NHL Talk Miscellaneous NHL Discussion CII: Post-Trade Deadline Edition (POLL: Pick the 2024 Cup winner) -- consolidated transactions threads in OP

[MiamiScreamingEagles]

Anyone else find the names on the screen during the play somewhat distracting? Twice during the NYR-Fla OT, the graphic blocked the net.

Zibanejad just Forsberg'd Bob in the shootout

They sent this man to the AHL on his birthday 16 months ago. There was a time to pounce. Sigh.

 

[BackToTheBrierePatch]

My dad was reminiscing about his Ohio State playing days, so I was looking up some names on Elite Prospects and found his profile.

I had looked him up a few years ago but nothing was there. Someone is finally adding player information from over 50 years ago to college hockey pages.

Data isn't great, but it was neat to see some there, anyway.

Hockeydb might have something

All the good people on this forum knew about him long before this breakout.

 

[FLYguy3911]

Yeah but he Michys.

His name is there, but no stats. HockeyDB is definitely not as comprehensive with the old timey stats.

Caps appear to have the Jets beat. 3-0 late, all goals in the 3rd. 2 by Ovechkin.

Islanders play the Devils at 5, they’re so far back in regulation wins that it doesn’t matter how they win as long as they do it.

You post stuff like this to wound me, don't you?

Might need to change my Quackverse rival...

Of course it’s a shutout. I think all of Lindgrens shutouts have come with him on my bench in fantasy. Thankfully it’s not going to cost me. I started him against Toronto and he got lit up

I went to Angleholm specifically to watch him in person during his draft year aha. Always loved his game.

 

[MacDonald4MVP]

He's gonna price himself out of Vancouver and probably end going to Vegas somehow while they have 8 players in ltir

 

[BritainStix]

Why won't the caps just f*** off already.

 

[GKJ]

Devils scored 3 times in the first 7 minutes

Pretty interesting development

NHL preparing for possible CHL-NCAA rule change

A major shift in the hockey world could be coming soon. According to Sportsnet's Elliotte Friedman, the NHL gave the general managers an update on the future of the NCAA and Canadian Hockey League relationship this week at the GM meetings.

Junior A and USHL to a lesser extent would take a big hit, but it would be a big boost to NCAA hockey. The CHL would get the top 16 year old prospects they lost out on due to the college route, but I imagine they might lose some 19 year olds that want to challenge themselves before turning pro.

U-Sport would also take a big hit since most of their top players are unsigned overagers from the CHL who would probably go play college hockey in the States instead.

 

[Beef Invictus]

Yea but the wins now. Enjoy them

And make sure you keep savoring these wins 15 years from now when Michkov is being shipped out and shat upon, bringing to an end another failed era.

I'm glad the team maintains their proudest and longest traditions like this.

U-Sports would get crushed and so would the BCHL, whose whole purpose was to be a path to the NCAA and felt they had to leave Hockey Canada to better serve that.

"i cant believe we selected Michkov, what a bust"

The Pens losing 5-4 after leading 4-0, and Le Old Man getting toasted by Drouin was pretty cool.

Bellemare is up to 696 games aged 39

Hextall signed him to his first NHL contract almost 10 years ago

good for him... poor guy being glued to VDV while here

Well to be fair Hak had him play in such a passive role that he never got to use his speed. I mean whenever he was on the ice it felt like he always had to stay back and never be on the wrong side of the puck. Essentially as if he was killing a penalty and even when deployed in a checking role it felt like he was miss used. Cherry on top would be to have him and VDV stacked at the blue line and double shift them while opposing team would truly attack with speed to get into flyers zone pull the goalie and we ended up terribly killing 6on5 to close out the games.
