NHL: Around the League 49

[DisgruntledHawkFan]

Koskinen should finish out playoffs as Oilers #1

Smith is awful and last night it was Koskinen who gave his team chance (Smith gave up 6 goals, Koskinen just 1) and unfortunately the one he gave up was #7 of game so he takes the undeserved loss

The goals Smith gives up are some of the softest/worst seen in playoffs

As bad as Smith is Koskinen is worse.

Watching the game on a slight delay ..... that defensive breakdown by TB on the first goal has been with this team this season; Vasi has usually bailed them out.

The women on these telecasts tend to get a lot of grief and negative reviews, but I like Emily Kaplan.

 

[BobbyJet]

Vasi with a stacked-pad save. Love this guy.

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

Panarin makes it 5-2 Rangers to start 3rd

 

[BobbyJet]

For a second I thought Sherst was shot.

Yeah, she's pretty good.

I don't like Hextall because her voice sounds like a computer.

 

[No Fun Shogun]

Rags have this one in the bag.

 

[hawksrule]

Tampa’s not even paying attention.

 

[DisgruntledHawkFan]

Yeah, she's pretty good.

I don't like Hextall because her voice sounds clike a computer.

Her voice is jarring.

I was repeatedly told that the NYR weren't a proper rebuild, and that they are frauds. OK.

They were supposed to trade Zibanejad and Panarin for second and third round picks. A team can't possibly rebuild and keep anyone over 22.

 

[Drumman44]

We could have hired Gallant

A damn near impossible model to follow though given how they acquired their key players.

A damn near impossible model to follow though given how they acquired their key players.

1. Be one of the premiere cities to live on Earth and attract premiere talent.
2. Fall ass backwards into getting a 1D from another team since he will only sign with you
3. Get two lottery picks (actually these two are somewhat underperforming)
4. Have the next Carey Price in goal

absolutely impossible

Fox (Norris) for a 2nd and 3rd, Shesterkin (Vezina) 4th round pick, Lafreniere 1st overall (lottery from 11th to 1st), Kakko 2nd overall (lottery from 6th to 2nd), Panarin best UFA picked destination.

Wasn’t Trouba also dead set on signing with them?

Trouba made it very known that he wanted to be traded and go to an American team. They did give up a 1st and Pionk for him tho.

The series is far from over though. Tampa will turn it on as the series goes along

Yeah. Tampa will get better.

 

[CourtneyDagger50]

I feel bad for Leah Hextall. She gets A LOT of hate online.

That said - her voice is very unpleasant to my ears on PBP. She's not as bad between the benches.

 

[x Tame Impala]

Smith suuuuucks

 

[x Tame Impala]

Oilers suck too. Get some composure fellas!

 

[DisgruntledHawkFan]

Well that got out of hand quick

 

[Hattrick Kane]

I’d much rather Jones at 9.5 than Nurse at 9.25. Nurse is a third pairing dman.
