Around the NHL: 2019-20 Part 2

[SundherDome]

The GLO line has sustained this. Oloffson-Eichel-Reinhart have sustained this before, but Oloffson/Reinhart wouldn't have been patient enough to take the few extra steps these players did before passing.

Sheary and Vesey would've lost the puck as soon as it got near them. Those two are possession killers.

Utterly amazed Kane could do what he was thoroughly incapable of doing here.

And he does it with ease, it looks instinctual.

Reinhart just gets happy feet/hands and has no concept of the play around him for the most part as on a few empty net goals he just coughs it up in glorious fashion.

That’s all kinds of bullshit.

That’s all kinds of bull****.

What is?

What is?

Your description of Reinhart's play.

I don't like what you are insinuating

Is it worth out to pick up Linus Ullmark in Fantasy Hockey?

I'd be dropping CBJ's current goalie. The guy who's filling in for Korpisalo

Yes, I can't see Hutton getting another game for awhile.

Bored to tears obsessing about the pathetically weak Sabres?

How about the BIG DOGS going at it? Matthew Tkachuk and Zack Kassian.

Tkachuk has fully taken over the role of scummiest tough guy from Scott Hartnell.

Let me get this right, you take two clear runs high at Kassian, and then you skate away and pretend like oh wow someone might not be happy.

Yet, he's slways eager to throw a quick first punch with smaller non-fighter types. Gross

He's got the Sean Penn act down

Yup. It's a weird time. I've never been one for the player's used to respect each other nonsense. It used to be a blood bath out there.

But I can't say I respect in the slightest this type of bullshit.

First, the refs would have hundred percent called that first hit if it was McDavid or Draisatl had been on the receiving end. So if we are no longer a league where instant justice is to be doled out by the players, suspend the crap out of gutless punk like Tkachuk, neither of his big hits were hockey plays, they were intent to injure plays.

Pick a lane NHL.

well then

Wasn’t he behind the bench as well this season? Helping “evaluate” things not as the actual head coach.

Hmm, this is interesting.

You hate to see it happen to a Tkachuk. But in all seriousness the refs need to wrap up Kassian, he should have never been able to break away that many times.

Yes he was.

I'd say hire Shero as President of Hockey Ops but hed probably give Botts another 3 years

The Leafs getting slapped around tonight brings a smile to my face

I love the line “Ray and I both agreed we needed to go in a new direction.”

I’m sure Ray walked into his office and said, “ Uh, we need to go in a new direction, you should can me immediately.”

I wish the Sabres had a Matthew Tkachuk.

I've heard. A lot of people would like Marchand. Or Darcy Tucker.

I don't. I'd rather have a Cam Neely type or even Wilson.

He begged to be fired into the sun
