Around the League 2017-18

[Mortimer Snerd]

Torts has a definite shelf life, before his teams stop playing for him and everyone hates him. You gotta hire him at the right time - when your team is about ready to compete (and has good leadership). He's not the guy you want to develop a team of young players that are not yet ready to compete.

Interesting take on Torts. You might be right.

If Rinne cools off (he will), the Mustard Tigers are beatable.

Problem is Preds have Juuse Saros as the backup. Probably the most ready to start backup in the NHL, with elite level potential. If Rinne falters at all in playoffs it won't get any easier if they turn to Saros.

I'm not talking about a complete collapse, I'm just talking about a fall back to earth.

Rinne should be a Heart contender at this point. He's had a much higher QS% than Price did in the season he won the Heart, and no skater is wowing me.

He might have Elite level potential but Rinne is an elite goalie id rather take the chance.

Nit pick - its the Hart.

You don't like MacKinnon? He is almost single-handedly dragging Avs into the playoffs.

He's the only guy who I have over Rinne

Fair enough.

Can't dispute that Rinne is having a great season.

 

[Tom ServoMST3K]

Cheering for Florida to make it in the East.

 

[bustamente]

Maybe to many ex Rangers on the Bolts roster

Mackinnon doing Mackinnon things

Wonder if we'll be hosting them instead of Minny.

 

[Adam da bomb]

Will there be multiple 100 pt scorers this season?

 

[bustamente]

Chicago officially out, first time in 10 years, is Coach Q far behind?

 

[AlphaLackey]

Whoops didn't refresh the standings before questioning this.

 

[Daximus]

Will there be multiple 100 pt scorers this season?

Should be. Should be multiple 40+ goal scorers as well. I'm thinking around 8.

 

[Aavco Cup]

No change from previous forecast at ASB

King Maxel GOAT.

Amazing

funniest thread in a LONG time on the main board. a couple of vids in there are pure gold. You have to watch the old Florida Panthers ad in which Olli Jokinen goes around and tells all his teammates to get going. Incredibly weird stuff going on here.

I may never un-cringe after watching that Flames music video...it's like everything bad about the 1980s distilled into 4 minutes and 38 seconds of suck. I'm in physical pain. For the masochists among you: http://hfboards.mandatory.com/posts/143345359/

No, no, no, nooooooo!!! The 80's were the Golden Age of Music. But this... this horror... it's burning its way into my brain. I can't unsee it. Abominations such as this should never be resurrected. Wait... wait... resurrected. That's the answer. I know where to find relief.



Aaaah, I feel so much better now.

Oh, there was good music in the 80s, but the worst of it was very very bad - and that Flames video was super-concentrated bad-80s.

 

[Aavco Cup]

I think she just wants to attend a few white out games

Celine Dion cancels 3 weeks of Las Vegas residency shows
