Don't have anything concrete on this but the last I heard the plan is still to unveil it in the offseason between the two seasons. My guess is the first time they wear it on the ice is the next time there are fans in T-Mobile Arena. https://t.co/rC3kQdZsIz

Both Anaheim and LA are pretty stacked. VGK's is definitely not on par with those two, but they are not the worst either. (That's probably San Jose.) https://t.co/m54zeYDPtK

— SinBin.vegas (@SinBinVegas) June 21, 2020

I do not. Increased testing was going to lead to an increase in positive tests. The league had to be aware that they were going to receive some positive tests.

The key will be in containing the spread within the facilities now that the positives exist. https://t.co/dB7cbsnJkv

— SinBin.vegas (@SinBinVegas) June 21, 2020

The price of the contract is in-line with the player. So the answer is yes. However, I believe VGK had the ability to use some leverage against him to get him to take a cheaper deal and they opted not to do that. Missed opportunity to save a few bucks IMO. https://t.co/6IeiUPA1sd

I'll go with yes but it'll be on the back end of the 5 years. https://t.co/o9XWGmlR6Y

— SinBin.vegas (@SinBinVegas) May 18, 2020

I do not.

The only way I can see it making sense to keep both guys is if the 82 game schedule is majorly tightened.

Otherwise, they'd have to move Fleury and I don't see that happening. https://t.co/9EVTCsb9OP

Late July would be my best guess. Wouldn't shock me if it extends into August. (As of today though, I do believe it will happen.) https://t.co/uGZvq6lyZV

16 teams.
Normal playoff format.
4 preseason games against teams you are not scheduled to play in the 1st round.

(Not sure if it's been proposed, but that's what I'd do if I were in charge.) https://t.co/JaYAt17wAg

— SinBin.vegas (@SinBinVegas) May 18, 2020

The future looks fairly similar to the present. The core is here and will be for a while.

Mark Stone will eventually be named captain. I'd say it happens in the offseason between 2019-20 and 20-21. https://t.co/6brHcJCA2q

They need to eventually get some production from ELCs. To this point, they have cashed in all of the extra Expansion Draft assets. Moving forward, any traded picks have to pay off big time, otherwise the future will suffer. https://t.co/QgFvgszTpA

At the moment, I'd still go with Fleury to start the playoffs.

I expect the rotation to continue throughout the rest of the regular season and I do believe the next 11 games will play a role in who starts Game 1. https://t.co/IW864r6vw0

I'm still on board for trying to get a high-end puck moving D-man. Of course, that may not be available, so any solid D-man would work (puck-mover or D-first). I'd love to stay with just Eakin and then the collection of crap they got this offseason (2 2nds, 3rd, Cond 5th, Roy). https://t.co/v71dqNWZX8

I recently checked in on this and the response to whether or not it would be coming this season was lukewarm, which it hasn't been before.

Honestly, it wouldn't shock me if they go something like 55/27 assuming both guys are healthy. https://t.co/WRNkSzxERz

— SinBin.vegas (@SinBinVegas) August 16, 2019

I think it's a little much, just because I believe it's necessarily the main goal for VGK this season. Betting odds are always going to be skewed towards VGK though due to the money that comes in on them. https://t.co/cPRZzYn2jh

Fair question and I don't really have an answer. RFA's without arbitration rights always have the potential to take a while because of the lack of leverage the player holds. I'd be surprised if he misses camp though because he needs to be there to win a job. https://t.co/hPkKhUb1Fv

— SinBin.vegas (@SinBinVegas) August 16, 2019

I don't buy that for a second. No one would probably give fair value for them (meaning McPhee would have probably gotten fleeced in the deals) but if they really wanted them out of here, they wouldn't be here. https://t.co/a73wWpy8Fi

Jimmy Schuldt. He's the most seasoned of them and I think he's got the most upside aside from possibly Hague. Schuldt can likely step right in and not hurt the team at all. https://t.co/oqyh08sekw

To go back to Russia. VGK would then forfeit his rights in a year and he could come back as a UFA. He holds about as much power as you can as an RFA. It's not an ideal situation for VGK, but they put themselves here. https://t.co/J61oshb3oQ

If they trade Gusev and sign another scorer, my head might explode. Why give up Gusev and Haula and then use that money to bring in someone else? The whole trading Gusev and Haula thing doesn't add up to me which is why I still don't think it's happening. https://t.co/iIKHBFydbn

I'll have to watch them a lot more if we get there, but from my memory of when they've played VGK it's been puck possession. They cycle in the VGK zone for extended periods (not always doing anything dangerous) but it slows Vegas down. Get the puck and keep it. https://t.co/hcIQnN0GWx

— SinBin.vegas (@SinBinVegas) October 10, 2018

I wouldn't. I expect a bounce back effort for VGK. Vegas should be dogs but I think the game is going to be close to a toss up. I'm guessing 3-3 heading into OT, game-winner by Karlsson in OT. https://t.co/xlOwRcaByU

— SinBin.vegas (@SinBinVegas) October 10, 2018

Not really. The 91.9 PDO is insane. That'll turn around relatively soon, if not as soon as tomorrow. If they can get 3 points in the next 3 games they are in great shape, 4 or more would be amazing. If they don't get another 2 points on this trip, then I'll be a bit worried. https://t.co/IKthDlWZtO

It actually ended up being 11th in the league last year, which isn't that bad. I think missing Tuch and Schmidt has hurt PP more than it has anything else. They'll get it going on PP. Don't think they'll be Top 10, but it won't be 0 for. Plus PK has been excellent. https://t.co/wxkVy3RKDk
