Around the League - 2022-23 Season Edition

I think all NHL fans would agree TB is a tougher opponent than Dallas and LA.

 

[Pi]

Boston, NYR, Carolina, Tampa, NJ, Dallas, Colorado, Vegas, Oil, Winnipeg, LA, Minny, NYI, Pittsburgh, Seattle for me.

I'm betting the Rangers get it together before the playoffs start.

Ullmark, Shesterkin, Vasi, Ott, Sorokin, Helley can win a series on their own.


They did last year until Connor decided he wanted it more.

What happened against the Avs then? Why didn't Connor want to win a game against them?

It's a shame that he didn't want to win anymore. Imagine if he did? They probably don't get swept.

Goaltending, too big a hill to climb in 3rd round. LA will be round #1.

So what type of manipulation would this require

Give Arizona more money

I could see a round of compliance buyouts being discussed that would of course help some teams more than others whereas if the cap goes up the floor goes up.

Or have the buyouts not count toward the cap.

Still faster than Jason Allison's penalty shot

What's up with Binnington? Dude losses his temper very quickly. Costs his team. Can't imagine how guys like RoR and Acciari put up with his act? Perhaps because they won a cup with him?

Here is the kicker: he is not even that good.

My favourite acquisition this year trade deadline.

RoR is potentially most impactful one, but Acciari is so much fun.

Can someone remind me what we paid for Acciari?

See when they won the cup with him he was good. These antics are great when the player is good....when he is making a fool of himself after giving up a 5 spot? Yeah not so much.

I honestly love what Binnington brings to the league. It's super entertaining.

I dont know man, to go hit an unsuspecting player who is celebrating with a blocker while he himself is fully masked and well protected knowing full well no one from his team will allow anyone to touch him.

Pretty cowardly if you ask me.

Entertainment in the NHL is goal scoring. Connor does that every night with highlight reel goals. That's enough marking material for the NHL.

MAF is awesome. The refs suck for not allowing it to happen.

I think many people want more than just goals. There needs to be some sort of conflict once in a while to spice things up.

And it's good to have a villain that everyone hates like Binnington.

I don’t mind spice at all

The opposing team must be loving this. Binnington’s is obviously very distracted and that can’t be good as an NHL goalie. And it showed last night. He let in some stinkers.

wtf is going on in Florida

8 goals in 11 minutes
