GDT: Around the League 2019-20 v26

[BlackDogg]

Dallas 1-0

 

[Tobias Kahun]

I’d say the chances are between 0 and .000000000000001% he comes here.

So you’re saying there’s a chance?

 

[Frank the Tank]

Maybe this is why I can't take basketball seriously

Meh. Watching the Last Dance a few months back revealed in detail how Micheal Jordan had the same obsession of turning minor slights into motivation to beat everyone he faced. Healthy or not, it often comes with the territory of being an all-time great. My PhD adviser, who has won every major award except the Nobel Prize, had a similar (unhealthy) obsession with winning every competition he entered.

 

[bellagiobob]

Works best if they don't retire in Canada. And CRA withholds 50% of the RCA in trust, until distributions are made, so you can't invest that half till it is out of the trust.

 

[5 Mins 4 Ftg]

So you’re saying there’s a chance?

YES

 

[5 Mins 4 Ftg]

Why don’t the Oilers ever find players like Kiviranta?

 

[North]

That was pretty shitty on Maroon’s part.

 

[FanOfSadTeam]

I swear the Dallas Dmen score 90% of all their goals.

If they aren't scoring they're making it easier for their forwards to score. The polar opposite of the Oilers blue line.

He should have been given a 10 min misconduct or 2 unsportsmanlike.

 

[North]

I believe he got a 10 but he should have got both.

Hey! Our d makes it easier for forwards to score. It’s just the other team’s forwards doing the scoring.

 

[5 Mins 4 Ftg]

Khudobin looks like an old beer league goalie, he’s just there for the free ice.

 

[FanOfSadTeam]

If they aren't scoring they're making it easier for their forwards to score. The polar opposite of the Oilers blue line.

Yeah but can they ice the puck like ours? Didn't think so

 

[Oilhawks]

Well, that's a shame. I thought Tampa was going to sweep?

 

[Drivesaitl]

So much for Tampa "salivating" at the prospect of facing Dallas.

lets be clear here too. That was the worst game Dallas has played all playoffs. After Dallas got the lead they completely backed up and Bowness will have some words with them about that. Dallas was in complete control of this game up 2-1 and then let Tampa turn the flow. Dallas was guilty of a lot of mistakes the last half and not getting puck out. Also Tyler Seguin its one thing if you are not scoring but move your f***ing ass and make some kind of contribution. Bowness gave him a tongue lashing on the bench. For good reason. My lord how can you not be into it during a SC final.

But Dallas was actually bad in this game. They still won. Nobody on the Stars had a good game except Khudobin. Dallas is going to be miles better than this. Will Tampa be?

 

[Coffey]

We are on the Stars wagon despite the 90s, right?

 

[Drivesaitl]

We are on the Stars wagon despite the 90s, right?

Everybody hates Tampa. That trumps everything except ABC. If Tampa was playing Calgary I want them winning again...

 

[5 Mins 4 Ftg]

We are on the Stars wagon despite the 90s, right?

I’m on the don’t really GAF wagon and on the Fire Kelly and Cassie Wagon.

 

[KeithIsActuallyBad]

We are on the Stars wagon despite the 90s, right?

Nah, Dallas winning is pretty much the worst case scenario for the Oilers. We're nothing like them.

 

[Drivesaitl]

Its not really the issue. Its the lack of respect of anybody else, or even the perception that anybody else could be first voted. I mean he says he's pissed off about that 6 times in the clip, but somehow doesn't realize how this is taking away from whoever was getting the first votes. That grace is nonexistent is more the issue. Plus this isn't about winning, its about getting needing constant regard and crying the moment he doesn't get it.

Lebron only succeeded in looking like a dick again. Seems good at that.

 

[Hynh]

Nah, Dallas winning is pretty much the worst case scenario for the Oilers. We're nothing like them.

That's exactly why it's better for Dallas to win. Let other teams chase that model, as long as the Oilers have McDavid an Draisaitl that's not who they'll be

 

[KeithIsActuallyBad]

That's exactly why it's better for Dallas to win. Let other teams chase that model, as long as the Oilers have McDavid an Draisaitl that's not who they'll be

And why exactly would the Oilers not chase that model?

 

[tardigrade81]

You spelled Dallas backwards and incorrectly

Yup I was way off

I’ve been off lately. So for the sake of my colts

Vikings will win tomorrow 100-0
