Around the League 47: Vancouver Collects All The Petterssons

[LakeLivin]

Maybe I'm misremembering but because the NHL came to Raleigh on somewhat short notice, the locker room blueprints had to be redrawn.

Personally and this is just my opinion but our arena could use those upgrades they've been wanting. I wish the upper deck for instance wasn't so cramped but it is what it is.

Also, the home locker rooms could use an upgrade. Honestly thought after Dundon bought the team that would be the first thing done.



Wasn't there a "USA Chivas" that played in LA? I'm not familiar with this LAFC club

I wouldn't bet my house on it, but my recollection is that the last time they made upgrades to the home locker room they were limited by what they could do because there is some kind of empty space over it that they want to convert to usable space. They couldn't do it within that renovation budget but made it part of the plans for next (upcoming) bigger renovation.

Sounds like looking back on it, maybe should have made the arena bigger. Oh well

Jim Montgomery wasn't the problem in Boston. I'm not sure Cassidy was either.

Boston’s problem is the same as it’s been for years. Their star players keep getting older and, due to the sustained success they had in the past, they don’t have the prospect pool nor the assets to effectively transition between aging vets and the next wave of talent.

Blues and Hawks go to a 10 round shootout, but more importantly, TT is 3/3 in shootouts this year.

Where the f*** was that with us?

His second goal for the Wild that game. Had one earlier where a shot going well wide bounced off him into his net.

I'm glad Tulsky didn't give TDA an extension this past offseason and went elsewhere for roster help. I appreciate TDAs time here in 2021-22 but he sucked last year and it looks like he isn't doing well with NYI so far.

On another note, those Wild jerseys are awful. That shade of green with the yellow is obnoxiously bad. They look like if Subway sponsored a team. Yes I know it's the old North Stars colors but I don't care, it's ugly.

I could not possibly disagree more about those green jerseys they are incredible

Actually, TDA has been pretty good for the Islanders. He's still iffy defensively, but his offense is really helping them. They had won like 8 of their last 10 after all.

those are very close to the jerseys I make in NHL for my buddies and I to use on our online team

forest green/electric yellow is my combo but you really can’t miss with any version of those two colors together

Hawks don't have Jeff Daniels as the power play coach?

 

[Borsig]

yeah TDA isnt bad for the isles really, for what he is. But damn THAT might be one of the dumbest things Ive seen someone do in a while

Well, we will have to settle our differences in a Bojangles parking lot.

I prefer a darker green myself, but as a Clarkson grad I really can't complain about any combo of green and gold.

That is not the reason why, lol. It's because they've had terrible drafting, made terrible rental trades giving away a lot of picks, and signed some guys to terrible contracts that they've needed to attach picks to to get rid of. 2015 draft sunk them. But yeah they should've fired Nealy/Sweeney instead of those 2 coaches as their front ofifce is the real problem.
