I am?
Seems a little high on the Ducks - they are a couple of seasons away from being a bottom dweller. They should be included with the Sharks.
He has irrational hatred for random teams. And a little too much love for others.I wonder why he has the Kraken that low - Does he think last season was a mirage?
in that same vein, I think he has Canucks as insiders because he doesnt want to feel the wraith of the Canucks twitter yet again lol ... ie what Dom faced when he called Quinn Hughes a "tier 3 player" recentlyHe has irrational hatred for random teams. And a little too much love for others.
The Blue Jackets are one he just flat out hates. He can never say anything positive. Granted, I don't think they get into the playoffs myself. But they should be better than lottery again unless the injury train runs roughshod on us again. Kraken should be higher and we should be where they are.
And if we stabilize goaltending then we can challenge for wild card in a classic "if we were not in the murderer's row division" kind of way.
Mark Jankowski is on waivers today - The Flames should totally....ignore this![]()
and certainly not Dominik HasekThat's not Martin Brodeur...
Definitely not Vladislav Tretiakand certainly not Dominik Hasek
Not even the greatest goalie to wear that uniform.
A much better take then the hot mess that comes from ESPN
I think BOS is a bit high here, but otherwise a reasonable tiering.
That's not Martin Brodeur...
I was a big fan of Jeff Hackett too.
This is a great shot. Habs mask, Bruins uniform, Flyers card.

Man, there's a couple of options there as well![]()
Durnan, Plante, Dryden, then some guy named Vezina........
Seems about right. I'm a bit higher on the Caps this year than most, and lower on the Canucks than they are here but not by much.Courtesy of Dom at The Athletic...

Two fun Jeff Hackett stories. He was the goalie for the Habs in DC at a game I went to. At one point he could not open his water bottle and was having a fit. Finally someone went over to help him so he could get a drink. There were maybe 10 seconds left in the game/period.Buddy Hackett >Jeff Hackett

Another one is more of a sportscaster story. When Hackett was with the Habs they were awful but got on a hot streak and got close at the end to a playoff spot. (I think they lost out on the last day when they lost to the Senators) They needed to pick up some wins on the season ending road trip to qualify and they had a game in Detroit that ESPN showed. Melrose said Jeff Hackett was the key. All throughout the game Melrose said Hackett was keeping them in the game. They finally lost in OT but got the point so Melrose credited Jeff Hackett for having them steal a point. They lost 6-5, when teams really didn't score like that.He had to keep selling his point of view.
