But they apparently retained many of their players if they are ranked #1?
Sorry I don't really follow hockey, and the funny thing is if I had to pick a team it would be the Predators, as I have lived in Nashville for 10 years now and been to more Preds games than any other hockey team in my life. But with the Giants sucking last year and this year, I'm trying to find some sort of hope to grasp onto sports-wise.
RE: I thought they said the Preds were built to win a Cup last year? Â

How do you think I feel? I’ve watched two teams obsessively for 50+ years... the Rangers and the Giants. I retired the summer of 2017, and was soooo psyched to be able to enjoy the Giants and Rangers without work to worry about. And so what do I get?
So far I like what I see from Brind'Amour's team. They are fast and very aggressive.
I watched the game Tuesday against Vancouver. They forecheck hard. The Canucks always had people in their faces when trying to break out of their zone. That's the kind of game I would like to see the Rangers play.

And haven't drafted well enough to get an Aho or Foegele.
Plus 'canes have Necas, one of my favorite young players.
Hurricanes have a good collection of youth.
Need better goaltending though.
Yeah, and they're not easy to find. What ever happened to Nedeljkovic or whatever his name was. the American goalie with the Russian name. He was a top goalie prospect a couple years ago.
He was the US goalie for the gold medal winning juniors team in Finland a couple years ago.
He is with the Checkers, the AHL team for the Canes in Charlotte Â
Oh, it's bad. Fourteen allowed goals in just three games.
Three goals are empty netters. Without them they gave up 2 and 2 and then 7. So, the bad third game makes the whole thing look worse than it was.
The Rangers might come in last in the Metro, but they they haven't played all that bad.
Maybe I'm just a homer/optimist/whatever you want to call me, but I also do not feel they have played too poorly. Offense exploded for 5 goals last game, just too bad they gave up 8! I thought they held their own and got better as the game progressed opening night against Nashville, and similar in Buffalo. The analysis is stupid, but they should be near the bottom of the league, as they have 0 points in 3 games. I still feel like there is enough talent on this team to be on the bubble for the 8 seed when March comes around.
Holy crap... short handed goal by Sorensen was one of Â

How good is Hughes? Generational?
May the blue-shirts lose early and often.
Canadiens GM sees Nail Yaukpov.
I trust my own instincts more than Marc Bergevin's on this one.
...Yanks getting blown out by the Sawx.
Wow, the Big A ain't a whole lotta fun for sports fans these days.

Hughes is the real deal. Getting him would put this rebuild in overdrive.
