Calling it "Chel" makes me not want to buy it, who the hell ever called it that
I wish it was more like MLB The Show and less like an EA game =/

Cool! I get to pick Gordie Howe on Nikolai Khabibulin.
Tom Barrasso also shares my birthday and so does Pavel Bure.
But I also have Michael Ryder and David Clarkson. LOL
I was about to say - James whathisnamedowski is already my least favourite part of the new game.
Stick check finally what it was supposed to be after last year's disaster.
New shooting animations are... neat?
New replays are... ok

Could be a huge win for the Devils, remains to be seen how he plays in the NHL.
Half the teams in the league have one or several overpaid Defensemen that they would like to get rid of.
- cut them down a bit by teams pressed against the cap
- cut it down further by teams who would sign another LHD to a big contract
Who besides Montreal?
(genuinely asking)
Hell, even toronto falls under that criteria
Frigging ceci just go away already
There was rumours that shattenkirk would be bought out but hasn't yet come to fruition... so we expect if anything happens on that front it would happen tomorrow
Buffalo is probably the biggest target if I were to guess because they've been trying to move Risto and they also have Bogosian and Scandella just wasting cap space but they're on last year deals so easier to move
I'd look at Detroit being a team that might take on a bad contract for a price as they have a stupid amount of cap space to work with... $5 mil in cap and $10 mil LTIR

THE GOOSE IS LOOSE IN JERSEY!
Man. Considering how the team did jack shit last offseason it's weird to actually see a productive offseason where the team is getting objectively better. At least now, should Hall not resign I can't look at this and say that Shero didn't at least try and make the situation here look somewhat competitive for a cup.
Of course this latest move is based mostly on speculation of how his skill set will transfer over to the NHL. But at least from what I've seen he hopefully should be able to contribute in some way without being a total liability.
That's a whole other can of worms.
To be fair to Schneider, the defense hasn't never been particularly good in front of him.
But it's no secret that Schneider's been more hype than substance. Doesn't help either that he's had a tough time staying on the ice as of late. Would have loved to see Shero make a bigger play for a competent net minder but in light of that there's been plenty of other moves this offseason that are worth consideration from Hall's camp that the organization is at least serious about wanting to be competitive now and in the near future.
Unfortunately Cory is locked in for another three seasons with a no-trade clause. So it's not like he's going to be moved any time soon, and his $6 million cap hit per season isn't something you'd want relegated to a backup goaltender. I think really they gotta role with Schneider for this season and then reevaluate what they want to do in the final two years of his deal. There's going to be some decent names out there in the free agent market in 2020-2021, so if they wanted to try and make something work then they'd be in a slightly better situation than they are now.
I think Blackwood is the bigger and more important question. Can he be a starter on a competitive team?
If he can, then maybe buy out Schneider next summer. If he can't.... then maybe buy out Schneider next summer.
Money Melnyk!
See Dopey's, Calder's, and Marvie's posts.
Lowering the cost so he can sell the club at a higher profit. Good job! (or at a lower loss) haha
My sister had a potential internship with the Sens, I think she made the right decision in turning it down.
