Bard Maddox posted:Middleton already fought Dillon after Dillon injured Kaprizov and Maroon fought Lowry at puck drop the next game. the score was “settled”. after that according to “the code” what’s the point of Hartman saying that he’s also cross checking a guy in the face for retaliation? almost seems like being a shitstirrer policing people with unwritten rules is part of the game and there’s not a lot of interest in legislating it out! I appreciate that the only people whining about it in this thread are fans of other teams. I know that DoPS doesn't give a poo poo, and the refs aren't really going to do anything about it. So I'm not going to fixate on it and instead be annoyed that they lost to Calgary on Tuesday while playing poorly again. And now Spurgeon is on IR again. I'm also annoyed that they're probably going to play well enough to be at the end of the playoff hopeful group for a couple weeks too many. Also there's not really any contracts they can move at the trade deadline. And they have $33m of players currently on IR along with the $14m of dead cap for about 55% of the cap not being used to play hockey games. The D is being run by Jake Middleton and a 21 year old rookie in Brock Faber. The forwards are Boldy and Eriksson Ek. The rest are plugs and prospects, so that they're even close to within touching a wild card spot is absolutely hilarious this year. I just want to see MAF go above Patrick Roy in wins this month, because the rest is just not happening this year.

The Oilers lost that game in a shootout anyway. That extra point gave them one more that the Blackhawks that season. The Blackhawks won the lottery and drafted Kane.

USA-Finland 2-2 heading into the third. Gabe Perrault is getting me real excited. Rangers should not be allowed to pick in the top 10. We should get to trade back to pick later in the round. It's better for us: https://twitter.com/IIHFHockey/status/1742999497540608433?s=20 DO YALL WANT A BOXC fucked around with this message at 21:16 on Jan 4, 2024 |

Pains me to say that Cutter Gauthier looks great. Him and thread favorite Rutger McGroarty just put the US up 3-2 doing the Zibanejad-Kreider short side: https://twitter.com/MarcPDumont/status/1743012606833557895?s=20 and now a makeup call on Perrault. gently caress!!!

good win for team USA. Was looking kinda dicey after that first period but after the first 20 minutes they just straight up dominated Finland. That game winning goal felt inevitable.

That game winning goal felt inevitable. Their power play looked really good at the end there. Great poise and discipline getting as close as possible with their chances. Also, Zeev Buium had a shift where he seemed to McDavid style stickhandle through Finland's entire team. Whoever gets him is gonna get a steal, I think a lot of people have him middle-first round still despite leading all NCAA defensemen in points in his draft year lol.

Yea he seems good but I'm also not sure if he just looks good because the defense is kinda garbage this year. So much speed and talent on the roster overall but man these guys don't care about defending.

Levitate posted:bad defense is like every WJC's ever until Canada decides to crack some heads in the finals and oops Canada forgot to get to the finals this year That would be otherwise true, but Sweden didn't even give up a goal until their 4th game. Their D is also all Victor Hedman's size. So the US might pass and have speed, but they're not going to be getting into that low slot easily against Sweden. I could see it either being a 2-1 game or a 8-7 as Sweden has some good goal scoring too.

3 metro teams are currently tied for the WC2 and the WC1/Metro 3 spot are 2 points further up than that. Carolina 2nd in the metro 46 is only 4 points from the mud wrestling. What a weird year.

Del Zotto posted:I tell this story all the time, I was spoiled. My first year was in New York playing for the Rangers and it was first class treatment. Every single day, anything that a player could think of has already been thought of numerous times and had been perfected by the organization. So just even the food we’d have after the game, a fantastic spread of food at home, which I think maybe two guys would go there and actually make the most of it, because you’re in New York City, you’re going out for dinner after.

Just to be clear, I wouldn't be good enough to make the All-Star game. But I would still fake an injury... just in case.

Or they could make the all-star game cool and fun so players don't hate being in it. Cut out the one player per team nonsense, invite the league's genuine top 40 stars and put them all in one game together, and have them do the skills competitions too. We don't need to bring <player X> out from <openly tanking team> for a weekend because he can skate fast in a straight line, there will be plenty of fast skaters and good shooters among the league's best all-around players. or just scrap the whole thing who cares

The NHL and NBA should get rid of All-Star Weekend. Replace it with a down week for the entire league about 60 games into the season. Players rest up; heal some nagging injuries. Coaches can draw up some new plays. Fans get a break. Everyone comes back ready and rested for the stretch run.

What a fun summer that was with of the Melnyk sisters importing water from Sweden for the ice and signing everyone to 8x8. then selling this dumb lovely sicko a team to some finance nerd or something for a billion dollars too much (and lol not telling him he doesn't have a 1st round draft pick)

The stat monkey in the PR office was digging real deep for stats. quote:Wilson, a Toronto native, has recorded 19 points (11g, 8a) in 36 games this season. The 6’4”, 224-pound forward ranks first on Washington in hits (107) and penalties drawn (19), tied for first in games played and shorthanded goals (1), second in shots (103), tied for second in goals, power-play goals (3) and game-winning goals (2) and fourth in points. Among Capitals forwards, Wilson ranks third in ice time per game (18:31) and blocked shots (30), fourth in shorthanded ice time per game (1:42) and fifth in power play ice time per game (2:24). This season, the Capitals have a record of 7-1-1 when Wilson scores a goal and 10-3-2 when he records a point.
