It isn't like Florida's owner said "Oooo those Red Wings. Signing Stevie Weiss. We'll show them by finishing ahead of them in the standings." That would be absurd.
Speaking of Florida, I just realized I have no idea who the owner is, who the GM is, what the name of the arena is, nor can I name 5 players on the team. Looking at their roster I would have gotten Huberdeau, Markstrom, Scott Gomez, and Versteeg and he is only a guess as I had no clue if he was still signed there or not. Fun Fact: Brian Campbell is a Florida Panther. Remember him?
