There are no West Coast games today.

No East Coast games tomorrow.

Yakupov with a goal and an assist. Is it too early to LOiLers?

Anybody else having an issue logging on to NHL.com for GCL? It tells me I have to create a new password, which I do, but then the submit button is faded/doesn't let me click it.

Laine makes it close.

Now for Connor to tie it up.

Completely on board for the Red Wings tank job this season. They might be the worst team in the NHL. I was pissed when they were up 2-0 and 3-1, still felt they would blow it though.

I'm probably going to watch a lot more games this season, since my goal for the team is a lot more likely to be reached, getting the top pick, as opposed to every other year, CUPPING.

Team is just completely void of young talent besides Larkin. Gonna need a few drafts to reload.
GOOOOO EVERYONE PLAYING THE WINGS!!!

Let's do this!

Perreault. It's being challenged...

Oh, they're just slowing the game down.

Tied. Jump! is the new goal song, according to the radio.

OT!

Carolina getting the goalie involved in the breakout, 3-on-3.

Scheifele!

HAHAHA

I can't believe I approve of this post but I do.

Also, that dekeyser goal was amazing.

what did I miss about the wings this season?

They lost Pavel Datsyuk

Thomas Vanek tho'

Shaw doing Shaw things. The Habs sure do like their slew footers, get rid of one, bring in another.

I think AJ hacked nut's acct.

Knew it was gonna happen....

Speaking of Quick, WTH is the word on his injury. All I'm seen is lower body, but I really didn't see much on the "slide" where I've read it happened.

Excellent!!!!

IDK what the schedulers were thinking. I can understand doing something like this 2 days before the AS break, but LOL on day 2.

BTW, that Matthews kid seems like he might just be serviceable! Loved his mom's reactions during the game.

Huge thumbs up to the sharks actually getting to hand a respectable banner

Got to see one of my favs in D. Setoguchi play at the tank again, not sure how much he's gonna be able to help the Kangz this season though. I also see Donskio having a very good season this year for my beloved chokez.

well ill be damned

I know it's plus/minus but lol at

Chara +5
Backes +5
Marchand +5
Pasta +6
Carlo +5

Rest even or in the red

That's what I call a solid team effort

Nope, just realistic about where the Kangz are at. Basically the same team as last year (-lucic) and a year older. Add in not much in the pipeline or a willingness to give them a shot. So yeah.

Brad Marchand ladies and gents.

lolCraps

Glad I drafted Nic Backstrom in my poll. He's poised for a big season now that he has a better winger playing along side him. Too bad i didnt draft Burakovsky as well

1. Rangers

til they're putting Rogie Vachon into the HOF
never heard his name come up before, and a little before my time ... he belong?
could have a few more randos getting in now that Lanny is running the show

also, RAT spotted in Buffalol:

Only thing I know about Vachon is that Jeff Marek loves him but well that doesn't say much for old players

What's RAT been up to? After the more or less glorious returns of cashy and Sugar Nut, surely he's next

Rat is around, just not posting about hockey yet

judging from that ad he took out in the paper, it seems he's still real MIFFED at MIKE & BERGY



Pernell's Smashville debut vs the Hawks
BoA rematch: there will be blood
and the Sea Weiss Cup to wrap up the night

also, Blue Jays!

i'll take it

never

oh, and today's LOL Benning moment of zen:

http://nhl.nbcsports.com/2016/10/14/...k-good-on-him/

Gustav Forsling is currently playing for the Chicago Blackhawks, including on the powerplay
Troy Stetcher is currently playing for the Utica Comets
Stetcher is also 2 years older than Forsling
(also, the Canucks have ~2 dmen that can play on the PP)

and of course, it's not an either/or proposition given that you dress 6 dmen every night

of course Benning is either too stupid to realize these things, or too much of an ******* to ever admit an obvious mistake

or both

Davey Keon named top Leaf OAT. (my very first favorite player) Sittler at #4, Salming at #8. All seems legit. Syl Apps at #2 seems apt as my brother was roommates with his grandson in the 80's. The grandson went on to win an Olympic Gold in rowing and many others in the family were elite athletes.

So you wanna be an NHL goalie in the 1950's and 60's?
