<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>MoSeider53</b></div><div>:laugh Ottawa 100 points and Detroit only 83 points, You're totally delusional dude. LMFAO Ottawa loses DeBrincat and gains Tarasenko and now they're a 100 point team. Got news for you Slick? Buffalo is far better than Ottawa and the D and Goaltending are still an issue in Ottawa.

Even more funny is the dude really believing that Vancouver is going to get 100 points as well. Team is still garbage.</div></div>

Ottawa has better forwards, defense, and goalies than Detroit. Those predictions aren’t that far out there

And the Canucks could push for 100 points if their top players stay healthy and their defensive acquisitions play as well as expected. 100 may be a bit of a reach but not completely unrealistic. They definitely aren’t garbage though

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>JoeThorntonsBeard</b></div><div>I see where your coming from but Couture could be one of the best deadline pickups in a long time, and for not too much either (a very late first an expiring contract and two low B-level prospects) His playoff track record is insane, he's providing almost a point per game with awful linemates on a very bad team this year, he also provides leadership, experience, and I think would fit perfectly on Colorados second line</div></div>

Yeah I feel that. Maybe I’m too gunshy about aging players, but I don’t want anything to do with term for someone that is signed from age 33 to 38. He’ll probably be good (great, even) for the next couple years, but that contract could turn sour.

Same reason why the Avs weren’t willing to give Kadri the big payday. Late 30s players with a lot of mileage on their body rarely can keep up the same level of production (unless you’re Crosby or Pavelski)
