So, 4-1 victory in Ottawa, following a 2-1 OT victory in Toronto. In both games they looked decent and played with the intensity needed to win. Next 4 games are Arizona, Ottawa, Colorado & Montreal. All at home and likely to have Schwartz back by the end of the homestand. No reason they can't grab 6 of the 8 points available. And some of you knuckleheads think they won't even make the playoffs? It would take a catastrophic meltdown or some devastating injuries for that not to happen.
Don't hold your breath for any trades bringing a marquee player here. First, there is no cap room and no GM is going to take equal salary for less talent. We just have to hope they can get back to the same game they were playing in the first 1/3 of the season. When Schwartz gets back, that is a very real possibility.
Saturday night will be their breakout night. Write it down!! I predict 5 or more goals...
Go Blues or Predators or whoever gets your money these days...
