Oh look Pens vs Caps aka NBCSN's wet dream. So glad I invested in NHL Center Ice again this year. I'm even embarrassed to say I am watching Isles v Sabres.

I was watching that game on my illegal .ir (Iran) feed but gave up. I want to watch games on my TV not computer. I pay 25 a month. That is about the same as Netflix and HBO...I want to pay the NHL, I don't want cable, I don't want to break the law. I guess that is too much to ask.

New betting strategy: Ties in the East and Central. +300 a shot

Looks like your Athletic ticked off the Coyotes den...




Classic: "The NHL and Coyotes declined interview requests" when asked to provide comments for the story.

Just move the team to Hamilton and be done with it!

Lol Yotes.
Read the piece.
Take away: The new owner does business like Trump. Everything is to be haggled and decided with lawyers involved. Nothing is a firm agreement. Wouldn't be surprised if turns out to be broke, or broke adjacent.

time for the brian burke rebuild to start in pittsburgh? lol

Gold helmets. Reminds me of GoT...remember that scene?...dragon girls brother and that aquaman fer.

a crown for a king knight

Vegas playing for the tie, same thing happened to Winnipeg vs. Ottawa.

Eichel: 2G/12games
Hall: 1G/12games
Malkin: 3G/14games
MacKinnon: 3G/12games
Lucic: 4G/15games
Stützle: 4G/14games

Huh... I would have lost that bet.

Meanwhile, Hughes has 19pts and is -14.

I’m rewatching Monday’s Jets@Oilers.

The Oilers must be practicing their entries. They seem to have a few set trick plays. My guess is in a few years they will have a huge catalogue of them. High-skill trick plays.

Twice they were using a pass off the boards, once on the right and then on the left, to cross-up the defenders and get behind them with speed.

Then they had McDavid passing before he goes behind the net, sort of with the stick close to his body, which was a play I saw earlier this year. This time he did it after pulling a puck he had lost off the boards, pretty incredible.

You can see a few times they had guys going out wide and slowing down to draw a defender over, then they pop a guy up the middle, hoping to be one-on-one in the slot, the other defender too far over and too slow to help.

They have something they’re doing where they get lots of passing room after they gain the zone, I’m sure it’s a set play where they are drawing the defence into position with timing, because they got the same look three times. The Oilers end up in an I formation, the pass coming from the goal line.

And then they get tons of partial looks for McDavid, I guess lots of marginal shots are going to pay off for him when he gets the rebounds, or just the high number of chances will translate.

When I saw that alumni game a couple of years ago, I thoyght both the Jets and Oilers were using well rehearsed plays, probably the same ones they had in the 1980s.

When will consensus be reached that THall is just a loser?

Blackhawks -136 and Panthers +134

lol +/-


but muh pdo! (rebound incoming)

i guess he's ... fine, but his best days are almost certainly gone

fun fact: he turns 30 this year

no more 1-year deals bruh...

Not sure how unusual this is for an NHLer, but...

Fun facts...
Petry 15pts 15games +13

LOL






...sips coffee

Not very.

You'd be surprised.

Yeah, I figured. Though most have the excuse of being North American.

The 88 comments are a nice touch

Limbaugh has German ancestry.
Greiss is German.

But more importantly, they both disliked Hillary.

If only the shared traits ended there

Florida looking dead. Carolina dominating.

Looking at the Cats schedule so far... 13 GP, 4 vs DET, 3 vs TBL, 2 each vs CHI, CBJ and NSH. Today's their first against either CAR or DAL. That record might be a bit smokes & mirrors, though they have taken two out of three against Tampa.

Should still stroll into the playoffs bc the central's got nothing beyond Tampa, Carolina and Dallas
