Around The NHL: Part VIII - Tampa/NYR = 0 Playoff Wins

Total letdowns by the Flames and Jets in playoffs.

 

[Paulie Walnutz]

Dougie Hamilton should be benched for that terrible play. No wonder he’s on his 3rd team.

Total letdowns by the Flames and Jets in playoffs.

No kidding. Those two and Tampa Bay.

Having both the blues and Dallas win today is just a sign that things are going in the right direction! Wow. I thought last years draft capital was decent this years will blow it away especially if Zucc and company come thru

 

[Chaels Arms]

What Hamilton just did is one of the weakest moments I've ever seen in the NHL playoffs. He would not see the ice again this series if I were coaching the Canes.

 

[SA16]

I wouldn't exactly call the Jets a let down in the playoffs. The Blues are a better team and the Jets have not been very good for a while. Most people expected the Blues to win this series.

 

[Brooklyn Rangers Fan]

I'd love their 31st overall but if them going out without firing a single bullet is priceless.

Eh, I take a lot more comfort in the fact that their loss now actually may be a factor in bumping the Jets pick to the best possible position.

From the Jet’s board:

 

[BrianLeetch2]

whats the highest the Jets pick can be?

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

whats the highest the Jets pick can be?

18.

Will most likely land at 19 or 20.

Does anyone ever believe that NYR farm team BS is due to a level of compete? Our management QUESTIONED leadership... Hank is a no go... we know he’s a stud badass leader.

But they traded Cally and Miller and G and McD

And Tampa flames out. What a shock? Or maybe not

 

[JT Kreider]

whats the highest the Jets pick can be?

20th? Yeah?

 

[Priorae]

That's awesome. After we got #2 I pretty much said I think anything they get would be a bonus.

 

[ElLeetch]

and they added Laine after that.

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

That's awesome. After we got #2 I pretty much said I think anything they get would be a bonus.

For sure.

We may still be adding another 1st round pick for this year (unlikely) on top of that which will at the very least, be a mid 2nd.

We're looking alright.

 

[Edge]

Well we now can say that the Jets pick will be no lower than 22. So we’ve set the floor. Here’s hoping Vegas and Dallas can finish the job and we’ll gain another two slots.

 

[SA16]

For sure.

The good thing is at this point it's not that unlikely. We've probably got something like a 30% chance to get a 1st from Dallas now.

 

[HatTrick Swayze]

18-22 pick plus Lemieux for Hayes is not too shabby at all

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

18-22 pick plus Lemieux for Hayes is not too shabby at all

That trade may be a bigger winner than the Nash trade.

 

[Fugazy]

18-22 pick plus Lemieux for Hayes is not too shabby at all

Definitely a successful trade. Might turn out better than the Zuccarello trade.

We're looking alright.

Why is it unlikely? If Dallas can win their series I would give them a 40 percent chance of beating the Blues.

 

[will1066]

18-22 pick plus Lemieux for Hayes is not too shabby at all

And maybe get Hayes back

With Dallas halfway to another 1st.

 

[bl02]

Definitely a successful trade. Might turn out better than the Zuccarello trade.

If we had to predict right now it’s a better trade than the Zucc trade . But that could swing big if Zucc plays great and the stars make the wcf
