@@simon-pierrelussier2775 more just saying Gabe is with the team, but I want him healthy and finishing out his career playing the game he loves not sitting watching.
Could the sabres wish for palm trees so they could attract better veteran players, they have a great core of young players, they just need glue to put them together
For the Wild the cap penalties really hurt us when we have injuries. Just no depth whatsoever and a huge step back in talent. Especially when Eriksson Ek is out!
Thanks for your consistently funny and informational content Shannon, idk how you keep up the way you do and always have the great energy you do. You’re the best!!
Actually full 60 min would be my wish. Blew another game against Flyers tonight. Van/ Anaheim x 2 /Phil / Mtl x 2 - list goes on and on where they have left points on the table.
Buffalo: A new owner, who’ll immediately hire a President of Hockey Operations and a GM worth a flying handshake. Might as well wish for unicorns and gumdrop rainbows, too. They’d happen before the first three items.
Devils have kinda already gotten their wish. Luke has been making his detractors look silly all season long. Scoring hasn't fully reflected his impact and ofc he started injured, but he's been lights out since returning and always improving. Great video, thanks Shannon! 👍
Devils wish could be consistent play, they are very inconsistent. Start on time,score early etc. or even Depth scoring but again NJ fans dont want that cuz all they want is big physical guys who have less than 4 goals.
It's funny that we both thought consistency for Calgary. They will smoke teams in one week then immediately fall on their face, their rink also remains old and poorly designed but that will change eventually.
Carolina is in absolutely critically desperate need of a 2C and another top 6 Left Winger. Going into the season with only 4 top 6 calibre forwards was a very dumb decision.
For the oilers I would say having Arvidsson & Jeff Skinner turn things around would be nice. Another would be Bouchard improving his defensive play and reduce his mistakes made. Often times once Bouchard makes a costly mistake he’ll be put right back on the ice and make a second mistake whether that’s a penalty or a turnover it often times converts into a goal against
I think I would like to see the Blackhawks bring up some more Prospects. Bedard I think will be fine, but I think he has been sitting back and not taking enough shots. I wish he would shoot more.
I love what you do but this could have been way more fun. Islanders wish Roy played goalie, Preds go on a 10 game winning streak, Ducks see Zegras magic puck handling, etc. You get the point, lofty funny asks for the holidays. Just a suggestion from a huge fan.
I can't really argue with the focus thing. I'm sure the stuff about the power play has gotten in there and builds pressure, a lot of players were dealing with sickness, Pavelski retiring, Seguin's injury, Robo's and Johnston's goal droughts (Hintz had one too but he seems to be getting it back), the Finland trip, the offensive and defensive lines have been in a blender all season, and there's been barely any time to breathe. Yeah they could definitely use some focus. And a break.
Honestly, i have officially adopted Columbus into the "can a Canadian team finally win a cup conversation." Their fans have been through enough! Can we please just have a year where the Jackets can play fun exciting hockey and give their fans the gift they deserve!
Honestly the way Nashville has been playing lately has me hopeful that they might go on a run and have a chance to get to playoffs (yes I'm delusional I'm also a buffalo fan that thinks the same for buffalo from time to time)
Latest Tocchet interview; "How come you guys didn't ask for Petey & Millsy today? Seriously? It's not about the names on the back, it's about the crest" 👍
They might get that in the game against winnipeg on the 31st. The jets play a back to back, at home vs Nashville and then in Colorado. And the jets this season have played like crap in back to backs. They're 0-3, against Nashville, Columbus and Anaheim. All 3 were tied 1-1 going into the 3rd
Five columns! 😠 Torches and pitchforks! 🤣 It's all good, for now, as I patiently wait to see what you'll say about the Habs' wishes (I know what it is, DACH, I know you've been injured ridiculously often and Jarred Tinordi destroyed your knee last year when he sent you flying on Chicago's bench and you had a messed up ACL PLUS MCL, please Santa, have Kirby get his health fully back for the new year, so that he can have something at least resembling the massive improvement he had in his first season with the Habs, even if he was injured twice in the season and only played 58 games, as a RW on the 1st line, I miss those tic-tac-toe going from Suzuki to Dach to Caufield into the net, among other things, also the man looks depressed, get him to have a better outlook, that'll bring his love for the game back, we wanted a big fast centre for decades, we can't have him go completely bust like so many other 2019 first round picks!).
Flyers would wish for a goal tending solution. with a reliable goalie they'd be well off. Then they'd not need to use players as a form of extra goalie pads every game
Eh, cotter hasn't done much for NJ since his great start. He probably provides more than Holtz, but it's not a terrible trade or anything. Also, while I don't expect him to progress much Holtz is still young.
@ I remember his quick start. Was good for him and hopefully he can produce for your team. I liked Cotter and he has 5 more goals than Holtz at this point
The Habs should wish for a backup goaltender. Primeau is just not good enough and Montembault is getting overworked as a result. For the league I would wish that the 4 Nations Faceoff is a big success so hopefully the do it with more teams next time.
Sabres: Palm trees
Exactly my first thought :D :D :D
You win! 😅
Can someone please explain the palm trees joke 😅

Coyotes are wishing for a new arena
Coyotes who? Never heard of her
Maybe a time machine?
What Coyotes?
Getting a team first would help since there's literally no team. Having moved to SLC
Yetis?
You could never make me leave this channel.
No matter what
Please do the video with your wishes. I’d enjoy the heck out of that
And to THG, a very Merry Christmas
Thanks for the video and the chuckle(s)! Two front teeth would be high on a few player lists!
Love that Nucks Christmas sweater!
Blues have a franchise record of 9 draft picks playing in the World Cup this year. Talent on the way awesome
The hockey guy’s Christmas wish. Probably one channel where he can always see everything on one device with one subscription.
All I want for Christmas is Gabe Landeskog...
*a healthy Gabe Landeskog
@@FrankM-u1w It's on the list of wishes genies can't grant!

I'll tell you what us Buffalo Sabre fans want for Christmas! And that is for the Pegulas to sell the Buffalo Sabres. Sadly that will never happen tho
I want 19 consecutive losses and sole possession of the record.
@xbreachedthetosx7591 Its something right, a start??? lmao
Could the sabres wish for palm trees so they could attract better veteran players, they have a great core of young players, they just need glue to put them together
😂😂😂😂
Nah. I want 19 losses in a row and sole possession of the record.
The Blues would like some offense and to score more than 1 goal in a game
For Edmonton, first thing I thought was "low goals against" seeing they have the best offense collectively for the past 2.3 seasons now.
Thanks!
For the Wild the cap penalties really hurt us when we have injuries. Just no depth whatsoever and a huge step back in talent. Especially when Eriksson Ek is out!
Merry Christmas Shannon!
Love the content. Thank you, shannon
Some of your continued content is mind blowing. This is awesome

Completely agree with you on CBJ.

Sabres: pegula out
Love the sweater Shannon! 😻
Buffalo: A new owner, who’ll immediately hire a President of Hockey Operations and a GM worth a flying handshake.
Might as well wish for unicorns and gumdrop rainbows, too. They’d happen before the first three items.
I’ll happily accept sole possession of the consecutive loss record at 19. We are so close!
Great segment!
Hope you do one again for Valentine's Day or Easter or whichever holiday warrants another version later this season!
Devils have kinda already gotten their wish. Luke has been making his detractors look silly all season long. Scoring hasn't fully reflected his impact and ofc he started injured, but he's been lights out since returning and always improving. Great video, thanks Shannon! 👍

The predators look like they will start climbing up the rankings but won't make it. So a lottery tank is really the best outcome for this season.
half way or almost half way, buffalo's christmas wish is palm trees and sand.
4:42 McDavid extension
I love the Canucks Christmas sweater! What a beauty
For Carolina I thought of "Bring home play onto road" for both regular season and playoffs tbh
Flyers wish for consistent goaltending.
Oilers: LA in the opening round.
That's a good one.
It really is the gift that keeps on giving.
It's funny that we both thought consistency for Calgary. They will smoke teams in one week then immediately fall on their face, their rink also remains old and poorly designed but that will change eventually.
5:20 - Montreal.. Carey Price starts practicing/dresses for a game.
My wish as a Habs fan would be for Dach to reach his potential but it's looking less and less likely with every game
TBH I don't think Oilers want to play LA in round 1 for 4th time in a row. Just the law of averages dictate LA is due
St. Louis: Dvorsky and Snuggerud are coming. Patience Grasshopper...
Great Video, as usual, Shannon
Love the Canucks holiday sweater!!!
Merry Christmas Shannon
Carolina is in absolutely critically desperate need of a 2C and another top 6 Left Winger. Going into the season with only 4 top 6 calibre forwards was a very dumb decision.
Avs def got an early xmas gift with the lumberyard boys.
Still would like to see them play a full 60 too. Pk needs to be better.
Agreed, the first period especially needs to be cleaned up. Health is still an issue for us too, we just can't catch a break.
PK has been getting better. It's the PP that has been rough
@soulknife20 compromise: special teams 🤝
If Columbus actually wanted something for Christmas everyone would get them the best gifts, just like you would for someone who lost a family member
the buffalo one LMFAO
Good video , been waiting for this one
For the oilers I would say having Arvidsson & Jeff Skinner turn things around would be nice.
Another would be Bouchard improving his defensive play and reduce his mistakes made. Often times once Bouchard makes a costly mistake he’ll be put right back on the ice and make a second mistake whether that’s a penalty or a turnover it often times converts into a goal against
An exorcism 😂 let’s go Buffalo!
For the Kings, scoring on a powerplay would’ve also been an acceptable answer 😂
That was my guess.
Or...getting Doughty back ASAP
I'm not even a Toronto fan, and I want to see them make a run in the playoffs. I feel so bad for their fans.
lovely video as always. for calgary my wish is that huby keeps playing the way he has -- this afternoon is a good sign :))
Ah yes my Sabres with the devil to be released 😂. Love your content!
I think I would like to see the Blackhawks bring up some more Prospects.
Bedard I think will be fine, but I think he has been sitting back and not taking enough shots.
I wish he would shoot more.
Exorcism for the Sabres would be good. So would getting Anthony Robbins as a motivational speaker.
Bolts is definitely depth scoring. Gotta get the gritty 3rd and 4th line goals more regularly
I love what you do but this could have been way more fun. Islanders wish Roy played goalie, Preds go on a 10 game winning streak, Ducks see Zegras magic puck handling, etc. You get the point, lofty funny asks for the holidays. Just a suggestion from a huge fan.
McDavid hasn’t had an issue with injuries most years. I’d wish for Arvidsson to stay healthy and start contributing.
I can't really argue with the focus thing. I'm sure the stuff about the power play has gotten in there and builds pressure, a lot of players were dealing with sickness, Pavelski retiring, Seguin's injury, Robo's and Johnston's goal droughts (Hintz had one too but he seems to be getting it back), the Finland trip, the offensive and defensive lines have been in a blender all season, and there's been barely any time to breathe.
Yeah they could definitely use some focus. And a break.
As a Panthers fan, I want better D-men, although we're kinda looking like we're setting in now.
playoffs baby go sens go
Vancouver could use motivation for games at home?
I would like to wish all hockey fans a merry Christmas LETS GO RANGERS
4:24 Oilers maybe want more clutch goalkeeping or Atleast more consistent quality goalkeeping
Santa....I wish for More THE HOCKEY GUY! Oh yeah and no coal in my stocking again this year!
Your spot on with Vancouver 😊
JT Miller can always come play for the AVS.
Honestly, i have officially adopted Columbus into the "can a Canadian team finally win a cup conversation." Their fans have been through enough! Can we please just have a year where the Jackets can play fun exciting hockey and give their fans the gift they deserve!
I think the Kings want a present with the number 8 on it.
As a Kings fan i want a functional powerplay
Quebec wishes for a team
Merry Christmas, Buffalo.
A good xmas for the sharks is to hold on to a lead in the 3rd period
Pens: a goalie who won't give up a goal in the first 3 shots faced.
Honestly the way Nashville has been playing lately has me hopeful that they might go on a run and have a chance to get to playoffs (yes I'm delusional I'm also a buffalo fan that thinks the same for buffalo from time to time)
Marchessault and forsberg have been on fire the past 5 games. They finally found a line that works 😂
I was going to say Toronto's probably the only team you could put the stanley cup on there.....but your choice was a good one....lol
Latest Tocchet interview; "How come you guys didn't ask for Petey & Millsy today? Seriously? It's not about the names on the back, it's about the crest" 👍
For Colorado I'd say a blowout win. Feels like they need that 7-1 win against a good team to get them going.
They might get that in the game against winnipeg on the 31st. The jets play a back to back, at home vs Nashville and then in Colorado. And the jets this season have played like crap in back to backs. They're 0-3, against Nashville, Columbus and Anaheim. All 3 were tied 1-1 going into the 3rd
maybe Bedard focus more on assists for Chicago, score when opportunity presents?
JT Miller mad at EP? In COL seems like Georgiev didn't vibe w anyone; now that he's gone its been reported its a happier room.

It was 13 in-a-row.
As a Ducks fan, I'd say new coach or healthy players, but a bright future ain't bad at all regardless
Sabres wishing for a fire extinguisher.
Rangers are currently using it.
Winnipeg is wishing for a deep playoff run.
Honestly, I just wish Scheifele would wear his mouthguard properly.
@@dennish.7708
A few others like that too... MattTkachuk for one.
😄
kucherov is already on pace for 102 assists, so that would be very possible given he plays the rest of the season.
That's over 82 games, but he's already missed 2.
Flyers would wish for a goal tending solution. with a reliable goalie they'd be well off. Then they'd not need to use players as a form of extra goalie pads every game
Happy new years
Detroit: consistent effort
New Jersey keep pulling together as team up and down ice?
I almost spit out my drink when you said exorcism
VGK could be for Holtz to start producing. Looking like a lop sided trade for the Devils with Cotter going the other way
Eh, cotter hasn't done much for NJ since his great start. He probably provides more than Holtz, but it's not a terrible trade or anything. Also, while I don't expect him to progress much Holtz is still young.

San jose sharks - next step for Will Smith. A 25 point second half would be good :)
Kings need a power play unit
Whalers coming back to hartford🐳
If this happened and Saskatoon got a team all would be right with the world.
@ or atleast quebec
a point per game from laine would be nice
Good video idea. Love it

For Edmonton an elite defenceman.
