Bobby Orr-esque.

It was an enjoyable game to watch. Blue Jackets seemed quite disinterested considering what was at stake today for them.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

Season far from over but that's why the franchise is what it is. How do you not get up for this game? Now if Detroit wins tonight they are up 3 on you going into the game in Columbus on Tuesday. You can't let these kind of games get away.

I am now also a Devils fan tonight because another Leafs loss and the a Wings win moves them into the top wild card spot.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

And it's 3-0 Devils. Yeah baby.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

BJ's falling apart at the wrong time.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

Well every point matters. Wings now in the top wild card spot cause the Leafs are beyond imploding. Hoping it's Wings and Jackets for those final two playoff spots.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

I'm hoping it's not

All of a sudden the Caps are only one point with a game at hand on the Leafs...

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

:( CBJ :(

just ran out of gas.
I don't want to make excuses for them but I do feel the NHL scheduling was wildly unfair.

in the past two weeks CBJ has had to play back-to-backs against three different clubs who were off the night before.

Hell CBJ played @Montreal Thursday and then played a rangers team Friday that was off since Tuesday.

against they islanders yesterday was their 3rd game in 4 days and the isles hand't played since Tuesday. How do you get 5 days off at this time of year???

Going into the final strecht CBJ had 5 back to backs and the Rags had 1. I just don't get how that happens.

Ultimately they still suck though, losing to the canes and isles in the same week.
this franchise is dead.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

Yeah you gotta win those games. I remember looking at the schedules and thinking the Jackets had it easier. Huge game tomorrow.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

yeah it is a big game but CBJ looks like they're finished.
the NYR game was the last nail in the coffin.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

Don't get down yet. A week ago I thought it was done after the Wings lost to the Hawks. Had the Leafs, Pens, and then Wild back to back. All playoff teams plus they had to go to a shootout to beat the Oilers a few days before. Things can change in a hurry. Look at the Lightning too. We were saying how bad they were playing and then they win 5 in a row.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

true. all good points.
don't give me false hope though.
im still going to the game tomorrow, last game of the season i have tickets for. pay my respects, ill look back on this as a fun year of hockey either way.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

i did pick up a jenner sweater at the game friday, the alternate jersey with the cannon.

its 0-2 so far :lol maybe it's cursed

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

I'm thinking getting a Nyquist jersey the way he's been going. 23 goals in I think 46 games. Leads the league in goals since January 20th.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

This place is dead today. Nyquist named 1st start for last week. Big surprise there. Also Rutherford stepping down as GM after the year and Ron Francis will be your new GM.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

this place feeds of the jackets.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

no wonder it's dead

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

that was the point, bud.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

was it???

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

Claude Giroux had better be named a HArt finalist when the end of the year comes, he has been on fire since his slow start. The award is Crosby's however. That douche

Go read the #AskNeal campaign on twitter. Hilarious.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

So you Flyers fans excited to see Carter and Richards together again?

"James Neal is everything that's wrong with the NHL"

I can't say I disagree. Dude is a huge douche.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

Yup, basically.

Only change I'd make is giving 19! 19! 19! 19! 19! the Selke.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

Fine by me :thumbsup I'd be cool with any of those 3 winning it.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

Almost! And deservedly so. Was really hard leaving Dats out of the Selke running. Only reason was injury.

Well he gets the award for sickest hands every year so...
