it is basically just the Oilers' already terrible third jersey with the little bit of personality it had sanded off

dunno why the NHL keeps pushing those horrid designs

The jersey design zeitgeist slowly shifts back and forth over the years between cool designs and hideous designs as new generations of designers arrive determined to change everything to make their own mark, we've drifted back into a Hideous Design era the past couple years

Absolutely. It's the logical move, and while flipping a guy for a good return when you received assets to acquire him for free is almost an impossibly best case scenario of asset management, it's still gonna make me sad to see him go.

I POSTED WHAT NOW!?
As a Flames fan, yes Huberdeau meant to hit him. He didn’t mean for the helmet to crush him, but I have no doubt that the hit was meant to be nasty. Roslovic had some questionable actions that night. Slammed Weeger in the back, got a trip on Zary (I think) by sticking out a leg (he did get called for that one). I wouldn’t be surprised if it was simply “Gonna give this rear end in a top hat a taste of his own medicine.” It was incredibly stupid on Huberdeau’s part.

Come playoff time someone should hire Matt Cooke to teach their players how to kill dudes with elbows. It's effective and there are no significant repercussions.

Oilers are a bit scary because they're doing this without mcdavid putting up 3+ points a night since he'll just get interfered with into oblivion when ~playoff rules~ come into play.

I can't remember the last time I've been so bored by watching the Capitals. The team isn't winning, Ovechkin isn't scoring, Kuznetsov has lost any drive, hell even Tom Wilson has decided to stop hitting people after he locked up his retirement contract. Even when they sucked under Adam Oates at least the power play was sick.

The only players worth watching now are...Dylan Strome and Charlie Lindgren? Both good players, but hardly players I'm going to turn the TV on to watch.

It sucks so bad. I thought we'd be able to at least watch Ovie sock dingers in losing efforts...nope

My advice to you, if you have ESPN+, is to watch Boston College hockey. Get insanely excited about Ryan Leonard. Wouldn't surprise me if he's in the NHL next year or even this spring. He rules.

I don't believe any of the teams in the East are good to be honest. Including Boston. They all have some kind of fatal flaw. I think there are probably 4-5 teams from the West I'd rank as cup favorites before I got to an East team.

Watching the BC vs BU game is exactly what prompted me to post this! I don't even give a poo poo about college hockey and it's been a million times better than any Caps game this season.

My hope for Leonard is that he becomes more of an annoying pest that pisses off other teams and fanbases rather than a dirty player. The Tom Wilson comparisons aren't quite apt since Leonard is definitely more skilled, but I hope he occupies the brain space of other teams like Wilson has in the past without the brain scrambling.

My impression of Leonard is that he's one of the dumbest motherfuckers alive. And I mean that in a positive way. He's basically a golden retriever on skates. I also think he's more of a prime TJ Oshie than a Tom Wilson. Definitely can play physical but more of an emphasis on skill.

Yeah I've seen the Oshie comparisons which would be a great outcome for Leonard. I think a lot of people forget how good Oshie was before he got old.

But Leonard definitely has some of the Wilson "every opposing fanbase will hate my guts" which will also be great

By point percentage they're actually not that far off being a playoff team, but a lot of that is predicated on them winning their games in hand and they aren't winning poo poo of late.

I dunno what to do with them really. Even if they decide to sell they aren't going to get some king's ransom for Guentzel. He'd fetch like a first and a b+ prospect which is whatever.

Actually I do know what to do with them and it involves changing the coaching staff but Sullivan is never going anywhere it seems
