Around the NHL 11 - 2023/24

[LucianoBorsato]

We rag on him when he sucks and it is only against Chicago but looks like PLD had a monster game:

Corsi: 91%

xGoals: 91%

Shots: 12-0

Faceoffs: 80%

Return of playoff-Pierre? LA is gonna need it going up against the Oilers.

I'll have no problems with LA upsetting the Oilers in the first round and PLD would be key to it if he is starting to wake up now.

 

[roccerfeller]

Wow.

Didn’t see that coming

I hope LA beats the Oilers this year. They’ve had bad luck

I will be rooting for kings in that series

 

[jetsforever]

Great, LA squeaked ahead of VGK so now Vegas is on our side...
Hope Dallas handles them

 

[ps241]

I wanted to see Vegas Oilers but now Edmonton gets LA which I assume will be easier. f*** Vegas is on our bracket now but Dallas is a really good team so we’ll see I guess.

I say....

Fun fact: If our 6 game losing streak had only been a 4 game losing streak, we would have gotten the Presidents Trophy. Absolutely crazy season.

 

[jungles]

yep, and if Atlanta does get another franchise they should rightfully be given the Thrashers history and name back, I would fully support that.

They can have it now as far as I am concerned.

 

[RetroWinnipeg]

This Meruelo/Bettman press conference is falling off the rails.

 

[DeepFrickinValue]

Are you a Mormon... ?

It's 3:10 to Yuma...

4:20 to Yuma

Haven't seen it mentioned, but the Habs 4 game losing streak to end the season has dropped them down to 5th last so we now get the 37th OA pick in the 2024 draft. Depending on how the playoffs unfold, there is a good chance our traded away 1st is 29th (but hopefully 32). So Chevy might end up getting the player he targets in that range even without our 1st.

That pick not being a part of the Toffoli deal still boggles my mind. What a trade.

 

[sipowicz]

When he's on he's one of the most dominant centers in the league. I was ready to hand first half Dubois the keys to the castle last year when he was playing like that every game

When was the last time he was on? November 2022?

 

[Buffdog]

He had that series in the playoffs vs Matthews and the Leafs that one time lol. That was sort of the pinnacle of his career

That's what makes him so frustrating. You know he has it in him, but he refuses to bring it consistently

Honestly leaf’s bring out the best of opposing teams. Imagine how embarrassing it would be to lose to them in the playoffs.

Yeah, a Jets-Leafs finals is both my dream and nightmare.

 

[Channelcat]

This Boston Pizza ad is disturbing. Are they actually asking us to chear for the Leafs?

 

[GeorgeJETson]

That sounds like Bettman's worst nightmare

 

[jungles]

TSN panel almost all picking Edmonton to go all the way.

 

[WolfHouse]

TSN panel almost all picking Edmonton to go all the way.

They're Canada's best team...

 

[sipowicz]

TSN panel almost all picking Edmonton to go all the way.

Right, with zero goaltending!

 

[Gm0ney]

That sounds like Bettman's worst nightmare

Leafs in the Finals vs anybody would be a massive revenue windfall for the league. Rogers would sure be happy...and isn't that what it's all about at the end of the day?

Idk I'm hoping for a vicious 7 game series with the Knights coming out of top.

The Jets seem to struggle with both teams, but I think Dallas is better constructed and it would be sweet to finally slay the Vegas dragon

This is where I’m at - I think the Jets need to confront and kill the Vegas monkey on their back…

I really hope Jamie Benn is googling how to crosscheck someone’s spleen

That's true, I just don't know if I could handle losing to Vegas AGAIN
