Saw the mic'd up and that shit is great. Wouldve loved to see binnington get punched in the face. That 2nd period might have been the most entertaining period in hockey this season. Also it's been fun watching the hawks in garbage time beat some great teams lately.

Have the Bruins been talked about enough yet?
It sucks that the B's and Habs only play each other 3 times this year.

Marchand took care of business after a cheap head shot on Bergeron.

Getting a lot more hockey on the TV in Truckee this season, and the best part--Pierre is gone.

Love seeing my Wild leading the central. Nice W last night vs the Av’s. Hope we don’t see them until round 2, not round 1.

Greatest time if the year is a few weeks away…playoff hockey.

They got some great goaltending.

Rangers vs Lightning is a real war.

**evdog** · 04-06-2023, 01:34 AM

Must win for the Flames tonight and they came through for once. Now tied with the Jets who have a game in hand and more regulation wins for the tie breaker.

If there's one thing I hate in hockey it's retaliation for clean legal hits. In this case it was a teammate retaliating, but unless the guy who was hit is named McDavid or Pastrnak it's poor form. And fights where the aggressor keeps his helmet on (Perry) or the other guy doesn't want to fight and has no idea why he's being attacked (Maroon)--poor form. I've never liked the Lightning, iike them less now.

My strong feelings stem from childhood trauma--in college I caught a guy coming up the ice with the puck with his head down. Shoullder to the chest and cmpletely blew him up, and as I skated after the puck, while he was still lying on the ice he reached out his stick and tripped me. And no penalty was called. I've never gotten over it.

46.6 Helmets – No player may remove his helmet prior to engaging in a fight. If he should do so, he shall be assessed a two minute minor penalty for unsportsmanlike conduct. Helmets that come off in the course of and resulting from the altercation will not result in a penalty to either player.

That's what the rule says. The code says something else. In a fair fight the helmets come off as the fight is starting. Anyway, there is a lot of discretion re whether the helmet came off before or during. ust like the discrretion re how late after the puck is gone you can "finish your check," Didn't Perry get a game MC for that fight? It was hard to hear over the crowd noise.
I was reading about Fetisv--one of the Wing's Russian 5. One of his first games someone tried to pick a fight with him and he was like WTF. (Not his exact words.) He had no idea fighting was part of the NHL game. I've seen Chara dodge a fight with a much smaller player. Just pushed him away like I do my dog when she tries to jump up on me. Much more embarrasisng for the instigator than getting beat up.

Defending champs looking dangerous

**From_the_NEK** · 04-10-2023, 08:33 AM

Bruins set the season wins record. With two games remaining.

They better be shining up their golf clubs.

**evdog** · 04-10-2023, 10:46 AM

As long as they take out the leafs in the second round, I'm happy

They've got plenty of time. It seems to me like most teams kinda limp to the Presidents cup and are worn out by it. B's are getting healthier and stronger. So we'll see what happens.

**heckacali** · 04-10-2023, 01:46 PM

East wild card race down to the wire
Go Isles!

I don't know if they'll make it, or make it deep, but losing to Boston in the first round would suck the worst.

Maybe get Boston in the first round and soundly remind them how pissed they are that they were deprived of Barzal's talent for the end of the season....

Hoping Landeskog finally gets healthy, among others. I'm fairly hopeful. Unlike last year, I think the Avs have a goalie that could steal a game or two, rather than lose them.

**hooked** · 04-11-2023, 02:18 AM

I'd like to see the Sabres get a wild card slot. They are a couple years out but they need a taste.

The Sabres are one of those teams I would love to see them win a cup.

Looks like they may have found their goalie

Why's that?

Again - people complain "why do Leafs fans think everything is about them!??!! Waaahhhh!!!"
and then they make everything about the Leafs. One of the great paradoxes of our time.

And by the way, they won't have to. Boston's about to get bounced in Round 1. I got a bad feeling their mojo is gonna run out. Either that or they win the cup with a 16-2 playoff record. There can be no in-between.
