***** Montreal won yet again; of course they have to go on a 5 game win streak….. All the other teams around us have behaved and have been mediocre and yet the Canadiens have just refused to lose game after game. Now to get in, we must go undefeated and Montreal must not get more than 2 pts.

Do love winning, after a slow 1st the Sabres gave Boston a beating and that was fun to see. Zucker’s goal was hilarious

Tuch!

Last time he was looked past for a "playoff race" was the year we fell 1 short and Levi stole the show. UPL did however come back gangbusters the following year.

Well either Pittsburgh or Boston will get McKenna. Pittsburgh will transition from Crosby to him Boston will draft McKenna and sign Eichel to some outrageous contract and bounce back. Because in the end regardless of what we do, we can't ever rely on getting any good luck falling our way and for it not to endlessly boost our peerage.

The latter part is luck

If your child wants to go, then any personal boycott should be void for those purposes

Goalies are young until 28/29; they're weird like that Wolf in CGY is a solid blueprint to run with for Levi. Small goalie who dominating in the AHL prior to coming to CGY. After Ullmark sure, but there aren't exactly starting goalies just raining from the heavens. Aside from Markstrom it has primarily been overpaid sieves and disappointing youngsters traded. Most goalies do from time to time, but I'd like him in Rochester most of next year anyway.

Florida ***** you

Seems to be a running trend, they take 50 to 60 games to get going and then they actually start playing. Now partly it’s the less stressful playing out the string but they did this during the year they barely fell short.

***** Florida blew the lead with under 10 seconds

God if only we were a bit closer, we are getting that late season surge with absurd goaltending

Typically it’s the opposite due to playoff races

That was a penalty but Kulich’s was hooked like three times as he went down the ice with no call. Plus I felt like the crowd convinced the ref more than anything

4v4

Seriously this is how you want to respond? You're going to grab a bunch of old quotes and ask the same thing? As for the Lehner thing, I was genuinely concerned about his mental health and was curious about how everyone else saw it. Honestly, why would anyone on this board want to hear about Eichel having success anywhere else? It's like getting a constant reminder of your ex and how their doing; I, and many others here, don't give a flying ***** Eichel is doing anything good. You perpetual insistence on bringing Eichel up at every turn is nothing short of obsessive; he wasn't even mentioned on this thread for quite some time and yet you always feel the need to re-insert him into the conversation like some mustache twirling villain with a vendetta against the rest of the forum. If you need to lather praise on Eichel so bad, go find a VGK forum and do it there. If this was merely to talk about future Selke hopefuls then Barkov & Eichel shouldn't have been the lone mentioned players but we all know you just like to stick our faces in the mud anytime you can in regards to Eichel.

And we need this info why exactly?

There are plenty of people who get annoyed by his or Thompson’s more generic answers.

He’s said that 10 million times already.

Frankly I don’t know what he’s supposed to say without it being ridiculed.

Oh I agree; I was merely saying that if there's one what-if that holds water its regarding Dahlin.

The one what-if I'll give credence to is the Dahlin one. If Dahlin doesn't reaggravate his back spasms we likely win that first game against Colorado and don't go on a 13 game losing streak. Even just flipping 4 games and making it 4-6-3 instead of 0-10-3 would put us 1 back of the 2WC. Frankly though the whole conference is rather sad seeing as the WC2 in the West has 10 more points than the WC2 in the East. Its also an indictment on the roster for having 1 player be such a lynchpin to wins versus losses

Only reason they kep the puck in the zone, guy full stick on skate Bernard-Docker to the ice and the ref just looked at it and said “nah”

BS, no trip call behind the net
