I gotta say it. The only reason the Rangers can stay competitive despite their sub-par defense is AV and his offense-first system. Hank's got HHoF on lock, so who cares if his late career stats slump. Get that man a ring! (ps, thanks Vancouver).

quote:Based on draft position, Dallas will receive the middle pick of Ottawa, San Jose, or Toronto's second-round selections in 2017 per the conditions in which Anaheim acquired the pick from Toronto in a previous trade. Should Anaheim advance to the third round of the postseason and Eaves plays in 50 percent or more of their games in the first two rounds, the selection becomes the Ducks first-round selection in the 2017 NHL Draft. Not a bad return but am I crazy to think he could easily get a 1st at the deadline? 21 goals on the year and his cap hit is nothing. Rental and all, but still. Lol, Patrick Eaves is now the ducks second leading goal scorer.

I'm not saying he's worth a first, but 21 goals and a tiny cap hit. Plenty of dumb gms out there and everyone seems to think they'll make the playoffs.

Starsfan posted:Stars apparently didn't acknowledge that today was "You can Play" day, where NHL teams recognize the community of LGBTQ hockey fans and players. No reference to this event at all during the television broadcast or in game presentation. People are now arguing whether a 20 second video with Tyler Seguin shouting out to You can Play was shown in arena before the game started. The Flyers also did jack poo poo for this and one of the blog, Broad Street Hockey, was giving them poo poo about it

The only target I can think of to bring up is Laich, but the Marlies are also on a bus to Hershey right now so it's probably not worth it.

He can't be worse than Smith, who is being outplayed badly by Frederik "1 goal in 26 AHL games" Gauthier.

Turns out he does, I didn't realize the Leafs had signed him to a two year deal. Also so does Seth Griffith, who I forgot about but has already suited up as 4C this year. Bozak isn't actually injured according to Babcock, maybe they can't call anyone up? The only reason Gauthier's in at all is because of Marner being placed on IR.

Babcock has been pretty vocal with his opinion that Marner should have been cleared by now, but considering how Rielly has looked coming back early from his sprain I think Marner should be held out as long as he needs. It's also pretty lovely to call out team doctors in the media like that imo, I understand the frustration but coaches in general should probably keep their medical opinions to a minimum.

They are testing out a new real time player tracking system on my local team in  https://twitter.com/steinbran/status/835482526269440000 They are supposedly sending the data to a company in Toronto, but I'm not sure if it's to someone associated with the NHL

Well, near real time. It's at least 2 seconds behind the skaters. The precision looks quite nice though.

I do wonder if he thinks what it might have been like playing for a contender. Probably not, given that he wouldn't have gotten the same kind of spotlight.

Let me start this off by saying I don't think this will happen, even though I very much hope. So, let's say the Habs continue losing. How many losses in a row do you think it would take for them to fire Julien? Does he make it through the season regardless even if they lose the next 20? What if they lose 5, win 1, and repeat that pattern for just 4 more wins on the season? Do they keep him?

The only one who might survive is Waite and I can definitely see him going if Bergevin gets fired anyway. I don't know if Julien goes because Bergevin goes but Bergevin's arse is on the hotseat right now not Julien.

Nik Kypreos reports that the Leafs are interested in Sheahan. The market was set by Eaves (21 goals) getting a conditional 2nd/1st. Now Sheahan has zero goals, which is significantly fewer than 20, but he's 24 so he could cost as much as a 1st. How many punches to the face do I need to take before I can get a job like that?
