2018-2019 Around the league thread #4

[Foppberg]

Pretty damn impressive. And their other two 1st rounders (Hedman/Vas) are home runs.

 

[Metallo]

Lots of scoreboard watching to do tonight.

 

[Raucherhusten]

Duchene is cursed.

Duchene IS the curse.

What's the earliest a team has locked up a playoff spot? Or even presidents trophy?

I'm assuming it was probably Montreal, I think they only had 8 losses one season, and there were less teams, so mathematically less need to be eliminated.

 

[Mighty Makar]

Crosby has 4 points, not even halfway through the game.

 

[forsbergavs32]

Brad Marchand is playing in his 666th career game tonight. He has 666 career penalty minutes and guess who the Bruins are playing tonight. The New Jersey Devils.

And appropriately scores the first goal of the game

 

[Colorado Avalanche]

Crosby has 4 points, not even halfway through the game.

Can you imagine, If Duchene misses the playoffs again?! Columbus went all-in and might not even make the playoffs.. Holy smokes.

Not sure but I believe Tampa Bay can tie the record tonight for fastest team to 50 wins in the regular season.

 

[Mighty Makar]

Stars up 1-0. Coyotes up 2-0.

 

[Mighty Makar]

Stars are up 2-0 now. f***

 

[Balthazar]

It's going to be very difficult to make the playoffs people. If the Yotes win tonight they'll pass us with the same number of games played.

 

[AvsFan29]

Stars are up 2-0 now. ****

St Louis has done nothing to help us.

 

[Muffin]

Minnesota will be the team to chase down anyways.

One spot for Avs/Yotes/Wild.

I don't get you man, there's two spots four team, we have to win more than them simple as that and we play Dallas twice, we have I think the easiest schedule so that's that. We still have over 50% according to sports club stats.

 

[Avsboy]

Still 17 games left. A lot can happen

 

[Balthazar]

...

 

[the_fan]

It doesn't matter what the other teams do at this point, it's up to the Avs to win their games. Yotes win they'll jump ahead of the Avs today but the Avs can jump ahead of them tomorrow if they beat the Ducks. If Avs cant beat the Ducks tomorrow, they don't really deserve to be in the playoffs

 

[SuperJoe]

Ok! It's going to be easy then!

Wow dude, why are you going to extremes, I simply stated some facts, it's a 50/50 proposition. Neither extremely difficult nor overly easy.

 

[the_fan]

For me this year I'll be ok with making or not making the playoffs. Making it will be nice but let's face it, this team isnt built to win a round yet, so it'll be another early 1st round exit. If they dont make it, they'll have a higher draft pick to go along with the Sens pick.

 

[Spleenless Wonder21]

So, I’m supposed to be...rooting for Detroit?

 

[Mighty Makar]

Blues finally score. 2-1 Dallas.

 

[Mighty Makar]

3-1 Stars. f***

 

[Metallo]

Blues are useless tonight.
