Around the League - PLAYOFFS!?

[Evilhomer]

Blues win again. Another team that's surprising a lot of people but what they lack in talent they make up for by working hard.

It's also systems play. Well-organized, hard-working teams are not easy to beat. The best example is pretty much any Barry Trotz-coached team.

I see Soderblom is back to being a potato as expected.

 

[Evilhomer]

Not that I think much of them, but is Ottawa ever going to play again?

Leafs love to make nobodies look good. Can't wait for Jarry's next game where he'll give up 5 goals on 4 shots.

 

[Evilhomer]

How about those Hurricanes?

 

[HolyCrap]

How about those Hurricanes?

Playing a lot like the Leafs.

 

[PROUD PAPA]

Canes changed things around in a hurry.
Too bad for Merzlikins, hes played well.

 

[HolyCrap]

Playing a lot like the Leafs.

I take that back. They may win this now. Hahahah.

 

[Evilhomer]

Damn, good on them. That is a solid comeback.

 

[BallardEra]

Nice choke job from the Jackets.

Jarry's been pretty good this year. He is top ten in both GAA and save %.

From what I gather from Pit fans is he is poor in the playoffs

Yep, and NO heroic hat trick from an obscure no-name Hawks player.

The Hawks can only get up to play real hockey against our Leafs. Beating our Leafs 2 times really doesn't hurt their lottery chances.

So, the Hawks are back to being bottom feeders extraordinaire.

Beating a garbage team in regulation. Must be nice.

The issue with Jarry is that he is wildly inconsistent. Decent stretches of being good, and then equally long stretches of being one of the worst goalies in the league. When that happens I always think that it is in the guy's head rather than his body. All of the talent in the world, but sometimes the brain doesn't cooperate. We have seen that same thing here with Jack Campbell.

 

[PROUD PAPA]

I hope a Pred lays a beating on Pionk in the 3rd.
Can't stand that guy.

 

[BallardEra]

7 points in the last 4 periods for McDavid.

Time for Matthews or Marner to do the same this week

Great players go on streaks. Matthews and Marner will, as well (Matthews already has, but apparently everyone has already forgotten that).

 

[BallardEra]

Another point for McDavid. He’s coming for the Art Ross.

 

[Seath The Scaleless]

Oilers are too good for the bottom five thankfully. Win enough to barely miss the playoffs

They’ll find a way to get a WC spot.

9 points in the last 2 games for McDavid.

 

[Dragao6]

9 pts in last 3 games for 97
For those that love multiple points vs weak opposition to boost stats

 

[Metroid]

7-2 Oilers and still stacking draiatile and Mcdavid on a 4 on 4 lol

 

[3blizzard4]

Oilers starting to find their mojo.

6 points back of Seattle with 2 games in hand. A bunch of crap .500 teams fighting for the last wild card spot in the west. Ugh.
