Around the NHL 2023-24

[Anaheim4ever]

Byfield is playing really good, looking close to the player they were expecting at draft.

Mctavish lvl right now

I expected improvement from him.
Last year his shooting% was way too low for him to be that snakebitten forever.
Granted his strength is in playmaking but he was so snakebitten last year that he's due for goals to start going in.

Quinn Hughes is off to a sensational start and is the Norris Trophy favorite right now.

That family is crazy lol

As of right now I don’t think it’s crazy to put him as a finalist for mvp

With McDrai that is a crime… even if there is some schadenfreude.

I complained about this franchise more often than I should have, and I kind of feel bad for McJesus and Drai (and Luca Münzenberger, whose twin brothers were students of mine)...but oh boy, do I look forward to McJesus and Drai bailing as soon as their contracts are up. This franchise is probably an even worse disaster than Arizona or Chicago, especially with the ridiculous amount of absolute high-end picks they were gifted including a generational player and a high-end elite center that could very well be one of the top-30 centers of all time once everything is said and done.

 

[Lord Flashheart]

Yeeeah, Sharks are like...tragically depressing.

They're so bad it's difficult for me to enjoy it.

 

[dracom]

looks like another lawsuit for Chicago with another player accusing Aldrich of sexual harassment. Absolutely insane that Chicago got no punishment for this shit and was gifted Bedard. What a horrible franchise.

And Ottawa lost a first for the Dadonov debacle.

And Ottawa lost a first for the Dadonov debacle.

and arizona lost a 1st for having prospects work out. absolutely pathetic.

I didn't realize their mom was an Olympic ice hockey player, too.

NHL clearly has its favorite teams and the ones it doesn't care about. They don't even pretend to hide it. If they hate you, nothing will go your way (refs, punishment, etc), if they love you everything goes your way. Teams like Chitcago gets rewarded for far worse.

The Jackets are having one of those 2022 Ducks games right now.

Now they're having a 23 Ducks game lol

 

[TheGoodShepard1]

The Campbell/Skinner tandem might go down as one of the worst in NHL history. Oilers cannot get a save.

 

[jiggsawpuzzle35]

God damn, I love these Pavel Bure era Canucks jersey. Can’t believe how bad the Oilers are even after they were gifted a goal on an obvious interference call.

 

[ScarTroy]

Frustration setting in for the oilers bad, McDavid is starting to goon it up a bit.

Oil coach got thrown out of the game by the refs as well

Canucks single handedly sending the Oil to the Shadow Realm.

 

[Terry Yake]

mcdavid needs to demand a trade already. that franchise is going nowhere

 

[Ducksforcup]

Yeah Oilers are free falling...just not a lot of positive things in Alberta these days from an NHL perspective.

 

[TheGoodShepard1]

Draisaitl’s got the first move. He’s up at the end of 2025, and you’ve gotta wonder where his head’s at right now regarding an extension

I wonder if the coach gets a $25,000 fine for getting thrown out of the game.

Vancouver has 2 of the top 15 players in the league. They finally look ready to take a step

 

[Anaheim4ever]

Vancouver has 2 of the top 15 players in the league. They finally look ready to take a step

and their 3rd best player is JT Miller who's been a PPG+ player the past 2 seasons and looks to be doing it a 3rd year in a row. 99 points 2 years ago as well. If he plays another 8 years he has a chance at 1000 career points.

 

[TheGoodShepard1]

The Oilers GDT edited a gif of Woodcroft begging not to be fired and score more goals, that was great.

I shouldn't, but I'm rooting hard for the Sharks on Thursday night just to see the nuclear meltdown over there

what a sad state of affairs in SJ. their arena is completely empty
