Around the NHL - (2024-25)

Posted in the trade thread also, but it appears (for now, at least) that EP40 has won the Canucks' power struggle

The 26 year old winning the power struggle via the 31 year old makes sense considering they are still a young team.

Kulich with 2 goals tonight and now up to 11 in 37 games. Not bad for a 20 year old. Oh, what could have been...

How many Petterssons do they need?

Just to annoy Johnny "there outta be a law" Ahlers.

My friend who is a Canucks fan just messaged me about what I wanted for Lucas Pettersson

Cronin. Trade Cronin.

Cronin. Trade Cronin.

Absolutely! If they want our Pettersson they’re going to have to take a big cap dump. Cronin it is.

St. Louis has the exact same amount of points as the Ducks and point%. Hopefully they move Fowler to a contender so he can get a chance at a cup. Hate seeing him being stuck on non-playoff team.

No idea where to put this, I thought we had a gaming/fantasy thread but I cannot find it.

Anyhow, I do not have that much free time these days but I long wanted some type of a hockey manager for mobile as that's usually convenient. There is a manager game that I recently found and you can, via community made rosters, have the actual rosters in the game. Just started to play around, looks very nice. Perhaps useful to some:

Am I looking in the wrong place or do we not care enough about the 4 Nations to have a thread?

First 10 minutes last night I thought Canada was going to blow out the Swedes but it turned into a pretty good game.

Regardless of who wins or the lack of more teams, it is pretty cool seeing all the best from these 4 countries playing together. Watching the two Macs and Sid was pretty amazing.

It was pretty awesome to watch, the pace of play in that first period especially was just insane. Such a high level pass by Sid on the opening goal.

Sucks that Leo was healthy scratched though, hopefully the loss will create a shuffle.

Yeah, exactly. Those guys were flying at the start of the game. Just amazing to watch. But I was getting worried it would end up being an embarrassment to the league. Really glad to see it become more competitive.

Given how the game started I was happy Leo wasn't out there during that time. It will be interesting to see how the Swedes proceed from here. I'd say their backs are already to the wall if they want to make the finals. Do they mix it up and let Leo into the lineup or do they just double down on the fact they played much better after the terrible start?

I said before it started I didn't care about it. I turned it on last night because there was nothing else that interested me when I sat down for dinner. It was an exciting game. I'll still probably pretend I don't care about while I casually watch every game.

watch the sequence leading up to sweden's first goal if you want to see doughty get worked like a little bitch

Theo got hurt, looked like a broken wrist to me. Canada has already ruled him out for the tournament. Not allowed to add, so 7th D rotates in for sure (Sanheim) but they aren't bringing in another.

Teemu was there to represent Finland for the opening ceremony along with Mario, Alfredsson and Richter for their respective countries
