Around the League - 2023/24

Watching Toronto’s defense ruin that great offensive core’s chances at a Cup makes me even more thankful for Makar, Toews, and Byram. Lol

Why are Habs fans booing Bedard?

 

[Avs9296]

I know your hate boner is as hard as it can get, but the kid is 21. Way too early to say much there.

That never stopped you from ripping on Newhook.

Our championship was built on mobile, puck moving D-corps. That's my opinion.

 

[Metallo]

Absolutely atrocious coverage by Bedard on that Monahan breakaway goal, it was his man.

 

[Cypher]

Bedard has a lot to learn. Missed wide far side in the PPQB spot, it rings around, and doesn't cover Monahan on the backcheck for a breakaway goal.

Goalie versus a Center....

They just mad they lost out on him.

Can’t believe this needs to be said… goalies are different than skaters.

Also, define rip… I’ve said he’s going to be a 2nd line winger, but didn’t have a skill set for center. A 2nd line winger is still a hell of a player…

 

[The Kingslayer]

Newhook has looked better in the 2 games as a Hab then at any point as an Av. Good for him. Also, f*** that pendejo.

That sounds like them. Boo the young kid (with unreal expectations/pressure) cause he was drafted by another team. Why not?

That's not why they boo him lol

Montreal's crowd boo other teams stars all the time, kinda like "getting in your head" thing.

Kid got an ovation from the same crowd during the warmup.

wouldn't sign a sweater for the kid

 

[Colorado Avalanche]

Kadri looks like someone who got paid and don't care that much anymore. He needs his edge back.

Kadri looks like Kadri minus that one cup/contract year.

That makes even more sense. They’re an intense bunch. I’ll never forget the stories of calling 911 when Chara plastered Patches into the stanchion

He definitely lost some ambition and Calgary isn't doing too well. Good chance they will rebuild if they fail again or be mediocre forever. It's painful.

It’s Calgary. They’re masters of eternal mediocrity

Eternal mediocrity it is then

Sometimes I feel like I'm the only one who remembers how bad Kadri was in the 2020-21 season. He was SO bad, taking awful decisions all over the ice and he wouldn't break out of it. The playoff suspension was the icing on the cake.

 

[redacted]

Kadri was good last year, but he’s always been up and down. If he was ever consistent in his career, he would have been a franchise center.

Agreed, he was awful here aside from the Cup year.

Calgary are a lottery team.

Tage Thompson sucks. Cant believe I used my 3rd pick on this f***in guy
