Around the NHL 2024-2025

  • We sincerely apologize for the extended downtime. Our hosting provider, XenForo Cloud, encountered a major issue with their backup system, which unfortunately resulted in the loss of some critical data from the past year.

    What This Means for You:

    • If you created an account after March 2024, it no longer exists. You will need to sign up again to access the forum.
    • If you registered before March 2024 but changed your email, username, or password in the past year, those changes were lost. You’ll need to update your account details manually once you're logged in.
    • Threads and posts created within the last year have been restored.

    Our team is working with Xenforo Cloud to recover data using backups, sitemaps, and other available resources. We know this is frustrating, and we deeply regret the impact on our community. We are taking steps with Xenforo Cloud to ensure this never happens again. This is work in progress. Thank you for your patience and support as we work through this.

Isles f***ed the Blues.

Kadri scores in OT and Calgary is now only two points back with 2 games in hand. They control their own destiny and have a pretty mixed schedule remaining with a lot of games with San Jose and Anaheim remaining.

Calgary has a pretty brutal run of good teams and they're needing a lot of late magic to hold on against some pretty pedestrian clubs this week.

Tough games remaining: Dallas, Edmonton, Colorado, Utah, Vegas 2x, Minnesota, Los Angeles.

Light games remaining: Seattle (they're playing the best hockey of their season right now), Anaheim (also not quitting), San Jose 2x.

Yeah Anaheim is playing better. Might be wishful thinking but I wouldn't be surprised to see them split the two games left they have with Calgary
 
Devils are terrible. Pissed away wins now against both Calgary and Vancouver. They might miss playoffs.
According to MoneyPuck, the Devils have a 91.8% chance of making it. Likely not enough time for their collapse but they're legitimately playing like one of the worst teams in the NHL right now.

You've got Keefe calling out players too. Nasty vibes there in Newark.
 
I wonder how many d-man contracts around the league are better than Parayko? We should consider ourselves fortunate we got him at that price when we did.

Chychrun may well end up being worth that much but it would make me nervous.
I liked him as a potential solution/target a few years ago when you could get 3 seasons of great contractual value and we were thin at LD.

But with Broberg as a long-term asset, Fowler as a short-term asset, and the prospect pipeline on our left side, I'm extremely content not having Chychrun at that price point. He's been really good for Washington and I think there is a good chance that he is valuable to them at that price point. But I'm not at all disappointed that he didn't reach UFA for us to try and lure him on a 7 year deal.

Yeah, I'm Chych-ed out on him. But good for him and the Caps that it's been working so well this year.

Kadri is such a bitch. He is all for sucker punching Montour but completely turtles when Montour decides to get serious and starts rag dolling him
