GDT: Around The League 24/25. Parity, blessed parity.

[Soundwave]

How exactly did Hrudey become a Flames' fanboy anyway? He spent his career playing for the Isles and Kings, and with LA they were great rivals of Calgary. Isn't Hrudey from Edmonton?

Oilers used to light Hrudey up like a Christmas tree, that probably contributes to his hate.

 

[OilerTyler]

Hrudey was giddy announcing that he jumped back in front of Draisaitl. Great example of little brother syndrome in action.

Tbh I don't think Draisaitl really cares about regular season awards at this point.

Remember last year when McDavid and Draisaitl were resting at the end of the regular season while other stars were taking 3 minute shifts against empty nets and dressing in game 82 to try to hit personal milestones? It's no surprise which players went further in the playoffs.

Van and Sj are pretty evenly endowed with talent

he knows where his bread is buttered...therefore he slobbers all over the Flames for their low-IQ fans

Rantanen's value plummeting by the game

1G 1A in 6GP for the Hurricanes

Hurricanes gave up their team leader in points who is an RFA at the end of the year, an okay 25YO 3/4C and a 2nd, 3rd and 4th round pick

Will be hilarious if Rantanen walks in the summer.

Eat shit Flames (I know I’m late but it’s worth saying anytime).

Maybe the Avs were onto something.

Never too late for this statement

I still think Rantanen will re-sign with the Avs.

maybe a product of Mackinnon more than we think

 

[yukoner88]

I lost my shit laughing at that a minute ago! "Hooray, Huberdeau completed a five-foot pass!" Evidently, this is highlight-worthy in Calgary.

Also, I've only seen this second period, but holy cow the Flames' PP is pathetic.

The guy has pink eye from brown nosing that team n city so much

 

[Stoneman89]

Honestly the league should have always counted them as 1/2 goals from the start for personal stats.

I'm sure Gretzky had a few as well.

At least Gretzky's were ethical.

I forget where I read it, but some so-called insider type said emphatically that Rantanen will sign with the Oilers this summer. That would be incredible, but the cap and salary gymnastics would have to be spectacular for that to happen.

Avs play the shit out of their top stars and Rantanen is now playing almost 3 minutes less per game in Carolina
that's a big adjustment to make

 

[Stoneman89]

Mackinnon with 3 points tonight. It will be a fun race

Kucherov is the dark horse in that race.

He is a very good player, but certainly not a line driver. And those are the guys that should get the big bucks. He is a product of whoever can feed him the puck, and he had that in spades in Colorado. Aho is a very good player but he ain't no MacKinnon. Saying that, he'd be incredible in an Oiler uni, playing beside the big German.

Already making some of Chia's trades look masterful by comparison.

After all the self-congratulating Hurricanes fans were doing after that trade, it looks good on them. Easily one of the most obnoxious fanbases I've ever interacted with (source: my closest NHL team geographically).

 

[Da McBomb]

Since the Calgary-Philly trade, the Flames have lost 3 of their 4 games and Farabee and Frost have 2 points in total and a combined -7 lol. That's $5 million Farabee

 

[Messrules11]

Watching ovi with the goalie pulled at this point is just embarrassing.

Even on the pp, he just stands there, literally. In Gretzky’s last year he atleast showed his creativity and still looked like a player. Ovi is a joke at this point.

Im fairly certain Kuch will take the Art again. McDrai will not be winning unless our PP becomes relevant again and they learn how to hit an empty net lol.

Speaking of horses

 

[oobga]

Does Broberg even get points anymore? The start of the year he was collecting assists from the bench.

I feel a void. It was fun pointing out broberg getting assists because of a 5 ft pass behind his own net. Or a puck bouncing off him without him knowing while he was down on his knees inside his own blue line.

The good old days.

 

[bellagiobob]

See you in game 1 of the playoffs Wild Bill.
