OT: Around the NHL - 'Tis the Season to Fire Coaches

[EightyOne]

Anyone watching this Tampa/Philly game? This may be the sloppiest hockey i've ever seen. By both teams.

Better than them mocking each others' 1-3-1...

 

[ColePens]

It got really crazy in the third...it was tighter in the first two from what I could see between intermissions in the Pens game

I just tuned in for the 3rd. My dad and I are like laughing. It's just pond hockey. It's crazy entertaining.

That is the essence, right? Fun and entertainment.

The fact that it is a game where you don't really care about either team doing well, makes it even better.

 

[ColePens]

Time for Colorado/LV. What are you guys watching?

Work.

But, I think that'll be a high scoring game.

The Flames crushed the Jets in the third. Byfuglien with an nice dirty slash on JG to injure him at the end of the game.

I just cannot watch the Jets play. I hate watching them play. The Wild, Blues, and Jets are teams I just end up tuning out.

 

[Turin]

Jets are one of the most entertaining teams in the league

It's funny because the Preds, coached by you know who, play an aggressive 1-3-1 from time to time. Yet you never hear the "trap" brought up when people talk about them.

They are a solid team from top to bottom. Sadly they have a few idiots on the team.

 

[BHD]

I like watching the Jets, but I don't think I could handle seeing the team take 100+ penalties every game.

 

[Turin]

There is no difference between the Oilers under different coaches. The only reason they win remains McDavid and Draisaitl collecting multiple points a game together.

 

[Gurglesons]

How has Brent Burns played 1000 games. God I’m old.

100%. All these teams blow and will never win shit.

I remember in 15-16 or 16-17 some dude was talking up the Wild so hard on the site I steal streams from. I was like, you got Bruce no matter what your regular season will look good.

 

[Gurglesons]

Anaheim just lost Gibson.

Dude is so good wish he could stay healthy.

 

[EightyOne]

Gibson and Quick, man. Both so good, both so sketchy with injuries.

 

[Turin]

100%. All these teams blow and will never win ****.

How are the Jets even in this conversation on right now what f***ing drugs are guys on

 

[Sidney the Kidney]

The Jets are one of the more exciting teams to watch ...

 

[Honour Over Glory]

I see the Jets are still one of the dirtiest teams in the league.

 

[WayneSid9987]

Just found out Brandon Pirri is still in the league after watching highlights.

This season:
AHL 28gp 17g 27a 41p
NHL 4gp 4g 1a 5p

Playin' for LV.

 

[Shrimper]

I hope he breaks 100pts again. I want a bunch of players to do that.

16 on pace to do so, including Crosby

Because they are massively overrated.

Their D is questionable, their goalie has had one good season and their forward depth is nowhere near what it was with Statsny.

I'd argue that. Even if they aren't as strong down the middle (they're OK at that position), their wingers more than make up for it.

Ehlers-Schiefele-Wheeler
Connor-Little-Laine
Perreault-Lowry-Tanev

And what isn't to say Chevy won't address it at the TDL?

I still remember when he played F for the Wild hahah

Lowry is on pace for 25 pts yet Brassard is a disappointment?

Ehlers is the exact type of player that is a ghost in the playoffs. Little is older and not a legit 2C anymore and is too small for the West. Tanev is basically a ZAR that score a little more. And chances are Perreault will be nursing an injury his production had also been dropping to the 30 point range since he no longer gets 1st PP time.

Let’s not even get into the fact their D is essentially ours with the bottom pairing and Myers in the top four. Can’t wait to see the team that blows their wad on that dude because he’s tall.

I think they get a ton of hype because they are Canadian, but I think if Calgary’s goaltending pans out you could make the argument they’re the 2nd best team behind Toronto.
