OT: Around the NHL: That Bedard kid is okay at hockey

[BusinessGoose]

Rangers board in full melt-down mode. You just hate to see it.

They learned from the best..

 

[Gurglesons]

If the Rags and Caps can keep losing, I’d feel pretty secure in the Pens place in the POs…lol…of course, they won’t beat Isles, Canes or NJD in round one but that’s another story lol…

I’m interested to see how we look against the Isles. Not really concerned about the Canes.

Devils probably crush us.

 

[Turin]

Feel bad for him.

Same. Not the environment I would test him out as a number 1 defenseman. I hope he does well enough though, seemed like a good dude and fun to watch.

Hintz-Pavelski-Robertson is just a silly line.

 

[McGroarty2]

Murray's actually played great this season. Great numbers. I hope he can keep it up.

Is he still knocking nets off on purpose?

So it's like ours when we lose?

Rangers board in full melt-down mode. You just hate to see it.

After how a lot of them acted during/after our first round series against them last spring, couldn't happen to a better fanbase.

The team's won 1 Cup in the lifetime of 99% of HF posters, and needed to buy the Oilers dynasty in order to do it, yet they act like they're the greatest franchise in the Metro.

Surprised this happened to the perfectly built team

Surprised this happened to the perfectly built team

Was gunna say, the main boards thread say they are perfect.

Couldnt happen to a better team. Rebuild done! Oh wait.... we still suck!

They're like the opposite of the Penguins: Elite goalie who carries them along with a potent PP, but who suck at ES.

Wait... they have an elite goalie!?!? Thought they had Murray 2.0 for a minute.

 

[BHD]

What is going on with The Perfectly Built Hockey Team? lol

 

[Empoleon8771]

Speaking of the Rangers, I'll totally eat crow about what I said regarding Trocheck being a 2C. He's a 2C caliber player, but god damn he's an underwhelming one. 15 points in 26 games while being a -10 and playing 20:30 a night is not good.

What makes it worse is that he only has 6 5v5 points.

And to think, some people in this fanbase wanted him over Malkin over the off-season. Shame shame shame.

Their Powerplay is awful tho

Speaking of the Rangers, Athanasiou had this to say about Trouba...

"He’s an $8-million man with zero goals, so he has to figure out how to do something when making that much. If you can’t help the team, I guess you try to hurt guys on the other team.”

 

[eXile3]

Speaking of the Rangers, Athanasiou had this to say about Trouba...

It’s actually a pretty good asset because the NHL refuses to stop. He was the MVP of last year’s series. He doesn’t elbow Crosby we probably win that series.

 

[Big Friggin Dummy]

Speaking of the Rangers, Athanasiou had this to say about Trouba...

Good. Speak up about that kinda shit. It's past time the NHL stopped ignoring or outright glorifying shitty players for making their mark on games not by playing hockey well, but by injuring opposing guys.

He took a out a Cane in the second round too. Necas? Can’t remember exactly. Prob tried it against Tampa too but my memory is bad.

 

[AlphaMikeFoxtrots]

I hope every other non-Blues team and fanbase gets on board with delaying this milestone as long as possible:

Edit: that pass is for TONIGHT ONLY, Rags. Unless every other team keeps it going until you go to St. Louis.

In April.

 

[Gurglesons]

MacKinnon really taking up the mantle for Sid with a team riddled with injuries in their top six.

 

[Turin]

Ville Husso >>> Binnington

 

[AlphaMikeFoxtrots]

Quadruple whammy for the Bruins: first bonus time game, goes to shootout, loss, for their first home loss on the season.

Quintuple if you account for coming from back the 3-0 deficit.

 

[Sidney the Kidney]

Come on, Oilers. Your dynamic duo scores 5 points a game most nights but then you play Washington and lose 3-2.

Caps making up 8 points seems like a huge leap with how they’ve played this season.

 

[Turin]

Oh man Matheson in OT lol
