Why the hell am I watching hockey on a Wednesday night? I need to leave Minnesota

 

[silverwheels]

shitting

 

[Irishman]

I'm kinda done with this bullshit.

 

[CJ_24]

Basketball could use the self-policing that hockey players have. The hockey players don't take no bullshit; it keeps the game cleaner

 

[silverwheels]

Tkachuk is such a cocksucker.

 

[Irishman]

I want Kane to try and fight Lucic at some point this series.

 

[CJ_24]

Every time I see @silverwheels post about the oilers, it sounds like they're losing by 8 goals

This result is my fault. I take the blame

 

[Irishman]

Well... all them Tkachuks are assholes.

 

[silverwheels]

Battle of Alberta, babby!

 

[silverwheels]

I don't know if I can take 3 more games of that.

 

[Irishman]

Next game will probably be 2-0.

 

[silverwheels]

I will shit my butt if either Oilers goalie can hold the Flames to 2 goals the whole game.

 

[silverwheels]

Watching Florida is painful.

 

[kella]

By my ount Florida did not score a goal of import that was not

1. total junk scrum in front of net
2. off of a critical and unforced error by the Caps
3. or both

since...game 4

They need to get a lot faster. I love Ovi but he is not a 5on5 player at this point.

Oh it's worse than this. Panthers didn't score a PPG against the Caps at all. They were like 0 for 19. And they won the series!

 

[Rutgers Mike]

BOB

 

[silverwheels]

LMAO Florida

 

[kella]

Please based western conference do not constantly shoot yourself in the foot against the Lightning in the finals

 

[goblue96]

Playoff BOB = BUM

 

[Irishman]

That was brutal.

 

[Irishman]

Avs looked pretty average tonight.

 

[silverwheels]

Bowness stepped down in Dallas.

 

[Irishman]

I'm not surprised. He's been at this a long time and I'm not sure he's going to be the guy that gets more out of that team going forward. New blood makes sense.

 

[silverwheels]

Are we still in the "Let's keep shuffling the same 20 corches around every team" era or will they hire some actual new blood?

 

[Irishman]

Lol I'm not sure what Dallas will do. The Islanders bucked that trend though. I'm sure the BUMS will hire a retread, but maybe they'll surprise me. No idea who Vegas thinks they'll get.

 

[goblue96]

Would the BUMS hiring Tocchet be considered a retread?

 

[Irishman]

If Trotz or DeBoer are available and they hire Toch...oof.

 

[goblue96]

This is the BUMS we talking about. Being a former BUM trumps everything!

 

[Irishman]

Oh I get it. Maybe they should bring Holmgren back.

 

[goblue96]

Hextall could be available to take over as GM. His act is already wearing thin in PISSBURGH

I love Ron the goalie. His 15-year plan to bring home the Cup, not so much.

 

[silverwheels]

I guess WINNING THE PRESS CONFERENCE happens in hockey, too.

 

[Irishman]

The dude's swagger was in full effect.

 

[silverwheels]

Y'all don't wanna see the squad!

 

[adchester]

Sports fan fucking suck. Evander Kane has proved he's a trash human like 50 times over but one press conference means we should pay him millions of dollars lol

 

[Rutgers Mike]

This is the BUMS we talking about. Being a former BUM trumps everything!

Is Joel Quenneville an option or is he toxic?

 

[goblue96]

Is Joel Quenneville an option or is he toxic?

I haven’t seen his name mentioned. So, likely toxic.

 

[Brick]

OH NAME CALLING

this kiszla guy makes JOHN seem like ernest hemingway

 

[Rutgers Mike]

I haven’t seen his name mentioned. So, likely toxic.

Saw this on wikipedia
"According to a formal NHL statement, Bettman, the Panthers, and Quenneville mutually agreed that "it was no longer appropriate" for Quenneville to stay on. Bettman also announced that Quenneville will have to meet with him before he is allowed to work in the NHL again. "

With this group, I don't think it matters who the Flyers hire. I'd rather bring up Ian Laperriere from Lehigh Valley then go with Rick "one playoff appearance in 6 years*) Tocchet

*. COVID 24 team playoff season

 

[Irishman]

Carolina is completely blanketing the Rags in this game. This is like defensive hockey porn.

fuck the Rangers

 

[Rutgers Mike]

Aho!

 

[Irishman]

That game was unreal. Carolina just clogged the neutral zone all night.

 

[goblue96]

Too bad Brind Amour won't be available for the BUMS!

 

[Rutgers Mike]

is it just me, or does Buccigross suck as a PBP guy

 

[silverwheels]

Smith already off to a better start than Game 1! Fuckin' nutsack.

 

[goblue96]

It's not you, @Rutgers Mike

 

[Rutgers Mike]

Smith already off to a better start than Game 1! Fuckin' nutsack.

get the hook ready

 

[silverwheels]

Great defense, fuckheads.

 

[Irishman]

is it just me, or does Buccigross suck as a PBP guy

Yeah, he's brutal.
