doesn't include free agents like Miller, Vanisova, etc. SEA/VAN still signed many expensive players and won't have much cap space

They have 67 GF this season, so isn't it more like 2.39 GF/GP?

I read somewhere that Ljungblom used to play C? Kinda weird to me that they haven't tried that at all. Otherwise maybe they can re-shuffle when Labelle is back

I know O'Neill's great at faceoffs but she had way more success on the wing last season. Is it really worth having her play center when her line is basically guaranteed not to get points, no matter who the wingers are?
