Around the League - 2024-2025 Part II

[Sypher04]

Lot of shutouts tonight

Let's go Buffalo

Let's go Buffalo

Tampa on the road.

 

[Evilhomer]

yeah, the division is really in doubt now.

 

[willmma]

Buffalo wins!

 

[Evilhomer]

I have to say, you called it well so far.

Race between TB and the Leafs.

That game becomes huge. The Florida game does't except for the race between TB.

Well done sir.

Just remember, people will still ridicule because the cool thing to do as a Leafs fan is irrationally assume the worst.

 

[thusk]

I said it than Buffalo would not be an easy game... They just beat tampa, washington, Winnipeg, ottawa twice and vegas last 3-4 week

 

[Cleetus]

The Blues are going on a 2019 run again aren't they. 12 In a row!

 

[mikeyz]

The late '80s Oilers, Sabers team pulls it out again. LOL

I doubt it. They are just on a really nice streak right now.

They do this every year. Get eliminated then decide to go on a heater playing spoiler and then make people think they'll be good next year

Well done sir.

Florida game is becoming big because of the other end of the standings. Ottawa is only 4 points back

Panthers have some games in there they should win with relative ease.

 

[PROUD PAPA]

Top the night off with a Flames regulation win over Vegas. Vegas/Oilers 1st round sounds wonderful.

Playing without any pressure can have that kind of impact but that just helped leafs to raise their lead for division title

 

[LaPlante94]

Anyone else worried Boston is tanking at the perfect time to potentially get Schaefer or one of the many good Cs this draft and maybe McKenna next year? NHL would love to see that.

they actually get 7,5% chance for schaefer...

 

[LaPlante94]

they actually get 7,5% chance for schaefer...

Could easily go up to 9.5% though. I could see Shaefer possibly dropping to 4th too since you got a few legit Cs who would make a good 1-2 punch with Bedard and Celebrini and Nashville is the wildcard because they can use a legit C prospect and D prospect. Either way though it could be a good possibility that Boston tanks in back to back years and ends up with a legit 1-2 punch at C or a legit 1D and 1C with Pasta and Mcavoy already there.

Schaefer is in an other category in this draft and the clear #1 and he will be draft 1st overall, no chance at all he drop to 4th...

Even if they do everything they could to tank, they're no guarantee at all that will work

Gonna be hard for any team to pass on Misa. Also got Hagens. Not saying he'll drop to 4 because he could be the best player in the draft but there's quite a few good forwards ranked in the top 5-10 of the draft and Shaefer only playing 17 games may or may not work against him.

It might not work, but the fact that it could and Boston being one of the best teams for viewership in America I believe would just benefit the league.

Panthers have some games in there they should win with relative ease.

Panthers I don't think care much about where they finish since its not going to be first. So they'll probably rest people.

 

[willmma]

The Leafs were never ahead of them.

They are now tied but Carolina has more RW and ROW so they remain ahead

Leafs are ahead of Carolina now

 

[willmma]

How is Boston not showing as eliminated on NHL.com yet?

 

[FerrisRox]

shouldn’t have put knight in. Let Mrazek get posterized

Mrazek and Knight aren't teammates...
