Minny beat Washington 2-1 in regulation.
Don't forget that Pittsburgh is #23 at 209 PP opportunities. But narratives!That argument really doesn’t hold water when Tampa has been called for the most penalties in the league (at 306), and Washington isn’t too far behind (at 299).
And as far as being awarded power plays, Tampa is #4 at 244, while Washington is #14 at 221. Carolina is #8 at 232.
Fun fact: The Leafs have been called for the least amount of penalties, but also have been awarded the 2nd least amount.
But but... if they fight, and we fight back, that means it's on.Yeah, Minnesota is also fighting for a playoff spot. We're going to have to fight back. Tomorrow will be fight club at PNC.
I'm glad he's doing well. I don't harbor any ill will when it comes to Ryan. I have an autographed puck from guessing correctly that he'd score the first goal of the game in his first game. He is a great story. At the same time, I don't think any of us have missed him for a second, nor will we.Ok, I’m sorry for barging in about a former cane player, but apparently Ryan hasn’t allowed a 5 on 5 goal against since the all star break.
He’s looking good. Did more on that top line than Monahan over the past month.
Ryan is a good 3rd liner. It's just that Peters tried to make him more than that at times here. But luckily Calgary has more high end options, so Peters doesn't have to ram the square peg into a round hole there.Ok, I’m sorry for barging in about a former cane player, but apparently Ryan hasn’t allowed a 5 on 5 goal against since the all star break.

As bad as Melynk is, and he is bad, he did IIRC save the franchise from both bankruptcy and relocation, because they were really close at one point to leaving Ottawa.
Now I'm not suggesting that Senators fans should be worshipping him for that, but it's very very likely had someone else gotten their hands on them first they would be playing somewhere in the States today, and they would have probably next to no shot at getting another franchise.
It's similar to John Spanos who despite being a total fraud, saved the NY Islanders from relocating (because they were getting close to having one foot out the door in the 90s) by signing that TV deal with what is now known as MSG Network that gave the team significant cash flow.
It’s a fickle market. Combination of fairly cheap and lack of corporate support (the biggest “customer” in Ottawa should be the federal government but there are rules they prevent that).I don't understand how it'd be possible for Canada's main sport to leave the capital of the country. I mean wouldn't that demoralize the entire country? Wouldn't the NHL step in and save it or something?

Because you get forgiven more easily than you get a permission.If you're sorry, why did you do it?
We don't care.
