It's genuinely hilarious to go over at the Flyers board, and see people legit mad at Tortorella. Like get real, you would probably be below Columbus if it wasn't for Torts.

Great stuff from Torts, calls it like it is! They should never make him answer questions right after a game, unless they can handle it...The following day, 100% legit, great answers, better than 90% of his colleagues

LA barely escaping with 2 points vs the Yotes. Yotes have been a pest here down the stretch, typical bottom feeder team haha. They cost me a couple bets, last night they looked like they'd burn me again.

Some good games tonight.

Bruins @ Canes
Pens @ Caps
Blues @ Preds

Dallas's D and Goaltending are just okay.

Their forward depth is second to none, they have like 15 20 goal scorers or some shit.

But they will be at a disadvantage in high-end talent in quite a few matchups. They dont have a McDavid, MacKinnon, Q. Hughes, Fox, Panarin, Kucherov, Pasta, etc.

Although the same could be said about Vegas least season, so who knows.

I wish we could draft and develop like Dallas.

Hintz, Robertson, Wyatt, Stankoven and Harley

30 other teams have the same wish.

10 years ago Dallas was considered the worst drafting team in the league. They either had a major overhaul or they’ve run into a lucky streak

Can we have a re-do? Trade Othmann for Johnson?

what a miss
Johnson looks like the better player as of now but there's still time for Othmann.

Might as well just bet the Bruins and Canes going to Ot.
I don't hate that tbh. For some reason I watched just about the whole Bruins @ Nash game the other night. Hockey wasn't horrible, there was some good goaltending. No one scored till the 3rd. I could see a similar game.

This time of year any two competing teams playing, I like the OT bet. Hell we were close last night.

you mean Johnston?

but yeah.. Othmann has a long way to go to be able to live up to what a lot of folks around here expect from him.
Yeah, I didn't realize there was a 't' in there tbh. I was wrong well before replying to him haha.

Still, we don't know. I've tempered my original expectations for Othmann but I still think you get a solid scoring middle 6 forward who agitates. Poor man's TW I'm thinking.
