No great teams, but some good teams. Carolina is good, but just like most years, not 'good enough' to be a dominant team. Washington is good. Not great, but solid. New Jersey is good. But they just can't get Jack Hughes to be healthy enough to challenge 'great'. Actually, I thought there would be more. Thats all I have. Quote

It is more that it is a "good indicator" Every year, at least two teams per conference that were NOT in a playoff spot by american Thanksgiving make it in. Last year Montreal was in dead last and rallied to make the playoffs. Do I think the Sabres will do that this year? Not really - but it could happen, I suppose. Quote

St. Pete Gogolak Posted Thursday at 02:51 PM Report Posted Thursday at 02:51 PM All the talk in the Penguin game thread about goaltenders needing to steal a game here and there. Islanders outshot the Bruins 45 - 14 last night. Boston wins 3 - 1. Swayman 44 saves. 1 Quote

Seattle played Dallas dead even last night. Just lost on a late goal. They're good though. Basically the same as they were. Only one gets out of the division. 1 Quote

Islanders outshot the Bruins 45 - 14 last night. Boston wins 3 - 1. Swayman 44 saves. Swayman was very good but shots were mostly from far out, sight lines were open, net front was largely controlled, most plays were one and done. Team D is very good on the Bruins. If they find more scoring they could surprise. As is I doubt they are a playoff team either. The biggest contrast for me with the Sabres would be to watch a guy like Zadorov in front of their net and compare it with Power. Power will skate towards a player and maybe put his stick out to try to get the puck. Zadorov has his body right on the guy, he's muscling him out or tying him up and if he can't he will lift the guys stick off the ice to neutralize him. Watching him battle a strong guy like Anders Lee was a beautiful lesson on defense. 1 Quote

LTS Posted 9 hours ago Report Posted 9 hours ago It's these moments that cement the best stories. There's no great play by Palmieri here. He's a forgotten man but on his way to the end of his career he makes what likely becomes his career defining play. I love it because while it's a once in a lifetime moment, he made it happen. I hate it because I don't like seeing players end their careers on injuries. I'd love to think he'll be back but he's pushing the age. He's 34 (I had to look it up). I wish him the best, but if this was his moment.. damn what a moment. He's from Smithtown, NY. It's Lon Gisland... but I'll throw him some love for this moment only. 🙂 1 Quote
Ross Rhea Posted 3 hours ago Report Posted 3 hours ago Bizaar stat is as of this AM, 18 out of 32 teams are at even/zero or negative goal differential. Just an odd stat I noticed. Quote

Just an odd stat I noticed. To me its not unexpected at all. zero is neutral obviously...3 teams at at zero. Of who is left...14 are positive, 15 are negative. That is about as close to even as I would expect. Quote
