Re: The NHL Thread: featuring Gritty, the regular season mascot champ.
Half of what is wrong with Alain is the same thing that is wrong with most NHL coaches. Playing players on the wrong line. Benching players. Scratching players the wrong players.

Oh hell yeah Dallas!!!!! I think Benn might flatten subban at some point in the next few games.
Sucks TOR lost! Flames/Avs should be another great game - betting on Flames tonight though to get a bounceback game. |
Re: The NHL Thread: featuring Gritty, the regular season mascot champ.
Bruins!!!!

Re: The NHL Thread: featuring Gritty, the regular season mascot champ.
Avalanche destroyed that OT!! So awesome. Damn, will both 8 seeds advance?!

Re: The NHL Thread: featuring Gritty, the regular season mascot champ.
So seriously, now that it’s happened, Columbus has to have just pulled the biggest upset in NHL history, no? The closest thing I can think of is Montreal over Washington in 2010. Maybe there’s some from before my time that I’m not aware of. What else ya got?

Capitals better be watching what is happening.
Carolina is going to come to play and the Caps have looked pretty bad in each game. |

Mike Smith has been absolutely phenomenal and the only thing that's kept the Flames in it the past 3 games. I mean, he gave up 6 goals in Game 3, but he also faced 56 shots, so... And then I think he faced like 52 last night. He's been great. Loving the Avs D right now. There's two reasons Johnny Hockey has done nothing yet this series, and those reasons are Erik Johnson and Ian Cole. They are all over him the second he enters the zone. Seeing MacKinnon pick his pocket from behind yesterday was also very gratifying. Quote:

Brutal loss for the Leafs last night. They outplayed Boston in almost every capacity. Freddy had a pretty human game but it was really the penalties they took that did them in.
I think the Leafs are in tough against Boston in their barn. I'm real nervous about the rest of this series moving forward. |

Re: The NHL Thread: featuring Gritty, the regular season mascot champ.
Liked AV's press conference. Obviously he wears out his welcome after 4-5 years or so but he has a good track record. I see this hopefully going like Lavy did for the Flyers. Back to the playoffs and relevance and then maybe get hot and go on a run one of those years.
All depends on this big offseason though. Need a veteran D man and another goal scorer. Obviously neither fall off trees regularly but they have flexibility with cap this year and some pieces to trade. And the ability to retain some salary in a trade if necessary if it makes the team better. |
Re: The NHL Thread: featuring Gritty, the regular season mascot champ.
I don't hate the signing. Just kinda bummed they never seemed to be a serious landing spot for Q.

Happy with McLellan to the Kings. They have good success with ex San Jose coaches.

I would agree with you that they are on the same level but I think TB is worse since (unlike Chicago) they won the Presidents Trophy, have a soon to be Art Ross champ and tied the single season record for team wins. But yeah, that Preds series still stings for me man, Hawks just could never get anything going at all offensively. So - GO STARS!!!!!!!!!!! :lol |
Re: The NHL Thread: featuring Gritty, the regular season mascot champ.
Pretty shitty start for the Caps.

Really wanted Ovi to air box after scoring that goal. :lol

Re: The NHL Thread: featuring Gritty, the regular season mascot champ.
Orpik, wtf are you doing thereeeee
They need to double shift the top two D pairings. Our third D pairing is a liablility |
Re: The NHL Thread: featuring Gritty, the regular season mascot champ.
Pierre is hilarious, saying Ovi is such a complete player after he blocked a shot. Seconds before his awful defense carried him from the point all the way down to his goal line. He got stuck down there and the point was wide open for a few seconds.:lorraine
At least he knew to switch when the point wasn't covered. |
Re: The NHL Thread: featuring Gritty, the regular season mascot champ.
His goal was vintage Ovi though. I was watching sportscenter and stanford steve said he would just face guard him. Yep, every time,
|
Re: The NHL Thread: featuring Gritty, the regular season mascot champ.
Well Oshie probably broke his collarbone there, so that’s awesome.
|
Re: The NHL Thread: featuring Gritty, the regular season mascot champ.
Remember when people said said fighting shouldn't be in the game, well when the NHL won't stand up for bush league that's why they will allow Wilson to put a couple punches on Foegle's face in game 5

Re: The NHL Thread: featuring Gritty, the regular season mascot champ.
Bush league play by Foegele. Should have been a 5 minute major.

Re: The NHL Thread: featuring Gritty, the regular season mascot champ.
Wow, I had not paid much attention to the Caps series because I figured they would blow out the Canes but this is a series now, I am pretty surprised. That said the fans and people who run the arena in Carolina are every bit as annoying (probably more) then the ones in nashville and vegas. I don't get why you need applause signs so to speak and music blasting so loud the players cannot hear squat. I was so happy when Ovie scored simply because they shut the place up for a while. Also, that ice surface was for crap and that hit on Oshie deserves a game suspension, there was no need for him to do it that way - he could have just wrapped him up and pushed him into the boards. Credit Mrazek though, Caps had a few grade A chances just after that last PP ended and he kept the lead. I cannot believe I am cheering for a team that is playing my beloved old Whalers.
Oh, and those home alternate CAR jersey's are busted ugly, go with the home red next game please. |
