Utah Supplements?

With the Hurricanes down to their final out, if they’re eliminated then the Bruins are our only chance at a non-asterisk winner this year.

Sigh.

Can the Avs do it again 4-3 Stars late

 

[Hobble]

Are the Avs doing it again? Ugh.

 

[bustamente]

Avs go on the pp, are the Stars going to puke up another one

edit: nope

Colorado - Lucked into Makar, that’s an asterisk win.
Dallas - No state income tax, asterisk.
Edmonton - Rigged lottery for McDavid, asterisk.
Vancouver - Riding an unsustainable lucky shooting percentage, asterisk.
Ranger - Have a number of players who force their way there, that results in an illegitimate win and an asterisk.
Florida - No state income tax, asterisk.

 

[Hobble]

Pretty sure we would have gotten dusted by Dallas too. These two teams are just at another level.

 

[Aggie204]

The Avs are the turd that won’t flush.

Oh, tartar sauce! I forgot the sarcasm emoticon and now my messaging is unclear. Gotta love text-exclusive communication channels.

Nah Carolina has an asterisk too, lucked into Svechnikov and technically Aho. And Boston getting Pasta where they did. Pure luck.

Boston is an original 6 team, so asterisk, sorry.

Jets could have used some of that Neanderthal nastiness

Come on , Jets did throw at least 2 hits in the Avs series!

 

[Adam da bomb]

Colorado and Edmonton, New York are the only teams left that actually get snow.so I’m rooting for them. Not these fake teams like Dallas.

Yeah, but I like those teams so I don’t have to go through great lengths to try to discredit them.

But, I see your point. It’s a shame the Jets didn’t make it through as it’s looking more and more like they’re the only team capable of “legitimately” winning.

So you wanted tnse to take an extra year to come up with the Jets 1980s logo... that's second level shit.

My experience with marketing and focus groups is that 15 months to name the winnipeg jets would have resulted in us cheering the manitoba forks

I don't mind the current logo at all.

I just love the Heritage Jerseys.

If TNSE wants to put the current logo on the Heritage jerseys I'm happy with that.

Hey now, Perfetti had at least two hits in the last game. That he bounced right off isn't his fault, but at least he hit someone. Sort of.

I think the Jets nailed it with their jerseys... except the aviator it was a bit meh

It would have been a big downer to spend the first seasons just cheering for the Winnipegs

[sipowicz]

and the core meaning Austin wonder boy?

 

[Buffdog]

Interesting. Do they go for the "cut out the problem" approach or the "maximum trade value/return" approach?

If it's the former, it would be Marner who might not have a ton of value with one year left at a ridiculous cap hit (maybe asking for a raise) and his playoff performance (though he's been good at the times in the past)

If it's the latter, maybe Nylander? Can't see them moving AM34

 

[sipowicz]

Pretty lame list of names for the Utah NHL team, serioulsy powder. glaciers?

Would go Grizzlies or Blue Bonnets!
