weird how not playing weber in 3 on 3 OT has worked out well and by 'weird' i mean 'really obviously'

Habs powerplay looks 10x more dangerous without Weber wasting possessions bombing long shots

Probably nothing but I don't think real people actually read a single report and I'm sure that got a lot.

How the gently caress is Tom Wilson still in the league jesus christ. That's worse than the hit that got him that 20 game suspension.

McDavid and somebody had a 2-on-0 last week and didn't score, either. You begin to suspect it's a situation NHL players don't practice and the once a year they find themselves in it they have no idea what the hell to do.

There was a gorgeous one a couple weeks ago, canes vs panthers. I know it's just Bobrovsky but the scorers did three passes as they skated up the slot and absolutely undressed him.

Quick rule question for someone more in-the-know: was it after the lockout ('04-'05) that refs stopped whistling down pucks held against the boards? I feel like I've seen board play whistled down sometimes in the decade afterwards (up until maybe '16), but I'm second-guessing that now...

You still see it very rarely, it mostly doesn't happen anymore. Now they only do it if someone's gotten knocked over onto it and there's no way they can get up and someone play the puck without it devolving into a line brawl. It's a good thing and keeps the game moving a whole lot better.

If you really want to send a message to Wilson and his kind, suspend him for the whole postseason. And tell him that his next suspension, no matter how small the infraction, will be for the entire 21-22 season.

Would never happen though. The best they’d manage is to suspend him through the whole first round. And even that’s unlikely.

Chris Simon got suspended for the remainder of the season and playoffs with a minimum of 25 games at one point. It's the only time I remember a suspension being worded like that? I think McSorley was for a full season but nobody gave him a contract

In non-Tom Wilson news, the Sabres played their sixth goalie of the season in net last night, tying a franchise record. Michael Houser won his NHL debut, making him the second Sabres goalie this season to do so. It’d be cool if they could win games like that when they still mattered :rolleyes:

Edit: Reinhart scored his 25th goal of the season, tying his single-season record except this time he did it in 52 games instead of 82. Maybe Botterill should’ve locked him up long term before so we could’ve had him at a decent rate, instead he kept doing bridge contracts and now they’re gonna have to shell out a huge contract to keep him. Great. Awesome.

I can't remember if I've expressed this opinion before, but it absolutely sucks that Connor McDavid plays for the Edmonton Oilers.

Also fear God the Canucks still have ten more games of this garbage Jesus Christ end it now.

Woke up today and saw McDavid's four points. He really has loving 91 points in 50 games.

He has 27 points in his last 12 games and his next two are against a completely defeated Canucks team. He could hit 110 by the end of the season.

The only light in all of this is the hope that he's burning himself out trying to get there and will be a bit tired for the playoffs.

He has 20 in his last 7 games! The Canucks have 6 players with more than 20 all season! (the Oilers have 6 other than McDavid with 20 all season)

I think he made a beautiful post and did a great job and he is good.
My feelings towards Thomas Wilson is that he is a good boy at heart but uh... society made him the way he is so we just have to accept it without any punishments or complaints.
