  1. I for one would definitely not enjoy this kind of hockey. I don't want finals that range into the 30+ goals a night which is what you'd get with these changes since the goalie would be nothing more than a glorified defenseman. I honestly value strategy and defensive play, aside from NJ who's system is ridiculously defensive, I have no problem with a team trying to play a bit more conservatively. So... I'd vote no on any of these ideas. I'm all for reducing pad sizes so they are less blimp like, but not to an extent where .750 save percentages are great.
  2. No thank you, you'd be turning it into 35 goal games and gimmicky style skill competitions.
  3. Ok, I'd give them a warning though.
  4. I think Stamkos goes elsewhere for a shorter term like 4 years, then heads to Toronto if they're good. Additionally the Leafs should be fined for collusion after that radio station debacle.
  5. I'd let his victims choose, why give humanity to someone who was inhumane to them. I couldn't care less what happens to the crook, but the victims may.
  6. Boring game from start to finish, someone needs to sit Kane aside and tell him he has teammates. Yet again bounces go against us, its amazing how no matter the situation of players on the ice, the puck never bounce to our guys. Well they do, but rarely.
  7. A great win, didn't expect the no overtime, but I'm happier for it! ROR racking up the goals and points. 1...2...We want 3!
  8. https://www.change.org/p/gary-bettman-and-the-nhlpa-nhl-end-the-coach-s-challenge?recruiter=76653672&utm_source=share_for_starters&utm_medium=copyLink I made a petition to end it.....
  9. Honestly we are cursed, no matter what we do, we lose. 9/10th of bounces go against us, goalies let in softies at inopportune times and sometimes it seems like even the refs are going after us.... Risto x3 God this kid is getting good.
  10. Reinhart and O'Reilly should invite Eichel to their O'Reilly practices, sure seems to be working wonders for those two.
  11. I'd say a little of both, they probably told ROR, if you knock 250k off your Cap Hit cost we'll give your brother a better contract. In this case he's got a 1 way contract instead of a 2-way contract even though he'll likely play few games up with the Sabres. Simultaneously COR isn't half bad himself, and is a solid locker room presence for our young crop of players in Roch. So it was a win-win for both sides. I can honestly see COR being an Amerk a long time, since ROR is down the street, the pay isn't bad, and he gets to be a leader. At least that's how I see it.
  12. Nice game from the 2nd on. Looked like Domi vs Buffalo the rest of the way. Everyone grab your hula hoops, we've got 2 more points!
  13. Risto would get PP time on multiple teams, he's a young stud whom is already better than the majority of defensemen in the NHL. Not quite in the Great or Elite category yet however. If he's your 3/4 D-man you have one hell of a team.
  14. Poor Carlo has a dented trachea! :o
  15. Love that top line, Rhinos and Kane! Best part is that Eichel isn't even on that line which spells good for the future.
  16. Zemgus and our 1st are off limits in my opinion, the team hasn't been anywhere near as deep with Girgs injured. The 1st because the draft is in Buffalo and I'd like to see us use the pick.
  17. #### Harrington, that is disgraceful. Bring it up with him off camera, or with the head of PR, not in the midst of an interview. Not to mention, the coach sort of has a more important job than any beat-reporter. One kinda facilitates the other even existing and is only 1.5 months into a season with a new team.
  18. For all we know its a round shaped gum container or candies.
  19. He actually does well with Peters when KS is off.
  20. To be honest small tweaks are all I want. The primary reason I hate NBA basketball is because it's just continuous scoring with little D. I like hockey games that are 3-2 4-3 not 10-9 because it makes goals deflated in its value.
  21. As did I, I read it as Bylsma sees Girgs as his Jordan Staal-esc player and that without him he loses that lockdown shutdown Center that frees up a top 2 line.
  22. Seriously? They'd need to throw in a pick at least to get the great Cola!
  23. Without a system we are nothing
  24. Upon capture they'd be considered traitors but would receive the proper judicial process. If they are fighting with the enemy then they are enemy combatants and need to be dealt with accordingly.
  25. The third was why I was disappointed, they outplayed SJS in the 3rd thus I was sad to see them not do the same in the OT.
