Around the NHL — Episode XLXVII

[LiseL]

anyone know what happened to Simmer on Coming in Hot?

He posted on X awhile back he was leaving the show to take care of himself. He's still posting on X however. Would be nice if he came back, I miss him too.

I'm sure the letters N, H and L are in here somewhere

Wild story

That is wild. Feel sorry for those kids...young and away from home knowing if you say no you might be putting your family at risk.

I also don't like Vegas but didn't they pay Lehner his entire salary when they could've paid out just a portion? Or is there more to this story that I'm not aware of or that wasn't what happened?


And a very smart GM who knew how to hoodwink most of the other GMs in the league.

Did they pay out his entire salary? I don't know. As for there being more to the story, rumour and innuendo - but given my bias I'm okay liking them even less than I already did.

And yes, McPhee did take advantage of a situation - and for his sake I hope he never needs another job because I'm sure there are some organizations that won't forget it (or maybe they will...some of those same franchises that should be most pissed also voted to award the franchise and knew the expansion rules ahead of that).

Really this is just me not liking Vegas. Nobody has to agree with any of my reasons, or even agree that they are unlikable.

lol this Oilers-Panthers game is crazy

Nice to see Connor Brown rounding back into his old self, last year was rough for a while but to be expected when coming back from a major injury

And seriously, IMO we are one Reinhart away from being a contender (and replace Perron-Amadio-Hamonic-Forsberg by cheaper/more efficient players). I think he'll win his first Selke this season while scoring 50+ goals.

Giroux - Stutzle - Reinhart
Tkachuk - Norris - Batherson
Greig - Pinto - Gaudette
Gregor - Ostapchuk - Cousins

Too bad he's not from Ottawa (he's from BC) and decided he wouldn't sign anywhere else.

Sabres are a disaster. I hope Ottawa can get Peterka off them, especially if Adams does any panic moves to try and save his job.

I can't even single out what's wrong with Buffalo. Is it the Pegula's? Is it Adams being poor at roster construction? This new batch of young players not good enough?

We don't have anything to get Peterka unless you'd want to sacrifice Yakemchuk?

Oilers are going to suffer the same fate again this year. Their weaknesses are too pronounced.

 

[UglyPuckling]

Panthers win over Oilers.

Dallas over Washington.

Good games.

Agree we need one more skilled impact forward. And one on d as well.

Interesting position on how that went down. I think Bobby said some things that were unacceptable to a large segment of the population as well as CIH. I don't think there was any back stabbing. Please elaborate if I have it wrong.

You are correct, no backstabbing. Bobby f’d himself over with his misogynistic comments on social media. CIH and him mutually parted ways shortly after the incident. Not sure why that constitutes as backstabbing especially since Bobby hasn’t done much of anything else since then

lol

1. There is nothing implying my importance, unless of course you feel my highlighting your gaslighting etc is important work.

2. thats funny & ironic coming from the same guy who thought it was important and impressive to let me know you’ll be golfing in Florida this winter.

Explain what this alleged gaslighting is all about and whom it is aimed at?

Stolarz out 4-6 weeks. Time to see if he's a load bearing Woll (he will not be).


Our next matchup with the Leafs is in 5 weeks.

Woll will be hurt by then

Oof, Panarin and Miller out with Injuries. That's rough.

 

[Wondercarrot]

Not going to lie…you take Panarin out of that lineup and it kind of looks like shit.
