We are a quarter of the way through the National Hockey League season. It’s crazy that we are already in Thanksgiving week. It feels like we were at the first day of training camp just last week. The quarter-mark of the season gives general managers across the league a real feel for their postseason chances. Sure, there are still 60-plus games left, but some teams are already looking to make roster changes.
The Nashville Predators, St. Louis Blues, and Vancouver Canucks have all gotten off to slow starts, with their general managers searching for the right formula. While none of these teams are waving the white flag on the season, they need to do something fast because what they have on their rosters isn't working.
