Around the League 2017-18

[ffh]

Reading a thread on Canucks board and Burmistrov is playing 2nd line center for them. Good God think of the children

is that not a good thing if you are Vancouver management.

 

[winnipegger]

I have no idea of the thought process of Vancouver management. It is a very oddly constructed team tbh.

They're waiting out the Sedins. In a holding pattern.

The moniker Hockeytown doesn't describe Detroit anymore, so many empty seats in a brand new building.

Jeez what a shot by Kucherov

 

[Boreal]

I hope Dahlin ends up in Van. Since I watch a lot of Canadian team hockey, having the bulk of the league's future superstars concentrated north of the border is fun.

Kucherov is an amazing player.

Why not hope he ends up in Winnipeg? Between Maurice and the lottery, I like our chances.

Rangers

Devils and Rangers B2B #1's would be good for the league IMO.

Plus it keeps him out of the western conference.

As long he doesn't land on Detroit. They need to suffer.

Playoffs that many years won’t mean much without some Cups. Obviously they got some but just some food for thought.

Anyone who hasn't joined the athletic yet can get in now at 30% off

Best way to get cups is to keep making the playoffs year after year. Once in, anything can happen - and usually does. To paraphrase Casey Stengel.

Yeh well didn’t work for the Braves all those years. Should have called them the Atlanta First Round Exits.

I think that parity makes hockey the least predictable of all the major NA sports. 16 of 31 teams will make the playoffs. The 16th seed has a realistic chance of winning the cup. Of course the top 2-3 seeds have a better chance but 16th has a genuine chance. Keep making the playoffs and the odds are good that you will win a cup.

What are you talkin' 'bout Willis. He barely touched the puck with the tip of his blade and it trickled into the net.

 

[Holden Caulfield]

The rink situation in Calgary is really deteriorating fast. Flames communications director attacking the mayor directly now. This is just embarrassing.

I'll bet someone's about to get Scaramuccied.

 

[JetsUK]

Or Spicer'd. Still trying to get my head around a Ken King-era Flames employee who hates Nenshi AND Trump.

No doubt it'll be a terrific, tremendous, absolutely world-class arena if it ever gets built.

Burmistrov with a goal and and an assist tonight playing on BBB line with Boeser and Baertschi.

Oilers down 3-0 to Carolina after the first, Jets have company in the stink department.

Great, we'll fire Maurice and hire McLellan. And then it's...
