Their next game is against Chicago.. WEDNESDAY NIGHT RIVALRY. So it could actually happen.

Well he's not wrong, if you have the puck, someone is going to hit you. Unfortunately he doesn't seem to have realized that "puck possession" refers to the team, not the individual. If your dudes are getting crushed constantly then maybe they should loving pass the puck once in a while. Tire out the other team chasing you around.

Vincent Van Goat posted:I can't remember, have they played any teams with mumpy players recently? I know they haven't played the Blues, and they played the Ducks for the opener, but I feel like there's another team that had it. This is why the game needs enforcers, as their role is diminished in an era where everyone is paranoid about concussions teams are seeking new weapons to limit the effectiveness of star players. Biological warfare was inevitable. This is what we get for taking away the punchmen!

onemillionzombies posted:Blues should probably delegate all goalie decisions to an impartial 3rd party, it would honestly be far better for them. I like this idea, hockey forums around the internet should be a good place to look for talent. That gives them a pool of thousands of people who at least think they know everything about hockey to build a team from.

Losing Crawford isn't a huge deal, both backups Chicago has are about as good. Granted he's putting up great numbers this year and injuries suck, but he's probably the most expendable player they have right now.

So is Versteeg actually good this year, or is he just getting awesome chances because of his linemates, or is it ~*chemistry*~? His play doesn't seem to have improved to my eye, but he's sure been on a tear the past few games.

I won't argue against him being "pretty good" but he doesn't seem to have any standout trait.. not blazing fast, can have issues controlling the puck.

Yes, drafting is the Oilers' biggest problem. It has nothing to do with a bunch of NHL talent playing the game like it's open skate on a weekend. Nope, absolutely nothing wrong with training and coaching.

sba posted:this, but unironically Yes, but my point is the organization is broken from top to bottom. They shouldn't fixate on just the drafting issue when there's so much else going wrong too. Start work now developing a coaching system that actually works, so by the time they resolve the drafting and start getting some decent players there's actually a competent system for the new guys to fit into.

Jordan7hm posted:I really liked Klinkhammer during his short stint in Ottawa, and I'm glad he stuck in Phoenix. I think he'll be a good addition to the Pens' bottom 6. He plays a fun aggressive style without being an idiot about it. I liked watching him in Rockford, too. Sucks he only got one game with the Blackhawks, and it was in the season after the 2010 cup so I don't think he really got a fair shot because relatively speaking the team was a mess that year. Also I like saying his name, his name loving owns.

The funny part about dumb Blackhawks fans in Nashville was there was a pair of them behind the Blackhawks penalty box last night, and whenever a Chicago player got a penalty you could see the woman taunting him. Lady, I'm not sure you know what it means to be a fan because that's certainly not how you do it.

It's highly unlikely that professional athletes are dumber as a group than the rest of humanity. Yes there's some real idiots in the NHL, but there's some really smart people out there too. Most of them are probably average folks who just happen to get paid a lot of money to play a game. The ratios probably match up pretty well with the stupidity rates in the normal world. Carcillo is a putz of a hockey player, but he is showing improvement. Instead of flinging his body at other players like a mortar attack he just cross checks everyone and runs his mouth a lot. He's even started showing some ability to produce offense which is a big surprise. I could see teammates appreciate having a guy with his energy in the locker room.
