Honestly, I don't mind this. All of the drama makes up for the years where they eliminated the Pens in the playoffs. If that series from 2016 was a Netflix special, then this would be a full season.

Speaking of drama it's gonna be hilarious when the Canucks keep a 32yr old JT Miller who is basically the lockerroom version of Tortorella over the 26yr old Elias Pettersson because of the rift between the two. :laugh: Classic dumb guy JR move, you can see it from 10 miles away.

JT has a full NMC which he supposedly has said he intends to use if need be.
EP has 1 but it doesn't kick in until next year.

The out-of-town schedule was almost nearly perfect for us tonight. Not that we deserve it, but we could still be in a playoff spot if we win tomorrow. We probably won't win tomorrow, though. We play Florida, who played tonight, which is good, but they lost in regulation (the one game that didn't go our way), which is bad.

Edit: I'm wrong. Ottawa also plays tomorrow, against St. Louis. So we need to win our game and also have Ottawa lose in regulation. With that said, Ottawa will be tired against a rested St. Louis team, so them losing is possible.

Also, Tampa lost to San Jose in regulation, and Tampa has a brutal schedule this month. They might find themselves in a surprise slide down the standings.

The Seas have three(!) games at hand on the Pens.

What a dirtbag


NHL officiating is so cool


Winter Classic with awful ratings. I was looking for it on New Year’s Day and didn’t realize it had happened the day before.

I wish they would just make the all star game the winter classic.

Yeah, the Winter Classic kinda lost it's luster about a decade ago. :laugh:
 
NHL.com just did their quarter-century team for Seattle, and guess what... all of them are still playing for the Kraken! Legendary!

If Malkin was on Seattle he still wouldn't make it

Spencer Carbury doesn't f*** around. Seravalli mentioned one of his quotes. Paraphrasing here, but he wants his players to show that their record early on wasn't them getting the bounces.

Since Dec. 1 ^
Going into the season, I would have expected 4 of those teams to be in the top 10 in GF/G. A few in the top 5.

Not sure even a savant could accurately predict things regularly in this league. We're #4 btw. Columbus #5 lol
