i remember nyr being in on him from the beginning but i think everyone thought the odds on favorite was chicago. or maybe some other team, but not the rangers at first.

whatis posted:I've seen the chart. He's 22, he's been deployed like poo poo by three separate garbage coaches spanning the entirety of his career, and Buffalo as a team has been unable to score at 5on5 for about 4 years now. It's dumb and premature to say he's MAB. If Housley is the least bit competent, Risto will be fine. if there's anybody who should know something about bleeding shots, it's phil housley

Levitate posted:supposedly Pavelec isn't that bad if you "adjust for shot quality" but those statemnts make me nervous i feel like he's a guy who's always had a lot of technical expertise but never put it all together so maybe he just needs some of that Benoit Allaire Magic. i looked at the other ufa goalies and there's uh, not really much out there this year so i guess this is as good as anything.

the mediocre rangers sb nation blog has been doing player report cards and they did theirs on nick holden today where he predictably got a pretty poor grade and they included a video of nick holden making a bad play; but what is interesting here is what jesper fast does on the play: https://cdn.vox-cdn.com/thumbor/NM6...olden_pinch.gif look at fast trying to push stepan into the play (too late to have an effect) - is that a regular thing that players do that i've just never noticed? is there any way for that to ever be useful? do you think stepan was even aware that it was a teammate doing that? i'm really confused by everything that is going on here

Hand Knit posted:How many of the top 10 things in hockey history are some version of off-ice confrontation? Because there's Terry O'Reilly going into the crowd, the Flyers fan going into the box to fight Tie Domi, and, while they don't make the overall list, I love Tortorella at the Flames dressing room and injured as gently caress Darcy Tucker going from the press box to rinkside to try and get at Cam Janssen after Janssen hit Kaberle. i also enjoy patrick roy breaking the bench partition in anger in his like, first game as head coach. and robbie ftorek throwing the bench onto the ice (which resulted in a bench minor) also most of them weren't what you'd call confrontations and did to a certain extent involve on-ice things, but like, everything roger neilson ever did

Jensen hosed off to Russia and Hartford could probably use the help after losing Hrivik. there have already been a bunch of good ahl vet guys signed for hartford. at any rate i think andersson can play in the ahl because he's been playing in sweden.

i don't visually mind ads on jerseys but i don't support the continued encroachment of advertising into things that don't already contain it and i think it's perfectly understandable when people have come to live with it where it's already been for however long, but don't want it to expand. also i think that you're probably for the most part talking to people who don't like the racist caricatures and think that they should go away
