Looks like mark stone is finally playing a regular season. Lol. Not a hater he’s great I just find it funny
I don’t think it should be much of a question if the knights make the playoffs in the pacific. Edmonton are the obvious favorites but behind them the knights and canucks should be the contenders for number 2. The kings I think will also be taking a step back this year and should be competing for wild card and outside of them I don’t really see anyone else in the west really making that big of a jump outside of maybe Seattle.
No way Stone sits out another year to play 7 playoff games
The loss of Stephenson and Marchessault will prove devastating. I expect they will drop down a few notches, and will have to fight hard for a wild card spot. They could use Marner from Toronto, but who would they have to give up, and what kind of money do they have to give Marner? Leafs might want Theodore and Karlsson, Vegas would have to say no way.
Eichel is definitely worth $10 million. He's a very solid and consistent 200' player. I was glad to see Marchy win the Conn Smythe, but Jack was also deserving.
I was glad to see Samsonov get out of the screwy environment in Toronto and come to Vegas. I am optimistic about a Hill-Samsonov duo in net. I think they will be in the top ten if not higher for goaltender tandems.
They're definitely still a playoff team. They could potentially do some damage in the playoffs, but I don't really consider them a Cup Contender.
Wait a minute, Vegas has someone on LTIR? Shocker. 😂
Their Conn Smyth winner just walked
Eichel is the only reason they signed olofson. Eichels been a fan of him stating he can score 40 with his eyes closed. He just cant do anything well except shoot. As a 7th rounder hes clearly overperformed his draft position even to this point. But he needs to be used as a speciality player
I agree that if the Knights start slow, McCrimmon will get aggressive in wanting to succeed. I think this will be an interesting year for the Knights, and as a fan of theirs since day one, all the losses have hurt (especially Fleury, Smith, and Marchy), but I know they’ll bounce back and do alright. Great vid, Shannon!
Like number Rey Mysterio, 6-1-9.
Yes, also Juneteenth. Not being insensitive. It can be both.
Vegas is going to be middle of the pack next year.
They're in a fairly easy division and probably the best playoff team from it so they're definitely contenders but not the favorites to win with the changes they've made.
Choosing Hertl over Marshessault was mind boggling for a team trying to win…..
Hertl is really good! But heads up M is better especially if Hertl isn’t a Center.
No I wont be surprised if they miss the PO.
Marshy will be missed but you can't pay people for what they've done but what they'll do. Playing Dallas with all that young talent made it apparent Knights need to get younger.
I'm done with vgk, there's nothing left but the D core
Well, D and goaltending usually get you the bucket.
The first line is still a monster. Eichel is a bit like Sid and McD in the sense that he can make mediocre and new guys look great. So the idea of moving Stone down to 2.line makes sense.
Atm its hard to predict them not to make the playoff from pacific. Its up to the rebuilding teams
to raise their game and compete harder.
Cup contender-no. Remove Eichel or Stone
and they look very vulnerable. Top 4 in central
will be extremely tough as usual, even tougher
when Preds also look more stacked. So yeah, west is weaker, but not the teams that get into the playoffs
Praying on their downfall🙏
in my opinion if Stone can stay healthy he could easily be a Selke finalist, Vegas needs that from him this season
If a couple of their guys take a step back, they may be in trouble
This is what happens when you do that shady shit. Look at the Knights, Lighting and Hawks when they did that they lost a lot lot in the following years. Unlike the Avs they are still in the hunt because they built their team legitimately.
I don't see why they won't be able to contend. Their top-end players like Eichel, Stone, and Petro are still there. They also added Hertl and Hanifin last season…
"Contender" is one of those interesting and totally subjective labels.
Are the Canes still a contender with their remake in progress?
Are the NYR really a contender, when FLA outplayed them in all six games and only Igor's GT got them their two wins? Is Igor's playoff GT sustainable?
Is Boston a contender if their new 1C plays like he did during the reg season in VC? If Mini Z can't stay out of the penalty box? If Mini Z can't be the go-to guy in a D pair? If their GT dynamic is significantly changed?
Is NJD a contender with their GT upgrades and Dougie back in the lineup?
Is TBL still a contender without Captain Leader Stamkos? Without their best young all around d-man? Is Vassy still a SC stealing GT? Can TBL really contend in a normal NHL season?
Will FLA run out of juice after two straight years of hard team defense? Plus the possible SC Hangover?
Is TML ever really a contender?
Will the Avs be able to overcome their missing top six forwards? Once again, is the Avs GT good enough?
Will WPG's 2024 playoff failure linger? Will a major trade change things?
Did Dallas peak? Can Oettinger sustain? Will the old guys hit the age wall?
Can VC dupe their reg season sucess without their first half 23-24 luck? Is Demko's injury lingering?
Can EDM get back to SCF if their path doesn't include playoff inexperienced LAK, VC's #3 GT, and good fortune in a series vs DAL they could have easily lost?
VGK, on the other hand, proved they know how to win. Their management has also proven they know how to build a winning team, although in a way unacceptable to Old School NHL.
I'd say VGK are as much a "contender" as anyone.
My dream?
VGK and NJD in SCF 2025.
🥸👍🤷
