2017-18 Around the League | Congratulations Washington Capitals!

[KeithIsActuallyBad]

Actually I was thinking of Eddie Lack. He was the other big name out there that alot of people thought would make a good starter. Now the guy barely looks AHL quality.

That makes more sense. I remember hearing about the Sabres many problems and how Lehner was not one of them.

Why is there a game on right now?

Shanahan and Tory got together Tuesday to promote Tuesday Dec. 19 as Toronto Maple Leaf Day. On Dec. 19, 1917, the Toronto Arenas — who would eventually become the St. Pats and then the Maple Leafs — played their first game, and the first game in the newly formed National Hockey League. (The Arenas lost 10-9 to the Montreal Wanderers on the same night the Canadiens beat the Senators 7-4.)

To commemorate it, the Leafs will play the Carolina Hurricanes, dressed in throwback Toronto Arena jerseys. The game will be played at 2 p.m., with the Leafs hoping to pack the Air Canada Centre with as many kids as possible. Season-ticket subscribers are asked to bring a child with them that game, or to donate the ticket back to the MLSE Foundation, which will give it to a school-aged fan.

“Our birthday comes on a Tuesday,” Shanahan said. “It is a school night. So the decision was made to do it at two in the afternoon, get kids in the city incentivized a little bit to get the afternoon off school and come watch a hockey game and make the arena a very youthful place with our next generation of hockey fans.”

I love it. Euro game! For once a weekday normal hour game

Anaheim is losing 2-0
Minnesota is losing 3-1

3-0 NYR over the Ducks in the second. Desharnais has two gorgeous setups on goals. I really liked him when he was an Oiler.

Been having a heck of a season so far. Think the two points tonight takes him up to 17 points and around .6 ppg.

Would have liked to see us give him a cheap 1 year deal. He wasn't amazing in his time with us but was effective and certainly not a liability. And of course the OT winner against the Sharks in that period we absolutely dominated and should've ended 20 times was pretty sweet too.

I think this next stretch of games is where Vegas loses a bit of steam. They've got some tough opponents coming up and the parity of the Pacific will begin to become more and more apparent approaching the deadline. All the props to them for launching out of the gate like a bat out of hell and overcoming the injuries in net. But I think now that they see teams in the rearview mirror, there'll be a bit more pressure on them.

Go Bolts.

4-1 NYR
thank god we didn't have that review

Ottawa losing again , maybe they shake things up after game

 

[Del Preston]

Ottawa got trounced after leading by two goals.

better trade Karlsson

 

[Wewillrise]

Didn’t notice both games coming up are back to backs for the opposing teams. Can the Oilers beat two backups...

Winning both those games would be enormous.

 

[BlackDogg]

better trade Karlsson

Heard he scored his second goal of the season already tonight so his $ went up.

 

[CantHaveTkachev]

the atmosphere in Vegas is unreal...no wonder they win so many games

can't wait watch the Oilers in February there

Nashville and Vegas both have pretty incredible atmospheres. Probably the two best barns in the league at the moment in that regard.

 

[MoneyGuy]

better trade Karlsson

...to Edmonton for a second rounder.

 

[Ritchie Valens]

Anaheim, I award you no points and may God have mercy on your souls.

 

[Del Preston]

Dallas lost in OT.

 

[Mav3rick07]

Dallas lost in OT.

Yup. They were up by one with four minutes left too.

Thank you Washington .

Radulov celebrated like a goof after his goal and then the Caps tied the game forty seconds later.
