best and worst from the same series is ... something? or maybe it's nothing more than a weird coincidence. who's to say

Quote:
best forwards: hagel (tbl), carlsson (ana), kaprizov (min)
worst forwards: perry (tbl), tanev (uta), malott (lak)
corey perry being the worst forward in the playoffs really warms my cold dead heart. hopefully shitbag teams keep signing him forever.

also shoutout brandon tanev, i really need to come up with a name for this kind of guy who'll probably end up playing 1000-1500 career nhl games while basically or literally never being any good.

Quote:
best dmen: lacombe (ana), hughes (min)
worst dmen: carlile (tbl), harris (bos)
hughes and faber are a menace. nate schmidt has had a bizarre career. worst dmen are all dudes i don't really know, so i guess that makes sense.

Was listening to a POD that had those Montreal stats. Seems unpossible. One of the few games I didn't watch. Don't think I missed much.

Really needed that from Jarvis. Line change from RBA immediately pays dividends.

Playoff OT can take years off of a life. I hope we come out on top.

They're childhood friends who traveled to the 4 Nations, which became a story and gave them notoriety. Then they traveled to the Olympics. And tonight they came to Raleigh and sounded the siren to start the game.

I also just found a story where they were in the booth for a game earlier in the season with the local announcers.

The schedule is pretty ****ed if we sweep. That’d happen on 5/9. If Buf/Mtl play to 7, that’d end on 5/18.

Arber Xhekaj was legit #1 (offense or defense) for xGF% after 4 games, which is insane. Had a meh game 5 and 6 and then was dropped last game instead of Struble for some reason when Dobson came back. I feel like that decision was at least part of the reason that the Habs played smaller in game 7 and looked like crap.

Some of the #s on how close Habs/Ning series was are also pretty crazy. Going into game 7 they'd scored the same amount of goals in the series and the series was either tied or a 1-goal lead for 99% of it.

Habs/Sabres season series was also crazy close. I'm not sure my Covid-addled heart can handle another tight 7 game series, so just want to pre-emptively let you all know it's been a pleasure, just in case.

That was amazing LOL!

Great we have another Treviling in the fact no other gms like him so trades will still be impossible.

I am fine with Sundin but will see how that goes.

I'll be delighted if the Leafs drop a spot in the lottery tonight(?) and the Bruins get the sixth pick, but having the Leafs' unprotected 1st with that management at the helm could also be a fun ride. Seems like an explosive situation. Though I'm still not sure whether the Bruins or Flyers would get the 2027 pick.
