It's really unreal. Caps put the beat down like crazy.
So happy someone pounded the Canes finally. You figure they are also overreaching, but maybe that is my wishfulness.

The thing is we are right there with those teams. They beat the Sharks tonight they move into a virtual tie on pts% with the Caps and Rangers and would be a half game back of the Canes.
The team is in very good shape.

The Canes are monsters this year because they added speed with all their new additions. Their system with speed is a just grinding machine, they are the best team in the NHL right now.
The comparative lack of offensive stars isn’t a problem and their depth is insane.
Their 4th line is bonkers great, they will most likely destroy us because we can’t match up with a team that can role four tough lines like that.
At some point they will suffer some injuries. Hopefully they lose man games like last year’s Devils and even more.

Wishing misfortune on them is one strategy lol.
They’re shooting hot right now, so the goals will eventually become harder to come by for Carolina. Their goaltending is also somewhat suspect.
Their possession game and depth will remain terrifying, unless they get a bunch of injuries, but there’s no reason to assume that will happen.
Why wish misfortune on them? A smart team would impose misfortune on them. Ask me how.

Made a new friend, Sabres win.
The first Calgary goal was absurd as the ref clearly put his arm up to call matching minors but allowed play to continue. The excuse that it had no impact on the play was also bullshit as Byram was our guy being penalized and him being out of the play is what led to the blown coverage on the goal. Just happy to get the 2 points as 3 point games with an out of conference foe are fine by me.

Until the playoffs anyway, you can’t scheme goals as much when you’re only playing good teams that are scouting you more throughly.

I'm not watching that game or anything, but there's no way in hell there isn't a Fire Sully (or Dubas lol) chant after that period.

Pens are going to win the draft lotto unfortunately
although, the rest of their roster is so terrible that it won't matter for awhile

I don't know how Sullivan's gonna survive this.
And they're probably gonna bring in Quenneville and I think people are really gonna revolt against that. That may actually turn most fans against Dubas at that point, at least the ones who haven't already turned on him.
Or maybe I just have too much faith in my fellow hockey fans and humanity.

I'll always remember Brendan Smith's resurgence mid season to look like a competent 4th liner last year.
That breakaway goal, and also the stadium series goal. We could actually use a 4th line Brendan Smith right now.

Finally a Jets team in NY that isn’t a disaster

The Caps not being dookie is annoying, but the bottom half of the Metro is nothing to be concerned about with Pitt flaming out and waving the white flag.
Atlantic has a bunch of middling teams too. No reason for us not be missing the playoffs this year

I'd be lying I wasn't laughing at these jokes + what ESPN did tonight. Felt bad for Bob though lol
7 of the Islanders 16 games this year have gone to OT.
I love that they are so obviously built to get to OT but that they do not have the horses, at all, to win in that game state.

Hell of an early game tonight on TNT. Pittsburgh vs Detroit lol.
Old, slow and bad vs mediocre and boring.
I guess it was that or the Leafs vs Capitals and the Caps were old, slow and boring last year. They probably didn't know Pittsburgh would be THIS bad and that Capitals wouldn't be much less boring this year.
And Canada/SportsNet probably has dibs on the Leafs game.
I'm sure someone somewhere is arguing that it's becuz winning culture and they just know how to hang around and get points by any means possible and Lou and whatever lol.

It's hilarious how they can get to OT whether it's a low scoring or a high scoring game.
