GDT: Around The League 24/25. First month ends, the parity dream begins.

[Oilhawks]

their PDO will normalize any minute now....

any minute now...

It hasn’t been as ridiculous as last season, where it finally normalized when JT’s “sure thing” game tying goal in game 7 bounced off Zadorov (I think) and away instead of in.

Boston fans sound just like us for a lot of this year.

"We make every goalie look like Hasek" lol

13-2 High Danger chances and they are losing 1-0

Outshooting VAN 30-12

Shot attempts are 55 to 19.

They play such limp dick hockey. Not a lot of shots. Get away with a few for sure calls. Goalie saves all of their defensive blunders.

Major difference being our players should score more, but aren't for various reasons, while their players simply can't. They have a skill deficit up front.

Don't want to be too hard on Bruins fans because they're generally pretty on top of things, but their view of their team is bordering on delusional. Some of the takes on twitter I saw celebrating the coach firing as a magic bullet were dumbfounding. Their team is/was elite, elite goaltending and defending that back stops anemic offence. Last year they basically made the playoffs on the back of getting 1-1 and 2-2 games into OT and then going from there. It shouldn't be a shock that they can't win the moment goaltending goes south.

The Lindholm and Zadorov signings both qualify as deals that you know are horrendous the moment they were signed. This Bruins team is 100% on Management.
