NHL Talk Miscellaneous NHL Discussion CIX: Processing a Tremendous Amount of Insane Information

They’re so stacked lol. Their possibly current lineup doesn’t even have Kulich and Ostlund. Imagine if they took a few other guys over Helenius too.

Apparently Yakemchuk looked pretty good in this game

Robertson is toast in TO.

On the backcheck, instead of skating back hard, he did the "push your teammate in tte ass with your stick" to Nylander.

Except he pushed Nylander to the ice who then had his head collide with the knee of a Mtl player. Nylander left the game.

Mid period analysts ripped Robertson. Expect a trade before the season starts...then sign MaxP.

I trust my own peepers, bud.

Gibson had to get his appendix removed and he's out for a month

Ducks’ John Gibson out 3-6 weeks after appendectomy surgery

Gibson had his appendix removed on Wednesday night without any known complications.

To me it looked like Nylander was trying to draw a penalty, but he didn't realize it was his own teammate who pushed him. Now they both look like idiots.

This is amazing if true.

Things you love to see

I drafted him. Or I wanted to. One of the two.

The way this is formatted, I thought Doughty died.

There is such joke potential in "no method to travel to Detroit safely"...

 

[BigToe]

Reinbacher and Laine both injured and left the game.

Just ride the Coors train. The thing travels at Mach F**k and doesn't need rails.

... in the first 4 minutes. Laine's injury has every look of a serious one.



And Xhekaj took revenge:

Do I say it?

 

[Surrounded By Ahos]

It's a good thing Xhekaj was dressed. Otherwise somebody might have taken a run at one of the Habs star players.

 

[DancingPanther]

From that 5 second clip, that looks like a defender who got caught flat-footed and indecisive, who tried to play the body/slow down a guy he knows is going past him in a last ditch effort. I think the knee to knee contact was an unfortunate accident. The only "intent to injure" was the MTL player who assaulted the guy on the Leafs and was called a rockstar for it

I'm calling it now, when Buffalo finally stops being a dumpster fire the narrative from the anti-tank crew will change from "you want to end up like Buffalo?" to "Buffalo got lucky and took forever to be good, you can't emulate that".

The point that they will have no teams to point at for cautionary tales against tanking after that will be entirely lost on them.

How many years are we waiting for Buffalo to exit the dumpster fire territory tho? I am not disagreeing with the rest of your post's notion.

 

[Curufinwe]

Buffalo will still be a cautionary tale. They've been dead last in P% over 13 seasons. Last playoff appareance was when Lavi used 3 goalies to beat them in 2011.

Toronto?

If it takes two decades of tanking to finally win a few playoff games . . .

Oh no it could take 14+ years to be good? Hmmmmmmmmmmm

*currently checking calendar to see the last time the Flyers were actually good*... it's been awhile
