NHL 2023-2024 Out of Town: Regular Season Part 1

[quietbruinfan]

Wings are mediocre, but have a couple of stars and an excellent pp. That is a formula the Sinden Bruins used to great effect in the regular season. (I was wrong about Larkin.)

4-1 DeBrincat notches his second of the game.

 

[Aussie Bruin]

Vegas are 6-0 and have an incredible 16 guys who have already scored at least one goal and 21 with points on the board. By comparison the Bruins, admittedly with one less game, have 6 and 15. That's not to knock the Bs, just to reinforce how much Cassidy has the Knights buzzing again right across their roster. Don't know this for a fact, but it feels like having that many goal scorers so quickly must be some kind of record. Impressive.

NHL brings advanced puck tracking stats to public

The NHL has launched an advanced stats section on its website that brings data from the league's puck- and player-tracking technology to fans for the first time.

Can’t wait to see people fight against these new analytics lol

Been a long time coming. Having speeds and distances available along with other stuff being verified instead of notated by some intern sitting in heaven is desperately needed.

Love the press release coinciding with only a smattering of data being available, or the nhl.com site being too janky to load most of anything.

Read, Novak had a 2 goal game.Still shocked lol

 

[Alicat]

So scary. I hope she makes a full recovery

Apparently, per EF and JM on 32 thoughts, Evander Kane already wants out of Edmonton.

I remember when they went for him McDavid pushed hard for it. yeeesh.

Edmonton sounds like an absolute dumpster fire right now.

This is awesome. Tkachuk and Demitra were a treat to watch. Demitra was so crafty, Mike Liut is also being inducted

Demitra, Tkachuk, Liut earn nods to Blues Hall of Fame

The St. Louis Blues announced three new members to their Hall of Fame to be welcomed in January.

And they have him signed through 2026 at a touch over $5M per. Although he still hits a lot, dude has trouble staying healthy and is obviously not the most stable person. He's mad because he had to play some on the third line this season. Yeah, 0 goals and 1 assist in 5 games and a -6 is not exactly the kind of stuff coaches are impressed by. So glad the Bs have steered clear of him.

 

[22Brad Park]

Never took long for Leafs to bump Bertuzzi down but landing with Nylander and Tavares still feels like a top line

Ahhh the risk of signing a narcissist is once again realized.

Watched the Habs Sabres game last night, so there is a place in heaven for me. Good lord is that a boring and uninteresting Habs team. Buffalo has a lot of young talent to watch develop obviously.

The one is exception is Xhekaj. Not sure if he's such a great defenseman yet, but boy what a nasty piece of work he is. Every opportunity to hit, shove, punch or otherwise bully opposing players is taken. I don't say that as a criticism -- I'm jealous. But really just a reflection of what a pain in the ass he is going to be to play against.

Somewhat curious if this “Frozen Frenzy” registers on anyone’s radar.

I don’t think it will.

RedZone works in the NFL, and I’ll throw it on when the Pats aren’t playing and there isn’t a game I particularly care about.

Hockey? Meh. It’s too early in the season and the regular season games don’t matter with the same magnitude as the NFL.

Now, the way they did the bubble with the staggered start times? That’s something I could get behind for the playoffs, or a Saturday afternoon in March as teams vie for the wild card.

pains me to say this about a Habs player but he`s fun to watch, throwback for sure, simply not many guys any longer who play with a constant snarl and nastiness

Just an update.
But please lets not debate it. Nothing good comes from it.

thanks.

I don't think this counts as "debating it", so I will state my opinion that it seems absolutely insane to have a problem with stick tape during warm ups. Completely bananas.

Here is the official statement from the league.

Yikes! I hope everyone is ok.

So much for the so-called "Cup Hangover" that many teams over the years have encountered at the beginning of the season following a Cup, eh?

I've watched parts of a couple of their games and they look hungry as ever, and it's only the freaking beginning of the season. Have to say as of now they look like a legit threat to repeat.

It should be pointed out that the 3 remaining undefeated teams in the NHL all have opened the season with relatively easy schedules.
