This made me literally LOL. Amazing.

Re: The NHL Thread
 

Took a look at the bracket leader board.

How do I check this?

Re: The NHL Thread
 

Price just put on a show.

Re: The NHL Thread
 

Price should win the Hart hands down.

Re: The NHL Thread
 

Strange thing, Zach Boychuck is now following me on Twitter and it's a verfied account. It's not like I follow him. Just thought it was weird.

Re: The NHL Thread
 

tim, you just bring such a level of hockey analysis that even NHL players follow you. (Granted, can we even consider Hurricanes players as NHL-level players?)

Re: The NHL Thread
 

Well considering he's played some games for the Checkers the last few years I'd agree with you. Was just weird.

Re: The NHL Thread
 

so was that T.J. Bro-shie's last game as a Blue?

Re: The NHL Thread
 

Wings could use a winger if Franzen is done. Won't be able to afford him though, even if Howie is traded. Wings will be in for an interesting off-season.

Re: The NHL Thread
 

Can you imagine how fucked the Caps would be without Forsbe...oh wait. :BANG

Re: The NHL Thread
 

Martin Erat baby! I remember people being "wtf?" when that happened. This isn't one of those times where a prospect is a big question mark and just happens to blossom in a new system. Everyone assumed Forsberg would be good.

Re: The NHL Thread
 

Who knows...St Louis is so awful in the playoffs. Something needs to change. I enjoy their failure but I assume Hitch is fired.

Re: The NHL Thread
 

Is it 7pm yet? Just want this game to get here. Not sure what is gonna happen, but just want it to get started.

Re: The NHL Thread
 

Doubtful. I think that step one is to get rid of the goalie tandem and let one of those guys have the net, or get rid of them both for someone else. It's not "a good problem to have", it's just a problem. You need a starter, not two starters. Elliot is going to be gone, I'd think. Let Jake Allen have the net.

I think Backes is gone as well. Just like blaming your coach is the easy fix now adays in sports, so is your captain.

So you change the goalie situation, move Backes, and fire Hitch (hire Bylsma?), and maybe that's enough change to get people to buy in next year. Slap the C on Pietrangelo.

Oshie could bring in a good return as well, I'm sure, but do they have anything to replace him? Guess it depends on what they get for Backes.

Re: The NHL Thread
 

They both stunk (Backes and Oshie) in the first round so the argument can be made for both. Allen is your future so stick with him but of course get a veteran to back him up. Hitch is gone for sure though. That's your usual fall guy.

Re: The NHL Thread
 

Broshie would look awesome in orange.

Re: The NHL Thread
 

Don't Flyers and their fans think all good players would look good in orange?

Also:

That's the market they should be going to. But I bet we get both them (if they get an arena) and Vegas.

Re: The NHL Thread
 

yea, hipsters pretend to love hockecy so seattle would be perfect

Re: The NHL Thread
 

Seattle is a great city

Re: The NHL Thread
 

ok....and??

Re: The NHL Thread
 

here comes h2p with another god awful opinion.

Re: The NHL Thread
 

oh, you think so?

Re: The NHL Thread
 

Depends. What's your opinion of the Pens?

Re: The NHL Thread
 

what do you mean?

Re: The NHL Thread
 

Just your opinion of how they are.

FYI, just being a pain in the ass for fun.

Re: The NHL Thread
 

Oshie and Backes suck. so does all of STL

Re: The NHL Thread
 

Jason Botchford
"burrows: fractured and dislocated rib cartilage"

Ouch.

Re: The NHL Thread
 

:lol

i wasn't even being sarcastic. seriously, hipsters love to pretend to love hockey, so seattle wouldn't be a terrible city for a team. maybe a nice rivalry with vancouver

but that's about it. it'll never have a huge stronghold. they'll just be another seattle sounders...fans show up and are loud but know nothing about the sport itself

Re: The NHL Thread
 

kinda like ___ fans?
