You think they'll go back to a non-playoff team or just not as successful next year as they are this year, but still be pretty good? Because that's really hard to determine not knowing how they'll construct their roster next season. - Pacificgem
I look at how many players are having career years, plus how many are free-agents, fighting for very little cap dollars available and lastly, a pretty thin and soft prospect pool.
I believe they will be a bubble team, over the next several seasons.
The titts are reserved for the winner of the “play fight.” Good to see they are buddies and having fun but it is kind of hilarious how soft Gen Z’s are

Yeah, that's why you have to go for it this year. If Lindholm isn't working out, well......
Why is that funny? He is just an old fat guy that drinks at cactus. I find it odd how professional athletes and wealthy people are placed on a pedestal. I know plenty of billionaires and for the most part they are the same as regular people but have a private jet

I believe it is a one and done type roster, so enjoy the games while you can - Reubenkincade
It's a roster that can 1 and done or magically go all the way with elite goaltending and timely goal scoring.
Aside from Crosby I don't see an addition that can magically elevate this team to among the favourites. Therefore, hold onto all key assets and get more and better chances to win it all.

My wife loves telling me about her tits. The word isn't dead, and hers are magnificent.
You think the Nucks are competing for a cup this season?
lol - LordHumungous
Yes. The way the turnaround has gone they have to be. Doesn’t mean all in at any cost has to happen. The core will take the team as far as it can go not new additions. Adding imo isn’t totally necessary only if makes sense.

I've met Jimmy P. a few times. The first time he actually sought me out.
You're right, in some senses they're just another guy. However they want to succeed at all costs. Failure really isn't an option.

Could very well be, but realistically, only Quinn Hughes & Brock Boeser are having what could be considered a career year. Miller is doing what he’s done the past couple years, EP40 is doing what he did last year, Hronek is experiencing a bump in offensive numbers but that can be attributed to personal growth/playing with Hughes/playing on a much better team.
Boeser’s growth this year imo has a lot to do with putting his family issues behind him and recommitting to the game, even then, he’s only 7 or 8 points above his three best seasons points wise.
If Demko can remain healthy and they can keep a bigger/heavier defense together they should be fine. We shall see…
