OT: Around the NHL: Go Avs...

[bathroomSTAAL]

I can’t listen to Edzo man.

I muted it after he spent the first 5 minutes of the game obsessing about people shooting glove side. Like there's only 2 sides dude, they gotta shoot somewhere.

I can't really explain my Oilers hate. I just feel like they don't deserve McDavid/Drai because they've been so awful at building something around them. Even now the roster is still pretty trash, just the top guys have gone supernova. I mean dinosaur Duncan Keith and Cody Ceci getting big minutes?

Also f*** Evander Kane.

The lesson is not to take max salary if you want to compete for a cup, unless you think you can overcome the roster deficiencies you helped create by taking the max salary.

I can’t listen to Edzo man.

I like him as a person, but I've never considered him a good broadcaster. He repeats himself ad nauseum.

Hyman's 9th goal...not too shabby

This series is looking legit

 

[canadianguy77]

Lol.

 

[Al Smith]

I can’t listen to Edzo man.

He's kind of like your friend's really annoying aunt who does her best to ruin everyone else's fun at an otherwise rockin' party.

 

[66-30-33]

That's offside sadly.

 

[Al Smith]

Offside. Too bad.

Edit: I stand corrected.

 

[AuroraBorealis]

WHAT?!!?!?!

Wow

 

[66-30-33]

What? that was onside? LMAO!

 

[K Fleur]

Wow I gotta get my eyes checked then.

 

[bathroomSTAAL]

It should be like soccer offside where it wouldn't have mattered anyway cause he's not involved in the play

 

[Coastal Kev]

This reminds me of 80's/90's hockey.............GREAT FUN

 

[AuroraBorealis]

Delayed touch - All planned by big brain Makar, naturally

 

[canadianguy77]

Huh. I’ve seen one where the other team brings it back in but I don’t think I’ve ever seen that. If Makar did that on purpose, he’s got a goddam quantum cpu in his brain.

 

[EVGENIMERLIN]

Offsides makes little sense in the NHL playoffs

Rose colored glasses. Guys back then were slow as shit compared to now. The only thing resembling 80s hockey is the shitty goaltending.

Eh......they were fast for the time. Late 80's Calgary v Edmonton was the craziest hockey I have ever watched.

I take it based on your theory that Mario would be a run of the mill player in todays game???

They didn't work out as much back then, that's all.

And the game was better at a slower pace, rather than the frantic pin ball of today.

 

[Big Friggin Dummy]

Reminder that Lou "Massively f***ing overrated as a GM" Lamoriello traded Devin Toews for two late 2nd rounders.

Anybody without that dude's inexplicable plot armor would've been absolutely shredded for that move.

Mario would still be the best if he played today. Better equipment and the size and natural talent and all that. But I remember 80/90s hockey too. It wasn’t nearly as fast as todays game is all.

 

[bathroomSTAAL]

We want 10

 

[canadianguy77]

Yeah. This is going to be a short series if Colorados goaltending is at least mediocre.

 

[CascadiaPenguin]

Yeah. This is going to be a short series if Colorados goaltending is at least mediocre.

I've given up trying to predict any of this. That doesn't make it less fun, though. Well, except for the Rags/Canes series.

 

[bathroomSTAAL]

Nice rebound Kuemper

 

[canadianguy77]

What is this goaltending? It’s round 3 boys.

 

[Al Smith]

Whoever said shitty goaltending nailed it. That was Domingue quality by Kuemper.
