Gotta say I think chatty is due. Who ever we play he’s gonna bring it. 

He may not be an offensive threat like Burns or Skjei, he has had an outstanding defensive post-season. In the 11 games played so far, you'd be hard-pressed to see 5-6 mistakes those entire games. And he's not missing any ice time. He's flat even for the NJ series, but a +23 for the regular season.

Leaps and bounds of progress from last year. Oh, yeah, his 27th birthday is next Tuesday.

Sure am going to miss “Jack Hughes is skating, Jack Hughes likes ice cream, Jack Hughes is on the ice, Jack Hughes….”  You get the idea. 

Unfortunately, the next series, regardless of who it is- Florida or Toronto- will be more of the same. Auston Mathews, Barkov or Tkachuk, take your pick. ESPN, TNT or TBS will be slobbering all over these guys as well.

Priority numbero uno in the off-season, re-sign this man asap.

He's signed thru next year, but extending him now to get him at a reduced price and save some cap room for the 24-25 season when a bunch of forwards will be UFAs would be nice. But there is a lot of cap room to be created without having to make tough decisions.

I think unless they have someone in Chicago ready to start on the blue line next season, signing Ghost becomes a necessity as well. I'm not thrilled with Max LaJoie, Coghlan is an RFA and DeHaan is a UFA and neither of them will be resigned.

Burns-Slavin; Skjei-Pesce; Chatty-Ghost. Bring up a couple guys and sign a UFA.

Man the sportsnet winning minutes is way way better than the ESPN version. 

I watch the Canadian feeds of the games instead of anything ESPN/TNT/American based.  Much better commentary and balanced.

I don't know if that applies if it's a Canadian team playing against a US team, but so much better than those imbeciles at ESPN/TNT etc.

    • I mean, yes, there is a difference between looking at a box score and watching film.  But PFF has a big subjective aspect to some of their grades.  That's how you get a 2/4 being better than 3/5 with a TD.  You aren't using stats at that point or factual events, but subjective analysis of plays.   And it's not like it is the same subjective analysis applying across all the players.   Same guy grading BY's incompletions (which are putting him over the top) isn't grading everyone else's incompletions and completions.  So it's different subjective takes/viewpoints applied.  There is no way everyone at PFF views grading out a play the same.  Then it all dumps into the same spreadsheet.  Hit the sort button.  Sometimes I feel it gets really weird and and collective data starts saying some weird stuff that just isn't true.   
    • Yeah, Sanders had a very nice debut preseason performance but the folks acting like he's arrived based on that performance are getting way out ahead of themselves.
    • I won't be surprised if Graham disappoints. Maybe not outright bust but never lives up to his draft status. The more I watched him at Michigan the more I came away impressed by the other Michigan DT. I think he might be the real player. Usually when you have two high level prospects in the same college unit one of them ends up getting fraud checked in the NFL as being largely carried by the other guy. Peppers and Ryan Sims at UNC comes to mind. Lavar Arrington and Courtney Brown at Penn State, etc.
