Just my preference. I get that. But I think its make or break for the much of the league, they need the tv $. I'm pretty stoked about it, and I'm also glad that the year Loui's deal finally hurts us is this wonky year. Bit of a silver lining there imo. Plus we get to see some kids try to make the team. Lots to like. 2 2 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just my preference. I also like the players and fans to be healthy. I just think it's better to write this season off and go in September/October. But I am torn because I want to see hockey too. Just not at the expense of anyone's long term health. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-AJ- Posted December 8, 2020 Share Posted December 8, 2020 56 games. I'm honestly glad it's more than 48, even if just 8 more games. Exciting! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure why I have to spell everything out here. Not everyone who plays fantasy is a degenerate. Maybe look into google once in a while. Things sometimes have alternate meanings. If someone calls you a degenerate gambler then they are not complimenting you. If you are a degenerate gambler then you need to step away from the betting window. A degenerate is someone who bets for the rush of the action above all else, and who isn’t capable of making good, mathematically sound bets that have a long-term expectation of profit. In simpler terms, they are compulsive gamblers who are destined to go broke. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty sure a year of his contract, and everyone else's, would have been burned anyway. At least according to Burkie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm really excited about Rathbone getting his 1st camp. He's a long shot but it will be great to see where he's at. Also Juolevi finally gets his first real chance too. So that alone makes it fun for me on top of the rest of it. I think the Demko-Holtby duo in a 56 game season could be phenomenal if Holtby regains his form.

Probably due to your choice of wording in initial post, stating those watching NFL are fantasy degenerates. Chances are it won't matter to you anyway if you're not watching. A shame, as you could miss out on a deep run by the Canucks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RWMc1 Posted December 8, 2020 Share Posted December 8, 2020 I hope they can pull this off. Many doubted that the Playoffs could happen, but they did, so I'm really looking forward to hockey. I wonder how long camp will be this season? I'm already impatient for more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is anyone actually watching the NFL if you aren't a fantasy degenerate? Either way I'm not going to beat a dead horse here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canuktravella Posted December 8, 2020 Share Posted December 8, 2020 tons of hockey experts think we won't make playoffs online they are the same people that said wild and blues would beat us nick schmidt is a massive upgrade on tanev who's slow old gets crushed in the corners doesn't hit of provide offence juolevi has massive upside great mobility and outlet passes plus size he's a upgrade on Stecher who was to small. we get to see Rathbone Lind Hoglander Rafferty push for spots Macewen Gaudette Virtanen Petey Hughes Boeser motte hopefully keep improving and this hawyrluk kid will help the bottom 6 be excited guys hopefully Benning pulls another trade in next week Sutter Eriksson Roussel need to be sent out to pasture asap time for kids to learn to pk 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dear Santa, I've been a good boy all year. Please have Loui Eriksson want to finish his career in Sweden starting Dec 25/2020. If you can get me the winning numbers on the 6/49, bonus.

Pretty stoked to have hockey coming back around the same time football is finishing up. Given most of my other hobbies have been taken away by Covid, I'm grateful to still be able to watch my favourite sports in any capacity. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil_314 Posted December 9, 2020 Share Posted December 9, 2020 Not sure if there's a separate thread of this but hearing there's also an extended squad? Wonder how that would work cap-wise. Would sending Loui/ Sven there essentially be the same as sending them to the minors? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
