Miscellaneous NHL Discussion XCI: Bring Your Own Mustard

I hope I see some 2D-1F in the finals.

 

[GKJ]

He was painfully visible on that 1 against 1 by Larkin in the 2nd half, basically did just one pirouette while Larkin skated around for a while

Hope he enjoyed his time there, because he's the only one who will ever remember it happened.

What the crap is this on my tv. Expected hockey but got something worse

 

[Ghosts Beer]

The All-Star weekend became far too gimmicky.

I don’t know how anyone can watch it.

The skills competition used to be fairly entertaining when it was simple.

Fastest skater, hardest shot, accuracy shooting, & breakaway relay.

That’s all they need, & all it should be.

Now they add all sorts of nonsense, like the showboat & prop competition. And have league “guests” participate in events.

And the game itself is silly 3-on-3.

Go back to the basics.

All-Star games in general have lost their lost luster & are essentially on their last legs. That’s an issue all the sports are facing these days.

 

[Angry Hockey Dad]

The all star game / skills competition is an embarrassment. NHL viewership is down 22% this year and this is their attempt to bring in more fans? Embarrassing

Holy sweet creaming antichrist ...

 

[FlyerNutter]

From a Flyer fan perspective, would at least consider watching if this team had an actual exciting star to send.

Giroux was drafted in 2006 lol

8 seconds in there’s a surprise:

Why is Brent Flahr so excited about that goal?

I'm not going to bother watching the video, because the text alone is making me want to rip my own nipples off.

I feel the Earth move under my feet, I feel the sky tumbling down, a-tumbling down

Brendan Fraser better win an Oscar this year.

The Capitals will be paying Milano $550k less over a 4 year period than the Flyers will be paying Deslauriers.

Yeah, but Deslauriers is "hard to play against."

 

[Flyerfan4life]

Yeah, but Deslauriers is "hard to play against."

i think you meant to say hard to watch

 

[Magua]

Yeah, but Deslauriers is "hard to play against."

And with! Builds character.

He’s also hard to move with his 2 year NTC.

 

[chadateit]

He's hard to move on the ice, too, judging by how slow he skates.

 

[Striiker]

I thought all of Fletchers horrible mistakes (Hayes, Risto, Deslauriers, etc) were actually not mistakes since they’re all easy to move?

I agree with everything about the skills portion, but I am probably in the minority about liking the idea of going to 3-on-3. At 5-on-5, there was just a lot of gliding around since nobody was going to actually play defense or throw a check.
