At least when we lost 7-0 it was against the Bruins. Yikes Chi has just 48 pts. How far they have fallen.

Feels weird that the Kings play the Blackhawks for the first time this season at the end of the month.

Bit of the straight flush in scores tonight. Teams scored 9-8-7-6-5 goals in their wins. The snowman the Hawks put up on the Ducks was pretty nice. Gibson pulled again, gave up 6 goals on 8 shots. Worst quote of the night...Ahlers, " Don't look now, the Ducks are only down by 3" and then the Hawks scored again.

Didn't realize Chicago was so bad. I thought with their superstar Dominik Kubalik, they'd be unstoppable. Or at least that's what one individual around here was making it sound like.

Can anyone explain why TNT would have 3 Canadian teams on their double header?

Do they have no say in scheduling with as much as they pay?

Why is that bad?

 

[Herby]

Why is that bad?

Because normally you get the best ratings from local markets. It’s why for years great hockey markets like Chicago and Pittsburgh were on so much.

They don’t get that with Canadien teams. Although I guess the Habs might draw pretty well.

I feel like it's groundhog day with the migration...

Great night, Vegas losing and Vancouver only getting a point. Winnipeg was already a longshot but tonight's loss really put a dent in what little hopes they had. They would need to go 18-5 down the stretch to hit 98 points to have a good shot. Same with Anaheim, they need to go at least 17-5 to hit 97 points.

It's down to 10 teams in the west with a shot for sure. It's looking more and more like both WC will come from the Central, Dallas is playing well and Nashville has turned it around.

Can HF f***ing knock it off?

No kidding. I didn’t think they could make the site’s UI worse, but they managed to!

I’m this close to starting my own hockey community.

Um wow I’m so lost finding threads now, this’ll take some time getting used to.

Axl, Fro and Goldenbear will be happy, all the negativity in the Thursday GDT has been vanquished like Thanos snapping his fingers.

I like the update because it’s way smoother to browse and post from mobile (Atleast for me)

Some things are better, some things are significantly worse. It takes twice as long to get to your notifications and the notification bubble is cut off.

Emojis don’t work (although they were supposed to).

Dark mode still has neon red icons, making it nearly unreadable.
Just a few things I’ve noticed that are worse so far.

 

[Docgonzo]

Once I get used to it’ll be ok, as long as that random refresh glitch is gone I’m happy. Tired of typing stuff out 3-4 times only to just give up.

I wish Kyle Clifford would run me through the boards, right in the numbers.

What a happy looking fellow.

 

[Raccoon Jesus]

Surprisingly, Cliffy doesn't look like he's aged much lately.

You're right, he's looked 38 since the day he was drafted.

18 year old Cole Sillinger who played in the USHL last year nets the hat trick vs Vegas.

Take those lies back. Rookies are not allowed to do that.

He’s such a f***stick.

Eichel loses again.

 

[Omni Owl]

At least Vegas keeps shitting the bed, they've got injury bug just like us.

Was at the Herritage Classic today and my goodness, the Leafs need help everywhere. Very intersted to see how they approach the deadline.

Now, how the f*** do you log out of this site on iPhone? Jeebus. Not a fan of the revamp but I’m sure I’ll get used to it.

Yeah, tonight a good night for rookies.

Matt Boldy scored his 12th of the season and now has 12-12-24 in 27 games at age 20

Cole Caufield scored in OT and had another multi-point game and now has 8-9-17 in 14 games since the coaching change. Age 21

Peyton Krebs 2 goals, up to 12 points in 25 games. 6 in his last 10. Age 21

Sillinger hat-trick. 11 goals, 21 points as an 18 year old.

Tomasino scored his 9th and added an assist for Nashville and is getting noticeably better with each game. Now has 8 points in his last 10 games. Age 20.

But expecting NHL production from young players is being unreasonable.
