Miscellaneous NHL Discussion CX: That's A Lot.

[Rebels57]

Don't remember the last time the Wild Card race for both Conferences was all but over this early.

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

USA Hockey willingly left this player off their roster over Nelson & Trocheck.

Dumbest league in the world

Hopefully this means we hear less whining for extended playoffs.

If Calgary win out they would get to 96 points, and Min and StL already have 93 each

And Kreider

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

And Kreider

Yeah but those two probably made it because of their center flexibility which Thompson also would have given them. But yeah even as the last winger in & out of the lineup which Kreider essentially was for them I’d still take Thompson regardless.

 

[Appleyard]

Realised something funny today.

Since Jeff Reese basically told the Flyers to get lost and left...

not one of the goalies he has had in Dallas has EVER been under .900 over their time with the team. (albeit Niemi and Lehtonen were below average for era)

Niemi: .900
Lehtonen: .906
Bishop: .923
Khudobin: .917
Holtby: .912
Wedgewood: .907
Oettinger: .913
DeSmith: .916

I find it kinda funny, I find it kinda sad
The team they call the Flyers is the worst we’ve ever had

Is it funny or is it more hair pulling frustration to see another example of the orgs incompetence? Cause I think it's kind of the latter

 

[TCTC]

Wilson pushing the Hurricanes player into his own goalie is such a Tom Wilson thing to do.

 

[Appleyard]

It is ridiculous how he is still just carrying a team where everyone else is clearly either not good enough or already golfing in their mind.

Between this, Gauthier recently lighting it up, watching Buium be the best player on the ice in the frozen four…: I’m ready to drink bleach

Why? Again, this is the "find out" stage for the Oldigarchy. I'm loving it. I hope there's so much egg on the org's face that it drips into the Schuylkill River

[BackToTheBrierePatch]

Western Michigan defeats Denver in 2 OT 3-2

He’s my hero.

Got to love Shesterkin with the SO now. Quick was so bad.

 

[Magua]

5-0, Rangers? Nice rebound from yesterday. Go f*** yourselves.

 

[scumpup]

Pastrnak is such a great player I'd love him if he ever changed his sweater.

 

[TheKingPin]

Quick vs Shesterkin. If only we got more starters this season.

 

[TheKingPin]

Welp there goes the night. Seattle winning would be nice

There is no find out though. Much like real oligarchs, they lack the powers of self-reflection and humility.

 

[BackWithaVengeance]

Bruins lost to the Blackhawks.
Ducks got smoked by the Kings.
Sabres went down to the Blue Jackets.
Rangers destroyed the Islanders.
Kraken are about to loose in Vegas.

f***in awesome.

 

[BackWithaVengeance]

What do you mean forced? We should all be rooting for that kid.

Reminder: the flyers chose Torts over Frost, Farabee, and Gauthier only to fire him a few months later. A+

I don't expect you to follow me closely (why should you?) but I am well aware how much reputation this franchise lost (again) with the hiring of Torts. I don't blame Gauthier for his decision, actually I understand it. I don't even wanna know how much more potential deals or acquisitions didn't work out beacuse people didn't want to be in Flyersland. All the first class organization thing only goes that far I guess.

On the other side I can't root for someone who declined to play for the Flyers. Sorry I can't. I understand the decision but I just can't.
