GDT: Around the League | '22-'23 II

[La Bamba]

Annoying that the Flames got a point but oh well. 5 points up, 21 games to go

 

[TGOSnipes99]

Boston looked like the worst team in the nhl tonight
Just horrible

 

[Mr McV]

HaHa Calgary.

 

[bellagiobob]

Eat shit, Flames.

So their usual post game meal?

6 points since we own the tie-breaker

 

[Ritchie Valens]

The Flames get the Leafs riding off on another Oilers back to back game and the sun rising each morning.

Name a more iconic duo.

 

[Oilhawks]

fLames are selling on Friday. Suck it lurkers

Flames goalies finish with .600 and .857

 

[5 Mins 4 Ftg]

Loser franchise gets another loser point.

 

[Ritchie Valens]

"The Double Zadorov!!!"
-Pierre McGuire's erection

 

[CantHaveTkachev]

Flames get every break imaginable...perfect health, every Eastern team dog tired rolling into town (including the Leafs Thursday), most backups (not tonight) and still can't manage to win games
losers

A livid Tre is on the phone with Gary right now, despite having the most favorable schedule in league history, and is demanding that the Flames now only play teams that are playing three games in three nights. Gary didn’t think he could do that, so Tre asked for compensation from the Oilers on the Ekholm trade. Gary thought that was reasonable, and he will see what he can do.

Nice to see improvement from them.

Lol. Thank you bruins for at least showing up in the end. Stole that point away.

They call them Calgary Points for a reason.

 

[Drivesaitl]

Flamers need to do around 14-7 in remaining games to nab a playoff spot. Even that would just get them 95pts and no lock. yeah I don't think thats even happening.

 

[Kerberos]

Gotta love a Bruins team playing at about 10% on fumes stealing that game from those rednecks.

Calgary is no good.

 

[Ritchie Valens]

Here's more Calgary math, according to Rick Ball at the start of the telecast.

Q:. If the two wild card teams each have 72 points but the Flames have 66 points, how many points are needed to be in a playoff spot?
a. 10
b. 7
c. 6
d. 4

He chose d.

Third round pick heading from the Oilers to the Flames in 3….2…..

LA Kings get their tender:

 

[bellagiobob]

Decided to put my Flames hater goggles away for a minute, and take a look at their roster, and see how many changes would be required for them to have a realistic chance at making the playoffs, The answer:

2 goalies
3 dmen
7 forwards
1 coach
1 GM

So word on the street is that they would require 15 total changes, and I only come up with 14, so not as gloomy in Cowtown as expected.

LA Kings get their tender:

Uh oh. This is good for nobody except the Kings. Korpi may not be great but light years better than anything they've had in net. Getting rid of Quick in the process is just some 4D stuff. Wish we had some of that going on. I'd rather have Korpi than any of our goalies. Could you imagine working a deal to take back the Campbell contract? we only get to dream.

Incredibly Korpi has better numbers than Quick while playing on worst in league team. Kings get Gavrikov as well. not good news. Kings give up a First (which they have no use for) and get rid of Quick to immensely improve their club. "the price you have to pay" lol. Kings all in now.

 

[TopShelfGloveSide]

I’m kind of shocked they did that to Quick.

I think Korpisalo is under valued. Has had significant down years tied to mediocre teams but has demonstrated ability to lock in and win games and playoff series. Gavrikov can be gravy in addressing LA's left defense need. Moving out Quick to do it is a great piece of business, absolutely. Kings are the match up I like the least for the Oilers. Now with a goalie who can steal games.
