Well, we were due a clunker.

Hopefully this is his swan song. Thanks for that game in Pittsburgh earlier this season, but moving on...

Let's pretend that period never happened, yes?

They were buzzing around the net most of the first period, this period they seem to be settling for low percentage crap instead of trying to set anything up.

Too many shots from distance.

Well this has taken an unfortunate turn. They've been resilient the past two months, let's see if they can bounce back...

Offsides.

I have no time for Bryson. Fitz has at least mixed it up with the opposition some this year, so he can be a passable 7th dman, though ideally he's passed over next year.

Well, balls.

This has become a good hockey team. Bruins have been playing great lately and the boys have outplayed them this far IMO.

Well, at last Jack can go into the offseason secure in the knowledge that he did everything he could, strapping that Knights team on his back with a valiant six game run where he put up... *checks notes* ...zero goals, 1 assist... *shuffles papers* ONE point? In six games? One Goddamn point? And he was a minus 5? Ah, the hell with it...

Vegas is terrible in shootouts, cripes.

Great teammate, that Jack.

The Yotes came back and beat the Wild in St. Paul tonight by scoring 4 in the 3rd. Maybe they've decided not to be an automatic out? 😦

He's been booty juice this year. Minnesota lost at home to the Yotes by surrendering 4 goals in the 3rd. What in the actual ferk?

Yes. Barring a 2011 Red Sox or 1995 Angels level collapse, their goose is essentially cooked.

God, I hate Dallas. Useless shitgibbons.

Oilers just spanked the Pens 5-1 in Pittsburgh. Edmonton has been a totally different team under Woodcroft. Will be interesting to see if that carries over into the postseason.

Scouts said the Dominator lacked size, fundamentals and was too unorthodox. No, I'm not saying Levi is going to be Hasek. I'm saying scouts are wrong about goaltenders all the time. Hardest position to project to the NHL. I've never been high on Portillo, but I'm an even worse prognosticator the the scouts.

Two months ago, I'd have been all aboard trading Mitts. Now not so much. He's not putting stats up in the boxscore, but he's been doing all of that stuff that doesn't show up on the stats sheets that good teams have unsung guys doing. Mitts has been our best guy on the boards the last couple of months, IMO.

Fair point.

Same. It took a lot to not register and start shitposting when i saw the guy say Jack was a top-3 player n the league when healthy. I was as big an Eichel fanboy as there was (I still have 3 of his jerseys hanging in my closet 🥴) and I never made any kind of claim like that.

If Jack was still on the team we would have still struggled and would have never come out of that nosedive we were in before the AS break. Jack would've been sulking and brought the whole team down with him.
