OOT Scoreboard 2024-25 season

[Bleedred]

I don’t remember if I posted this on here or not, but it’s something that I’ve been thinking about for the last week or so.

The current Pens remind me of what happened to us in the final season of Lou. When the wheels finally fell off. We had been narrowly missing the playoffs for 2 years in a row. Pittsburgh missed even more narrowly the last years than we did before the wheels fell off.

But the wheels seem to have come off now.

I wonder if we see a coaching staff called the P. Bench before the season ends?

Utah all over Carolina in the third, 3-1. Kochetkov chased.

Edit: 4-1.

Edit redux. Carolina with 7 minutes of PP. WTF.

Games in hand are great to have but you actually have to win those for them to mean anything. Devils are in the driver's seat being ahead of these teams with more condensed schedules coming up while they have some easier scheduling after playing 1/4th of their schedule in a month practically.

He looked like he got hurt too on the 2nd Utah goal, wonder if they rush Freddy back but I haven't seen an update there in regards to what's going on

7 minute powerplay courtesy of the NHL's total inability to even want to police players from instigating fights, so Carcone feels a brush from an opponent after he makes a big hit and assumes it's someone who wants to fight and just starts punching away.

But yeah, nice to see some of the division lose for once.

Instigator needs to go, it's such a dumb rule and it's not even cut/dry seeing some refs applying it in different ways

God Damn lol

Sooo, Utah did to Carolina what we did to Florida basically?

No

Not even remotely comparable

The instigator is a necessary rule, it just needs to be enforced, and it should be enforced with a one-game suspension. It is extremely selectively enforced because the league wishes to encourage fighting, which is stupid.

Not really. Utah and no business winning that game. We at least were keeping up with Florida and outplaying them at points.

Panthers had a good first ten minutes. Devils closed the 1st period with great special teams.

Panthers blitzed Devils in first half of second period.

Devils outplayed Panthers in second half of second period.

Devils played fantastic shutdown defense in the 3rd and created great scoring chances which led to a 3-1 lead.

Panthers blitzed the Devils in the final 3 mins with goalie pulled.

For folks who didn’t watch ^ Can’t assume things from just a highlight package. They played a solid road game against the best team in the league.

I'm not sure what you're meaning here but I said as much without less words.

I was reinforcing your statement because Unseen didn’t watch the gm

In a sports league now that's absurdly bang bang and you can't tell what happened until a replay is shown, you don't need to go over and pummel a guys face in as it happened. You can just take someone's number and wait for something later on or even go after their stars (what we should've done with Rempe last year btw). The instigator is just a newer thing because guys are more prone to fighting guys ASAP as opposed to waiting like they did in the older days and getting revenge later which is arguably smarter since refs won't penalize that in most likelihood

 

[Zajacs Bowl Cut]

Vasilevskiy won his 300th tonight. Fastest to do it. He is 30 years old.

Still not even halfway to Marty's total lol

 

[Saugus]

McDavid scored his 1000th career point tonight, a goal against Nashville.

I know he’s Hockey McJesus and all, but holy crap that was crazy fast to hit that milestone. Feels like it was only a few years ago he entered the league.

 

[Emperoreddy]

Also don't look now, but 1st in the conference and 2nd in the league...just ignore games played and point percentage

I was thinking about it when I saw it.

"Thats a cool record. I feel like he's been in the league forever though"
"Maybe there just isn't much 300 game winners"
"Oh yea, goalies just don't play as much games anymore."

Its crazy that Vasi is at this pace age wise when he's had one of the highest workloads in the league during the past decade.

Starting to feel like Boston might be in real trouble; Ottawa and Buffalo are finally waking up a little bit, the Atlantic's pretty evenly matched by a lot of metrics. Islanders likely dropping off makes room for the Devils to return, but Boston slipping would give one of those young teams a chance to slip in. Will also help them that the Metro doesn't look primed to have five teams make it this year given how big a drop off in quality there is after Devils/Rags/Canes/Caps so far.

If the Bruins make the playoffs, it'll be because they stumbled their way in drunk. They don't look good and the Sens and Sabres have more upside.
