Miscellaneous NHL Discussion XC: Stoppage Time Not Required

[Strawberry Fields]

I never really watched the all star game but I miss the fantasy draft format.

 

[Rebels57]

Brock Nelson was also chosen over Barzal. At least their points are closer than with Hayes-Konecny.

You can criticize the NHL for a lot, but they know how to market their stars!

Imagine tuning into an AS Game to watch Nelson & Hayes

 

[Magua]

The best thing they ever did was making the All Star Game a 3v3 tournament. It actually has pace and cuts through the lazy defensive effort stuff.

Sounds like Chuck Fletcher's dream top 6 center tandem.

Chuck was the Metro Division’s GM for the all-star game.

He picked the players?

It was a joke given the shitty picks of Hayes & Nelson.

The Hayes pick is so f***ing insane that I thought Fletcher somehow picking the teams was more likely than him actually being picked by other people.

Maybe he got the pity pick because of his brother. I refuse to believe someone actually thinks he deserved it. No f***ing chance.

Pacioretty is back.

Carolina put up 67 shots tonight in his honor.

We also lost in regulation 5-3.

I hate this team.

You have 8 regulation losses through (almost) half the season. You're fine.

It's mostly just triggering my PTSD from the Peters years. That kind of shit happened constantly while he was the coach.

Quoting myself like the dork that I am.

During his tenure, the Canes lost 17 games where they registered 40+ shots on goal.

"The Best One"?

What the actual f*** is that?

What a clown organization .

They must have let Fletcher pick

This is from a couple of weeks ago, but I only came across it today.

That's some EA Sports shit

 

[MacDonald4MVP]

I bet you won't see stuff like this in all star game. Also Simmer torched all star game and it didn't increase his value one bit. So for those hopeful you can look back at the potluck Hartman years.

Who gives a shit about Hayes' story. His story is that he's such an entitled diva that the team was probably afraid of the disruptive tantrum he'd throw if he wasn't selected.

Exactly, plus “TK already had his turn” is such f***ing stupid logic too.

You pick the players deserving. Period.

Don’t give the Hart to Gretzky. He already had it.

What are you talking about? Simmonds value was at an all time high after the ASG. Hextall just refused to trade him and traded Schenn instead.

 

[ellja3]

Vrana on waivers? Wasn't he good?

He was more than good, but apparently there's some background stuff happening w him on support program etc.

The Flyers pick their All Star representative?

 

[wankstifier]

Making assumptions here… I guess the NHL in general probably is a bad environment for someone in recovery. Philadelpia seems like a particularly bad spot, historically speaking. The current team leadership (Hayes, et al) group seems like a bunch of shit heads.

Don’t think Vrana would flourish here, as much as I’d like to give him a shot. Moot anyway since Chuck’s cap f***ed the team.
