Def jelling at the perfect time, and with so many young dudes gonna be a huge prob going forward. Hope Lafrenier and Kakko continue to kinda underwhelm for being top 2 picks, if they play at that level it's gonna get ridiculous.

Penny for Jeff Gorton's thoughts, tho at least he got quickly snapped up byt he Habs
 
Maybe moreso penny for David Quinn's thoughts since he's not even coaching right now, gotta be pretty envious. Doubt he'd be getting the same results though, Gallant is fantastic
 
Gallant has done quite well. That against a back drop of a fan base who didn't particularly care for him.
 
Dude you are just a ray of sunshine on this board, aren't you? :)

Totally! lol I was just so pumped for the Canes it's been a huge let down. At least with all the other teams I pull for there's always a great sense of pessimism...not so with the Canes this year (well for the first 3/4 of the season....I definitely nose dived my optimism starting then).

I just don't know who to pull for.

I've been watching, just not posting or anything. I'll change it up tonight. Sorry for the negative vibes.
 
Wow....I actually did OK today lol:

lol....WTF is up with Biz's hair?

I missed a bet or something.
 
See, this is what you guys get when I'm at my laptop during the games. Rapid-fire posting.


I'm predicting a 6-5 OT victory for the Oilers


And that was definitely boarding.
 
Mike Smith is certainly entertaining, no idea what's going to happen whenever a shot comes his way.

Pacific Division living down to its rep as worst division in hockey
 
Well my 6-5 prediction wasn't too great. Surprised there's not been any convo about the game. (FYI: I started typing this post during 2nd intermission and have been analyzing the following data, so if there's been convo since my last post I haven't seen it).


Also, I just realized when I looked up the dates for the NHL awards that Freddie WASN'T nominated for the Vezina. What a crock of bullshit.

Freddie definitely deserves the nomination over Saros...but Shesty should easily win the Vezina. Plus, how can you not get pumped when Reaves yells out SHESTY RELEASE US before each game...definitely gets me in the fighting spirit before each game when I see that clip...I can't wait for us to be RELEASED at about 245p tomorrow.
 
Yea Shesterkin definitely deserves it. I didn't realize he led in Win%, GAA, and SV%. Freddie was also Top 3 in all 3 of those. I wouldn't have been mad had Kuemper, Bobrovsky, or Vasilevski had been nominated. But the fact that it is Saros, who ranked so low, AND was just on a Wild Card team makes me so upset.

Damn....Kadri out for at least the remainder of this series with an upper body injury.

Did they say in the broadcast if it was likely a concussion, or was it a shoulder injury?

Either way a terrible penalty from Kane...dangerous, dangerous stuff. Surprised he only got a 5 min major and not a misconduct.


 
DAMMIT!!! Missed today's Stanley Cupple.

Got the division and team, but kept guessing wrong player.

It's like they forgot it was supposed to be crazy for the past 8 periods and tried to catch back up in the third.
 
A great game...feel bad for Edmonton that they couldn't at least win one game for their fans.

Poor Draisaitl was just hurt over and over and over during the game and still kept stepping back on the ice to the tune of 4 assists. Such an amazing show in a losing effort.

Would really like to see Avs/Lightning Finals....really don't want to see the Rangers take the East.
