I believe there's certainly more parity in the SHL (at the moment at least, as the KHL is being dominated hard by 2 teams, SKA and CSKA), and the SHL's system of promotion/demotion might make it more exciting in other ways too, but the KHL definitely has much more talent in the top end. By the way, the KHL playoffs start this Saturday, and I'm pretty hyped. Go Jokerit. Zat fucked around with this message at 16:09 on Feb 28, 2018 |

El Gallinero Gros posted:I feel like the SEL is better than the KHL on the whole, is that accurate? No, the KHL is still the 2nd best league in the world. The SEL is a step above the AHL, but still a ways off the KHL. https://twitter.com/robvollmanNHL/status/866477120360402944 NHLe isn't perfect and others have refined its methodology to show that the SEL is a bit closer to the KHL, but overall it's still very much the 3rd best league on earth.

Big 10 better than the CHL. Big 10 better than the CHL. Yeah no that's 100% inaccurate.

Using point equivalency factors to determine which league is more talented is kind of dumb, though. All it measures is expected scoring rates.

The CHL also has 20 year olds lighting up 15-16 year olds. Which, to my mind, makes the ECAC having a worse translation really stand out.

That just proves my theory that with a proper amount of practice time, the NCAA all-americans/top prospects could beat a whole bunch of AHL/foreign teams do not respond to this post

Carter Camper has an assist on all 5 Tucson goals so far, after being traded there for Future Considerations on Monday from Cleveland. Good stuff. e: Its going to get changed to 4 assists after a decision from the VP of the league. Hockles fucked around with this message at 03:29 on Mar 3, 2018 |

The WBS Pens road trip have arrived in Milwaukee for our final game of our western trip! And I'm stuck in an Urgent care with a scratched cornea. Not missing the game this afternoon, but this does kinda suck.

That Jokerit-CSKA game was something else. After 142 minutes, Jokerit wins, series is 3-2 CSKA, Game 6 will be in Helsinki. And the schedule is insane. This was the 5th game in 7 days; they only take a single day off when they travel. Next game on Saturday.

It is almost time for the top 3 SPHL teams to pick their first round playoff opponents. My hometown team is probably going to have to go up against by far the #1 seed, Peoria. Evansville the closest team to them by a bunch, and with the unbalanced schedule played them 13 times out of the 56 game season going 3-7-3 against them. Currently 6th, but if they win out over the last 4 games they might be as high as 4th, but that won't matter. ps gently caress the Jacksonville Icemen now and forever.

If I remember correctly, teams usually take around 30 players and staff to a game. Word has started to filter out in these parts, and it's beyond horrific. At least 15 dead, including the head coach, another half that seriously injured and four or five who walked away with minor injuries. It's all speculation at this point, but informed speculation coming from people who would know. This is a 'where were you when' level disaster. And for someone from Saskatchewan who has been to Humboldt many, many times, it is absolutely heart-wrenching and sickening. People knew it was bad when information phone lines, crisis centers and churches were set up to help the families. It became concretely bad when word got out that two STARS helicopters had been dispatched, at least 12 ambulances had been sent from communities in the area and that hospitals in Saskatoon had to divert people to a smaller facility because of the influx of emergency cases from the crash. It's just astonishingly bad. EDIT: Aaaand it's been confirmed by RCMP, 14 dead. acejackson42 fucked around with this message at 07:48 on Apr 7, 2018 |

Facebook post from one of the doctors who treated the crash victims:"Hassan McMasri posted:Last night can only be described as the longest, worst and most tragic night of my career. The images can’t be unseen or forgotten, the stories can’t be unheard or ignored. Meeting each family and explaining the extent of each injury was nothing short of a painful exercise of cruelty. Families waiting for hours to identify their loved ones and smiling of joy at the idea of a significant injury as long as it meant that their loved one was alive brought chills to my spine.

basically everyone I know at every level of junior hockey is stunned by this, because the bus and long rides on it are part and parcel of playing at this level. we're all united behind them and it's been great to see the support.
