Around the league part 2

[BigKing]

I don't think I've ever seen Fiala try to show someone up or do something fancy just for the sake of doing it. He's all drive and will, and while he does stupid shit it's not to make himself look better.

Fiala attempted a Michigan this year.

Fiala is flashy. He adds unnecessary stick handles.

Nothing wrong with it.

In some alternate dimension Prohorkin and/or Tkachev ended up bring for the Kings what Kuzmenko has been for Vancouver.

Kaliyev-Lizotte-Tkachev would've been dynamite.

 

[chris kontos]

what happened to hellebucyk? the guy plays like he fell off a cliff. for a former vezina winner he sure is flunking the eye test. could be the result of icing d men like de melo, schmidt, brendan dylan. unfortunate because this team has some beast forwards and the team earlier had the look of a contender

Man Winnipeg is crashing. Based on strength of schedule they should make it, but they might lose their way out. Winning the conference would be quite the advantage this year, I think the #8 team is going to be a substantial step below the other 7.

 

[Fishhead]

Uh oh

Didn't hear anything today, but it's TBL today and CAR on Saturday. Hill was really standing on his head against Florida, they should have had 5 or 6 goals. Big loss if he's out for any period of time, all they have is Quick.

I wouldn't count out Hellybuck in a series tho.

Doesn't matter who they play. If they are firing on all cylinders when playoffs hit tho I think they'll have a good chance against anyone.

If the’re right which at this point is asking alot, jets can beat anybody in a series including the beasts from the east. In fact whoever comes out of the east could be too beat up when they get to the final

Yeah I don't know what the deal is right now. That's a heavy team that's a handful for anyone, lots of talented forwards.

I've only seen a couple of their games lately, one being against us. After they took the early lead against us they just looked kind of apathetic. The other game I saw was even more apathy. It's like they are trying to get by on talent and their core has aged a bit and cant get away with that any more. Maybe they are tuning out their coach? Didn't see last night but it looks like they were playing well, but something goes wrong every game.

Thier d men with the exception of morrisey cant keep up

 

[bouncesonly]

Looks like Boston can clinch with a win in regulation and Buffalo/Ottawa losing in regulation. If Buffalo at least gets a point, they can still play spoiler for Boston clinching.....until their next loss

 

[Bandit]

Derek Forbort is averaging 18 minutes on the best team in the league.

 

[fsanford]

Uh oh

He played okay for awhile tonight then gave up a couple with less than 5 minutes to go. Not watching so not sure if he got hung out to dry

 

[Bandit]

Quick gets the win again.

 

[Little Psycho]

Of course

 

[kingsholygrail]

I think Quick is three wins away from being #2 all time for American goalies?

 

[Jericho111091]

Yeah, I think this should put him at 372

One he just got beat. The 2nd was PP, but he overcommitted and slid across the goal to the guy with the puck who centered to Point, who had a 6x4.

Second goal was tough. Third goal was really bad. Slid outside the crease leaving the net wide open.

 

[Sol]

Seattle lost Ayy

 

[johnjm22]

Quick still came out of the game with a .919 SV% stopping 34 of 37.

To be fair that Kucherov fake shot pass was crazy, bet that scores against any goalie in the league

 

[Mattias]

The Philadelphia Flyers fired general manager Chuck Fletcher.

Will the ownership finally allow a rebuild now?

I'll have to go over to their board. There is probably more rejoicing than a baptist revival over there.

Eyssimont getting dirty too, love it

I was wondering what triggered all those misconducts.
