Sorokin is going to ask for a trade the moment it ends for the isles. Letting Roy burn bridges is the stupidest thing ever

Roy burning bridges?! How shocking!!

What happened with Roy and Sorokin?

 

[BenningHurtsMySoul]

Absolutely f***ing absurd that hitting a puck mid air and out of play can result in a delay of game penalty.

You should never be allowed to go down an additional player when you're on the PK because of this stupid f***ing rule.

Change it so you're allowed to put the puck over the glass if you're on the PK, but it's a penalty if you do it even strength.

They need to change that rule asap, and the stupid goalie trapezoid, and the offsides that happen well before goals are scored... and much more unfortunately.

What happened with Roy and Sorokin?

I don't know the specifics because...it's the Islanders and that organization is incredibly boring even when they are trying to be interesting but after bad start in game 01 and a hook, Sorokin has been benched and Varlamov has started every game since.

Sorokin started game 3 but got pulled again.

Patrick Roy is still probably working for the Avs and was sent there by Lord Sakic to piss off Sorokin so he could demand a trade to Colorado.

Wonder what Adam Foote is planning here

That's some 4D chess shit here.

He didn’t start game 1 or 2 I think

 

[SeawaterOnIce]

Freddy Andersen was clearly the issue in Toronto.

Huge contract extension going to kick in 8*$8.25 million. Almost impossible to trade.

Man Lou is really managing like a guy that don’t care what happens in like 2 years because there is a % chance he won’t be alive to see what happens.

Nowhere near impossible, improbable is still an exaggeration.

Sorokin started game 3 but got pulled again.

You’re right! I checked the game logs before I posted but missed this apparently.

Sorokin started games 1 & 3. He got pulled both times. Varlamov started 2 & 4.

 

[bobbyb2009]

Kings are straight mabaho

Hate to say it again, but: Yeah maybe so, but also the Oilers are pretty darn scary...

sorokin didn't play a single minute in game 1

Don’t see Sorokin on the box score for game 1 and 2

 

[Peen]

Sorokin for Demko

I kid

28 years old with a 8x8.25 contract starting next year. Odds of any goalie playing at a high level from age 29-37 is so freaking low. It’s not like the cap hit is a great bargain too..

Side note, can we please poach Stamkos if the lightning decides to dick around with him and he is forced to leave.

Stamkos is essentially what Phil Kessel was in 2018. Slow powerplay specialist with a good shot. His 5v5 xGF% continues to drop and he amassed 65% of his points on the PP with Kucherov.

I mean, we do need a PP weapon.

Also if Tampa sends him away, I imagin Stamkos is going have some serious f*** you, how dare you doubt me energy next season.

 

[VanillaCoke]

Horvat does all the work and sets up the double OT game winner

 

[valkynax]

And Oilers traded the pick for Barzal away, for Griffin Reinhart.

Lol
