GDT: 2023-24 Other Games Around The League

[OrrNumber4]

Goodrow with the EN goal. That should do it. Feel bad for Burns. What a meltdown by the Canes in the third

Extremely embarrassing game from Carolina; Rangers were also fortunate; against a good team Kreider wouldn't be enough.

But Carolina should consider a major retool. Going down 3-0 and then this collapse...along with all their other playoff failures....

 

[Juxtaposer]

Carolina’s problem is that they don’t have a true star. Aho is the picture of consistency, but he does not have the power to take over a game and get his team over the hump. Slavin is a fantastic player but doesn’t have that game-breaking talent you need.

You live and die by your stars in the playoffs, unless your goaltender decides to go nuclear mode and win half your games for you.

 

[timorous me]

God I've always loved Chris Kreider

What a game

I remember like a decade ago reading a bit that Kreider's favorite book was Italo Calvino's If on a Winter Night a Traveller, which really spoke to the English major that I once was. I was like, This is absurd to hear from an NHL player, and I absolutely love him for it.

He went to B.C., btw.

Can't lie I really really wanted another team to become the last one to get reverse swept

Won't lie that this came to mind.

I thought depth was the key factor?

Some Nhlers are big-brained. Joel Ward, Evgeni Nabokov, Joe Thornton, Scott Hannah, and, oddly enough, Bill Houlder (just to name a few). Matt Carle was no slouch either... and the Sharks had a prospect who interviewed like a Rhodes scholar...also believe that Setoguchi and Couture had really good academics...

 

[Tw1ster]

The Oilers are f***ing terrible beyond Mcdavid and Draisaitl. Bouchard was a turnover machine tonight as well. I will forever root against the Canucks but my god, it was tough watching the Oilers play tonight

LOL Seto?!!

I saw Seto at the Brit once.

The Oilers are the perfect example (or anti-example I guess) of what I mean when I say depth is important in the playoffs.

 

[Anomie2029]

Having the Leafs, Canes, and Oilers all really underperform in the playoffs whilst we are sitting here knowing we've been through that and now have the first overall coming into the club is a nice reassuring feeling.

Hope they all make big moves for maximum chaos.

Murray went to Cornell and invented a product! Sure, it was a way to drink beer more efficiently but still lol

yikes

 

[Shark Finn]

Well, f*ck the Rangers.

 

[Shark in Hockeytown]

LOL Seto?!!

I think Setoguchi was selected for an academic award while in junior.

And in PWHL, Minnesota reverse sweeps Toronto and will face Boston in Walter Cup finals starting Sunday.

[one2gamble]

I think that should count

 

[sharski]

LMFAO Reforado at it again

 

[OrrNumber4]

Push through the adversity...

[TheBigDrunkPanda]

Bettman must have money on the av’s

 

[zombie kopitar]

I am honestly still steaming about this, idgaf about anything this playoffs except Pavs getting a cup. robbery

 

[rideaucrusher21]

I think Pavelski almost had one, but missed the tip on a point shot late in the period

 

[LadyStanley]

 

[TheBigDrunkPanda]

So like I was saying Bettman must have money on the av’s

 

[Star Platinum]

Not that I understand the rule, but shouldn't the fact that Makar is pushing Duchene into the goalie factor into the decision somehow? Duchene was starting to drift into the goal already, but Makar is the one that really created the ultimate interference. What's to stop the defense from just pushing opposing players into the goal every time they are desperate to reset play?
