Vegas is playing the same schedule no ? Both teams got screwed. Apparently the Canucks asked the league to move it to sat. Night but Gary knows best.

Van outshot badly in the second period.

Vancouver and Vegas have switched rolls from last game. Vancouver making it look easy. Timely goals and some good goaltending from Markstrom.

I liken Casey to playdough so make of him what you will.

Same for me. The formula is simple. Examples throughout the league yet the pegulas stumble on.

Armia looks like a player

I’m with you on this lou. If any of the better or top echelon teams bows out early and lands the #1 pick its criminal. Should have stuck with the same formula however disfunctional it seemed. I get the feeling Gary Bettman would like to personally handpick the lucky recipient each year.

Makes no sense. And what of the teams that were so putrid, so filthy bad, so disgustingly incompetent that they couldn’t even limp their way into the playoffs ? Nada ? I no understand this system of snakes and ladders.

What in tarnation is going on ? Are we locked in at 8 or whatever but teams eliminated from this qualifying round of the playoffs can now move up to number 1 ? What the holy hell is going on ?

R.I.P. One of my Dads favorites. Always entertaining.

Yeah. Stick a fork in it.

Either fun or ringworm?

It was 1975 for me and I was 10. Played minor hockey and wore #11. Loved the french connection and everything sabres. My younger brother was an isles fan. I liked Led Zeppelin , he liked AC/DC. You get the picture. Been hooked ever since. This last oh decade has been real hard to carry on with the love. The years keep slipping by and nothing seems to change. But I’m always hopefull.

Cool. I’ve been wanting to check that show out but am caught up in Animal Kingdom right now. Love the Headstones.

April 5/94. I wore the flannel in the early 80s. Highschool. Cobain / Seattle stole that look from me lol. Theres an area of Nanaimo called Harewood that at one time was considered the wrong side of the tracks. They call the flannel a Harewood dinner jacket. Now back to your regular programming.

Make it so #1.

Its not surprising Bettman , Daley and the NHL braintrust came up with this daft lottery that makes little to no sense in its function or its fairness. Well done gentlemen, well done. That wasn’t a typo.

Dag nabbit the curse it lives

I’ve heard of some revolting incidents of hazing from a friend who played in the junior ranks of hockey and is now a police officer. I won’t get into it in detail but its sexual in nature which is prolly the most dehumanizing way to haze a younger, naive and vulnerable person. I’m not sure if this destructive form of bullying and abuse is still happening but I doubt its gone completely. Repulsive is a good word for the shite I’ve heard about.

First wave second wave its all a blur. But I doubt we see hockey.

Finishing the season or starting the 24 team playoffs is a pipedream. Nothing is starting up till 2021. That second wave is already rolling through. Gary Bettman can go pound sand. Maybe the Pegulas foresee a no go scenario with the startup and pulled the rug on employees for that eventuality. They weren’t in it anyways.

Now we sit back and watch Terry and Kim rebuild a hockey team.?

And rightfully so

Yeah this crossed my mind as well. Hockey heaven indeed.

I kind of feel like we just got passed by a whole bunch of veteran drivers and we’ve handed the wheel to a sixteen year old who just got his licence.
