2022-2023 Around The League

They are trying to exploit a loophole that'll make him eligible for the AHL instead of sending him back to junior.

Where the hell did the Bolts get this PErbix kid? f***in Tampa with another one?

What a lucky pick!!!

Preds have got themselves a player in Parssinen as well it would appear.

The Edlet hit was completely fine.

Not in the slightest.

Also, in addition to that blatant knee surgery on Hyman, he nearly ended Eric Staal’s career in the Worlds a few years ago. He’s nothing more than a more skilled, more clever Bryan Marchment.

St Louis blew a 3-0 lead, 4-4 going to OT. Got lucky on a high stick goal too.

Lol. The league and pretty much everyone else disagrees with you.

It was absolutely fine. Borderline even being 2 minutes.

Right, because the league always gets it right?

And plenty of people are taking exception to the hit, especially since he's already done it twice before.

This reminds of the Drai situation…

Players only meetings are pointless. They don't accomplish anything.

Eh, Avs seemed to give Cogliano a lot of credit after the Game 5 loss in Denver against the Bolts. He spoke up when they held a meeting after that game.

Really though, it's on the organization as a whole. They really didn't think losing their second-best player was going to implode their offense? Not to mention they got an absolutely insane output from Ryan Hartman he had NO chance of reproducing.

 

[Metallo]

Those tweets are grossly exaggerating the situation. He has a back injury. I thought he had collapse from a heart attack reading those tweets. There wasn't even a collision on that play.

Wasn't Drai playing, albeit bottom 6 minutes?

 

[BobRossColton]

4 point might for Karlsson

4 point might for Karlsson

Brent Burns got traded = new EK

Brent Burns got traded = new EK

EK not having to cover for Burns puck hoggedness/deficiencies definitely helps.

 

[RECKLESS]

Everytime I see Toronto lose in OT, I see Marner totally floating. A couple strides might help, no?

 

[the_fan]

Devils are hot and I was probably wrong about them. They'll make the playoffs, but it seems like they aren't really built for playoff hockey. All their players are rather small and can they handle the playoff grind? It's like they have bunch of Sam Girards on their team who will take physical abuse in the playoffs

 

[Hasbro]

Why did they exclude the tall players?

 

[AvsGuy]

He was the main piece in the ROR trade to STL

I mean it looks that way now, but at the time of the trade, TT was one of several low-value throw ins in the ROR trade - no one expected him to blow up

Agreed. There is a clear lack of grit and the Dcore is pretty soft. Teams like that get outworked regularly in the playoffs.
