Rangers are awful to watch

Has Lavvy always been a trapper? For some reason I thought he was considered an offensive genius

be a sponsor, $8 and no ads

edit - looks like it went up to $12 ..... https://forums.hfboards.com/account/upgrades

It's well worth the money to spend once a year for the amount of time I spend here. And it supports the boards.

Severson benched the whole third period tonight

Meier as well

No idea where to put this.... but this site is unusable at the moment. I keep getting a pop up telling me I am using an ad blocker ... it pops up after every function I do on this site.

If it's this pop up or normal pop up ads I have to choose from here .. then I am out.

This is the THE reason I haven’t been here much. It’s awful.

Didn’t even think about being a sponsor hmmmm

It's $12. Do the right thing. I don't ever see an ad. Ever. In that case it's better than The Athletic which promised no ads and now has them.

Yup. I was annoyed always having to deal with the add bs, happy I paid and never looked back

Evander Kane jokes about Oilers' 0-2 start: 'Sky is falling'

At least one person in Edmonton Oilers nation is staying lighthearted despite the team's less-than-inspiring 0-2 start to the 2023-24 campaign. "We're dead last in the league - 32. Sky is falling," winger Evander Kane joked Monday, per TSN. "Trust me, I see it; I've been around town. But I...

I'm seeing a lot of Leafs fans complaining about their team defense, and I'm just sitting here with my surprised Pikachu face. They tried to overcorrect their toughness issues, but created a whole lot more defensive issues. You don't win in the playoffs with subpar defense, so I honestly think they're a fair bit worse than last year, especially the team they iced post TDL.

The Leafs will do what the Leafs have done for most of Matthews' tenure -- be an excellent regular season team that struggles to make headway in the playoffs for a variety of reasons. Bringing in Bertuzzi and Domi certainly upped team "toughness".....at the expense of team defense. Bringing in Klingberg helped their PP.....at the expense of team defense. Bringing in Reaves was just foolish

At some point McCabe and Giordano are going to fall off a cliff....and that point may have already come.

Leafs gonna Leaf.

I actually liked most of their additions at the TDL. I thought the O'Reilly trade was especially good. They could've made a run. They played Florida well, but losing their starter and going against a scorching hot goalie sealed their fate.

What is NJD doing? Failed offseason. Can't even be .500 by the third game of the season.

Their problem is they still have 1.6mil in cap space they didn't use.

Hmm. It appears the Sens are good.

It appears all of the teams around us in the Atlantic have improved. It will not be a waltz into the playoffs this year

Hmm. It appears the Sens are good.

They’ve been missing one of their best players for a year. He came back and potted two tonight.

Yup and still missing Pinto.

They do...but.. Washington is bad

It’s true.

Still…don’t need to see their backup posting a save percentage it takes UPL three starts to reach if you add them together.
