Around the NHL - (Playoffs Edition)

I don’t get how that la goal was disallowed a few days ago, yet you’re allowed to basically kick in a goal as long as the blade doesn’t come off the ice.

Just NHL things

Defibrillator paddles for the Canucks and they still have a chance.

Crazy last 3 min of third in nsh by van who were outplayed for 57min

 

[gunnergunther]

And the post Sissons hit on the empty net attempt. The scriptwriters really outdid themselves with that game.

Wow, what a come back from the Deranged Oreo Dolphins. Lol.

Sam Carrick has been healthy scratched. Wonder why.

Henrique was pretty rough to begin this period. Missed a tip on a clear that led to an icing then just threw the puck away in the middle that kept his line from changing.

Currently at the Kings game. This is their best chance to win a game. The Oilers look like trash outside of their powerplay.

Skinner had a HELL of a game. Did not think I would see a playoff game where EDM had less shots than the Ducks had in game all year. Wild.

Canucks may win this series but they should not scare anyone. Kinda disappointed in the Preds

AHAHAHAHAHA SUCK IT TRASHVILLE

 

[Mr Rogers]

Just a lone goal over 4 games for Fiala.

 

[TheGoodShepard1]

It’s weird because if you look at the shot totals the Kings dominated, and yet there was never a point in the final 15 minutes of that game (IMO at least) that I thought they threatened to where they were going to tie the game

At least he is not taking stupid penalties

 

[Anaheim4ever]

Trashville and Kings lose on the same night. It was a good night.

 

[Rybread86]

"Stop f***ing crying bro, this isn't fuxking junior" best comment of the playoffs in a long ass time

 

[Kalv]

The meltdowns on Leafs and Kings boards are single handidly gonna accelerate the global warming by 200%

 

[JabbaJabba]

That Dubois deal is a gift that keeps on giving. Only 7 more seasons of it.

Lot of frustration with Fiala as well it seems. Meanwhile Faber is looking amazing for the Wild

This is the story every year for the Leafs. It was crazy 3 years ago. It is insane now for them, I wonder if changes are finally coming

What $48M gets you in Toronto: 3G-4A-7P in 17GP (Matthews, Tavares, Marner, Nylander, Rielly) What $48M gets you in Boston: 8G-19A-27P in 28GP (Pastrnak, Marchand, Coyle, Zacha, DeBrusk, McAvoy, Lindholm & a 2025 Ram 1500) Hell, Marchand at $6.125M has more points (8) than our entire Core Four...

Thats the kings game.. They just wrist shots toward the net and hope it deflects off someone's ass an in..

 

[Dryish]

So yeah, that unfortunate redirection ended up fracturing Namestnikov's cheek bone.

I don't think you can win with all 4 of those guys. They're all very soft, underperform in the playoffs and take up most of your cap. Marchand makes less than each of them and is honestly more valuable in the playoffs than all combined.

Some players just hate to lose and I don't think any of those 4 really fit into that category and that makes it difficult for the team to win when you got guys like Marchand / Thakuck who look like they would push their own grandmother down a flight of stairs if it meant they had a better chance at winning.

Lol at the last sentence but yeah. I wonder what excuse they will come up this year but they are clearly not carrying the team none of the years, it seems. Dubas gave in and prized them with huge contracts early on and in the regular season they're earning it but yeah, as you said, they don't have the drive as some others. That tweet says that Marchand actually has more points than them combined albeit he earns less than any of them.

Gotta appreciate at least a bit of what Pat tries to build, it's very different from that. Comes with its own set of problems but at least I can appreciate the plan.
