2024/2025 Around the League

Isles were leading 3-0 and are now trailing 6-3. Roy inherited a really shitty situation.

How the f*** can a team using Namestnikov as their 2C go 8-0?

More like sometimes advanced stats are not telling the truth.


As much as @henchman21 is convinced that he's just streaky and everything is normal, I don't believe that a bad streak is 30 games long and spread over 2 seasons.

He's pouting because Miller took "his" 1C spot, that's more than likely what's happening.

Yeah, we know. You don’t like advanced stats and REALLY don’t like Pettersson.

Another lose for the leafs in it to Boston, three brutal games for them and a terrible give away by Matthews

Joel Edmundson scored 2 goals tonight, EP has 0 goal this season.

PS: I don't dislike advanced stats at all.

Edit: EP just scored a goal! Stop the presses!

Well, I think Henchy pointed out last year that technically it’s Lowry who’s the 2C, regardless they kinda did this last season where they dazzled everyone with their defensive play and depth and then did jack shit in the playoffs.

I’ll give credit to Arniel for doing the one thing Bones apparently couldn’t—keep Ehlers out of the doghouse.

Joel Edmundson scored 2 goals tonight, EP has 0 goal this season.

PS: I don't dislike advanced stats at all.

If Edmundson still has more goals than EP at season’s end then by all means, go nuclear on him. I am assuming that won’t be the case for long.

Rank 1 PP and the 2nd best goalie in the NHL

The dude is just a f***ing menace on the ice and I absolutely love him.

Seriously, is there anyone that doesn't like him? Or wish he was on their team?

Meanwhile, on the Canucks board...

I mean with what we’ve seen from Shittyton I’d gladly take Brannstrom over him.

I'm struggling to tell the difference between a Makar who forgot how to play defense and a Hughes.

Sure made a difference making him the captain over Tavares

 

[LOFIN]

Not really that concerned about Winnipeg TBH. They will come down.

This is just piss poor officiating. Even if Varlamov deserves a 2 minute minor for slashing Tkachuk, you HAVE to whistle Tkachuk here ESPECIALLY when he comes around and cross checks Varlamov?

Sheer incompetence by the refs and that's saying something given they are calling so many penalties to start this season.

And with every point, he acts like he's never scored a point in a game before.
