Around the NHL: Part XXXIV

[NYRFANMANI]

As European, the Olympics mean something to me and I can't wait to see NHL stars there again.

Tbf 2018 was a good, even without NHL players, but only because Germany surprisingly made it to the finals.

As a Canadian I could care less about the Olympics although I would be in the minority because everybody seems to think it is a big deal winning that O Gold medal .I cheered for Henrik when Sweden played Canada....I would NEVER cheer for Price....NEVER or Crosby !!!! I hate seeing the NHL break....it just SUCKS having no hockey on some nights . Plus...what happens if your top player gets ripped up out there ...how does that help your playoff chances ? Play the World Championships and the World Juniors and have a Canada Cup at the first of October and shorten the league schedule by 6 games .....that is how I would like to see it .

Maybe the Kraken should set up dorm housing, lol

Am I the only one that doesn't care about the Olympics?

In this order

1. NHL hockey
2. NYR prospect games
3. WJC
4. World Championships
5. Olympics without NHLers
6. Olympics with NHLers

Jimmy Vesey will be netting hat-tricks by the buttload every Rangers-Devils game (assuming his PTO is a success).

For me it's Rnagers hockey, Olympics with NHLers, Other NHL games then all the rest.

I don't care much for it to be honest.

I would've thought it would be impossible for me to care any less about the Olympics, but here we are

*Jimmy Vesey scores a hat trick in a preseason game against the Devils with Mason Geertsen on the ice for all 3 goals*

HFNYR: did the Sabres win the Jimmy Vesey trade?

The ex-Ranger Rule, eh?

My prediction is Tony will kill us this season in games against the Canes.

Evander Kane interview on ESPN… he comes off looking like a prick , big surprise

Where's all the Euro league games missing in this list?

another Toronto Buffalo outdoor game. SMH, like I need to see that matchup again. They should totally have a Seattle Vancouver game this year instead.

Which one, is it the Winter Vintage Throwback Extravaganza Classic? Or is it the Outdoor Bonanza Excellent Adventure Shinny Showdown? I've lost track of how many there are now.

While they are a mess of an organization, they made the right call and the Kachina looks awesome. One of the best jerseys in the league IMO.

 

[PuckLuck3043]

With the signing of Chara that must make the Isles the oldest team in the league. Does the new stadium have pull out cots for them to take a nap between periods? I'm hoping they have a vending machine that at least serves pudding and geritol. This is the Isles dance party if they ever won the cup.

I hope they go back to the crescent moon at center ice. It was the best center Ice/Field/Court in all of sports, with the Rangers crest at center ice a VERY close second, IMO.

He has the best hockey voice. For me, easily 10x better than Doc.

Ill miss listening to him calling games.

Wow. Heard a ton of this guy, not so much from watching TV but from hearing his voice in the EA games for all those years.

I found his voice soothing while mashing buttons. Great choice by EA, along with Darryl Reaugh.

Isles vs the Lakers for the Geriatric Cup.

Maybe they should live like paupers while playing there and save the living in a mansion part for when they retire.
