Around the NHL 11 - 2023/24

[DRW204]

Dallas shits the bed against Colorado, maybe the Jets weren't that bad after all and Colorado is actually that good...

Both things can be true. Colorado is v good and the Jets were V bad, especially considering how they performed in the regular season.

The Jets gave up 28 GA In the 5 games.... that's SJS level bad and a worse stretch than teams like CHI or CBJ.

 

[Orrrules]

Jets completely schat the bed despite how well the Avs are playing.

 

[Royale With Cheese]

I am silently rooting for the Avalanche to win it all, largely because they dispatched us so quickly and thoroughly that my disappointment would be slightly muted by having lost to the Stanley Cup winner. Plus they're a great team to watch - Makar and MacKinnon alone are worth it.

I'm actively cheering against Edmonton due to Evander Kane's presence on the team. Vancouver I'd be happy to see win though.

If McDavid wants to win a Cup he'll have to leave Edmonton for I don't really know, maybe Vegas if they still have the cheat code.

I literally was just about to post this and ya beat me too it .................what happens if he connects ?

Necas gets a serious concussion, Trouba ejected and given a 5 game suspension would be my guess. Thinking Necas would be out for two weeks + - too much velocity on that elbow.

Fixed that up a little.

Necas ducks (how dare he?) and Trouba destroys his own face, and eventually kicks Necas in the back of the head with the ensuing chaotic calamity.

Has a mean streak, does old Trouba. Look at the elbow, holy suffering Moses.

And that's just one more of the many problems the NHL has. Trouba's intent was to injure, doesn't matter if he misses or not, except in the NHL where it's the result, not the intent.

If society used the NHL rule of law, I could walk into a public place and empty 50 rounds from a firearm, and as long as I don't hit anyone, I'm all good to go.

If you look from ice level opposite the flying elbow put up with intent...

Trouba literally launches himself like a human missle ... it's quite extraordinary... he's prone for 5 feet distance travelled and 5 feet off the ice surface... before he hits the glass with his face...

I was surprised Trouba didn't explode...

 

[raideralex99]

Never mind the flying elbow ... look at the skate how hard it comes down on his helmet. If it hits the back of his neck of side he is probably dead decapitated.

Trouba took 3 penalties last night but they won so all is good. It's one thing to play hard and make big clean hits but it looks like he tries to hurt other players and that needs to be addressed one of these days either by the league or by a player who has had enough.

 

[rkp]

When he was with the Jets, didnt trouba suffer a neck when he went into the boards head first and suffer a serious neck injury?

 

[WolfHouse]

Jets could have used some of that Neanderthal nastiness

 

[Orrrules]

Swayman might steal this series.

 

[bustamente]

Last second goal to end the second by the Panthers is a killer

 

[bustamente]

Wont be any players left if the ref keep kicking out players as the Bruins are not to happy they are getting their asses kicked tonight

 

[cbcwpg]

Vancouver playing against the best PP in the playoffs… so let’s take a penalty in the first minute and see how this works out…. Morons.

How do we get a guy like that on our team?

Get his spouse accepted to Med school at the U of M?

 

[buggs]

I think we need more gambling ads.

Need gambling sites to bet on gambling ads.

Can't help but enjoy all the Canucks fans who've been on here and Twitter and reddit going on and on and on about Hughes and the Canucks swept the season series and no one respects the Canucks having to watch this game.

Edit: An Oilers collapse is equally satisfying so its win win for me.

 

[bustamente]

Canucks come back to tie it, and go ahead

 

[LucianoBorsato]

What a beautiful Oilers collapse. Especially after my friend who is an Oilers fan was sending cocky texts when they were up 2-0

 

[bustamente]

Definitely something wrong with Draisaitl
