League News: 2018-19 NHL Talk - (News n' Scores n' Stuff) Vol. 4

[StrikingDistance]

Just relax and channel your hockey god for the Sens to beat the Gilligans.

 

[Corby78]

NBC trying to sell CBJ/Pitt rivalry lol

 

[Midnight Judges]

CBJ has not even been close to scoring a goal.

Torts hockey is so friggin ugly.

Oh well at least they wasted a bunch of draft picks for nothing.

 

[Blitzkrieg365]

The Duchene curse is real.

 

[AlexBrovechkin8]

I know I should be taking some joy in this Columbus debacle given their mocking of Kuzy and their acting like they won a Cup when they beat the Caps in OT but this is just sad to watch.

 

[RandyHolt]

Watch CBus tie it up. Its all about 3 point games.

 

[Langway]

The Duchene curse is real.

The funny thing is are they really going to want to re-sign him and have to give up their 2020 first rounder? I sure wouldn't if they miss the playoffs. Who knows what that team looks like next season. It's bad enough they may give up a pick in the 10-15 range for him as a rental.

I continue to wonder if canning Torts is their last move. Their schedule is rough but Torts comes across as a guy without answers. Really tough situation.

 

[Silky mitts]

Duchene with his 1st shot at 18:24 in 3rd, center mass, CBJ goalless in 117 minutes

Who would they even replace him with? That team is a mess, going all in at the TDL is going to hurt them big time.

 

[AlexBrovechkin8]

Well they can't score goals or acclimate new forwards to the system and I don't think that's Torts' forte. I think what they need to decide is if Torts is back next season even if they miss this year. If they answer is no then he needs to go -- it's time for them to hit the panic button.

 

[RandyHolt]

Did he come back from the locker room after getting a bandaid, to get an ENG?

 

[AlexBrovechkin8]

Also, Panarin looks like he wants to be any where in the world but on the ice in a Columbus jersey. He is clearly checked out. Tough to watch.

[CapitalsCupReality]

Columbus skaters should be ashamed.

Total dick IMO. What a shit effort.

 

[OviTaughtMe]

I truly feel for CBJ. Yeah, they’re annoying but that fanbase deserves a break.

Damn

 

[895]

Ottawa is just a punching bag.

 

[tenken00]

Nothing has been going our way

 

[StrikingDistance]

The BJ's personnel management:

Not really that tough to watch

 

[Sam Spade]

Jackets done f'd up with that non-trade of Panarin and Bob, oh well. Basically a loss to the Pens on Saturday and it's season over.

Pens playing without Letang and still winning should scare other teams.

 

[StrikingDistance]

Well, the Sens suck, but the Gilligans aren't far behind.

 

[sycamore]

Love how ESPN were crowing about Columbus "winning" this years trade deadline. Yeah, nice call.

 

[895]

I still think Columbus gets in.

I don't feel Montreal is very good.

 

[twabby]

Love how ESPN were crowing about Columbus "winning" this years trade deadline. Yeah, nice call.

Yeah that was kind of weird.

Vegas was without a doubt the biggest winner when they traded for and re-signed Mark Stone. I honestly think Vegas is the strongest team in the West right now.
