Plus the NHLPA is incompetent too, there's no good guys.

My favourite part of the last lockout was all the people that thought it was a strike.

The NHLPA rejecting the offer is a good sign that they want to force a renegotiation, not the other way around. There's gonna be another lockout because the league won't allow the players to play a season in a strike position (and possibly pull an MLBPA by killing a playoffs), but it isn't entirely about the ownership if we have a lockout sooner than later.

double post but i just watched the highlights of the pens stars game man, i really feel like this is some of crosby's best hockey in his career. really incredible to watch. with how mcdavid has been playing it wouldn't be hard to say there's a new #1 and maybe this is the homer talking, but i really think crosby is clinging onto the title

McDavid/Laine have done a good job so far this season showing that they are ready to replace Crosby/Ovechkin. The next generation is starting and we are all old farts now, remembering the good old days.

gently caress West Coast roadtrips. Habs just can't win on the west coast. But more than that, gently caress 10pm hockey.

Can't the Habs just forfeit west coast games? They're getting 0 points either way.

Nashville claimed a Reid Boucher off waivers from NJ, which is funny because they're playing each other in 2 hours. Also Teddy Purcell is on waivers.

Boucher is gonna slam dunk the funk* in Nashville *be a positive contributor on a third/fourth line

I've grown to deeply detest Trevor Linden. quote:Now, look at this year. Tonight we’ll have the youngest defence core in the National Hockey League. Our oldest defenceman will be 26-year-old [Luca] Sbisa and [Philip] Larsen. Gudbranson’s 24. [Ben] Hutton’s 23. [Troy] Stecher and [Nikita] Tryamkin are 22. That’s a new group. We’ve rebuilt that defence. Trev, that is only because Edler and Tanev (aka the top pairing you had nothing to do with acquiring or developing) are injured right now. Also our defence is god awful and we have no depth. Take away Hutton and Stecher flukely exceeding all expectations and making the NHL straight away, that's barely an AHL level back end.
