Toronto @ Philadelphia
5pm MT, TSN

Quote:
The Flyers open their season on home ice, which means Philadelphia debuts for the likes of defenseman Mark Streit and center Vincent Lecavalier. Toronto, meanwhile, plays its second game in as many nights after a win in Montreal on Tuesday.
Buffalo @ Detroit
6pm MT, TSN2

Quote:
The Red Wings begin play in the Eastern Conference with two additions -- Stephen Weiss and Daniel Alfredsson. The move to the East was music to the ears of players and coaches since the team will be playing the majority of its road games against teams in the same time zone. Detroit will play 14 games outside of the Eastern time zone this season, 15 fewer than in 2011-12, the lasy 82-game season.
Anaheim @ Colorado
7:30pm MT, RDS2

Quote:
Colorado's Nathan MacKinnon, the first pick of the 2013 NHL Draft, will make his NHL debut against an Anaheim team that finished second in the Western Conference last season.

Even in the fighting thread I dont think people have an issue wuth fights like that one.

Issue will be when Orr and Asham have their staged fight once a team takes a lead and Orr will already have his 3rd fight of the year.

Maybe the real solution is harsh penalties for repeat fighters.

Detroit is going to have a hayday in the East this year. That division is soft and very winnable for the Wings

If Myers keeps regressing, when does Buffalo get desperate enough and try to dump him?

I don't think they could even get a 1st round pick for Myers now. He's just no good anymore.

Yeah not with his contract. Three seasons of struggles now and no sign of improvement. They might be lucky to get any value if his play continues this way.

That may be a contact the Flames can take a chance on later this year if the Sabres decide to blow it up and move Myers, Vanek, and Miller.
