Around the NHL: The 2024 NHL Playoff Thread

Jets kill a double minor and score. Boy that’s the good stuff

 

[Beerz]

Oh Helly

 

[Chainshot]

Tampa going down 2-0 and Bob making one of the best saves of the year.

Helle... tend the goal friend.

 

[Chainshot]

Manson making up for his dookie performance in Game 1 now with that goal coming out of the box.

 

[Ace]

You know all that playoff intensity and drama and excitement? Vancouver/Nashville has none of it. This is a Sunday afternoon game that you get angry is the only one on

Colorado just rang the post twice in like 5 seconds.

[Chainshot]

Seven... four... one. That's the Islanders shots per period for this one.

Georgiev found his game - at least temporarily - tonight. Awesome performance from the Avs. And MacKinnon and Rantanen aren't even on top of their game right now.

Rumors of Colorado's demise are greatly exaggerated.

Winnipeg cannot match Colorado's speed. And the Avs 2nd and 3rd lines dominated.

I wonder if Bennett broke a finger. Couldn't have happened to a bigger douche bag, but I would take him on the Sabres every day of the week. If someone is going to be sucker punching the opponents in a scrum, may as well be the inflictor rather than in the barrel.

32 Thoughts speculating on Bylsma maybe going to be Seattle's coach. Oh, I would so turn on them if they have both him and Botts.

The dangers of an exhaustive coaching search.

I want it to happen so bad now.

Did the Kraken fire Hakstol?

Did he and Botts ever overlap in Buffalo? I can't remember the order of how things went down.

Did the Kraken fire Hakstol?

They were speculating on that since the GM didn't exactly praise him in his season ending presser.

Murray and Bylsma were canned at same time

I don't, I've been rooting for the Kraken. It's like the heel turn for Vegas for me.

Yeah. These type of players havealways existed, so it's best to find your own douchebags to piss the world off.

 

[Chainshot]

Did the Kraken fire Hakstol?

No but they have wondered if it is going to happen.

No, but Botts was AGM in Pittsburgh when Dan was HC.

They were speculating on that since the GM didn't exactly praise him in his season ending presser.

Yep, sounds like they may make a change. Granted, the issue with watching a lot of Kraken games seems to be losing an entire line of their scoring depth when they are a depth scoring team is more on the GM than the coach... so... yeah.

Murray and Bylsma were canned at same time

Correct, then the Sabres dipped yet again into the Penguins basket of castaways to get Botterill as GM. But they did work together - he and Fitzgerald were Ray Shero's AGMs there at the time.

Ah, thanks. Hadn't seen that.

 

[Chainshot]

Lokomotiv gets beat by Metallurg, Magnitogorsk wins the KHL championship.

 

[Chainshot]

Sharks have fired David Quinn. Is that Don Granato's music? Columbus and San Jose seem like teams that his skills fit...
