Which I am grateful for as the Panthers play has been much improved overall the past 15 games. Going into that Rangers game they were 8-2 in their last 10. The Rangers sent them into a 3 game slump though before they rebounded against the Bruins.

Florida and Calgary are interesting this year because they both should be better, but that trade seems to have made both teams slightly worse. Makes me think it might just be a chemistry thing that they are figuring out still.

It's easy for me to say this now, but I had this feeling the moment the trade was made. It never made any sense to me.

Canes are better than Boston in my opinion. It is a great time to be living in the RTP area and having that caliber of hockey on display almost nightly. The funny thing is I have a friend that I take to 1-2 games a year and they still have not seen the Canes win somehow :confused

The only game I've been to so far this season was Caps-Yotes in DC

Which is fine, it's not like the Sharks are worth going to go see *holds nose*

Karlsson is finally healthy and doing what they brought him to SJ to do and they suck so bad :lol

Considering Calgary lost Gaudreau and Florida hired Maurice, why would you think that?

Is there much trade chatter around him out there?

Because I felt that Johnny Hockey was a little overrated and that picking up Weegar was a better fit for the Flames. Jonathan Huberdeau for Tkachuk canceled out the loss of either for both teams (or that was the thinking at the time). Florida with the spark from Tkachuk has the talent to be much better than they currently are.

Also, it wasn't like my take was really crazy, most of the NHL analysts felt both teams may have found a way to get better and should be good this year. It didn't wortout that way.

Some. Less than you would think.

I think his contract is so much to absorb that it makes him hard to move.

Ovechkin's tiny son getting the assist from his dad and Crosby has to be the cutest thing that's ever happened in professional sports.

Other than that, I felt it was a good spirited game from both teams. You can definitely tell we are getting into the final stretch of the season.

Distinct kicking motion. Like kicking a soccer ball.

Man, if that wasn't a distinct kicking motion on that goal I just don't know what we are doing anymore with that rule. You are not really going to get much more of a kicking motion than that on skates.

I am actually being serious that if we are going to allow that goal last night to be okay, I am totally in favor of just allowing kicking goals to count. It will improve scoring and take away the annoyance of having to figure out what the NHL means by "distinct kicking motion" on any given play/day.

Never understood why you couldn't kick a puck in. Stupid rule.

Also, btw, any chance I can convince you to put some context when you drop links. I cannot open twitter on my work computer which is 100% of the time I am on ants :lol

Rangers would be the 2nd best team in the WC as of today, solely based on points, but still 3rd in their division.

I purchased a parking pass for the Canes stadium series game.

Price to get in the stadium is $300+ so I’m hoping to tailgate and pick up a cheap ticket like 5 minutes into the first period lol

Rangers get Tarasenko.

https://www.blueshirtbanter.com/2023...st-louis-blues

Quote:

Word emerged early Thursday afternoon that a deal sending Tarasenko from St. Louis to the Rangers was imminent, and after a lot of waiting and Twitter refreshing the deal was confirmed. Niko Mikkola is also heading to the Rangers, and he will most likely be the team’s new third-pair LHD.

To acquire these players the Rangers parted with a conditional 2023 first-round pick, Sammy Blais (acquired in the Pavel Buchnevich trade) a conditional 2024 fourth-round pick in the 2024 draft, and defensive prospect Hunter Skinner.
