OOT Scoreboard 2024-25 season

[ZachaFlockaFlame]

As shitty as last year was I can't honestly remember the atmosphere ever being THIS toxic other than perhaps the MacLoser season when Lou tried to get some guys (re: Langs) out and Kovalsuck was benched a game for missing team meetings, but that season was kind of an extension of the end of 2010-11 when Langs got all hissy about Lemaire wanting to take away the C for a preseason game, among other things.

Only thing close was this game I can remember in recent time :



Ironically enough, it was against NYR too. Every goal was either a PPG or SHG for NYR besides the empty net. That was around the time questions of Hall's future were being questioned (Literally a Taylor's leaving chant in that game too....), second straight year of being ass after 17/18, Jack having a rough start (most of us knew he'd be fine but there was still a worry when the points would come). Then you have the whole playing NYR at Prudential which can get very messy during blowout games. Oh and baldy's job security being questioned right after he got extended earlier in the year. At least the jerseys were elite in that game

The crazy thing with Luke was his September birthday, you were drafting a 17 year old. I remember Power as a pretty much as consensus #1, maybe there was a little hype for Beniers. STI has talked at length about how the hockey community equates size and skating ability with defensive ability when it comes to drafting defensemen, but they're separate. That said, I do remember STI being pretty confident in Power and felt he was a worthy #1.

I do remember him also saying that while Power and Beniers have a lot of the things NHL teams look for in lottery picks, the margin between them and the other guys in the top 9 were very thin and there were definitely teams with other guys at #1 on their board. I think he had Luke as the #1 prospect and said he definitely would have been in the convo if he hadn't missed half the season.

I don’t see anything particularly good about Spencer Knight. Maybe down the road, but certainly not right now.

There’s gonna be two softy of the night goals for tonight, because one was a hilariously bad giveaway, which this one particular goalie just did the other night and now he’s done it again. And it was beyond a blooper reel goal.

And then there was this really awful floater on Knight that was beyond lousy. He’s off his angle, he’s way deep in his net. The Backlund goal was really bad. I don’t see many that bad. The Coleman goal was also bad.

What kind of sick bastard posts Hynes’ era brutal home losses to the Rags?

Here’s his list.

He did have Power at #1 and Luke at #5.
