Great Analogy, Filk, comparing Igor Shesterkin & Henrik (The King) Lundqvist Contracts. I agree that you can't pay some Goalie, who is in his waining years/Lundqvist's Contract at the end years & a Goalie who is Extremely Good, but, hasn't gotten The Rangers to The Promised Land/Stanley Cup, as of yet, with only 1 Vezina under his belt & on his way to 30 sooner than later.

[@mariovaccarella6854]

Right, Filk. Our only Stanley Cup in our lifetime so far, was A Very Good Goalie who had A Great Year/Mike Richter, but, wasn't The Late Great Chicago Black Hawks Goalie Tony O Esposito (who won his Cup Ring with Montreal, as a sub goalie & not with Chicago - likely because Chicago relied on Tony O). Let me know what you think

Great Show. Marc & Maria, all the best for your upcoming wedding.

Anthony, I think that they're all wrong about Puckdocu, if I'm understanding the way you've explained The Pyramid many times to Marc. It's progressing as you go up & Not that the lower levels have to conform with the top levels. I don't play it, but, I think that I got the rule right & they're playing it wrong. Let me know what you think

[@mariovaccarella6854]

I'm with you, Filk, about being On The Fence regarding The Coach, Patrick Roy. I'm not so sure that he's for The Islanders to get them there. I guess, if he were willing to shave his facial hair (Moustache), I would say that Joel Quennville would be the right coach, especially the fact that Stan Bowman was allowed back. Let me know what you think

I wish that I had been on The Live Chat, so I could've gotten your opinion/my opinion that The Trouba/Pionk Trade was A Trade That Never Should Have Happened, since both players were better on their former teams & The Trade messed up Both Of Them. I wish that all 3 of you would answer this one & let me know who's making the comment, if you guys have the time. Thanks, Marc, for you usually getting back to me, in my comments, even though if not in The Live Chat.

If memory serves me right, I'd heard that Kappo Kakko was A Playmaker, more than A Scorer, when he was drafted. If he can get his Act Together, he'd be The Ultimate Replacement for Pavel Buchnievich. Let me know what you think.

[@mariovaccarella6854]

PS. I usually know who's the one that is answering, via my best guess by the tone of the answer & the question that is answered, but, it'd be great to know for sure who's answering

[@mariovaccarella6854]

I can't remember if he played for The Philadelphia Flyers, but Bernie Nicholls would fit The Top Spot, if he did.

[@mariovaccarella6854]

Great Video, as usual, guys. I think that The Islanders are A Good Team, but, having said it, they still haven't gotten young as they need to be & don't be dismissive of The Washington Capitals, who have made a few Major Changes - the only of things that has to be factored in, is will The Capitals be able to Leaf Frog The Islanders. It's likely going to be Columbus & Philadelphia in the 2 last for The Metropolitan Division, so, it's A Coin Flip for #6 (likely to The Pittsburgh Penguins, but, we'll see if they can beat out The Islanders & Carolina). Let me know what you think

[@mariovaccarella6854]

Jonathan Huberdeau is such a sad thing. I still remember The Florida Panthers Announcer's Hubie Dubie Do Calls. I think that he's been OK in Calgary, but came to The Wrong Team At The Wrong Time & it really screwed up his game. While Darryl Sutter is A Good Coach, he's not the easiest guy to play for

[@mariovaccarella6854]

I think that Igor Shesterkin is a $9M/yr Goalie, at Max. Let me know what you think
