Obviously not a good time for fans of our team. What Colorado-Edmonton did is what the new NHL is to survive 82 games, speed/skill. You can make a strong case of that non-contending teams for years New York has the least players who fit that style of game with many signed long-term, and others too old/slow/on downside of their careers. This is where they are with a gm approaching eighty years old. The NHL's best coach is gone, his long-time assistant is the new voice. What works is they have Sorokin, Barzal, Pelech, Pulock, Dobson, with some solid talent in Nelson, Lee, Mayfield.
