Though, nothing has made much sense in Ottawa lately.
SOUTH SIDE

What dod you think of the Eugene Melnyk video the other night proclaiming a rebuild was on but that this team will surprise many. Is the surprise that if they thought it was bare before just wait 2 days?
Gavin Lee
6:47
Defense exhibit A
That video was one of the more bizarre things I've ever seen a team release.
6:48
The wording on their press release today ranks just behind it.
Bob

Do the Ducks have any shot against the sharks this year?  What would they need to add to not be embarrassed off the ice against them?
Gavin Lee
6:49
Let's not crown the Sharks as West champs just yet.
They made a big acquisition this season but it's not like there aren't question marks on their roster.
The Ducks have a very good foundation and still a really solid defense corps.
6:51
I think they still need some help down the middle if they're going to add, but that can happen later in the year.
Rick

Speaking of team videos, what’d you think of the Seguin video today?
Gavin Lee
6:51
It was neat, the Stars are getting a reputation for things like that.
Remember the Bishop announcement?
SOUTH SIDE
6:52
What do you see as the outcome with nylander and nurse?
Gavin Lee
6:52
I think Nylander probably signs long term, and Nurse signs a bridge deal.
Neither misses a regular season game.
Zac
6:55
So can we give Jack Hughes to the Avs now?
Gavin Lee
6:55
I've said this a bunch, but let's all remember that you have a less than 20% chance at winning the draft lottery even if you come in last.
It's much more likely that Hughes goes somewhere else.
SOUTH SIDE
6:56
Are there any other names to fall prior to the season? Panarin? Bob? Faulk?
Gavin Lee
6:56
I don't think Faulk will be dealt in the immediate future now that they've announced him as an alternate
6:57
Bobrovsky is the tough one, given his awkward answer today.
6:58
If you have The Athletic -- Aaron Portzline breaks down the comments https://theathletic.com/522589/2018/09/13/silence-broken-sergei-bobrov...
Don't think either are dealt before the season, but that's a powderkeg ready to explode.
Rick
6:58
What’s your Eichel goal/point prediction for this season?
Gavin Lee
6:58
Hmm, good one.
6:59
30-45-75
Probably more, to be honest.
Zac
6:59
Do you think Karlsson resigns with the Sharks?
Gavin Lee
7:00
I would not bet against Doug Wilson getting players to re-sign with him.
He very rarely trades for players he doesn't intend on keeping.
But boy, that's a lot of money to hand out.
SOUTH SIDE
7:01
Top 5 goal scorer this year Are?
Gavin Lee
7:01
Laine
Ovechkin
Matthews
McDavid
Kucherov
7:02
(Who knows really)
Cody
7:03
Should the leafs of given Mathews the A
Gavin Lee
7:03
I guess I understand why this is such a big story, because it's Toronto, but I really don't think it matters.
Marleau and Rielly are obvious options given their roles last season
7:04
Tavares is basically the pinnacle of professionalism, something that Babcock will absolutely adore.
SOUTH SIDE
7:05
If you had to pick a sleeper team a la vegas last year who would it be? FLA?
