ah I see why it's heavily weighted by expected goals which Toronto generally has little trouble scoring, but also generally has trouble keeping the puck out of their net.

Looks like the Geadreau experiment is off to a real slow start in Columbus.

I know many are a bit worried about our uneven first few games but there are a number of teams with high expectations that have been real slow out of the gate. There is plenty of time to iron out our schemes and get into a rhythm.

Well at least the Jets are ranked about where they should be, maybe its even too high!

 

[Jet]

 

[gojetsgo]

vancouver has blown 2 goal leads in 4 straight games

 

[surixon]

Yet another two goal lead evaporates and ends in defeat for Vancouver.

 

[None]

vancouver has blown 2 goal leads in 4 straight games

JT Miller's been on the ice for 12/18 goals against

 

[Truenorthducky]

I figured I would check out the flames game tonight as all I’ve heard the past month was how Calgary is going to win the Stanley Cup this year.

Lol it's the unexpected goals against that kill them

New stat: uxGA

 

[scelaton]

Fun with small sample sizes:

Guess who is tied for fourth worst worst point % in the league, just below Arizona?

Hint: They've won as many Stanley Cups since 2019 as the Bombers have won Grey Cups.

Feel better about this season yet?

Haha. Coilers are losing to buffalo 3-1. Philly 3-0. Nick Foligno has more goals than Matthews.

I know the Leafs should sort themselves in a few games. But I love seeing them suck.

 

[DeepFrickinValue]

20 years to the day, Coyotes have earned a point in every game playing in Toronto. That has got to be among the greatest streaks in sports.

Ended up 4-2 with Comrie getting the W. nice to see.

When is the media and fans going to start crying ....only 3 PP for the Oilers?
How is McDavid going to score 150 points with only 3 Oiler PPs per game?

 

[Potential]

Ehhhh, their defense is still a tire fire, so they're going to have issues all year long.

Comrie was fantastic tonight.

 

[sipowicz]

Comrie was fantastic tonight.

48 shots, let in 2, .958

 

[surixon]

Ekblad out for the next 8 weeks. Moe is back to icing an AHL caliber defense core.

A very good d man that seems to get hurt every year.

 

[Heldig]

Connor Garland a healthy scratch in Vancouver. Garland would be awesome beside Dubois IMO. 4 more years at $4.95 million. A bit pricey but manageable.

The Canucks need D.

Great to see him keeping on keeping on -- still hearing the echoes of Chevy dropping the ball on that one…

Wasn't it only 3 more games and the Jets would have retained his rights?

 

[Joe Hallenback]

My god Holloway got crunched last night

Oilers getting no scoring outside the big guys
