They also have way more offensive skill on the wings, that's our issue. The coach just establishes what PP system the team will use, and in a copycat league they mostly use the same Umbrella style with some tweaks based on personnel deployed.

The crowd called out for more
I have a confession to make.
I got bounced from the survivor pool last night by picking the Leafs at home to beat the Sens.
I suppose I deserved it.

A team paid a 7th rounder for a depth player yesterday...early enough in the season to have a lasting effect too.

But what kills me is that they move it so well with Gruden, and the islanders did that also. They didn't need to fire Gruden, they were at a mediocre PP rate. Now we're at a bottom 5 rate and the team just struggles for a reason.
I agree, but I’m not interested in bringing his streaky ass back before we fix the problems of not having a PMD or a 1st line sniper.

Id rather eat glass than watch streaky ass Beauvillier on this team again.

Oh the Cup they were winning with that depth, defense, and goaltending was the Lotto Cup!
I heard you were supposed to fail to rebuild and get generational talents and that means you are a Stanley Cup contender.

Torts has the Flyers playing well. Watched them go on the road this weekend and get 4 points against the Ducks and Kings. Redwings look solid as well. Getting close to that informal marker of Thanksgiving and long term playoff landscape.

It's amazing that they were able to get a photo of the exact moment he learned he was being fired!

Now bring up some unknown goalie from Saskatoon for a guaranteed win vs the Islanders
Meh, they can stick with their regular shit goalie and he’ll pitch a 26 save shutout.

Thanks! That was humiliating for the NYR. And the NVMC exploded on the 10th goal. The NYR players and management complained about it big time. That game was the start of a 5 year fumigation of NYR fans from the arena.
The NHL is considering changes in 3 on 3 OT. One thing is they're thinking of instituting a shot clock in order to prevent circling back past the red line. That would destroy Mat Barzal's approach to 3 on 3s

NHL reportedly considering rule changes surrounding its 3-on-3 overtime format
The NHL is discussing adding NBA-esque rules like a shot clock or something resembling a half-court violation to prevent players from circling back in OT.

Welp...until you put proper value on a win, it matters littler how OT plays out as it is a bit of a sham as is. Matters little what you do in OT or how you play it as the point structure now is. Would be a big difference how many teams play out the last 5-10 minutes of a game if they lost a point by not winning in regulation...and wold make the season more exciting.
Essentially, as is, i do not have to win in regulation to get 2 points = a bit of a sham, whether 3 on 3, with re-setting, not re-setting, shot clock or or shoot out.
