📣I believe Lou is unconcerned about the salary cap or draft selections because he is 79 years old and wants to win one more championship, no matter what it takes. - Michael
📣Noah Dobson is becoming a formidable attacking force, and he's doing so without being teamed with Zdeno Chara. There isn't much to take away from this year. He's come a long way. - Doug
