Around the NHL - Part XLII - (2023-24 Season edition)

I feel like Arizona is Nashville's Columbus. They bled goals against when they played them all season. Look at the scores.

 

[LOFIN]

Looking at the Devils boards, are those fools still believing they can make the playoffs? lmao

They are a delusional lot. They only have to pass 5 teams and win every one of their remaining games, lol.

So who do we root for now? WSH or DET? If the Rangers clinch the #1 spot in the east, do we want WSH or DET in round 1? I hope NYI or NJD don't make it into WC2.

I think the ideal scenario would be the Caps passing Philly so that we get them in round one. They are an annoying team but they lack the high end talent and goaltending to win a playoff series.

 

[redwhiteandblue]

The Jets are annoying me. Shot their load in their Stanley Cup against us and have been garbage ever since.

This sounds like someone who bet the Jets a couple times

Right now Detroit looks like a bottom 5 team in the NHL. Now watch they will go and win the next 4 out of 5 games lol.
Lindgren (the other one) is by far the best goalie between wash/det/phil. Not even close.

 

[Levitate]

Detroit I think is a more “outscore their problems” team right now which can be bad in the playoffs against a good team unless it all breaks their way. Just my impression though and I haven’t spent a ton of time watching them
Caps seem more classic “try to rely on some defense and goaltending and get some luck against better teams”
Detroit might be an easier out but both could be surprising I think

Nah, just annoyed that we lost to them.

 

[leetch99]

Isles 1-0 lead called back then 30 seconds later Cats score. Now all we're missing is the cats exposing Horvat's receding hairline.



Nothing would be left of the city if Torts took over. Their owners are not honest enough with themselves and with the fans to embrace and empower Torts.

Gallant would likely be a better choice...at least he would get them heading in the right direction and easily into the playoffs . He would be a good 2-3 years guy for them and see where it goes ,

It’s Caps, Wings or Flyers. NYI or NJD with an outside chance.

6'8" goalie

 

[PuckLuck3043]

6'8" goalie

Is he any good?

 

[duhmetreE]

6'8" goalie

no relation to Detroit great

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

Is he any good?

If he is he won’t be for long.

Philly is a goalie graveyard. NJ is right behind them.

 

[duhmetreE]

Is he any good?

he's a massive human. reports say he has solid technique. He's performed well at the Olympics

Holding on to October-era predictions is a winning tactic.

But....imagine?

 

[noncents]

i don't want to play jersey

Your dream come true.

They won’t be getting in though. They’ll shit the bed somewhere along the way and that’ll be it.

Go away, you don't even know. Id be doing back flips from Atlantic City all the way to East Rutherford celebrating the Gods gift to sport Jesper Bratt.

 

[LOFIN]

How are you going to score on this guy LMAO, he covers all the crease

 

[effen]

Ben Bishop was bigger.

Big if true

I see Philly decided to go the GEICO way and got Duncan's slimmer brother, Ivan to play net.

"It's a walrus, ridiculous!"
