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

[KillerMillerTime]

LA skating Leafs into the ice but somehow Leafs still get 4 powerplays Kings won that game however in dominant fashion in spite of shots on goal 31-27 Leafs.

I watched the game and didn't see anything questionable on the Kings penalties. Leafs had just returned from a 5 game trip so that was somewhat a trap game. Kings had way more energy and Woll wasn't a wall.

Flames off to a terrible start and this guy wanted Sutter gone, seems they let the wrong guy go. You would think Kadri would back up his words and lead by example. They have him for 7 million a year till 2028-29.

Ouch. Doesn't get much worse than that.

Just curious, anyone else here planning to attend Bruins-Rangers in Manhattan on Nov. 25? I definitely shelled out, but since I'm spending the weekend there(for the BU-Cornell game), there was no way I could not go. Whenever I make this biennial trip, I try to go to an NHL game if one of the New York area teams is at home. Last time, I took the train out to UBS to see Pens-Isles. Unfortunately, I never made it to a game in Uniondale.

Off to read the Leafs board

For those of you are in line for an ice cream cone?........

The Mitch Marner Mango. Let me tell you..... that is NOT the flavor of the month. Apparently it's an extremely soft ice cream and ridiculously expensive. In fact, it is the single reason you can't afford another more attractive ice cream.

And what is that more attractive ice cream? Well it's the Nifty Nylander Noughat of course. Let me tell you my friend.... that IS the flavor of the month. Oh very much so.

Also hot -- but as of last night cooling off a bit -- the Woseph Woll Wasberry. Earlier this week you would not have been able to buy even a taster but as I say as of last night less of a run on the JWW. If things keep going this way you'll buy it discount at the local IGA. Which incidentally is where you can buy the Bert Bertuzzi Banana and the Max My Dad Is Mocha Maniac Domi. Those new flavors are not in high demand to date -- in fact there have been several requests for a return.

Lastly, a flavor that is no longer offered, the Kyle Dumbass Kiwi. Apparently that is an ice cream that sucked then, sucks now, and is the reason that the shop is designed the way it is -- with an overload of fancy expensive soft serve offerings that at the end of the day will leave you wanting.

Absolutely crazy how far that team has fallen after expectations heading into last season were so high. Plenty of experts were picking them to make it to the SCF. Heck, I was planning on watching a lot of their games heading into the season because they looked like they would be a great team and a lot of fun to watch. Instead they ended up 5th in the Pacific and didn't even make the playoffs. Already off to a rocky start this season. Only the Sharks have a worse DIFF in the NHL than the Flames.

The Tkachuk-Huberdeau trade, which I thought at the time wasn't a horrible trade for either team, sure seems to have had a massive impact on both clubs. Huberdeau has been very disappointing while Tkachuk helped lead the Panthers to the finals.

[missingchicklet]

wow

That seems too harsh. Looks even more ridiculous when compared to the "punishment" the NHL saw fit to give Chicago for a plethora of bad stuff.

Hope he’s able to return to hockey

I saw that he is only the second NHLer to return from this type of hip resurfacing surgery, with Patrick Kane trying to be the third. Jovanovski was the first, and he only lasted 37 games after coming back. Odds aren't in Backstrom's favor, especially given his age. After working so hard to recover from surgery it would be great if he could come back and play to finish out his contract over the next couple seasons. Hard to see it happening, though. My guess is he retires. Major respect to him for giving it a go after the surgery.

Sens fans here in Ottawa will be dancing, this was long overdue. Losing the 1st round draft pick today over the Dadanov trade was the final straw. Will be interesting to see who replaces him, apparently Chiarelli is in the running.

 

[Number8]

wow

So Dadanov and a first rounder for Nick Holden and a third. Ouch……….

 

[smithformeragent]

Senators, seriously what the f***?

The hardcore Sens fans I know are pissed off and will be apoplectic if they hire Chiarelli

Ha ha, the Sens fans I know are absolutely delighted that Dorion is finally gone. On a personal note I used to know Chiarelli's brother who he also hired to work for the Bruins, was a really nice guy, got me some nice Bruins swag years ago. His daughter played soccer with mine, thus the connection.

New Sens owner didnt mince words.

Gotta respect it

 

[Alicat]

What a mess in Ottawa.

New Sens owner didnt mince words.

Gotta respect it

Major respect to the Ottawa owner. Will be interesting to see if he sues the NHL.

 

[McGarnagle]

Andlauer is absolutely in the right. If the NHL has been investigating these things prior to the sale and didn't inform him, he got jobbed out of tens of millions probably

 

[BlackFrancis]

wow

Didn't they give Jersey a penalty like this, only for Lou to tell them to gtfo when the clock struck midnight?

 

[NeelyDan]

How does the NHL continually find way to make themselves look less and less competent

It’s like they’re trying to
