Winning the division would be nice.
Winnipeg and Washington are having great seasons but I’d be surprised if either team made it out of the second round.

This would be fine if it happened more often.
You guys are annoying. When he plays well, you act like he's prime Hasek. When he plays poorly, it's all on the defense.

Also lol at the Flames.
In a year where they could have sold Andersson for a massive haul, they’re gonna end up buying at the deadline and finishing as a bubble team.

since the lockout, Presidents Trophy winner has won the Cup just twice in 19 years
8 out of 37 presidents trophy winning teams have won a cup
The next closest is teams that finish 4th in the league with 6 cup wins
No other individual spot has more than 4 wins.

If you read the GDT you’d know why. It was full of posts complaining about Skinner while he was by all accounts playing a really great game.

I think the rate of President trophy winners winning the Stanley Cup is around 25%. Those are pretty good odds considering 16 teams are in the playoffs.

acknowledging he played well doesn't mean we think he's Hasek FFS
so 29 non-Presidents trophy winners have won the Cup...

Because he was not great in the 1st.
My problem with any of it is that when he plays like ass, admit he's playing like ass.
I can freely admit when he plays well. It doesn't happen enough for a team with cup aspirations. His top end talent is tremendous, his problem has always been consistency. Dude is basically Bouchard in goalie gear. World beater or dogshit, nothing in between.
The issue for me is that people actually defended his play against the Capitals. It's hard to take anyone take seriously when you they do that.
Right. In 16 years of playoffs, one of 16 spot has won the cup twice... And somehow that's bad?
That's like well within statistical expectations.
What a terrible take. Welcome to ignore.Say what you guys want, Skinner still shit his pants on the first goal. Guy's f***ing awful and shouldn't have been started considering how bad he's been (and just in general) and the way Pickard played last game.
Thank the refs for keeping that team in the game. Prior to both penalties the Sabres were getting their heads caved in. This league is an absolute joke. Look off a clear trip on Hyman then call that penalty on Kapanen? Ridiculous. Don't give a dime to this crooked league. Pirate games on TV, don't buy merch and don't go to games! Only way things will ever change. Once again we get a single PP the whole game.Would love to see the stats on those for the past few years. I'd imagine we're way ahead of every other team in number of games with 1PP opp.

Winning the division gets you Minnesota or Colorado. Winning the conference gets you Calgary, Vancouver, St. Louis, or Utah.
I’m not sure if you’re serious or not.
I find rob brown to be one of the worst piece of $hit analysts in the business.

Gross, heading that Rob Brown is a Chiefs fan makes me dislike him more

because the team that doesn't win the President's Trophy has a better chance of winning than the team that does...

Also only 2 teams won both the cup and the presidents trophy in the cap era, that’s 2 in 19 years when you can spend to win or have the ability to keep dynasties together.
Uhh. No?
2 of 16 president trophy winners win the Stanley Cup - that's 12.5%.
14 of 240 not presidents trophy winners win the Stanley Cup - that's 5.8%.

that doesn't make sense, every non-President trophy winner since 2013 have won the Cup

Be interesting to see who gets taken out of the lineup when McDavid comesback. JSkinner and Kapanen have been decent the last 2 games.
