Around the NHL 10 - 2022/23

[DRW204]

Nice stat

thnx

just looking at some of the stats.

defining a blow-out win as 4+ goals in margin of victory

Jets are t-3rd with 10 wins of the sort (WSH and SEA also with 10). Dallas has 12. and Boston unsurprisingly has 13. CGY has 6.

Going the other way now. a blow-out loss 4+ goals in margin of a loss. the most are your typical bottom-feeders/tank for Berard teams.

BOS has the least with 0 losses of 4+ goals.
CGY (tied for 2nd w/ NYR, NJD, DAL) has 2 Ls of 4+ goals. We handed 1 of NJDs the other night
WPG has 4.

not sure if 4 is to high of a benchmark

You mean where they played three tanking teams in a row (aka ‘an easy schedule’), yet were trailing in all three in the third period, and only got two miracles (instead of three) to go with their other 47 loser points?

Yep... if the Jets had those results and then lost to a team in in the Bedard sweepstakes while they were fighting for your playoffs lives on the outside looking in, I'd write the Jets off too.

To continue my “A New Hope” metaphor with the Wedge “stay on target!” meme, here’s hoping that tomorrow we play the role of Luke and follow up on Wedge’s assist and plow that torpedo down Calgary’a gullet like they were a womprat down on Tattooine

One can never read the word "womprat" and not smile.

Watching Tim and Friend on Sportsnet

Since the Ekholm trade they’re 14-2-1

One of the losses was to us

Even then, their loss was to Jack Campbell more than anything.

Lol, good point; but a win’s a win

Only if the win-o-meter says so!

First NHL goal for ex-Jet Luoto, forgot about him

Who?

What a gong show in Phoenix. Will this ever end?

 

[blueandgoldguy]

Nashville is gonna win tonight. I think they are also in control of their own destiny.l. If they win out, they will make the playoffs.

 

[Hobble]

Nashville and Calgary deserve a chance at the playoffs. Winnipeg deserves to hang a banner for most epic collapse in history.

It is amazing how good Saros is playing tonight.

He actually got fooled by a shot by Burns from outside of the blueline, Canes were still in the zone though, Preds EN goal ends the game

Because other under performing bubble teams are more deserving? Going into the season many pundits had Calgary as easy division winners and now they are scrapping for the final wildcard spot. Seems pretty underwhelming to me.

 

[bustamente]

Predators, Flames and Jets are going to battle it out in the last week of the season.

 

[White Out 902]

I don't want to be mean to people I don't personally know, but there are some, actually every Flames fan I can see online seems to be hoping for the Nashville Predators to win today and saturday. I know that might confuse some of you, because, the Predators have a better points percentage and have been playing better than both the flames and jets lately. You might wonder.. White Out, why would Flames fans cheer for the Predators to beat the hurricanes in the east? Well silly it's because the Flames fans want the Predators to be extra confident and pumped up to play The Jets. Who do the Predators play next? The flames.

It really does feel like sometimes Flames fans are the Senators fans of the West. Clueless and mind boggling stuff. Talk about spitting in the face of karma

 

[WolfgangPuck]

East. Panthers ,NyI, Pens currently 89 , 89 and 88 points battling for two wildcard spots
West. Jets, Flames,Preds. Currently 89, 89 and 88 points battling for one wild card spot.

Jets only win if the opponent lays down, and I don't see that happening in these final 4

 

[bustamente]

Every forward playing for the Predators tonight and pretty well the last few weeks with the exception of Sissons and Trenin make under a million dollars per player

 

[Zippity]

Winnipegger Cody Glass will seal the deal at their next game

 

[voyageur]

Brendan Montour with a 4 point night tonight moves into a tie for 4th with Josh Morrissey and Adam Fox in scoring among defensemen, with 71 points on the season. Not much Norris talk with him, but he's been great for Paul Maurice this year, and my hockey pool.

San Jose has been lying down for awhile, the problem is the Jets have been tripping over them.

Not sure the Preds have been underperforming, given their roster.

 

[None]

Not sure the Preds have been underperforming, given their roster.

Basically an AHL team, I think I read that they had a roster that wouldn't have been eligible to play in the preseason the other day? Not enough players that were in the NHL last year.
