Glad he finally gets a chance, hopefully his fresh legs should be a welcome addition to the D group. Edler's shoes are going to be a big fill for the D group. I was counting preseason... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did a quick study on the Calder history & it's effects about a year ago.. I was kind of scoffed at for spitballing that 3 Calder finalists in a few years would lead to a modern 'dynasty'.. although that term needs to be used carefully. I mean, I'm not suggesting MON, NYI or EDM.. in today's league of parity, CHI, PIT, LA, & maybe BOS are as close as you get to a dynasty.. either way, it's gonna be a good ride.. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No one will be winning 3+ Cups in a row anymore, but I'd agree that the modern version of the Dynasty is much like those teams showed, especially Chicago. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I prefer to think of it like the other 5 NHL D each move up a spot so Fanten only has to fill in for a 3rd pairing D. Less pressure on him that way lol.

No idea, I guess we will find out soon enough, but I imagine it's going to be a collective effort. Benn and Fantenberg will take on the defensive/PK duties, but it'll be a test for Hughes to see how he handles some more intense defensive pressure. This will go towards seeing if he can develop to utilize his skating in a defensive role and not just for offense if they choose to up his 5v5 minutes, but I prefer they don't burn him out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alright, results are in: Prior to the 1967 expansion teams had three Calder finalists in the space of three years (two in one year is allowed for this) a total of 9 times, with both Montreal and Toronto doing it three times each. Since the 1967 expansion, here are the occurrences of a team having three Calder finalists in three years : That's cool, but looks like we might be the first team with a Calder finalist in 3 consecutive years! All those other teams had 2 in the same year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last game TG paired Edler and Tanev together to match up against the McDavid line specifically. I'm thinking he wants a shut down pair to play against them. Hughes doesn't really fit that mold. Maybe Tanev and Myers will be the top pairing tonight? I guess we'll find out in 20 more minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Montreal won 2 cups within 10 years Pittsburgh won 3 cups in 12 years Chicago won 3 cups within 10 years all 3 teams won a cup within 2 years from their 3rd finalist. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
