GDT: 2018-19 Other Games Around the League

[seroes]

The kings and ducks struggling to start the year just makes me happy every time I watch them. Now if only someone would turn off John Gibson's God mode

 

[spintheblackcircle]

I have a feeling the Kings will end up with the 1st pick next year.

Quick is having knee surgery. I'm telling you the Kings are going to end up with Hughes.

 

[Coily]

Kovalchuk wanted to play for a good team.

LOL

 

[Dicdonya]

Man Elias Petterson is so good. Also, impressed with Goldobin in the games I have watched this year, and he looks much bigger then I remember him being.

 

[FunkyPhin]

I hate the canucks, but damn Pettersson Horvat and Boeser with some nice skilled plays, looking great

 

[Dicdonya]

Dang, really not a fan of EDM's depth players scoring lately, makes them a very dangerous team.

 

[Levie]

Would be nice for Karlsson's confidence to give him some PP time... Who am I kidding just give it to Melker.

 

[Negatively Positive]

I know it's early but there doesn't seem to be any cupcakes in the Pacific like Arizona, Vancouver, and Edmonton was last year. If they can keep it up then they've gotten better quicker than I thought and could make the Pacific more competitive than I'd like.

 

[Barrie22]

For how much every one says the pacific is always the worst. It is amazing that the worst division can have 4 top 10 teams. Lol

NHL.com needs to start rankings teams by points percentage. The NHL does do this the actual purposes of ranking teams during the season (for waiver rights or ASG coaching), but their website just organizes things by points, which is lazy and disingenuous.

Vancouver with 18 points in 15 games is not ahead of Montreal with 16 points in 13 games, Pittsburgh with 15 points in 12 games, NYI with 17 points in 13 games, Winnipeg with 17 points in 14 games, or Colorado with 17 points in 14 games. They are behind all these teams.

Bob Boughner seems like a good dude and decent coach but it's pretty bonkers to see that his shitty PK system is still the same as ever. League worst right now at 68.4%.

I don’t think we make the SCF without his defensive systems. That was the best performance we’ve gotten out of Burns and Vlasic. Special teams may not be his forte, but he was fantastic for us in terms of getting the most from our defenseman.

And made the finals 2 of last 3 seasons.

 

[BaileyMacTavish]

Lucic just blind sighted a rookie and then sucker punched him when he was down.What an upstanding human being :

VGK loses Haula to injury (fell awkwardly); LBI. Taken off on stretcher.

VGK trainer joined by TML trainer and doctor on ice.


VGK has yet to have full healthy and unsuspended team. (And doesn't look like full roster will be available any time soon with Statsny and now Haula out injured; Schmidt should be back from suspension soon.)

They've got 13 points in 15 games, Haula is almost certainly out long term, and Stastny is confirmed as well.

They're not making the playoffs. Looks like fluke teams that beat us in the playoffs are cursed to not even make it the following year.

 

[slocal]

Vegas finally dealing with reality?

 

[LadyStanley]

Definitely a big dose of reality. Have been sub 0.500 most of the season (one or two games at .500).

There has been a team meeting. Coaching staff is on their case that they are not playing as hard/energy-filled as last season (hard to sustain).

But not having your #1 d-man for first quarter of the season makes it harder.

 

[BaileyMacTavish]

Malkin is low key dirty. That shoulder to head was deliberate. 5 + 10 misconduct and he's off

 

[Kcoyote3]

So I have some exciting news, I'll be going to the Tampa vs. Sens game tonight. If anyone wants some breakdown of former Sharks I can post after the game!

Nah, f*** them.

 

[Kcoyote3]

I'm honestly impressed with how Tampa is consistently tops in the league in attendance. This place is packed to the top of the upper bowl against the Sens.

 

[Kcoyote3]

Overall, Tierney is the same. Demelo acts like he knows what he is doing but loses the puck constantly. Boedker idk even know if he is playing

 

[SJSharksfan39]

They have one of the most fun teams to watch in the league. I'm not surprised, other then maybe wishing the Rays in Baseball were the same.

 

[Quid Pro Clowe]

I can't wait until Tierney reverts back to what he is and those few vocal Sens fans stfu.
