I just don’t see it. If they do they would be one of the least skilled teams to do it in as long as I can remember
 
Looks like Pionk finally came back to earth... Just 1pt and a -4 in his last 12gp. Still doesn't make me feel much better about the Trouba contract even though he's been better lately

How is that a slew foot? I hate March and more than anyone but I don't see any kicking feet out or.forcing anyone backwards on their head..there was some Incidental foot contact during the scrum.
.is that what you're talking about?

My thought as well. Just looks like he outmuscled a guy who tried to outmuscle him first.

The McDavid/Draisaitl show against the Sens has been an amusing bonus to this season's 'division only' format

That first goal was just too easy. Terrible PK positioning. The second, I just don’t know. Looks like awful goaltending but also looks like a play those two might practice and maybe just a ridiculously good shot from no angle.

Defenses in the north are such a joke. Rangers would be no lower than 2nd in that division and would be putting up at least 5 goals per game.


Oilers doing a standard cycle and Ottawa just leaves 2 Oilers all alone down low to make the easy play. Oilers don’t convert tho lol. Just before that a simple 2 on 2 rush and the Ottawa d just splits and let’s the guy go right up the gut to the net

This isn’t about defense, but the projected playoff cutoff (gray dashed line) for each division is pretty interesting. The projected cutoff in the East is ~5 points higher than all of the North/West/Central.

Basically if the Rangers played in any other division, they’d make the playoffs this year.

Edit: lol Vancouver

Devils fans probably think they should have done better but this year I would imagine players traded are not gonna get full value for the Sellers.
 
Always liked Palmieri. He was on my short list of guys I wanted back in the 2009 draft. Was disappointed when NJ acquired him for a second and third round pick.
