Around the NHL: Part XXXIII

[Ratelleitlikeitis]

I’m happy to see the Leafs lose.

I don’t know what it is. Something about Matthews and Marner get to me. Maybe the fan base sometimes. I just can’t stand them at all. I’d cheer for any team in the league against them.

Try living in the heartland!

I can't in good conscience support someone who chooses to look the way he chooses to look.

holy shit Buffalo just tied it up vs Boston

 

[LokiDog]

Ovie keeps plugging. 22 in 38. Not quite a 50 pace (47.47) but pretty impressive for a guy who is turning 36, and we all know Ovie has historically had hot second halves.

 

[Harbour Dog]

Boston-Buffalo going to OT.

 

[Kords]

Boston/Buffalo somehow looks worse than the game the Rangers just played

 

[Fitzy]

No ROW for Boston even if they take the shootout- that tie breaker could feasibly end up mattering a lot the last two games of the season

 

[Harbour Dog]

Thompson and Oloffsson looked like they'd never taken a penalty shot before...

Except against us. They had their chances but all those bruins games against buffalo are gonna be almost sure shots

I like your glass half full thought process

You'd think, but they just had to go to the shootout to win the first one.

 

[MaximusT]

Ugh, Buffalo was clearly the better team in OT which makes that loss hurt even more. Going to need them to help us out in their 5 games remaining against the Bs, though I remain skeptical.

 

[RGY]

Bjork has a chance to win the game but he shows his usual self of just sucking. Amazing thats all Boston had to give up for Taylor Hall no matter how bad a season he is having

 

[Off Sides]

Flyers

 

[aufheben]

Just checking in with the Flames to see how the bag-skating savant has been going for them:

“14. The Flames have gone 5-9-0 under Darryl Sutter, seeing their expected goals rate drop by 1.6 percentage points as they’ve shifted even further towards a low-event style that doesn’t suit their roster. So… that coaching change didn’t exactly work, did it.

15. Across the board every core member of the Flames has been a disappointment under Sutter, mostly because the entire team has.”

16 Stats: Should Nashville trade Ekholm? Taylor Hall's value, and Jack Campbell

Flyers

They might as well have stayed home.

 

[NYR94]

Dat .812 Flyers goalie save percentage

 

[SnowblindNYR]

Stat courtesy of the Flyers board. They now have 7 losses by 5 or more goals in 42 fames. One game every six. For some reference we have 0 such games and they're 2 points behind us amazing.

I actually can’t believe how bad Carter Hart has been lol

They had the typical AV PDO standings boost to start the year and we suck in close games.

Going by those stats looks like Alex should get the Lyon's share of starts.
