I just noticed that Brett Connolly is closing in on 20 goals as a 3RW making $1.5M as an upcoming UFA with the Capitals this year. Any chance the Bs consider looking at him again as a possible solution RW for any of the top three lines on the Bs next year?
One other crazy thing I noticed. Vegas is playing the Flames tonight. The Flames leading assist man has exactly 1/2 as many helpers as the assist leader for Calgary - just about the same situation with overall points leaders. Considering that many feel Vegas has another shot to represent the West, that's just NUTS in my mind.
Last one - did anyone else see that old nemesis PK Subban was voted THE MOST overrated player in a survey of NHL players? Dude took 23% of the vote. Regardless - it was fun as hell when he was terrorizing the Bs during rivalry games against Montreal. Just a really great guy that I used to love to hate, and definitely miss him.
That's it. Later, Skaters!
