Why is vincent trocheck getting 21 minutes of ice time a game up there with connor mcdavid? wtf tonight he played nearly 26 minutes

Bellemare got 21 minutes against the Panthers because Hakstol believes him and VDV are Hossa and Lehtinen.

Larsson grabbed onto Foligno's arm when he realized he was caught out of position and Foligno would have an open route to the front of the net.

It wasn't a BS call. Maybe Sportsnet didn't show Larsson grabbing Foligno. But the angle on the MSG broadcast showed it as clear as day with the ref looking right at it.

I don't think it prevented a scoring chance, which really should be the only calls they are making in that situation. Besides, we all wanted to see McDavid and Eichel in OT

God I hate Mclellan what a bad decision to hire this guy is and now we're stuck with him simply for the fact the team has gotten rid of so many coaches in the last 5 years.

Now ask why our coach things Bellemare should play 21:17 like he did tonight.

I mean they are in 1st in their division (San Jose has some games in hand but still). Kind of an over reaction, no?

Flyers with the win in OT with 8 seconds to go. That coaching change to Principal Strickland looks real good doesn't it?

I would never expect a coach to turn around an ailing team that quickly.

If that was a "clear as day" holding penalty, McDavid would draw 8 a game.

Not a penalty at any point in the game, let alone on a nothing play as the game is almost over.

Dominate and still lose where have i seen that before? ohh wait im a Panthers fan happens every time they own a game.

Not when McLellan's decisions have been brutal and cost the team points.

 

[BUFSABES1981]

Buffalo-2
Refs-2
Oilers-3

Leagues reffing is absolutely a joke now

Pure crap

 

[Ace]

Rasmus Ristolainen's stat line the last 27 hours is pretty amazing. Played a few seconds shy of an hour, GwG and 4 apples. Traveled in between

 

[Samsonite23]

The Sabres played back to back games.

Rasmus Ristolainen: 1G OT GWG, 4A. 59:51 TOI.

This guy sux.

 

[NarcoPolo]

Shootouts are the worst.

 

[canadianmagpie]

Laine is just amazing. Jets were lucky to move up to 2nd in the draft, he'll be a star.

 

[SanDogBrewin]

The Schwartz was with him.

 

[FlaPanthers11]

Take it how you wish.

 

[Dbrownss]

The Schwartz was with him.

Its nice that hes back to being a 1st line caliber player

 

[Bounces R Way]

Lindy... That was like a triple no goal.

 

[Cubs2024wildcard]

Hossa is just magic.

So much for his decline.

"Calm as a reflecting pool"

comes up with something new everytime, excuse me if he's used this before

Razor's trying his best while taking the reins from the ailing Dave Strader.

He's had to sit through some ****ing horrid Dallas hockey so far, so it's no surprise that he's at least still able to work on the adding the odd "Razorism" to his calls.

 

[Bleedred]

Take it how you wish.

''It's Reimer, Reimer, gonna be scoring on Reimer, the dumb**** GM who signed him for 5 years should probably be fired''

I've been saying for years that Reimer isn't any good, at least not consistently from year to year. He had his first good season last year since the lockout year and only the third good season in his career.

I think his save percentage will probably come above 90% but he's not the answer to be Luongo's heir. The first Simmonds goal looked like something from 1983. No way that was deflected. The OT goal wasn't very good either. Maybe that was deflected? Need better goaltending than that. The eye test confirms he's as poor as his numbers. That one game against Toronto he literally allowed 4 bad goals out of the 6 allowed. I had a very hard time convincing some Sharks fans that he wasn't very good, when some wanted to acquire him even before the Jones trade. He was great for the Sharks last year, but he played pretty well in Toronto and was their best goalie last year. He just isn't good enough consistently from year to year.

So the guy above posts all kinds of stats proving the Panthers were all over the Flyers tonight, one of the best offensive displays (minus the goals) in the last 9 years yet they only scored TWO goals and what you come away with is that it is Reimer's fault? Typical, when Mason has a bad game everyone is so quick to trash him but when he stands on his head and wins a game for his team it's because the other team's goalie had a bad night.
