I hope they suck for the rest of the season and tank so hard they get Eichel or McDavid, who they will eventually trade because he is too good at scoring points, this is my wish for the Bruins

Chicago could have just not played the 3rd. And very nearly didn't.

I figure he's on the trading block, guy can't play in the system. He's obviously scoring too much.

They made a huge mistake gooning it up in the 3rd, that's just playing to Boston's strengths and it almost cost them the game.

darkwolf220 posted:What is Edmonton going to do with yet another talented forward? That would make 5 and they still are finishing dead last. I guess try and move Yak, but he would not have near the same trade value. Mcdavid is a little bit different than just another talented forward. What would Edmonton do with the most hyped prospect since Tavares? I wonder...

That's my favorite goal of the year. Kane sitting on the goal line, mishandling the puck twice before he gets a shot off. 6 Bruins loving frozen in their tracks with an "OHHHHH FUDDDDDGEE" expression like the kid in christmas story. I wonder what the conversation was like back at the bench. "So which one of you fuckers were supposed to be covering one of the best snipers in the game?"

Yeah the Pens always get hit hard by injuries. I think they can beat anybody too. As usual they could use top six help. Spaling is not good, and with Dupuis out long term and Bennett made of glass they probably need two top six forwards, not one.

Local sports radio bitching about how every time the Flames win the "corsi battle" they lose the game so why does everyone talk about advanced stats cause they're dumb. Ignoring the fact that maybe just maaaaaybe Josh Jooris may not always score on every 4th shot on net. Also Karri Ramo posting a .789 last night may also be a contributing factor. Oh no we're regressing to the mean.... REGRESSING TO THE MEAN. Hold me Johnny Hockey...

The video is even better. It's like watching a video game highlight where the AI doesn't know what to do and all the players just wobble around inside the net.

Cory Conacher on waivers again a free Ben Bishop

The Dirty Burger posted:Cory Conacher on waivers again Yeah, that really sucks. I mean, who would have thought that Conacher would have fallen this far off a cliff, and who would have thought Bishop would actually turn into a good goalie? At the time of the trade, it seemed pretty good. Tampa needed a goalie, and Ottawa needed somebody else to help carry the offensive load besides Spezza's line. Reminder that Conacher was in the mix for Calder for roughly half his rookie season.

I mean, who would have thought that Conacher would have fallen this far off a cliff, and who would have thought Bishop would actually turn into a good goalie? Plenty of people thought Bishop was a legitimately good goalie, while Conacher's Calder level numbers iirc came while he was being played on TB's top line. Him falling off as much as he has may be surprising, but the rest of it...

Anaheim has played 30 games, and 20 of them have been decided by one goal. None of those 20 have resulted in a regulation loss (15-0-5). They are 4-6 in games decided by more than one goal. The best team in the NHL, folks.

Im actually kind of sad to see Conacher fall as much as he did, he looked really promising, almost like another Theo. Ottawa broke him and you cant convince me otherwise.
