Around the NHL — Episode XLXVII

[Pierre from Orleans]

Islanders are so bad. 2 points pissed away when we played them.

Ya totally outplayed them and lose, that’s happened a few times. This year.
But that happens sometimes.

They just lost to Chicago in the last minute of the game. Good result for us.

Nice , last I checked was 3 - 3

 

[Tnuoc Alucard]

I wouldn't say it is make or break, exactly.

If they go to an extreme in either way, it could have a significant impact, but if they can tread water, even gain some lower points, they have a more favourable schedule to finish to the season.

It doesn't have the feel of them falling apart, and that win in Raleigh, plus pulling out a W against the Pens should provide some good vibes out West.

I can see Ullmarks leadership (and ability) being a game changer this time, too.

All good points….

 

[Tnuoc Alucard]

Ah that’s adorable - I don’t believe you but chin up kiddo - I just want to make sure you don’t worry or lose heart, there will be plenty of moments still to come in the season where you can roll in with your delightfully unique blend of doom, gloom, pervasive negativity and gaslighting.

Whatever…. I don’t believe you either buddy boy.

I am prepared for meaningful And meaningless games this March… while I’m golfing in Florida

 

[GCK]

After lucking into Gretzky, they lucked into McDrai. Can't think of a franchise that has been so lucky aside from EDM and Pittsburgh. Hope McDrai don't ever win a cup in EDM, but somewhere else.

Quebec/Colorado is the luckiest.

That’s the thing though isn’t it, there’s no reason to believe or disbelieve me.
I’m not here to be a gaslighting contrarian.

 

[SensFactor]

Nice little Sunday

Isles lose
Rangers losing
Columbus lose
Buffalo lose

 

[Gil Gunderson]

Blues blowing their 3-0 lead against the Rangers. 3-2 now.

 

[Ouroboros]

10 losses in a row for Buffalo.

Gretzky was not drafted into the NHL, so I don't know that they lucked into him.

 

[Gil Gunderson]

10 losses in a row for Buffalo.

They swept California and were in a playoff spot before this stretch.

 

[KingAlfie11]

Oh thank you Blues, you made it a little bit more nerve wracking

Rangers are in big trouble... they might just clean house...

Couldn't happen to a nicer person than A. Fox.

lol what’s the story here?

 

[Gil Gunderson]

Ever since that Larry Brooks article…

 

[Big Muddy]

Nice little Sunday

Isles lose
Rangers losing
Columbus lose
Buffalo lose

Awesome!

 

[Sensrule]

Nice little Sunday

Isles lose
Rangers losing
Columbus lose

It's crazy that we've lost to all these teams except the Jackets so far this season.

 

[starling]

I personally cursed the Oilers in 2012 with The Curse of 3 First Overalls in a row. They won't win the Cup while RNH is still on the team. Sorry.

 

[Boud]

They have a lot of guys underperforming right now.

Trochek, Zibanejad, Lafreniere, Kreider and Chytil could all give more than they’ve been giving. These guys will start clicking at some point, or at least some of them.

Panarin is out right now and so is Miller so it doesn’t look pretty.

I think they’ll give us a good run for our money for a wildcard spot. They’ve been playing really bad but at some point they’ll go back to the mean. Not as good as people thought but they’re still a decent team.

 

[Bjornar Moxnes]

lol what’s the story here?

Refused to play for both Calgary and Carolina and has a very elitist attitude.

Is Mika starting to slow down?

Is Mika starting to slow down?

The team is having a bad year. Hard to evaluate an individual’s future at this point.
