Are they going to just run 11 F and keep doing that or call someone up or move Miller to C? WTF. Levitate fucked around with this message at 18:38 on Nov 3, 2017 |

Last year the Islanders and Lightning had 94 and missed. Boston missed with 93 in 2015-16, and the Bruins also missed with 96 in 2014-15. Kings missed with 95 in 2014-15 as well.

Stamkos was arguing the slashing penalty, and sprayed his water bottle in response to being told that wasn't a penalty.

Backstrom was the best player from the 2006 draft and is ridiculously underrated overall

Yes but these thought experiments usually do not involve assuming access to the Far Sight or time travel.

AV called Nieves up because 11F wasn’t working for them. I wonder if this means a trade is coming at some point this season, Zibby, Hayes, Nieves doesn’t seem tenable.

FrenzyTheKillbot posted:Hey SAS dudes, in a couple weeks a few buddies and I are are going on a hockey road trip. We're stopping in Columbus to see the game against the Rangers, and then moving on to Nashville to see the game against the Avalanche the next night. We have our accommodations and tickets sorted out, but we have Saturday night after the game and then all day Sunday in Nashville and we have no idea what to do. Anybody have any suggestions for food, drink, or entertainment options? Ton to do in Nashville. Walkable to the stadium you can get to 3 micro brews minimum: Yazoo, Tennessee Brewing and Jackalope. Flying Saucer has a great selection and is 8 blocks from the stadium. Music wise visiting both Grimeys and Third Man Records is a must do. Parnassis (sp?) Books is a small indie book shop that’s really cool. Best breakfast: there’s a few, but I’ll stand by pancake pantry. Biscuit Love in the gulch is hipster but I like it. Hot chicken is def a thing. I just never got into it when I lived there, so I don’t know he main places. Frist Art Center is cool, that would be a good Sunday thing. Nashville also always has some event going on so check the local listings. If it’s roller derby season roller derby games are fun. Nashville is pretty spread out, so it’s more different segments of town vs walking everywhere. In general and no particular order, 8th street, 12th street, 21st, east Nashville (5 points), downtown are all good options. Basically, anything that isn’t loving honky Tonks.

There's tons of food and bars right next to the Preds arena so if you get there a bit early that's a good place to hang out before the game.

Jamwad Hilder posted:I sort of lean toward Giroux actually even though he's scored less and has had some rough (but still good) years lately. Depends on your criteria. Backstrom is point per game player that has stayed healthy pretty much the whole time. If you're drafting again with the benefit of hindsight, it's hard not to give the edge to Backstrom.

It's pretty close but I'd probably go with Backstrom since I think the offense is more or less a wash but Backstrom is a better two-way player.

This is not actually changing much this year. 0.877 for Price and 0.873 for Montoya. Both goaltenders are in the bottom 15 of the league out of 69 goaltenders)... Aside from being worried next year you're stuck with a goaltender getting injured 3/3 years and paying 10 millions forever for him.

Please put Price on IR Marc and Claude so I can do the same in my fantasy and erase my horrible mistake and Montreal's dreadful defensive performances will no longer count against me in my fantasy. Just do me this one thing if nothing else.

As the Oilers look forward to another loss, let's look at their even strength production this season for each player: Maroon (4) - McDavid (5) - Draisaitl (2) Lucic (1) - Nuge (3) - Slepyshev (0) Caggiula (0) - Strome (0) - Jokinen (0) Pakarinen (0) - Letestu (0) - Kassian (0) Khaira (0), Yamamoto (0) Nurse (0) - Larsson (2) Klefbom (0) - Benning (1) Auvitu (0) - Russell (1) Gryba (0) Only 19 even strength goals. Outside of the top line + Nuge, there's only been 1 goal from 10 different forwards, including the guy we are paying $6 million per season to for the next 6 seasons. Fire Chiarelli.

It was very kind of you to let me out of my  from last season, but I felt obligated to go through with it anyways. I went a little extra because I needed to wait for my finances to settle down.

i live in a city without an nhl team so i mainly follow the league as a whole and individual players that i like. i follow most of the teams that have players from our local chl team but other than that i don't really have a team. is there a column or website that basically just tells me what is the best game or two to watch on a given night that will tell me the storyline for that game? preferably from a similar nhl fan as a whole point of view.

Oilers win 6-3, our 3rd line got a goal at even strength (!!!) and McDavid is now tied for 7th in points with 16. Still, fire Chiarelli.

If Nashville is doing that, why not just trade a d-man for Duchene straight up? He and Turris are pretty comparable players, but Duchene’s younger and under contract longer.

Levitate posted:Weren't their rumors that the Avs were asking for Ceci and Ottawa wouldn't budge? A recent Athletic article showed that Ceci gets put out against other teams' top players way more than any other Ottawa D, and gets circles skated around him. So Ceci's bad, but Ottawa front office thinks he's good.
