Miscellaneous NHL Discussion XCII: A buyer's or seller's market?

[Magua]

Claude, if it holds, with the present game tying assist and game winning goal against the Rangers. After he convinced his team to buy with his words and play. What a f***ing leader. Up there with Winston Churchill in my opinion.

Ottawa is just on fire right now. Giroux, Stutzle, & Tkachuk are just playing at a really high level lately.

 

[Rich Nixon]

Just a casual 1g 2a in the 3rd for Claude to put the Senators over the Rangers.

Well Boston broke the 100 points record

That skater group has the high talent on both front and back end. They’re missing Norris too. Imagine if they didn’t piss draft capital away on fit picks, and we could be talking about a truly top team soon instead of just good.

I know they’ve underperformed, but their poor first half reminded me of the Devils season last year, albeit the details weren’t identical. But that they were near the Flyers in the bottom 5-8 in the standings was totally misleading. A better coach, another season of development and talent additions, that’s the fun team everyone predicted.

 

[Magua]

Giroux has been a 90 point pace player in the 79 games away from the Flyers. Across 2 teams. With all the elite play-driving, per usual. At age 34-35. Flyers should be tried for war crimes for everything to do with his career.

Much better than NBC

Possibly. But is it really better to be at best the 6th most important sport at ESPN? I mean NFL, MLB, NBA, NCAAFB and NCAABB are all more important at this point and possibly others as well.

Might have been more productive to try something with Apple or Amazon. Or maybe even just done their own thing for a couple of years and offered different packages with less limitations online.

haha the Pens sure dropped the Flyers like a bad habit in the PO hunt..

That Tkachuk hit before the goal.

That's what the league needs, water down the product further with franchises in cities where there is huge demand for ice hockey, b/c so many kids grow up playing the game.

Geez.

Gunning for the TV markets.

Stupidity. They're a niche sport, and always will be.

Smart strategy would be to strengthen that niche, make sure your existing franchises are on solid ground, and improve the product.

If you want to move into new markets, move out of your weakest existing markets.

The Atlanta Thrashers will rise again.

The owners made over a billion from letting Vegas and Seattle into the league. I’m sure they’ll take your advice to not do that again.
