Man that was horrible timing on the goalie pull by Philly.

 

[ottawa]

Put 50k on Arizona-Seattle going to OT

What's sad about Ottawa is that they said they are done with rebuilding.

Yet they have 1 top 4dman and 2 top6 players.

even our ahl team is better lol

They went the Sabres way, a 5 year pre-rebuild followed by the actual 5 year rebuild and 2-3 years of post-rebuild. By 2035 they'll be good to go, they're in good hands.

The Flyers and Sens suck so much it’s unreal

Yup too many teams around us who can tank with impunity. It's kind of sad really.

 

[WeThreeKings]

really have to hope Batherson & Pinto get back soon.. and Sanderson is eliminated and signed as soon as possible.

Even then.. the Ottawa rebuild has been brutal. But look out, Tyler Boucher is coming.

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Well, at least New Jersey won.

Ottawa is really tanking hard now. At one point they were like 9 points up on us, and had 4 games in hand. Now, they're only 5 points up and games are even. That's a crazy swing.

We did get worse at the TD line too, but I'm not sure that much worse, especially with Allen back and potentially Price.

I really can't see us beating Florida Thursday, but Toronto with the shit goaltending they're getting and New Jersey ....

Yeah like Buffalo who had 17 points on us and fell back to as low as seven. They've picked up one point since but that too is a scary swing when you're hoping for a lottery pick.

We need to get back to that .350 to low .300 hockey we were playing under Ducharme.

We were like .235 under Ducharme.

We were like .235 under Ducharme.

Even better.

Cmoooon OT in the desert please baby

 

[JustAHabFan]

Cmoooon OT in the desert please baby

If game has to end in regulation, i am hoping for a Kraken win. They have been terrible lately.

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Damn Ritchie has scored for Arizona AGAIN!

Maybe it's Toronto.

 

[MarkovsKnee]

They're 3-5-2 last 10. That means they've been better than Ottawa, Chicago, Detroit and Anaheim.

Remember Ottawa added Hamonic which should really swing some games in their favour

I believe Sanderson is hurt though. Might be done for the year. But Sens still hope to sign him, as they should.

 

[Hannibal]

Scared of philly and ottawa’s tank. They suck

I am actually very surprised by how bad NJD has been. They have very good players, but they seem to have a hard time to play as a team :s

PHI is also a surprise, Idon t get how they are so bad this year. Even Couturier and Ellis were bad before being injured…

OTT is less of a surprise because every knew that their D core sucked so much that if Offense did not light it up on a nightly basis they were screwed…

NJD is hampered by a shallow defense and weak goaltending. They score enough.

 

[WeThreeKings]

Devils & Sabres both tied in their games.

I suspect both will blow it because they both suck.

Was surprised to see that Jesper Bratt hit 60 points for them. Hasn't been much of that going on in Jersey for the last ~decade.
