The Sabres can still win this game even though they’re down 3-1 against a team that hasn’t lost yet when scoring first.

I believe in them, for better or worse.

We need more women in STEM, and by that, I mean skateboarding, television, esports, and magic.
I feel like it's really clear what kind of team Detroit is:

- High-powered offense
- Leaky defense
- Inconsistent goalkeeping
- Beats up on bad teams
- Competitive against good teams
- Clearly worse than elite teams, but a puncher's chance any given night

I think they'll make it into the playoffs as either the third Atlantic team or as an Eastern wild card, and their peak would be winning one series, with the most likely scenario being a first-series loss with two game wins.

I'm really happy with the progress this year; this is great.

it's pretty loving weird that this objectively quite mediocre Flames team is better at playing the Stars' game than Dallas is but it's this way every time they play.

I’m watching NYI vs CAR now on ESPN+ and I dunno who’s doing the commentating, but it’s pretty sub-par

I know I don’t post in these threads, but how did Philly get good? Is it because all their guys are so young they don’t remember last season?

Teams can ask for an offsides review if the opposing team scores. Kopitar scored in this game and the Caps asked for a review of an uncalled offsides 64 seconds earlier.

My point is that after 64 seconds, Kopitar's goal had absolutely nothing to do with him being in the zone a fraction of a second too early.

That rule should only be in place of the goal is scored up to 20-30 seconds after the uncalled offsides.

So, 30 second limit and they score at 29.99 seconds.
Should it still count?

Offside is an easy objective rule. Stop trying to make it more complicated.

Nils Lundkvist benched with 5+ minutes left in the 2nd period, after 7 minutes of ice time total.

DeBoer is just going to keep benching him earlier and earlier into games until Nill puts him on waivers or ships him off for a 7th rounder or w/e. What a waste of a 1st round pick.

yeah it's loving bizarre

if the assessment of the team is truly that Nils Lundkvist is not good enough to play against non-playoff teams in games the Stars are winning / tied in during the month of November just send him through waivers and go on to the next guy. It's a complete waste of a roster spot on a team that considers themselves a contender to have a defenseman playing 7 and 8 minutes a night.

Seems like a waste of a pick to only have him play 8 mins too.

He's back out on the ice for a shift in the 3rd but he's frequently played only a couple of those and then gets shut down for the last 10-15 minutes of games.

**ok he just tried to do a bank pass behind his own net and accidently put it on Wedgewood lol. That's a wrap for him I'll bet.

Just turned the game on to see that attempted own goal. Impressive stuff, considering the full on PENALTY SHOT that happened a few minutes before.
