Around the NHL 10 - 2022/23

[bustamente]

It's tough to sweep a team, let's face it the Leafs aren't a team of scrubs, but to come back to win 4 straight is tough and would require a total collapse by the Panthers

 

[snowkiddin]

I so badly wanted a sweep. F*** off Toronto.

I’m hoping they force 7 only to lose now

Now we have to endure two more days hearing about the miracle Leafs.

 

[Guffman]

Not too upset that the Leafs won. Would love to see the Panthers deliver a 5-1 slap down in Toronto just to listen to the sweet gales of howls and booing from their fans.

 

[Ducky10]

I swear to god if McLean refers to the “core 4” one more time I’m punching my television.

You should just order the new TV now to get ahead of it.

Panel talking about Marner’s “hits” tonight

 

[nobody imp0rtant]

If they just stick together as a team, believe in themselves, take it one shift, one period, one game at a time, and give 110%, Toronto can do this. Team of destiny, am I right?

Or not. They're doomed.

I love being bipolar. I hate being bipolar.

He is quite irritating, and his obsequious quotient is tinged with a spec of pompous look-down-the-nose je n'est ce quoi.

You mean the ones he took to the face by Tkachuk at the end of the game, and then beaking to the ref

This would be so sweet

 

[Cnile]

He is quite irritating.

He’s like the plastic tee label fastener in a new garment that constantly scratches your skin because some moron at the plant affixed in such a way that you could never remove 100% of it without wrecking the garment in question.
It never ever ever doesn’t stop irritating you.

You have to admit this is a self inflicted wound unless someone has you tied up with Sports Net on with no ability to mute.

 

[roccerfeller]

Hoping for Whitecloud to score again tonight and maybe ESPN can apologize live on air

 

[DRW204]

EDM pp just to good.

 

[bustamente]

F*** Vegas down 2 early, Hill in net tonight

 

[Ducky10]

Fair enough, I was caught offguard and he dropped it like 3 times before I could find the remote!

 

[bustamente]

Oilers hitting everything in sight F*** Vegas responding with stick work, this one could get nasty if the score gets really slanted.

 

[ps241]

Both series in the west and one in the East are so maniacal. Teams taking turns running up the scores on each other in a string of blow outs??

 

[JetsFan815]

Ken Holland gets bashed around as a "dinosaur" but he has built a great team. The team had so many holes outside of McDrai/RNH (no other top-6 wingers, no depth scoring, weak D). He has managed to add Kane, Hyman, Kostin, Ekholm to this group while giving up basically nothing of value and elevated Bouchard to the PP role by phasing out and eventualy moving Barrie. He is also vindicated with Puljujarvi who has shown himself to be not that great on another team.

Goaltending is still a hole but vastly improved team overall.

 

[GNP]

Oilers really putting the wood to Vegas. I think they win this series. Be great to see a Canadian team win the Cup, although I understand that patriotism on this board is greatly trumped by Oiler hate.

I have also been very impressed with what Ken Holland has done. Lot to be said about wisdom and experience.

If you think we (CDN's hating each others hockey) have hate you should see some of the US based cities hatred. NJ vs NYR anyone? Minny vs. Dallas? Boston vs Anyone?

 

[Aggie204]

F—k Vegas, and I hope the Krackheads smash the Coilers next round.

I so badly wanted a sweep. F*** off Toronto.

The sweep would’ve been *chefs kiss*, But I think the Laffs losing at home is much sweeter.

It’s a Double Dutch Rudder. Between TSN and Laffs

Agreed re: Holland. Oilers would be crap without him he's done a good job. I feel like Holland has shown he can build a competitive team everywhere he's been and he's done very well building this group bit by bit every year, tweaking and fine tuning

Regarding patriotism; It's only patriotic to support the national team

Ain't a single hint of red or white on those neon orange turd sweaters
