nice to watch hockey again but preseason hockey is so bad

the only thing worse than preseason hockey is the takes about how bad lafreniere is because he's not...doing something? I dunno. He's got chances, he's doing some stuff. Might as well complain about chytil not scoring either

bussy has made some good saves and the rest of the rangers players are basically grinders or too young to be making a difference

quick looks like he sucks though!

e: I think sykora is gonna be a NHLer though. Whether it's a 4th line guy who scores a handful of points or a 3rd line guy who pops in 30 or so I'm not sure yet but hard to bet against a guy with that motor and general skills

I know why they do it, but having the home split having pretty much your NHL team and the away split having an AHL roster + seven guys who mathematically count as veterans. Sure it means home fans see the stars (and probably a win) but it’s pretty hard to evaluate anyone’s performance given the difference in the teams for most games.

The first one. Identical to the slang "bussy." At least that's how the Bruins announcer is saying it.

Yeah Brandon Bussi, Boston Bruins (say that 10x fast) has the funniest name in the NHL and I laugh every time I see it. I've never seen anyone acknowledge it, and why would they, but I'd kill for that sound bite. He's actually quite good too, so it'll be funny if/when he makes it to the NHL full time.

Smejkal and Sokolov are both big fellas who can score, too, so I really don’t understand why they needed a 4th line punch man to keep both of them out of the lineup.

It was funny seeing Domi take a penalty 13 seconds into his first shift. Also Stutzle scoring 2 effortless looking snipes. Hoping he can somehow build on last year.

It’s good to see no matter the coach, players, or time of year, the Rangers get owned by a rookie goalie. Consistency matters.

Pretty good seats for the Stars preseason game near Austin. First time seeing pros since my kid was born five years ago.

Well, "pros", I didn't recognize anyone on the coyotes. But would you anyway? I left after the second when the Stars had as many goals (5) as the yotes had shots.

Looking at the nhl scores site now, and it looks very pretty and modern, but it looks like they accidentally forgot to include the stats? Like 70% of the page is the list of penalties, with the score and scorers scrunched up in the sidebar, and that's all the information there is.

I could be wrong on this but I don’t believe they post the stats on preseason games that aren’t in NHL arenas.

Fantilli looks pretty good I think. He's making a lot of goofy nervous mistakes. In an ideal world they'd let him develop as a top liner in the AHL or something but they desperately need him so I hope at least if they rush him that they don't punish him by knocking him to the 4th line when he fucks up, because he will gently caress up

Seems to be all games. Makes sense if it's a preseason thing, but a bit odd they'd have the play-by-play but not any aggregated stats, or even rosters for the teams playing.
