GDT: HFBoards GDT | 2/2/19 - It's ballet day... get it Tutu

Every time I see Colorado it looks like: Give it to the Rantanen line. The rest of you, just watch. Do they even have a coach?

 

[Sam Spade]

Nah. They’re a good team. They all pull together and play hard. That’s the kind of group that deserves to make the playoffs.

Absolutely, but making the playoffs is not what's best for the franchise.

At this point I think the value of the better draft pick isn’t as high as the value of a playoff run. They’ve got a core now. They should be getting that playoff experience. Just my opinion.

Agreed.

And in this draft, I don't think there's really much difference between the 9th pick and the 16th pick anyway. You might get a similar player at 16 that you would have gotten at 9. The top 7 in the 2019 draft is where you want to be and the Canucks are too potent to finish in that range.

This Colorado team is terribad. They need a tender, a coach, 3 lines of forwards and 3 top 4 dmen

Edit: 2 and 2/3rds of forwards. We gave you one in form of a top 2 pick this year

They get one of the top two picks and they are set for the next ten years. Solidify the top six so teams don't simply have to key on Pettersson/Boeser.

I realize they won't get one of those picks now, but from the beginning I thought tank was the way to go.

 

[Hellraising Senator]

Martin Jones needs to have that. Sharks be so much better with a solid tender

If that's really how the review process works (Watching the Sharks game), then the whole review system is stupid.

What happened. I missed it

 

[SJSharksfan39]

What happened. I missed it

Arizona scored, but they had to review if the net was off it's moarings. Also, there was clear goalie interference but that wasn't what they were checking. Then DeBoar had to challenge that ruling for GI and they had to review it again. If you're going to review something, you might as well review it all initially.

Yeah that's pretty silly of a process. This is not surprising given this is NHL hockey though. Terribad officiating and league exec's. So...par for the course sadly

The interference was also mostly due to the Sharks player literally hanging onto the Coyote player which was a clear penalty. Their review system makes no sense.

 

[Hellraising Senator]

Sigh. Arizona is gonna win this game arent they...

 

[SR]

Pretty back and fourth there at the end. Good game in San Jose right now.

 

[Quid Pro Clowe]

Great goal by Burns.

 

[Hellraising Senator]

Burn with the sick dangles for the win!

My fantasy team is thankful Jones got the W

 

[spintheblackcircle]

Wookie for Norris again.

 

[AaronDellForPrez]

Brent "Pavel" Burns!

 

[SJSharksfan39]

That was a sloppy OT but a nice result.

 

[pettersson]

Toronto has now beaten Washington, Tampa and Pittsburgh in their last 6 games....


...combined with losses to Detroit, Arizona and Florida.


Life as a leafs fan is so bittersweet

Leafs on back to back as well

Penguins were also on a back-to-back (3 in 4). So were the capitals (3 in 4) Lightning just travelled home from 3 games in 4 nights. Schedule actually went in favour of leafs all 3 times. Nice win, but those 3 teams were dog tired.

 

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

Colorado fans must be "our team is f***ing garbage aside from the top line, but we'll have 2 high 1sts and potentially draft 1-2."

 

[BlueDream]

I can't believe the Hawks are actually 2 points out of a playoff spot. Kane pretty much has the Hart locked up if this team actually gets in.

Uhh, no they aren’t... and they have no chance.

i think 8th in the west will come down to nucks hawks

Lol. Good to see this board is delusional as ever.
