Post-Game Talk: Storm Serj

[Levitate]

Devil and Islander fans really showing their stupidity in that thread.

One of the reasons why I'm going to f***ing laugh my ass off when a certain Devil inevitably gets hurt. Don't wish it upon him, but that f***ing trash bag fanbase deserves it.

Considering it's Fox and how that play was developing, IMO he clearly saw Aho was facing/moving the wrong direction, there was a lot of open ice right down the side of the slot, and Fox could step up into that to present himself as a clear pass target out of the corner.
He saw the space, saw the guy covering him was going the wrong direction, and started to break down the middle of the ice. Aho realized he was screwed and just tried to get in the way. Aho's head is up and looking at Fox as he's starting to curl back, looking for his man, sees Fox is jumping down the middle and there's no way Aho can recover, so he moves into Fox's path.
You're not entitlted to the space if you move into another player and impede his progress like that, it's interference.

Theyll call for a congressional investigation when Little Jackie gets his head taken off admiring a pass later this year

Hey Folks,

You can't go to an opposition team forum and start arguing with an opposing fan, It's considered trolling. That is what the main forums are for, since it's neutral ground.

I'm also upset about Fox, and have my opinion about Aho. But when you crash another team forum you are setting yourself up for warnings and bans, which could lead to restricted functions to your account.

If you feel someone there is making a personal attack towards you or something is breaking the rules, report it.

Thanks!

Leo

I'll put that top 4 against the top 4 in any division. The Metro has arguably been the best division in hockey the last few years and the Canes have been at the top of it. They are good and it's not because the bottom half is mediocre and the Caps and Penguins have seen better days.

Pacific Division scares me.

Vegas, Vancouver looking legit so far, and now McDavid's back, so Edmonton shouldn't have a problem scoring.

And the Kings and Ducks are surprising a lot of people so far.

Still no news. I'm on pins and needles.

Kings have kind of been around and decent/good for a while. They look good, their numbers look great but despite all of that I just can't take them seriously as a contender.

Anaheim on the other hand is a bit of a surprise. McTavish and Mintyukov look like the franchise pillars. There are a handful of teams that always look like they're a year away (Sens, Sabres, Wings) but this team really fits the bill. Lots of really good pieces already in place and they have a few other ones on the way.

Vince said the Rangers are off today so we probably won't get an update until tomorrow when they travel and we get the "so and so didn't travel and is out indefinitely"

Yeah, they almost always get their info during media availability unless somebody has a source like that caller on SiriusXM supposedly did. Rangers are usually really good about stopping injury news leakage. The only way we'd get info today is if they released something on PR/Socials and if they did, it would probably be really, really bad (ie. season ending surgery) news.

The reason for Laf's mustache.

He's a good kid.

Aren't you also on pins and needles?

 

[Fitzy]

Aren't you also on pins and needles?

Most people are.

I on the other hand haven't felt anything since 2019.

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

If it were bad im sure it would have trickled out by now.

Theres some stuff circulating around twitter but its not verified (none of it overly terrible.)

 

[bobbop]

By this logic why is mackinnon not the captain for the avs? The best player is not always the captain. By your logic shesty should also be the captain


I’m going to need more definition on what pack a lunch means categorically lol

It ain’t happening any time soon...like before lunch

For starters, I’d like to know if Fox is on the plane.

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

Don't know if Neil Smith (yes, that Neil Smith) has better sources than anyone else, but he just said 2-4 weeks.



Posting this one since its from someone who is at least an actual person that we've all heard of before (and it's consistent with some of the other stuff thats been trickling out on twitter.)

The Staal one happened in the 3rd and was blatant, clearly sticking his leg out. Luckily it missed Trocheck.

 

[Riche16]

If you can get the inside scoop on what happened, we'd love to know.

After asking around... here's the explanation: (Don't shoot the messenger here lol)

Apparently the powers that be feel that for home games they're going to save some $ on studio crew. Studio is probably 5-8 crew... that crap last night was probably 2 members max.

What we saw last night was a "protest" of sorts by production in hopes that management changes their minds.

The new studio that MSG spent however much $ on, will be used for away games.

If you can believe that. I'm shaking my head as I write this.

My friend is going to do some more digging as he wasn't working last night, but that was "the plan"

Okay but have you considered that Aho committed a penalty that got another player injured and then showed how big of a bitch he has always been?

 

[zlev]

call up Rempe for the next game against Carolina

That is just crazy. Insane like Crazy Eddie's prices. Why didn't they just forego building a new studio and save money that way?

they built it with leftovers from the dome in Vegas and all the diners that closed down during covid

If true this is good news as it isn't a season ender.

MCL's are self healing as they actually have sufficient vascular supply. No surgery required.

Worse case is a few months, best case is a week.

Tore both my MCLs in college in subsequent seasons. I'm a goalie though so it took be a lot longer to heal to be back on the ice, took about 4 months for my left one and my right one was a little worse and took 6 months. The MCL is strained WAY more in goalies though, basically it's the ligament that lets you go into the butterfly position with your knees so the recovery time for goalies is longer.

I was actually riding the bike and working out in the gym on my rehab plan almost at 100% for a couple of months before I was able to get on the ice and go down into a butterfly. Our trainers always said if I was a skater, I probably would've been 2-4 weeks with the first one and 4-6 weeks with the second one that was a little worse.

They could also ask for more sponsorship money from Anheuser Busch to keep the Bud Light Bar open

NYR somehow below SJS and CHI in offensive generation. Trending towards yikes level

My best friend’s sister’s boyfriend’s brother’s girlfriend heard from this guy who knows this kid who’s going with a girl who saw Fox pass-out at 31 Flavors last night.

don't kill the messenger. Seems like the info and source was kosher tho
