Can't believe how well the Flyers are doing in OT/SO so weird

Re: The NHL Thread
 

Can't believe how crappy the Bruins are doing in OT/SO's this year.

Even crappier loss.

Re: The NHL Thread
 

Pens losing to the Ranger U23 squad.:lol

Re: The NHL Thread
 

So many times in OT they should have taken the shot but instead made an extra, unnecessary pass. It was bewildering to watch.

Re: The NHL Thread
 

awful loss up 4-0

Re: The NHL Thread
 

Avalanche IR right now:

Rantanen
Landeskog
Grubauer
Zadorov
Wilson
Francouz

That's the #1 AND #2 goalie, not to mention 2/3 of their top line. Thank goodness for good off-season acquisitions to fill out the depth, and a #3 goalie who came in and stopped 40 shots on his way to preserving the shutout in his first NHL game.

Oh, and a rookie defenseman who is point-per-game.

Re: The NHL Thread
 

Get to five goalies first before we start hearing about that. :) Even then, you'll still be three behind last year's Flyers. Crazy.

Re: The NHL Thread
 

The difference is the Avs are still WINNING games. ;)

Re: The NHL Thread
 

Bah. Doesn’t factor into my thoughts. The Flyers never win. So I don’t go that route.

Re: The NHL Thread
 

ISO: h2p. Did he 'cide after the rangers loss?

Re: The NHL Thread
 

Anyone in the fantasy league looking for centers? I have a surplus and would be willing to make a trade for goaltending or wingers.

Currently on my roster and willing to deal at least one of:

Duchene
Johansen
O’Reilly

I will continue to post, "shocked Hank is still performing and with this team" until he isn't.

Re: The NHL Thread
 

Tuukka just had the save of the year for the Bruins.

Re: The NHL Thread
 

Thoughts on this?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lawvDsHi0o0

The Avs' Calvert takes a shot to the head, is down on the ice in obvious distress (and he's a TOUGH customer already - dude's not gonna fake it), but because Vancouver had control of the puck, the refs let play continue. Eventually led to a Canucks goal. Even Elias Petersson, who was the guy who took the shot, kept trying to signal to the refs that Calvert was hurt.

Interesting article where players gave their opinion on what the league should do in situations like this.

Re: The NHL Thread
 

If the Kings play like the played last night then they will have no issues the rest of the year. But, they won't.

Re: The NHL Thread
 

I was baffled when I saw that play out. It is one of those judgement calls, as the rule states:

"In the case where it is obvious that a player has sustained a serious injury, the Referee and/or Linesman may stop the play immediately.”

I would think getting hit in the head, resulting in blood gushing out is serious, but that's just me.

Not saying Calvert did this at all, but the main issue would be players faking or making the injury seem more serious at the time in order to get a stoppage.

But :lol at MacKinnon's quote: "I can only imagine if that was LeBron James"

Scary moment at Staples just now. Thought for sure we were going to see the stretcher but luckily Crouse got up.

Re: The NHL Thread
 

Great come-from-behind win for the Bruins tonight. 2 goals in the final 90 seconds of the game to tie it up and then a goal in OT to beat the Wild, 5-4. Almost makes up for that Florida loss.

Re: The NHL Thread
 

Rangers come back from down 4-0 to stun Montreal. Addababy

Re: The NHL Thread
 

Finally seeing the Flyers live this season tomorrow against the Canucks, low key really excited to see Elias Petterson.

Wanted to bring in some Jomboy love to the NHL thread. Dude cracks me up with his MLB breakdowns and nails this hockey one

Re: The NHL Thread
 

Leafs win 2 in a row with their new coach, Sheldon Keefe. They're actually looking like a team with top 10 talent.

Re: The NHL Thread
 

Yes! let the refs use discretion! If a guy takes one off the foot, maybe leave it be. But if a guy takes one to the head and he’s LEAKING BLOOD, make the call.

Re: The NHL Thread
 

Nice 29min hat trick for pasta

Re: The NHL Thread
 

This may be a record for longest into the season I'm in first in our fantasy league :lol

Re: The NHL Thread
 

Pens comeback was pretty epic last night. Down by 3 in the third scored 5 unanswered.

Re: The NHL Thread
 

Happy Thanksgiving (#american), ya scrubs.

Re: The NHL Thread
 

Sounds like Flames coach is out.

Re: The NHL Thread
 

Yup, he resigned.

Also, Flyers whooping Detroit's ass!

Re: The NHL Thread
 

Matt Niskanen turning into the vet the Flyers desperately needed on the blueline and have lacked since Kimmo Timonen and Braydon Coburn.

Re: The NHL Thread
 

Hi everyone, hope you are all doing well. I have been dealing with medical shit and not online much at all so I wanted to say hi. I just use my subscription to watch games and highlights on my notebook when I can. It is like my only joy now, watching amazing plays. My best wishes to Pens fans for a quicker than expected Crosby return - he is the best player in the world. Also hope everyone had a safe and wonderful Thanksgiving with family and friends!

Re: The NHL Thread
 

This is just pathetic. I respect the hell out of CO but Girard, Dontsio and Kazri are just drive me insane with their style of play - which is why they keep getting moved.

Congrats Matty

Re: The NHL Thread
 

This trade worked out for both teams - Gudas has been a great additional to bottom line D pairing

Re: The NHL Thread
 

Pasta will have 35 goals before 2020 at this rate. Don't jinx it!:evil:popcorn

Re: The NHL Thread
 

Strangest "goal" in all the years I've watched hockey with Carolina "scoring" through the broken net on the side of the goalie's net against Boston that was ruled no goal.

Re: The NHL Thread
 

LOL Flyers just murdered the Leafs in the last 10 minutes

Re: The NHL Thread
 

Leafs quit after the empty net goal. Was so obvious. Glad we ran it up on them. Even Matthews said as much after the game.

Potential sexual harassment issue in Dallas with the firing of Jim Montgomery? Interesting nonetheless.

Re: The NHL Thread
 

Quite a nice save by Hart tonight.

Re: The NHL Thread
 

Hey all

How bout those Caps?

Re: The NHL Thread
 

Kadri has been so great for the Avs. Plays any role he's asked, with whoever he happens to be with (all the injuries have really prevented anyone from getting into a groove with linemates), being a leader, etc. But what I'm most impressed with his discipline. No bone-headed plays that hurt the team, no mouthing off. Just hard work. I don't know if it's team culture or Kadri just seeing an opportunity to reinvent himself or maybe a combination of both, but it's pretty cool to see him rounding out.

Re: The NHL Thread
 

It's so weird hearing fans of other teams compliment a Flyers goalie so often.

Re: The NHL Thread
 

This will change come the playoffs.

Re: The NHL Thread
 

I believe, man. Gabe the Babe will keep him in line.

Re: The NHL Thread
 

Oof, the goalie with the OHL Niagara IceDogs took a real nasty cut on his leg tonight. Huge pool of blood, most I’ve seen in a game, and was stretchered off. Scary stuff, hope he is okay.

Re: The NHL Thread
 

That looked nasty!

Btw... the ice dogs have good looking sweaters.

Also great win last night without Sid or Geno. Jarry on fire lately

Re: The NHL Thread
 

Flyers winger Oskar Lindblom has a form of bone cancer. This is devastating to read.

He is likely done for the season.

Damn that game vs. Penguins tonight was fun.

Oilers November/December: https://images.app.goo.gl/JsdUE82RJBsNKa5j8

Re: The NHL Thread
 

Hall to the Coyotes for a 1st, an additional conditional pick, and 3 prospects.

My favorite part of this trade? The Avs were not involved in it. Good on Joe for staying the course.

Re: The NHL Thread
 

You don't need a good player?

Re: The NHL Thread
 

Sometimes you just wanna see it through with what you have, not mess with the team dynamics. What’s the Herb Brooks line? “I’m not looking for the best players, I’m looking for the right players.” He’s shown a lot of belief in his roster and I’d like to see where it can go. Even if it means passing on a player like Hall.

Not to mention Sakic’s built a SUSTAINABLE team stocked with prospects. What the Coyotes gave up for Hall is a helluva haul for a rental and would have gone a long way to undo what Sakic has carefully built if it were him pulling the trigger. Making a trade like that goes against his whole philosophy over the past 3-4 seasons.

US woman are playing Canada on the NHL network.

Lately we probably could win with just one woman.

Re: The NHL Thread
 

Guenztel out 4-6 months. Pretty much playing with house money the rest of the season now for the pens. Sucks because this team had potential despite the insane injury list. This one doesnt feel like something they will respond well from. The entire offense has run through Jake nearly all year.

Re: The NHL Thread
 

Good to see the classic put up 80k people in Dallas.

The Bruins cannot win in OT this year. 11 OTL's. Oy Vey. But they have at least shaken the Caps Monkey off their back, beating them 2ce this year. :monkey

:lol once Dustin is back we will start getting W’s.

Re: The NHL Thread
 

Seen him around. Just curious.

Re: The NHL Thread
 

Oh :lol I thought that may have been a joke or reference of something! I think he has/had a place in Utah. The last two preseasons the Kings have done a game there so I’m not sure his links to the area.

I didn’t know you were in Utah!
