GDT: 2018-19 Other Games Around the League (Part II)

[Quid Pro Clowe]

I think the Sharks match up better with the Blues. Who are you guys cheering for, purely from a selfish who could the Sharks beat prospective.

Only thing on my mind right now is Colorado.

Not sure what Atkinson was thinking there!

Low key don't believe that you dont have one thought about all the other series going on. I love how everyone gives the cliche answers like you're being interviewed by the media. Hate to break it to everyone but we have no barring on the outcome of these games haha no matter how much crazy sh** we type on the internets. Also I didnt imply the Sharks were going to advance I just asked who everyone wanted to win on the other side of the bracket and that hopefully it was the weaker ishhhh team.

Ken Hitchcock I think once talked about how the NHL is shifting. Back in the day coaches would manage their rosters for the entire playoffs; in series one they'd still be thinking about the conference and SCF and how to rest/deploy players. But in recent years the thinking has changed where teams and players generally completely focus on the now and beating the team in front of them, letting the chips fall where they may.

Back to the game, very short shifts.

I watch Dallas and St. Louis for sure. But I'm not concerned with who the Sharks may or may not play because it doesn't matter if they don't take care of the task at hand. Add the fact potential match ups can be thrown off the rails by injuries.

Interesting to note that other teams do shorten the benches during OT, but not really amongst the defense.

Officials already let Boston get away with a clear high stick; they have to call that!

 

[Led Zappa]

Yea!!!

 

[JackSkellington]

Good shit Columbus

 

[Led Zappa]

I'll be honest, it wasn't a fun game to play

 

[Juxtaposer]

That Bruins-Jackets OT was awesome. End to end action.

Being objective, so far the best/most entertaining series of the 2nd round.

Man, after our 1st round, I’ll be perfectly content with a quiet, boring, 4 game round 2 for the Sharks...

I dobt we sweep but I'd love nothing more but quick, uneventful round 2. Give them the time they need to heal.

Same and same.

 

[OrrNumber4]

Soft game so far. Feels like everyone is just missing scoring.

 

[OrrNumber4]

What happened to Mrazek?

Poor PP from Carolina. Like a preseason game...

 

[LadyStanley]

That means their #3 goalie should be dressed and sitting on bench as backup..

 

[LadyStanley]

OK, then

 

[drunksage]

Well that escalated quickly

 

[OrrNumber4]

Glorious tip. Was that Niederreiter?

 

[Pavelski2112]

Canes are rolling. Didn't expect that this season. Big 2009 vibes.

 

[Evil Janney]

OK, then

Has there been a case of an emergency goalie getting ice time in a playoff game?
