Around the NHL 2024 25

  • 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 2025 light and dark themes were lost, so we are rebuilding them. Light theme is currently available, but work in progress

    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.

If we're a true championship team, we shouldn't be talking about ducking teams in the first round

I'd love to get revenge on the Avs and knock them out if we happen to fall to 2nd in the central

If we can't beat them, we ARE frauds

I'd trade in a chance to glut our vengeance for a 1.2x bump to our chances of winning the cup. We can get our revenge on Colorado in the second round after Dallas puts them through hell and we dust off the lesser of two weevils in the WC2 spot.

I hear you but playing devils advocate one of the things that hurt Dallas last year was they had to play Vegas in the first round and it was a war of a series then they got the Avs in another tough series and they seemed to run out of gas a bit vs the Oilers in the final 4. No matter what the NHL playoffs are going to be tough and I would prefer to get the last wild card opponent in the first round if we earn that right.

No scared of anyone but just pacing ourselves a bit if possible :naughty:

Yes. Playoffs are such a slog, you don't want to start with a series that drains you physically and emotionally.

First round of the playoffs is always a crap shoot, no shame in wanting the supposed easiest matchup and disposing them as quickly as possible.
Agreed. How we forget how awesome that NSH series was in the second round of 2017-18 playoffs, only to leave us battered and with relatively little in the tank when we faced the F*ck Knights and a hot Fleury.
 
Get the best possible placing for the playoffs is why you play a tough and grueling 82 game season, last year has no relevance on what the Jets do in the playoffs this year, winning the division and conference might well be the key to having success this year.
 
Don't sleep on the Utah HC for that final WC spot.
St. Louis has an easy schedule this month. They might be the best of the rest. Seattle is playing spoiler for a lot of teams right now. I sure expected them to be better. But the teams who won on July 1st didn't produce winning results.
