And little(r) Briere makes it 1-0!

Watched a little!

Re: The NHL Thread (lolcaps)
 

The hot dog sandwich thing started on Reddit...so I'm guessing it was someone from there.

McDavid maroon and Draisaitl make a line that does not suck

Re: The NHL Thread (lolcaps)
 

Tyson Barrie is everything that is wrong with the NHL.

But seriously, if he's not getting you points he won't get you anything else (blocks, hits, etc). He plays on the worst team in the league, a team that has troubles scoring more than 1 goal a game. I think he's a -21 right now. If there's someone better out there for you to grab...

Re: The NHL Thread (lolcaps)
 

I'll be keeping him for now. We'll see.

So my Wings got a total of 6 points out of a possible 14 points on the 7 game road trip. They aren't done since the Atlantic blows but they sure didn't help themselves.

Flyers won? FLYERS WON!

RIP Rask

What happened to prompt this post?

Re: The NHL Thread (lolcaps)
 

took a Josi slapper to the mask.

Re: The NHL Thread (lolcaps)
 

Ah, makes sense now haha

Re: The NHL Thread (lolcaps)
 

:lol

Tim: Hey Matty, how's Barrie? I'm thinking about grabbing him for fantasy...
Matty: He sucks, seriously look elsewhere.
Tim: I think I'm gonna keep him.

Re: The NHL Thread (lolcaps)
 

What can I say? The guy's a Red Wings fan.

Re: The NHL Thread (lolcaps)
 

It's a thing of I can get someone who is doing about the same or keep him. I'm still evaluating. My D sucks, kinda like the Wings D, so it's the cliche of 6 of one or half dozen of another. Will dropping him for another make me any better or the same?

Re: The NHL Thread (lolcaps)
 

Yeah, D is tricky in fantasy. Only a handful are really going to pull their own weight points-wise, so I start to look at other contributions they can make to my stats, specifically blocks, hits, and +\-. I mean, I'm certainly not dressing Ian Cole for his PP prowess! :lol

Re: The NHL Thread (lolcaps)
 

whhhhhaaat? Lidstrom would be the best D on my team and that's with him being retired. Tells you what my D is like.

Re: The NHL Thread (lolcaps)
 

Lost a men's league game 12-1 the other night. That was cool. I scored the 1! (The team isn't in our C division. They are a B team. So we knew we were going to lose. But yikes....)

I'm also leading my team in goals. So yeah, we're horrible.

Re: The NHL Thread (lolcaps)
 

:lol i hope you celebrated the fuck outta that goal

Re: The NHL Thread (lolcaps)
 

I hope it was 12-0 when you scored

Re: The NHL Thread (lolcaps)
 

Or I hope he made it 1-0! :lol

Re: The NHL Thread (lolcaps)
 

:lol I think I turned around and fist bumped like one teammate and went back to the face-off circle.

I believe it made the game 11-1 at the time. They dicked scored for no reason with like 10 seconds left.

Re: The NHL Thread (lolcaps)
 

Heartbroken at the McLeod trade. First of a few?

And Kev, sorry man. Hopefully you slashed some ankles.

Re: The NHL Thread (lolcaps)
 

Forgive me if you have posted about this in the past and I missed it...but...what happened in Colorado?

I remember a few years ago they seemed to be a young(er) team on the rise. It looked like they were building to be a legit contender soon. Next thing I know they don't even resemble an NHL team. So what went wrong there?

Re: The NHL Thread (lolcaps)
 

he said it was a men's league not a #garageleague

Re: The NHL Thread (lolcaps)
 

I have talked about it in bits and pieces, but enough people have asked that it probably deserves a more thorough response. I'm on vacation right now, but will type something up when I get back.

In short: they failed at promoting a winning culture.
You can make any league a #garageleague if you put your mind to it.

Re: The NHL Thread (lolcaps)
 

Tim, tell me more about your D please.

Re: The NHL Thread (lolcaps)
 

What position do you play, Kev?

I just joined my 3rd league down here. #Ihaveaproblem

It's at a hockey rink in the middle of a mall in Arlington. So people walk out of a Nordstrom and possibly get hit in the face with a rogue puck. Here's a picture: https://res-4.cloudinary.com/simplev...N9824--020.jpg :lol

Re: The NHL Thread (lolcaps)
 

Gigitty!

Re: The NHL Thread (lolcaps)
 

and then the #GarageLeague takes your mind from you

vicious cycle

:lol

I thought you weren't a fan but we can have this conversation.
