3 pts system is the best, but the debate might be in OT and penalties +2 pts. to win. If 3 pts system maybe they need to drop OT + penalties. A draw game is a draw 1 pts for both teams like in soccer.
But I like OT + penalties as well so it`s not an easy decision to remove that from the game.

3 points for a regulation win
2 points for OT/SO win
1 point for OT/SO loss
0 points for a regulation loss

No debates. No confusions.

People are overstating the talent he has. He doesn't have good hands or vision. If you don't have those, you're unlikely to be a star player.

The worse thing is, he is even more flawed besides those two points.


Fine he may or may not turn into a star. He could still turn into a pretty good player and at 19 he has plenty of time to turn into that.

I can't see him being a good player based on those lack of attributes. Hence my reasoning with him being a bust. 3rd line player at best imo.
 
3 goals champ. Alex Debringcat in the end of 2nd. in Hawk - Anaheim game. I only look at stats here and not the live game, but he is only 19 years old 2016 CHI, 2nd rd, 9th pk (39th overall) - so it was a surprise and a decent start for him 13 pts in 22 Games in his NHL career - his stats before the game. And after the game 16 pts in 23 G unless he get more pts. in the 3rd. :)

Jacob Trouba get a goal in the Jets game - not sure if they like to move him for Ryan Mc. ;)

FWIW, I like pronouncing Debrincat. De Cat.
 
Also l.o.l. @ Ottawa dropping like a rock.
Matt Duchene 8 games 1 goal -10 - I feel bad for him. It can be difficult to change teams and Brassard notice that last year, but oh boy that some difficult stats to work with on daily basis in a new NHL franchise.
 
I think Philly has a pretty good team. That game vs the Pens last night was a great one to watch. I'm pissed the Pens won but still a great game.
The one game I always like to catch other than Ranger games. Always eventful and usuallly tons of goals. They don't like each other......needless to say.
Saw this last one.....friggin Crosby is a magician with that damned stick. They said he practices that deflection, I mean.....who does that?

similar no goal call on the ice tonight in Boston (vs tampa) as in last nights game with Nash.
 
and the goal is allowed after being called no goal on the ice. Looked awfully similar to last night ugh

Just saw it too, last night was even less alleged interference, Marchand didn’t touch the goalie, but never initiated contact either...no consistency on consecutive nights

I like it very much that the Senators are stumbling. The brand of hockey that Guy Boucher has his team buying into is a chancy one. It's not the '90's and they are not the Devils.
Good to see. I don't really care one way or the other about Duchene's fortune and success, but I am still very happy that the Rangers did not get all giggly-crazy about landing him. I did not want Duchene at all. Granted, he probably would have had better results with the Rangers as he would be surrounded by better players. Still, great great great non-acquisition.

You're not wrong, but the guy gets to play with Karlsson all night long. HOw does he have 1 point in 9? It's laughable.
