Around the League 2018-19 Part 2

[Anaheim4ever]

Oilers won so we are back to the 12th overall pick. We just need Vancouver/Arizona/Edmonton to keep winning so we get a chance at a nice Center in the draft.

We still have nearly half the season to go, let's hold off on the daily updates for a bit.

Not sure how anyone can root for someone like this. Tell me again how bad Kes is CryJo

 

[Paul4587]

CryJo is one of the biggest bitches in the league. I legitimately can’t stand that piece of shit.

 

[mightyquack]

That should be a long suspension. Absolutely no excuse to swing your stick like that at the head of an opponent.

 

[gunnergunther]

That other angle makes it look even worse. 100 percent deliberate.

 

[Mortal Wombat]

 

[Lord Flashheart]

Important to note though, Preds are playing that way because their opponents force them to.

This was the second slash to the head Scheifele took that game. Flopsberg got him earlier in the game

 

[kducks]

Looks like CryJo got a hearing but of course Flops didn't.

It’s strange because if anything the Forsberg one looks 100% intentional, whereas the Johansen one you could argue it wasn’t.

The forsberg one looks like he only hits him in the face because schiefle ended up falling, otherwise that looked like your typical slash to the legs.

Johansen one seemed quite deliberate. Not sure how you'd argue it wasn't.

Because Johansen looks like he spun around blindly whereas Forsberg is chopping down while looking straight at him.

Johansen’s was reckless though, for sure.

 

[Mortal Wombat]

Only two games.

 

[gunnergunther]

Only two games.

The leagues favorite son.

 

[GreatBear]

I would have given him more than 2 games, but the league's disciplinary system is a mystery to me.

 

[Terry Yake]

lols cogs got 2 games for kempe skating into him but they give johansen 2 games for intentionally swinging his stick at a guy

great job DOPS

 

[Cogsfordogs7]

Interference, then a hold, then a tomahawk. Schiefele's headache might be over by the time CryJo gets to play again.

 

[kducks]

Absolutely ridiculous. NHL continues to show its bias.

 

[pbgoalie]

Clearly, Princeton’s acceptance standards are pretty low for hockey players

 

[Frosted Tips]

I shudder to even think the length of the suspension if someone like Cogs would've been in Ryjo's place being the offender!

 

[Frosted Tips]

It's getting pretty brutal for Kings in Denver.

 

[Exit Dose]

Hopefully, that dead horse gets kicked in the third.

 

[alcolol]

The fact Hellebuyck was a Vezina finalist over Gibson is laughably bad. You know how Smith for Calgary is good for one bad goal a game (usually the result of him misplaying the puck)? Well, Hellebuyck is good for one bad goal a game due to his rebound control, or complete lack thereof.

His strategy for stopping shots is this: square up, get as big as possible, and hope the puck hits him. He's completely static in the net. As is the case with many other teams, goaltending is Winnipeg's Achilles' heel.

 

[Paul4587]

SJ isn’t winning a cup with Jones in net. As dangerous as the rest of their roster is he’s not going to cut it as their no 1 goalie
