https://twitter.com/DhaliwalSports/status/1297561965603119105 Toffoli and Myers still out. Toffoli possibly aiming for maybe a game 3 return, Myers still probably 'a week away'. Motte continues to carry the Tyler flame alone.

I totally thought this was going to be about weird noon weekday starts. Nope. Toronto is mad that West coast teams aren't playing at a convenient time for them.

VGK/VAN looked really fun, as long as you're not a Vancouver fan. I fear that the only hope of exciting games in the East are, god help us, the Flyers.

I think the Canucks can triumph over the golden knights. Flyers and tampa wont make it. Colorado will beat the stars.

I fully expect Markstrom and their power play to steal a game each, but I think Vegas is just too big and physical for them if they stay out of the box.

IRC_man posted:
Well their starter is dead and Johnson probably out a couple games. But, yeah, probably. Stars don't have the defence they think they have a bishop is probably done for the playoffs. They're gonna have to run and gun and hope to replicate the results from game 1. Problem is Colorado seems well built to play that style and can out gun the stars. Might be bordering on fan fic territory but two teams with plenty of offensive weapons on forward and defence, suspect D beyond the top pairing/pairings, and backup goalies all the way. Should be a fun series!

Anyone who saw even fifteen seconds of the first game immediately recognized how hopelessly outclassed the Canucks are. This is going to be a short series and the Knights should likely waltz to the Cup finals from here.

I'd love to see Stephen Johns back in the lineup but I'm pretty sure he's as done as Bishop is. I just can't feel confident about this series until the Avalanche are eliminated. We can hang with him, but even down those players I still think the Avs scare the poo poo out of me.

Because the NHL hates you. Actually I'm also curious. Has any rational been given for the only two games consistently being put into the late slot? Why the gently caress can't they just have a 6pm eastern start then a 7pm western start. Are all the cup finals games going to start at 11pm eastern?

blue squares posted:What I want to know is why are these games scheduled so drat late? in the Van/VGK series' case, it's because Canadian TV wants a national game with the lone Canadian team left, plus they're both in PST so it works for them also the NHL has a one-network deal in the US, so if they'd split the games onto say USA Network and NBCSN they'd effectively kill their own ratings, since hockey doesn't have the THIS LEAGUE monoculture effect/ESPN rub the NBA has (who can get away with putting two games on at once, one on TNT and the other on The Worldwide Leader) Troy Queef fucked around with this message at 17:05 on Aug 24, 2020 |

Charlie had a good distinction on what kind of a slog the Isles present compared to what Montreal didCharlie O'Connor posted:[Montreal] deployed an aggressive forecheck in the neutral zone. They controlled the shot-attempts battle, an example of the “best defense is a good offense” truism. They took the teeth out of Philadelphia’s offensive zone forecheck with clean breakouts, often aided by Carey Price, who (especially early in the series) was very successful in retrieving dump-in attempts and getting the puck to his teammates. Their defense in Round 1 was absolutely of the active variety.

Cocaine Bear posted:Because the NHL hates you. I know you're joking but Cup Final games always start at 8 PM ET unless one of the arenas has other big events that affect scheduling. I guess this time, for once, the league and NBC get to schedule games at the exact times they want since there's nothing else going on in the buildings. This is the result.
