Around the NHL - Part XLV (Playoffs edition)

Congrats to Emberson for getting that cheddar. Signs a 2 year extension with EDM

That is just because his last two playoff runs were bad. In his first four playoff runs (35 games) he had a .921 save percentage.

Not off to the greatest start in this one, but neither goal was soft.

Claude Julien would be a nice add

Guy looks like a toy muppet that turns red when he gets mad.

decent coach but didn't he have some serious health issues a while back?
Not sure he can handle the stress of coaching some of these softies.

I'm sorry, but I find it very offensive that TNT, who I think is so much better top to bottom than ESPN, couldn't send Forslund and Botterill to Winnipeg. Remote broadcasts are so bush. Especially in the playoffs.

That Kyrou shot was filthy!

 

[Boris Zubov]

Why are the refs calling this so tight? Let them play.

Such a dangerous good young player. Would have killed to have him on the Rangers.

He would have been turned into a fourth liner here.

I didn't realize they weren't on site...I thought my audio wasn't in sync, but it's the remote broadcasting that's the issue. How f***ing lame.

Didn't we draft his brother?

is this a joke? They aren't there? WTF.
No wonder the audio is a joke

Didn't even know he had a brother in the NHL. But actually drafted by the Stars

 

[FoxysExpensiveNYDigs]

Barron got his goal taken away

Thanks. We actually drafted Barbashev's brother.

Loved this reply!!!

 

[CasusBelli]

This feels like a regular season game again. Will check back for the Makar game.

The important things: both these teams could use a uniform upgrade. The Jets logo has always unsettled me. The way the jet covers the maple leaf, makes the jet look like its on fire. The jersey design is fine enough, my old high school team colors.

The Blues jersey is one of the most mid uniforms, but they could be elite. I even like their 90s clown fit better than this. STL has a history of really good designs, this one is very boring. Ditch the navy, more baby.

Are the Winnipeg Jets and NY/NJ Jets friends?

No relation

Would Torts have the same issues with these softees?

 

[Harbour Dog]

Binnington is a proven big game goalie at this point.

 

[Captain Lindy]

Beautiful goal!
