Miscellaneous NHL Discussion: Post-Trade Deadline Edition

[Curufinwe]

Any other recent mocks out there?

 

[Flyerfan4life]

I read this yesterday. Seemed like a really poor prediction for the Kraken, especially the forwards.

Seattle wants a penalty magnet ?

ummm suspicious...

 

[freakydallas13]

Seattle would take Ghost if they are smart, but I could see them going after NAK as a cheaper option.

I’ll take almost 3 Brindy’s over 1 AV thank you very much.

I’ll take almost 3 Brindy’s over 1 AV thank you very much.

It just makes you want to cry.

 

[Striiker]

Yeah, cool, but did the Canes get to raise a "First Playoff Series Win in Nearly a Decade" banner this year?

Didn't think so.

 

[Tripod]

NYR just put on 3 globetrotter passing displays in the span of 4 minutes. First one got saved, 2nd and 3rd ones ended in a goal.

Envious.

tweet be gone ?

what it said ?

 

[FlyerNutter]

Caufield looking pretty good again tonight

 

[CanadianFlyer88]

Didn't think so.

The Canes have only won two series (not counting play in last year) in the last decade.

*They are legit Cup contenders, though.

If I’m Pitt I’d be worried about playing the Isles in the first round, that team will suffocate any and all fun out of the game, but wouldn’t surprise me in the least if the Isles win handily

 

[RonHextall27]

Not sure how many of you guys are watching the Edm game but what I would give to have a talent like Mcdavid to watch for the next decade plus.

 

[Magua]

100 points. McDavid is so f***ing good. It’s hard to believe he’s not even the best player in the league!

Best stat of the night though? Wennberg getting a hat trick. Guy might be the worst goal scoring top 9 player in the league. 9 goals/82 game career average. He had 2 in 79 games a couple seasons back.

Tortorella expects quick decision on future as coach of Blue Jackets

get it done Fletch...

tortorella : AV :: Firing squadron : lethal injection

Mcdavid has 29 pts in his last 10 games. Averaging 1 point for every 7 shifts....and that includes penalty killing. Just nuts!

As a comparison, Couts has 8 and Giroux has 8 in their last 10 games....which is respectable.

But don’t tank or the Flyers could be like Edmonton. Must really suck to watch McDavid play every night.

 

[RonHextall27]

I'm a huge Giroux fan, no sleight on him, but for me it's been since Lindros that we've had a player that truly moves the needle.

How are Detroit and Buffalo looking?

The Oilers remind me of the late 90's Ducks team. Two star players racking up points and trying to carry the team, but ultimately it's not enough.

How are the Flyers looking?

The Flyers would fit right in with the Canadian division with how awful every team is defensively

So basically the same as the Flyers for the last decade?

Tanking is a proven strategy that works. Just cause there are exceptions doesn't make it a poor move?

Especially when it nets you a franchise player.

When is that Bedard kid draft eligible?
