3/10 widemans

Florida has all the momentum because boston has been on the PK for half the game.

4 PPs through 2 periods.

Something EDM rarely sees

I was going to ask what the analytics show because the Broberg-Faulk pairing has been struggling with the low to high play by Seattle.

Not pretty.

Philip Broberg - Summary - Natural Stat Trick

It’s like we get penalized by the league for our PP being to good.

 

[CanadasTeam99]

BOS getting whooped 6-2

 

[Frank the Tank]

Looking at the ice in Florida tonight you realize how much they purposely made it crappy for Game 7 after the Oilers torched them on the transition for Games 4-6. It's still not great, but players can at least pivot and puck isn't bouncing everywhere.

 

[BlackDogg]

The Utah Hawks are underway.

 

[CantHaveTkachev]

the Utah arena is awful...reminds me of when the Isles playing in Brooklyn

 

[CanadasTeam99]

Mormons strike first

 

[5 Mins 4 Ftg]

Guenther is gonna have a huge year.

It’s this year only. They are doing a 900M renovation to the rink over the next few years.

 

[CanadasTeam99]

I don't know. I like what I see in Durzi on Utah

 

[5 Mins 4 Ftg]

Luke Richardson better enjoy coaching his last year in Chicago.

 

[5 Mins 4 Ftg]

Leah Hextall still looks like Lloyd Christmas.

I hate the fact that Utah hockey team's jersey and name are so utterly uninspired. Utah is a beautiful state filled with amazing landscapes and diverse wild life. So many cool potential names and designs they could of chosen from in the off season.

 

[CanadasTeam99]

Jeez CHI with 1 shot on net and the period is almost over

Is Taylor Hall healthy now? Haven't heard his name

They will rebrand in the off-season, so there's still the potential for them to do that.

 

[CanadasTeam99]

I know he is very good, but I still laugh at people who were comparing Bedard to McDavid

 

[CanadasTeam99]

I forgot Bertuzzi signed with CHI lol. They all look so lifeless

 

[McShogun99]

I know he is very good, but I still laugh at people who were comparing Bedard to McDavid

After his rookie season I doubt he’s anywhere close to Mcdavid. He wasnt even PPG in his rookie season when scoring is higher then in Mcdavids rookie season.

 

[K1984]

Brobergs game today is just like in the playoffs.

Get absolutely dominated in every metric, get a goal and apparently it cancels it out

Wasn’t even a good shot, just a lucky goal like his playoff goals

The narrative that he was good in the Finals is one of the more annoying that I’ve heard around here and in hockey talk generally.

He stunk in the Finals, straight up. Simply arguably (and emphasize arguably) being better than Ceci is enough to put him on some sort of pedestal somehow. The guy has played around 5 good games in the NHL total. Maybe.

Empty seats all over the place for a teams first ever home game. Why did they move to Utah again?

 

[RipsADrive]

An Alberta election is 3 years away. Why is a smear piece airing twice a commercial break? It's maddening.

I'd even take a Wrapped in Red event commercial at this point.

Billionaire owner that is willing to spend the big money to join the club and increase franchise values. Bonus points that he does not nickel and dime every vendor. Plus SLC secured the Winter Olympics so significant public money will be used to upgrade the arena.

Years ago I was at a friends house and he mutes every commercial break. It’s a brilliant tactic that I’ve adopted ever since.

Almost every time anyone describes a commercial they hate I usually have no idea what they’re talking about. It’s bliss.
