Around the League Thread | Second Half!

[PG Canuck]

Zellweger first point in first game. Ducks sure have some players starting to come up. Definitely a team of the future.

 

[Scumbag Frank]

Columbus's Dmen in this game...
Bean + Peeke don't look like NHLers
Severson looks like a complete albatross
Gudbranson looks passable but then makes a braindead play to give away a goal
Boqvist as their offensive guy not TERRIBLE but kinda laughable compared to watching Hughes

Also do not like Jenner as a trade target. Good physical attributes but very low IQ player who plays like a 4th liner. Would not mesh with Mikheyev and Kuzmenko at all imo

LOL Flames

Blues should be fat and happy for tomorrow night now

They are the last two years' Canucks. It's sad to watch.

Calgary blew the worst lead in hockey (3-1) to the Blues..and lost 4-3

the opposite really. their core is old, high priced and rotting from the inside out. no hope.

 

[Nucker101]

Lmao the flames are a mess. They got boo’d off the ice.

I look forward to hearing Friedman on 32 thoughts tell us that once again Hanifin has changed his mind from re-signing to wanting out. That roller coaster cracks me up.

“He’s close to re-signing”
“He wants out”
“Now they’re talking contract again”

True...it felt more hopeless than it really was here. Over there it is as hopeless as it seems.

Good. Let the Blues be fat and happy tomorrow.

 

[Pastor Of Muppetz]

While the Flames did lose, they are only 4 points out of a wild card spot..They’re in a pack of around 6-7 teams all gunning for the last Wildcard spot.

Stuck in no man’s land with an old core and not much high end young talent in the organization.

You love to see it

The Oilers have the best forward group in the NHL. Vegas D when healthy is probably the only group that contain them...

Let them beat the shit out of each other in R1 please

 

[canuckking1]

Canucks would've ended this run tbh

 

[God]

kinda funny seeing the rangers board implode after the sharks loss. drury probably should've paid for miller at 50% retained and maybe they don't blow two 2-0 series leads in the playoffs. i haven't been following braden schneider that closely but apparently he regressed a bunch this season too.

all-in this season, baby.

On a Rangers note. Kakko after having a pretty good season last year. Is having an awful season. I wonder if they look to trade him as he is a rfa next year might be a good buy low candidate.

Ethan Bear will be healthy scratch against Minnesota Wild: ‘He could use a little bit of a step back’

The Washington Capitals are set to play the Minnesota Wild on Tuesday night. The Capitals, coming off of a poor performance in…

Bear getting healthy scratched. Tough to come back from major injury and missing camp and half the season. Best wishes for him going forward, but he wouldnt have been the answer for us here. It was best we didn't/couldn't bring him back.

can’t help but connect some dots here

 

[tantalum]

About time.

 

[Burke's Evil Spirit]

I wonder who the 5 players are. Hart, Dube and Formenton seem like obvious guess. I also think it's curious Max Comtois never got an NHL deal after going unqualified by Anaheim.

The Reaves interview...

What a gong show in Toronto lol

 

[JT Milker]

Ya the indefinite leaves are definitely connected to the sexual assault charges. For some reason I wasn’t aware that Carter Hart was involved. Gross.

 

[Jyrki]

If it's a matter of "who was in the room", I wonder if they'll try to set up a fall guy or snitch on each other. They thought they got away with it til the Hockey Canada hush money scandal.

Ya the indefinite leaves are definitely connected to the sexual assault charges. For some reason I wasn’t aware that Carter Hart was involved. Gross.

Both Hart and Dube previously released statements saying they weren’t involved and neither were in the alleged photo taken at the hotel the night of. So it comes as a surprise to most in the public.
