Around Hockey and the NHL

[gn2007]

Cant win a game 7 with 13 shots for the whole game I'm just shocked

Quinn Hughes is a great weapon but he's not a #1 Dman

Reminds me of early Karlson.

 

[gn2007]

I wonder if avs lost bc MacKinnon had no points in this game.

 

[LightningStrikes]

Damn was rooting for Vancouver, really like that team. They have a bright future. Happy for Dallas.

 

[Maelmoor]

Vegas are big favourites in West. While Dallas for sure have some nice talent on their team, they have been lucky. Had Colorado managed to get decent goaltending they would have gone through. Losing Johnson didn't help them either.

Hey folks, just wanted to say thank you for the support on the Main & Canucks Board. It did not go unnoticed that many of you lurked & “liked”. It was definitely appreciated how some of you also Posted your support in the Canucks GDT’s.

Only positive feelings & love to you all as we head into our Off Season.

I was rooting for Vancouver also. I loved their heart. Was sorry they lost.
Was rooting for the Avs also. Totally bummed about that loss.

isles are bringing it.

 

[Stormbreaker]

Flyers are close to getting ran out of the bubble.

 

[gn2007]

Flyers want to show the canucks they arent the worst game 7 team this year. Absolute dogshit by them

 

[Domino666]

Flyers fan coming in peace, I’m used to disappointment, I’m looking forward to Tampa exposing the Isles, the Flyers have been horrid the entire playoffs that actually mattered, so good luck the rest of the way ladies and gents

Remember the Anaheim Ducks?

One of the hottest topics in Russian hockey in recent seasons has been the imposition of a hard salary cap. In previous seasons, the KHL and the Russian Hockey Federation imposed a ‘soft’ cap on teams, with a progressively stricter regime in place season on season. This year sees the first season of an inflexible limit, set at 900 million rubles (just over US$12 million) per team.

Opinion is divided. Supporters believe it will lead to a more competitive league, with leading players shared more evenly among the clubs. Opponents fear that it will make it harder for the KHL to keep Russian players at home, or to attract high-quality imports from Europe and North America, potentially sparking a drain on talent that will reduce the overall level of the league and hamper team Russia’s development.

...

For some players, such as Olympic champion Nikita Nesterov, the new rules have made it difficult to find an employer: at present, the 27-year-old defenceman does not have a club for the coming season after failing to agree terms with CSKA.

A week into the KHL season and former Lightning dman Nikita Nesterov is still not signed and currently not playing. Since leaving the NHL after the 2017 season, Nesterov has been a Gagarin Cup Champion, Olympic gold medalist, KHL first team all star, and was captain of CSKA. There was some talk over the summer that he was looking to play in the NHL again.

I am so glad we got rid of DeAngelo.

 

[Felonious Python]

Not technically hockey, but a new chief can affect a tv deal.

 

[2020 Cup Champions]

I am so glad we got rid of DeAngelo.

What did he do now?

 

[Sky04]

Boston fans are absolutely losing it that Tampa is up 2-0

Yeah, kind of funny how many of them think we're a dirty team with a crybaby coach.... and then you look at the only Cup they have in the salary cap era whose claim to fame was making the final series about anything but hockey WITH CLAUDE JULIEN AS THE COACH. What world do these fans inhabit?

 

[Felonious Python]

Wake up your parents and run downstairs to the family computer, CapFriendly has turned over their rosters for the year.

[These Are The Days]

I've had 3 years to digest the look and I still think the Knights' jerseys are absolutely hideous right down to their Boba Fett logo. And no I don't think the same colored Canucks jerseys of the 90's were good either.

 

[dechire]

Trying to stay in denial about the possibility of a Bolts-Stars final is becoming more difficult every day

I wouldn't say it's hideous (there are certain teams I know), but it does feel very 'expansion team', if that makes any sense.

The white doesn't look as bad as the gray.

The Knights embrace this really gaudy cartoon of a medieval motif. How are we all not going to be making fun of this in 20 years?
