iospace posted:The thing is, the reason the NFL drew all the concussion poo poo is because A. it's by and large the most popular league in the US, and B. a string of high profile former player suicides involving the after affects. By comparison, the NHL is the 4th most popular league and only one player has died young with CTE, that being Boogaard. Wade Belak was a fairly high profile guy. I didn't even know that Montador had retired, much less died, until I'd read about it.

El Gallinero Gros posted:Belak is nowhere close to as big of a star as some of the NFL guys who have had their lives ruined or even ended by CTE, though. People like Junior Seau, Mike Webster, Pat WIllis....they were all Pro Bowlers, and were greatly affected by CTE. Plus there have been stories in the AP of High School football players committing suicide because of it. Proof: I give no shits about football and even I recognize those names as former NFLers.

Ginette Reno posted:All Canadian teams winning is unacceptable though because there will be endless fluff articles about how [x] team brought the cup "home". If the Pens can't do it I'd rather see Pk Subban riding through Montreal with it in a cowboy hat and with a cigar in his mouth. Which is to say "culturally appropriating cowboy regalia and presenting a poor role model for our children with social tobacco use". He'll probably also be showing an unacceptable amount of exuberance by dancing.

Aphrodite posted:The Senators likely have the 3rd or 4th smallest hockey fanbase even in Ottawa. Our fanbase is plenty big, we just don't have people willing to spend the time and money to go out to the Corel Tire Thingy and get stuck in the parking lot for an hour on our way home. Also our city's largest employers make it an ethical violation to receive tickets for free, which I'm guessing isn't a problem for the wall street types who keep getting interviewed about why they're going to MSG in a suit. Can't drive, won't pay, eff it let's just go to a bar or to Ed's place and watch the game there.

Not sure the weapons that Pittsburgh and Washington could both bring to the ECF would make me term any of their opponents "lucky", but yeah the way this year's brackets played out is some kinda hosed.quote:A: Beard? No. Playoff patches of hair on my face would be more of what it would be. Add Oshie to my ever-growing list of hockey players who are also probably cool people.

Borrowed from yesterday's GDTJordan7hm posted:Anderson has not been great. He's had 6 great games, but also 6 pretty mediocre games. But he was real good in those great games. I'm getting Ray Emery flashbacks. When he was on, man was he brilliant but when he was off, yikes could he play some awful hockey. I'd spent the time up till about a week or two ago thinking Anderson was a pretty solid puck handler; has he been using a borrowed stick or something?

Spring Break My Heart posted:2012 and they'd be a bad example. Didn't they do really, really well t... quote:The Kings also became the second team to eliminate the first, second and third seeds from the playoffs in the same post-season (after the 2003–04 Calgary Flames), as well as the only team to win the Stanley Cup after defeating the first, second and third seeds in sequence. (Darryl Sutter was the head coach of both the 2003–04 Flames and 2011–12 Kings.) They then defeated the New Jersey Devils in the Stanley Cup Finals, becoming the first eighth seed in North American professional sports history to win a championship. They are also one of the few teams to win a championship after never benefitting from home-venue advantage in the post-season. Los Angeles would start every series by winning the first three games, only sweeping the St. Louis Blues. Jeepers.

I'm assuming someone, somewhere keeps track of such an insane stat. http://www.hockey-reference.com/playoffs/playoff-comebacks.cgi Canucks have done it three times, no other team's done it more than twice. e: Penguins did it twice, both times against the Caps

Aphrodite posted:They give out the Cup every year it's not that special. Nah. He comes along every April and disappears in July, kinda like easter candy at Shopper's. Neitherman posted:So Sens fans, what do YOU expect is going to happen during this series? Is Karlsson's foot going to need to be amputated? Are the Senators going to pull off a huge upset? Or are you prepared for them to be stomped into the dirt as suggested by all the stat comparisons? Anderson will either be fantastic or he'll merely be okay and then Condon will be "pretty good for Condon". Either way, those absurd forward lines are going to be forever turning over odd-man rushes from the way 3 guys always seem to fit between 2 and 5. You can't do that with those guys and not expect them to fill your net. Our only hope is MAF forgetting it's the playoffs and turning back into a pumpkin. Or EK remembering that he's Robot Hockey Jesus and winning all by himself.
