Around the NHL 2017-18: Stanley Cup Playoffs

[Tob]

Stuff you can't skimp on: Work boots, pastries, and hockey teams. The Sens owner is terrible for hockey in Ottawa.

It hurts the morale of the locker room when the GM is in sell mode. It can't feel good when the owner is trying to save a pretty penny and trading away a productive player for financial considerations.

3-0 Sharks

That Duchene trade gets more and more brutal everyday. That first Ottawa gave up might really bite them soon.

San Jose has 28 f***ing shots ON GOAL and the 2nd period isn't over.

 

[Nickmo82]

Sens just got robbed of a goal. Kind of meaningless when you're down 4, but still.

Did Sens give up 2018 1st rounder? That's looking like a top-10 pick.

They did, but it's top-10 protected I think.

It's lotto protected. They give their 2019 1st in the event they get a Top 10 pick in 2018.

20 years ago - one helluva game. Saw it live. Nuts... Shanny and Sakic tried to mediate. They have different roles these days. Shanny was a rock.

 

[Mac n Gs]

Why was Atkinson a healthy scratch? What did he do to piss Torts off?

Also, that Mackinnon goal against Florida was sick. Weird that a glorified 50 point player is on pace for 96 points this season. Never understood how some people didn't think he was a great player.

 

[Nickmo82]

Kind of a boring night of hockey, if scoreboards are to be believed.

YEESH

I sincerely feel sorry for the Coyotes and of course their fans. I'd like them to get another win as a Christmas present.
It almost brings a tear, but I keep those for the Rangers haha.

YEESH

Eichel and Kane asleep at the wheel.

Arizona needs to become relevant. Lots of Rangers fans there. Panthers are at least competitive as is Carolina now.

You keep the tears for the Rangers?

I thought that with Rick Tochett in charge, they might just see a bump up in scoring and have a different look, for the better in the win-loss columns. It looks like another, even longer season for them.

You keep the tears for the Rangers?

Lately, it's mostly smiles and chuckles, plus I don't get as bent out of shape when the Rangers lose as I used to in years gone by. Even during the first part of this season, I entertained the thought that the Rangers could conceivably not be in the post-season (just a clinical observation wile retaining my usual optomism), and that also was just recognition of how good they have been since the lockout in providing their supporters with reasons to get excited season after season. Luckily, the dark ages of the New York (retirement home) Rangers are kind of a blurry black hole to me now

 

[will1066]

I don't get bent out of shape after losses because 1) I'm older and wiser and 2) I kinda expect it. haha

 

[Nickmo82]

Ottawa tailspin still in effect. Playing pretty damn poorly. Everybody looks frustrated and just a bit... sad.

So, they'll bring their A game against us no doubt. We'll make them look godly.

 

[Ori]

Buffalo scored on PP 3-0 wow - Ottawa is struggling for sure.

 

[Matt Rentfree]

Kings beating on everyone like a red headed stepchild except the team we need them to beat.

 

[Bob Richards]

Ottawa rocking that 1-9-2 in their last 12 games.

They've also been shut out in 3 of their last 4 games and have yet to score tonight.

 

[will1066]

Brayden Point and Oskar Sundqvist just high sticked each other for coincidental minors. Point bleeding profusely, however.

 

[Raspewtin]

I hope Ottawa suffers for eternity.

Any team that plays the way they do deserves nothing but on ice misery.
