Shooting First time shooting the T1X

This thing is a joy to shoot. Crazy accurate even after a half assed job of zeroing in the scope. Can't wait to shoot it again. Random hockey cards unrelated :)

I dont think losing brady tkachuk warrants "starting a rebuild". Buddy went for 59pts in 60 games and put up 2 donuts in goals and assists in the playoff. Not bad by any standards, but nothing worth losing your mind over. They got Eklund, Haltunen, Svoboda, Ersson, Burakovsky, still kept the 25th ovr they got, and they still have a FLA 2nd rounder in 2027 along with a 2029 first. Tkachuk is a top 6 forward, but we're no where near Vancouver losing Quinn Hughes. I'm a Habs fan but if I were a Sens fan i'd simply say "good riddance you POS" and move on.

Losing Brady alone isn’t rebuild for sure (and I think Ottawa won the trade with the picks). More just that if one guy leaves other key players sometimes decide they want out as well and that can be the end of it. Getting top tier talent in Canadian markets not through the draft is tougher these days so replacing him may be easier said than done

Im a sharks fan so would love to see ekland do well there. I don’t think burakovsky is the player he was in Colorado anymore and will be closer to a bottom 6 guy for the sens. Hoping Staios can make some moves to bring some good pieces back to keep them relevant and playing meaningful hockey.

TBH as a Habs there's nothing I'd love more than seeing the Sens be less competitive in the current state of the Atlantic. Sadly, my gut is telling me Brady leaving might be the best thing that happened to them. Less dumb penalties, was probably an ass of a captain too. Less media scrutiny also. Hope Eklund succeeds too. Sucks for him. Verhoeff, Stenberg adn Kesselring coming along just as he leaves as to be a tough one. Not to mention going from beautiful San Jose to Ottawa of all places lmao.

Can see why you’d be cheering on their downfall for sure haha. I agree that Brady leaving could be for the best, as long as rest of the core decides to stay. Can’t imagine it’s good for team morale having a captain that wanted out that bad.

Ekland got the short end of the stick for sure. But tbh I like the move from Grier, flip him for decent value and then draft stenberg to replace who has higher ceiling IMO. After the dark days we’ve gone through, excited to watch the sharks play some meaningful hockey over the next few years hopefully.
