Around The NHL Part XXVIII

[FoxyClean]

The Mac Miller trade is such a disaster. Hard to stomach.

That trade got us Nils Lundkvist. Still a long time before we can figure out if it was a good trade.

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

Yeah for sure. I will be trolling that Matt Barzal top 10 Center thread though

He had a really nice view of that series clincher.

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

What’s this charity?

RISE

 

[huerter]

Piles fans can suck it and they can watch as we draft a great talent and have another 1st rounder to play with as they wonder who they are going to pick in the 3rd round.

LOL, we want to do what they just did.

 

[Boris Zubov]

You get a free bowl of soup with that hat?

 

[JT Kreider]

Isles went just far enough. Far enough to push their own pick down while pushing our 2nd first rounder up while accomplishing basically nothing. No extra gate revenue, etc.

They don't have their 1st anyway, or their 2nd, next year too

The Mac Miller trade is such a disaster. Hard to stomach.

Mitigated by the fact he tragically passed away

 

[Tob]

Trotz is the answer in long Island with Lou. He's probably the only coach along with maybe Torts that can utilize that meat and potatoes roster this well. That story line of Barzal perhaps heading somewhere else so he can play his run and gun offensive style might come back in the next few weeks. He's clearly not doing well at Trotz's defensive asks and his numbers aren't great either.

 

[Boris Zubov]

That trade got us Nils Lundkvist. Still a long time before we can figure out if it was a good trade.

Sadly that ship has sailed & we were fleeced. Nils or no Nils.

We will soon enough. Winning that first overall is huge. We went to 3 conference finals in 4 years. I want the cup in a few years.

 

[Tawnos]

LOL, we want to do what they just did.

No we don’t. We want to get to the conference finals by achieving, rather than overachieving. Because if we get there without overachieving, it means we might get to the next step, and the step after that.

 

[Ghost of jas]

No we don’t. We want to get to the conference finals by achieving, rather than overachieving.

I myself prefer being a legitimate contender for many years.

 

[Brooklyn Rangers Fan]

Dallas vs Tampa SCF, can't wait to use all the extra 1st rounders this is going to net the Rangers.....

I LOLed.

 

[Shesterkybomb]

I know, thanks.

First thing he did all series that wasn't a complete disaster.

You're funny too.

 

[aufheben]

we already have the same player

You just sent my brain down a weird rabbit hole where Brett Howden becomes a core player during a championship era, wins a Conn Smythe, and gets his number retired.

I don’t know if my mind can ever come back from this.

 

[Rangerfan4life90]

Sadly that ship has sailed & we were fleeced. Nils or no Nils.

Nah, not if Nils becomes a perennial all-star d-man

Added the extra money because well... I was gonna make the donation no matter what anyway

Kudos.

Barzal for Howden. Gun to my head I would add Andersson.

 

[NYSPORTS]

Jesus, give the Lightning a bit of a rest. At least give them an extra day.

NHL did the same thing to the Isles coming off the Flyers series, Look at the Game 1 score

 

[Crease]

Holy shit it starts Saturday?!

Guess no off day for the Lightning tomorrow. Is there even a media day?

 

[Machinehead]

I like the way they're doing this as opposed to 15 ass days to play 6 games.

 

[NYRFAN218]

NHL’s trying to get this done as soon as possible which is why the playoffs throughout have been rapid fire. Less days in the bubble means less of a chance something goes haywire in terms of Covid and less expenses incurred from the bubble.

 

[Kovalev27]

I would not be shocked to see Matt Martin on our 4th line next season for a lot of reasons
