GDT: Around the League - 2021/22 PART IV

[Seath The Scaleless]

lmao Devils

 

[TMLeafer]

Panthers losers of 3 straight, giving up 16 goals in over that span. Maybe not the unbeatable force they're made out to be, especially with the same lack of playoff success other teams' regular seasons are dismissed for.

 

[as Pure as Evil]

was gonna start a thread on the main board about this but i dont need the headache. guess hasek called ov a chickenshit over his interview he also has some strong views

Dominik Hasek calls Alex Ovechkin a 'chicken (expletive),' wants NHL to suspend all Russians

 

[zeke]

Nice, Rangers lose.

Leafs back in 5th place.

The good thing about those losses is that they lost them in their own barn, before these losses it seemed like they were unbeatable at home but very beatable on the road. This way, it won't matter as much if we have home ice against them in the playoffs.

NHL legend Dominik Hasek calls Ovechkin a chicken s**t.
Because Ovie is a Putin supporter.

Not to get political but mad respect for Hasek.

They’re bound to having growing pains

Even if they are truly the team to beat.

If they skid towards the playoffs it’s not a good sign for them. But lots of season left right now. I’d like to see the Leafs make up the ground they lost.

Tampa now has an opening to seize top seed.

 

[LeafalCrusader]

Tampa now a point back of Florida with 2 games in hand.

The infatuation with Florida is a bit odd. Their core 2 (Barkov/Huberdeau) are older than Toronto's (Matthews/Marner) and have done equally little. They have scored more goals than TB and Toronto but have also given up more. Their goalie has poor stats in the playoffs and struggles with inconsistency. Most of the critiques that apply to Toronto apply to Florida.

 

[djdev]

edmonton loses, no points from mcdavid or drai, matthews creeping closer and closer

 

[3blizzard4]

Oilers record against the Big Boys of the East:

Got swept by Toronto twice
Got beat by Tampa
Beat Panthers miraculously
Got beat by Carolina

But the constant chatter over there is how weak the East is lmao

 

[X66]

Nick Ritchie goal and assist, expect the main board thread shortly

 

[Aashir]

Nick Ritchie goal and assist, expect the main board thread shortly

I’m surprised he isn’t at his hat trick by now to be honest

 

[Seath The Scaleless]

Demko put on a show in the first period. A couple of beautiful saves

Lafreniere has looked dangerous with the puck lately but no one can bury his passes

Shhh that’s too logical

 

[keonsbitterness]

Some dude named Crosby scores the winner late in the 3rd as the Pens beat Columbus 3-2.

I'm surprised they called it a good goal given that they have disallowed goals for much less.



Ruling on the ice was that Elvis initiated contact (lol)

I thought it was the right call. And they didn't take much time on the review.

Tampa likely takes 1st place in the division tomorrow. Toronto and Florida have the night off, and Tampa plays Ottawa. If they win they'll have 76 points in 52 games.

Florida (75) and Toronto (74) have played 53.

After some rough games last week Toronto made up some nice ground on Florida.

Hopefully Florida goes into a bit of a slump.

All three teams have easy stretches coming up.

Edit:

April could be a bloodbath for the division if things are close. Toronto has two games against both Florida and Tampa (as well as another late March game against Florida,) and Tampa and Florida also have a game against each other.

both tb games are back to back with the panthers games too, gonna be interesting.

 

[Mattfan02]

Boston keeps on winning booo

 

[Seath The Scaleless]

Does DeBrusk still want to be traded? My guess is probably not now that he is raking on the top line lol

 

[Jmo89]

Boston only has to win 16/29 to hit 100 points. The Atlantic is going to have four 100 point teams most likely.

I thought the Metro would too, but Caps seem to be slowing down alot.
