HF Habs: Out of Town Thread: 2024 Playoff Edition

[Stive Morgan]

God I hate Colorado, trash team full of goons. Glad they got Lehky a Cup though.

 

[Tyson]

Agreed. But the NHL doesn't care about Nichuskin or any player. They may be more worried about public opinion after the Chicago situation though.

You make a point that is hard to disagree with. The NHL truly doesn't care about players and their well being.

Why is the Sportsnet panel trying to victimize Nichushkin? Did he not pop for PED’s? To hell with him if that’s the case.

Where was it reported it was PEDs?

I’m going off what I’ve read online. I don’t have an exact answer. I added “if true” to my post.

I have only seen he failed a drug test which could mean recreational drugs

They didn’t seem to victimize him, it was his teammates who they felt were victimized.

Brutal for this to happen in the playoffs.

Ron Maclean is talking about it like Nichushkin lost a loved one. Lol I really hope there’s more to the story.

Nichuskin obviously victimized his teammates. No way the team didn't know he was doing drugs.

We don’t even know what kind of drugs he was doing. I mean they may not have had a clue.

While I have no inside info I find it hard to believe that on a close knit team no one knew what he was doing, I could be wrong

If regular drug tests are part of his rehabilitation then there is nothing the league can do but suspend him.

Johnston again this kid is unbelievable

 

[Tyson]

Shots are 22-4...holy cow

 

[Stive Morgan]

inb4 Johnston scores 5 goals in 5 ways like Lemieux

 

[Non Player Canadiens]

Wyatt Johnston is a perfect name for a player on the Stars

yes i know he's from Toronto

guy's on fire. he's gonna score a natural hatty, then the league will revise it to 2G, 1A when the game is over

It wouldn't be surprising that the news of Nichushkin shocked the Avs players and their minds aren't completely on the game and are instead with their friend

Thanks ESPN on the compelling story on Bednar's hair, that's the type of analysis I'm looking for in a hockey broadcast

Dallas keep hitting home run with the late first round and second round. Stankoven will also be a great top 6 player.

Hintz and Robertson both second rounders. Amazing

[Redux91]

Oooook Dallas means business this year lol
Damn

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Damn Johnston is running over Colorado. KId might get himself the Conn Smythe at this rate.

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Shots are 24-9 Dallas late in 2nd period.

3-1 now. Mittlestadt scores. Drouin with the lone assist.

 

[red devil]

Drouin with an assist in his 1st game of the playoffs

Drouin with an assist in his 1st game of the playoffs

And now Drou-Drou is promoted to the 1st line.
