As we approach the holidays, things get dicey for the NHL. Injuries (you may know a team with some of those) and position in the standings lead GMs to start thinking about how to supplement their teams while still planning for the future. However, the NHL also has a roster freeze, meaning these trades aren't always easy to make.
On top of that, fans are distracted by shopping, family, food, and gifts. Finish that up with no games or travel December 24 & 25, and there can be a bit of a lull in the league this time of the year.
A look back, and forward, after the jump.
Last Week
The shootout loss to the Isles was... well... forgettable. Moving on.
A week with some good signs, some good looks at players from Houston, and more examples of what this team can do, even when beat down.
The Week Ahead
Otherwise, we'll face a week of being told how much the Wild have regressed, all while the Aeros make up the roster. Whatever works.
Should be a fun week, folks. Anyone have any predcitions?
