Bif, we’re at $588 and $650 with an hour left.

I’m out.

You were bidding against Giroux on that Avs sweater.

Having a discussion with my brother and just curious where neutral parties stand:

Who is gonna be better when it's all said and done Dahlin or Jiricek?

It's....not very good unfortunately. Every now and then you might see an entertaining game, but when most games end in score like 18 to 2, it's hard to watch
I watched a game and found this to be true, no where close as entertaining as the mens games are.

The depth of talent just isn't there yet to field 18 teams. They wanted to expand, but it was too quick. If there was only 10 teams, it would likely be much better, but there are too many teams and not enough quality women's players to fill the rosters

Not sure where to post this, popped up in my YouTube recommendations. Boston vs Toronto 1966. Joe Watson and a maskless Bernie Parent in the net for Bruins, in Orr's 4th game.


They can't even take faceoffs lol they just slap at the puck like it's gym class

I'd be a 75% faceoff winner against these losers

New rules being workshopped in the Champions Hockey League this year:

1) Minor penalties will be served in their entirety, even if opposing team scores (with the following caveat).

2) A shorthanded goal negates the remainder of that team's minor penalty.

3) A minor penalty will still be assessed if the opposing team scores during the delayed penalty time period.

I like all three and have wanted the NHL to implement #1 for as long as I could understand the rules.

What do you think?

I like 1 & 3, but #2 seems kind of meh to me. It makes sense, just not a big fan. #3 has been in the college game for years, I think it's a great one.

I heard the KHL was adopting a rule that if a team was on a PP to start a period, the faceoff would take play in the offensive zone of the team that's on the PP. That's a bit much

#1 used to be the way of things but the league felt the need to nerf the 70s Habs, I think. Which has never made sense to me at all.
