Sometimes you have a great goaler like Jakob Markstrom in the regular season! Sometimes you have a lovely goaler like Jakob Markstrom in the playoffs!!!

reposted hot take because I still miss the thrill: In more Pens news sounds like P.O. Joseph is on the block before he gets waivered away for free So the return for Kessel coming off an 82 point season amounted to 1 horrid partial season of Galchenyuk and a dman that can't outplay Ty Smith in camp

Sullivan just dislikes young dmen in general I think. Like I am ecstatic to have seen the last of Mike Matheson in a Penguins uniform but they traded a 27 year old for a 34 year old, and then signed a 32 year old. The last thing the Penguins needed this offseason was to get even loving older, but Sullivan does not like young players and especially does not like young defensemen. I'm skeptical Smith will get much playing time either but we'll see. Eric the Mauve fucked around with this message at 21:58 on Oct 3, 2022 |

I hope VGK make the playoffs if only to get that monkey off of Eichel's back.

Sully does hate kids, but at the same time he hates playing people on the wrong side even more than that. It'll be interesting to see which impulse wins out God I hope Smith sticks... we desperately need some youth on the roster. Thankfully our injury history and lack of depth might force Sully's hands on that part sooner than later

Is Dallas not going to sign their 23 year old 41 goal scorer? Bottom third of the league in offense was too exciting last year?

It'll be interesting to see which impulse wins out Smith has been more noticeable in usually a good way from the several games I've seen. But, spreadsheet says PoJ has had the significantly better chances. Also, trading away the last remaining left handed defender and having 5 righties seems incredibly unbalanced, but I'm sure they're just going to play Friedman on whatever side. As for PoJ...I have no idea. I'm going to be vastly more aggravated by everything Kapanen does anyways. Zohorna has looked decent... Poehling, Caggiula, and Nylander have probably looked a bit better by the eye test and spreadsheet places then all above him. O'Connor has played tougher minutes as well and be adequate.

Gagliardi is on record being against paying a kid over $8mil before he Earns It, so clearly it makes sense to bridge him until the cap goes up in 3 years and then mega-pay him

They only have ~$6-7 million in space unless they can dump or LTIRetire Khudobin so at this point they can't even afford to bridge deal him rex rabidorum vires posted:Smith has been more noticeable in usually a good way from the several games I've seen.

Be interested to see who suits up at 3C tonight since they had Zohorna practicing there as of this morning really hosed themselves there

I just finished watching the 2016 Pens-Caps and Pens-Lightning series and I heartily recommend anyone who likes hockey take that trip down memory lane, all the games are on Youtube. Those two series were some of the best hockey that has ever been played. All three of those teams were insanely good. Also holy poo poo have the Lightning been dirty fuckers throughout the Cooper era, that's definitely not a recent thing. 2016 was probably the best Caps team of the Ovi era, I forgot how beastly that team was. I'm retroactively glad they got their Cup in 2018, those Penguins losses in '16 and '17 were some bullshit.

Edit: lol on me O'Connor and Caggiula were both cut on Sunday. So uh that leaves Nylander or Poehling or Archibald or whatever. Unless Carter is healthy enough to go but wouldn't want to risk that. rex rabidorum vires fucked around with this message at 23:22 on Oct 3, 2022 |

Radim Zohorna or Big Z (and the kids table) as he is known as is a 6'6" left handed 26.5 year old depth forward. With very decent sheltered assignments he put up good production and drove play. At the AHL level he was close to point per. No idea how good he actually is. I liked him, but he didn't standout particularly relative to the half dozen other players Pittsburgh has like that.

I kind of just consider their Cup a culmination of a great era rather than just breaking it down season by season.

Static ads are fine. Or just switch up ads during whistles/TV timeouts. But on the fly ads are going to be really annoying!

Mind_Taker posted:But on the fly ads are going to be really annoying! Yeah, they dumb. "Ads are sold like commercials, with brands buying 30-second increments, based on the game clock. Every game, teams have 120 increments to program. Each broadcaster and the NHL itself get 90 seconds of institutional time for their own advertisements." Just gotta squeeze every last bit of blood from that stone.

https://twitter.com/AccessNowSports/status/1576020261664870400?t=LuABqmTr3XPMpi89YplfHw&s=19 CFL has been kinda doing it for years, just with literal video boards. Not as prominent as in hockey, but if they spare the animation to being just for transitions it might not be too bad.
