GDT: HFBoards GDT: 1/7/25 | 10 games Today

[Coffey]

Not bad at all

 

[Ghost of Murph]

Knies the most dangerous man in hockey over the past week.

 

[Lshap]

Possibly why so many OTs as teams are playing not to lose and at least get the 1 point.

Before OT/SO, teams had to win in regulation to get 2 points. Fewer games ended in a tie after 60 because teams pushed harder to get that second point.

Today, they play not to lose more often because they know they can get the extra point in OT.

 

[Pablo El Perro]

That's a penalty

 

[Dotter]

Wings 5 game win streak. Held OTT off the board 5v5.

Wings 'bout to take a WC slot.

I'm liking the coaching change

Every mid team in the east taking a turn in a WC spot for a couple days before going on a losing streak this year it seems lol

 

[JimmyApples]

There was no dive. Why in the world would Seider dive while having a clear lane to the net? Tell me you’ve never played hockey without telling me you’ve never played hockey.

You realize I said I posted that before the final penalty was even called, right? I was not talking about the OT call

 

[stats1]

Knies is a machine! What a beautiful tip. Absolute steal in the 2nd round

 

[rynryn]

MIN will be hard pressed to keep winning if Faber is out now too.

 

[Three On Zero]

Brayden Point denies the Canes a point

Point denies a point

 

[Pablo El Perro]

Everytime I see Risto on this pp, I think that's unfortunate

My memory was of the opposite. Both teams would turtle in the back half of the 3rd to secure the tie.

They added OT/SO to make teams go for 2. Now, I can see why you end up with the same problem anyway. But that’s what I remember as the original reason

Tell me you grew up in the Detroit Education System without telling me you grew up in the Detroit Education System

Well, I’m Canadian and grew up in Ontario, so.

Yes. There was no dive at any point.

 

[rynryn]

please please pleas let binnington melt-down

 

[PaulD]

Yeah, but the Leafs weren't really the top seed that year.

First place in the North division

 

[Cloned]

It’s gonna be funny when Trouba makes the playoffs this year with the Ducks while the Rangers miss.

 

[RedRocking]

Nice pass by Michkov, Tippett misses the open net

 

[red devil]

How did Tippett miss the net?

 

[Pablo El Perro]

First place in the North division

Yeah, division, not conference. But the Habs were the 18th seed or whatever

I checked the numbers. Believe it or not, there are significantly more tie games after 60 today than there were before OT/SO. From memory, league average was about 10 ties per team in the 1990s. Today, about 16 games per team end up tied after 60.

 

[Boss Man Hughes]

Refs fall for the Michkov dive.

 

[Pablo El Perro]

Nice pass by Michkov, Tippett misses the open net

Yeah, that was a great setup

 

[Kcb12345]

Should've been a call on OEL too
