Adin Hill has always been a good goalie. Happy for him as one that followed the Coyotes. Still a bizarre trade when they got rid of him, but I guess they got a 2nd round pick out of it.
I didn't originally pick the Knights to go far because I though the goaltending carousel was going to be too much for them. I was wrong. Their depth is out of this world, and I am a fool for thinking they'd get bounced in the 1st round. The Eichel acquisition makes them the favorites in the west for the rest of that contract.
Not counting out the Panthers yet, but they are going to need other guys to step up if Bobrobsky isn't playing up to standard or Tkachuk cooling down.
I feel like we've seen this movie before. A hot winger and a hot goalie aren't enough to get you a SC title.
