Around the NHL 10 - 2022/23

[DRW204]

Hope COL moves on. I want to see a McDavid/Drai vs Mackinnon/Rantanen WCF.

 

[bustamente]

Definitely the Leafs run to the Cup got a little easier but lets not engrave their names on it yet.

 

[TEH FIRST NOEL]

Right now Chevy is putting this game in the archive so he can pull it out as an example of why it is so important to just squeak into the playoffs.

 

[snowkiddin]

Florida is my favourite team for the next couple weeks now

 

[TEH FIRST NOEL]

When the Jets sucked and he was the coach, it was his fault

This year when the Panthers sucked, it was his fault

Now that the Panthers beat the record setting, president trophy winning Bruins, it was in spite of him

Is there a Latin term for "cognitive dissonance"?

care to explain how any of what you just wrote applies to me and/or what I wrote because I hardly said and/or conveyed any of that?

[bustamente]

also don't think krejci was 100%

Definitely, but as they say at this time of the year everyone has something aching.

 

[kanadalainen]

As much as I hate Tkachuk. God I wish someone with that kind of passion played on the Jets.

Agree... I have to agree.

 

[MarkWheeler]

Holy shit, what a choke job. Leafs have to be ecstatic.

Leafs fans thinking they’ve got it easy now against the Panthers, but I think they’re in for a surprise. Glad I don’t have to cheer for Boston, and there’s no doubt who I’m cheering for now.

 

[DRW204]

The difference between Tkachuk and PLD couldn't be more stark. Look at the effort from him keeping that play alive on the OT goal.

I wish we had never won that lottery in 2016 and just quietly drafted Tkachuk at 6.

We don't have a fwd in M. Tkachuks stratosphere.

 

[The Blue Baron]

Go Maurice go.

Bergeron looks astounded, stunned.

He is done. So sad Bruin fans. What player! Bon voyage.

 

[kanadalainen]

The Leafs are going to win the cup

My kids and I just had this conversation as FLA scored the winner.

No hope for that (lets be serious), just a kind of sober consensus.

 

[TEH FIRST NOEL]

Definitely, but as they say at this time of the year everyone has something aching.

yeah, for the jets' players, it was pride.

 

[bustamente]

We don't have a fwd in M. Tkachuks stratosphere.

Underneath all the shenanigans is an extremely talented hockey player

 

[kanadalainen]

Definitely the Leafs run to the Cup got a little easier but lets not engrave their names on it yet.

Please God, let @bustamente be correct.

 

[TEH FIRST NOEL]

We don't have a fwd in M. Tkachuks stratosphere.

maybe, lowry (not so much skill as compared to other aspects like determination, toughness, leadership, resiliency... even though he acquiesced to ole cement legs like a brainwashed scientologist)

 

[snowkiddin]

Florida on a bit of a roll. When you get to the final eight there are no easy series.

 

[Aggie204]

I hope McGroaty is in the same mould as Chucky. Would love to have that on our team. Looks like people here agree.

 

[bustamente]

Please God, let @bustamente be correct.

I would invoke the almighty Lemmy to cast some sort of bad juju but he let me down way to much this year

 

[JetsFan815]

I like Wheeler, but he's a bit of a loser. Having leaders like Tkachuk and Montour is a totally different deal

wheeler is 37. He shouldn't be expected to pull a tkachuk at his age. That should be upto a guy like PLD to rise to that occasion which he didn't.

 

[kanadalainen]

even though he acquiesced to ole cement legs like a brainwashed scientologist)

I would invoke the almighty Lemmy to cast some sort of back juju but he let me down way to much this year

One needs to sprinkle 500 ml of Jack Daniels on the alter when in full invocation.

 

[bustamente]

I wouldn't look past the Panthers if I were the Leafs, Devils, Canes or Rangers if they get that far, all are really good teams

 

[DRW204]

maybe, lowry (not so much skill as compared to other aspects like determination, toughness, leadership, resiliency... even though he acquiesced to ole cement legs like a brainwashed follower)

Nope

 

[TEH FIRST NOEL]

One needs to sprinkle 500 ml of Jack Daniels on the alter when in full invocation.

 

[Finnflash]

If there is anyone that can get into Mathews head it’s his friend Tkachuk.

Will be an interesting series to see this play out

 

[Buffdog]

check out: strawman fallacy while you're at it

I'd be happy to explain

You claimed that it was the players that were responsible for beating the Bruins, not Pomo. Fair enough.

Yet who was blamed for what the players did on the ice here in Winnipeg? PoMo.

So which is it? Is he to be blamed for what the players did here? If so, he's to be credited with what his players did tonight. Or vice versa. You can't have it both ways.

BTW, I'm sure you're familiar with the Tu Quoque Fallacy. AND just because there's a logical fallacy, it doesn't make it untrue
