xzzy posted:This sport is also unsustainable because of the whole climate catastrophe but dammit it's the only one I enjoy watching. I love high speed games where every goal is a major event. I mean I over post about it here on a near daily basis. I love hockey so much, but it's super dumb. It spits in my face every single day but I just can't get enough of it. It's a wonderful, stupid thing which hates me personally.

How will McDavid and Draisaitl cope with not playing as many games against Ottawa Toronto and Montreal and instead have to play the Kings, Ducks and Sharks. Wow that's gonna be fuckin brutal.

Well one of those teams might actually try and hit him once in a while rather than just state glassy eyed at him as he cuts inside on the defence for the thirtieth time.

I genuinely can't tell if this comment is supposed to be more about Matthews, Marner, or Draisaitl.

McDavid elbows now and everyone is scared. Hand Knit posted:I genuinely can't tell if this comment is supposed to be more about Matthews, Marner, or Draisaitl. Ya its such a weird "quote" that without context its basically written by that reporter to just piss off everyone.

Can confirm Matheson is just as terrible as ever, but he hasn't looked as egregiously bad since other dmen have gotten healthy and pushed him away from top opposition lines. Can't expect someone who gets paid to follow and pontificate about hockey all day to notice such a subtle thing though.

Matheson getting hurt is a non-event because he's of about the same quality as whatever random minor leaguer might replace him.

Shinjobi posted:In hindsight, it's goddamn hilarious the Stars convinced themselves they had a real shot at the playoffs after getting 4 straight games against the Red Wings Cats gonna help them tonight, Knight is starting keeper and Deroisers (who hasn't played in the NHL before) is backup. No Verhaeghe or Hornqvist still, Sam Bennett on day to day. So it's definitely not our top team out on the ice tonight for sure.

Matheson’s been alright on offense but I still can’t stand his defense. Bring back POJo and boom problem solved. I still can’t believe they traded Hornqvist for him and that contract.

https://twitter.com/ThomasDrance/status/1389272622681137154 that's a beautiful bottom six, in the sense that it costs a total of $4m and provides a ton of roster and cap flexibility that a rebuilding team can weaponize. If only, you know, they didn't also have a 30m taxi squad.

Hey anyone here a huge fan of the King's purple and gold and luc Robitaille? I found one of those McFarland figurines in a box and the thing goes for like 50-150 on ebay. I can't be assed to sell it and was going to put it on my desk until I looked it up. I'll probably still put it on my desk, but if someone here really wants it and will put up for shipping it's yours to a better home.

Charlie posted:The players certainly aren’t ignorant to the situation, of course. They know this season was a massive disappointment and an outright organizational failure, especially accounting for the sky-high expectations that preceded it. Unsurprisingly, it was the typically blunt Shayne Gostisbehere who cut right to the heart of the matter last week.
