Charlie M. 1,849 Posted November 3, 2014 I would just like to note how refreshing the Canucks are this year. No drama at all from the front office to the coach to the goalie. Sure, it might result in a first round playoff exit but they cause me so much less grief. Calgary is such a weird fucking team, eh? Three of their four leading scorers are defensemen.

Tabe 1,817 Posted November 3, 2014 Detroit loses a shootout to Buffalo. Not a great effort but good enough to win. Then we get a replay of earlier games - a game-winning Detroit goal waved on a B.S. goalie interference call followed by a typical Jimmy Howard shootout disaster. It's unreal how awful he is in shootouts. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dewar 2,095 Posted November 3, 2014 Jets take 7 out of 8 points on a four game road trip, and gave up 1 goal in the last three games of the trip. Defense? When did they learn how to play defense? Still need to work on the goalscoring though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You have to actually hinder the goalie which Franzen didn't. No contact at all. That said, if Babcock says it was the right call, I'll concede the point.

Death From Above 3,707 Posted November 3, 2014 Taylor hall out 2-4 weeks with a knee sprain so I look forward to not seeing one of Eberle, Perron, or Yakupov moved to the left side so RANDOM PEOPLE can be Edmonton's first line left wing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sabremike 2,177 Posted November 5, 2014 Blues win there 6th in a row. We are winning seemingly only Tarasenko and Goaltending"Game was a total crapfest, made even worse by hordes of people who got comps and didn't give two fucks that they were at a hockey game. Blues at least have the excuse that half their team is injured and that they played the night before. Don't know what the Devils excuse is other than that they are dreck.

Charlie M. 1,849 Posted November 5, 2014 Jim Benning: genius? *shrug* I still don't like Ryan Miller's face. We'll see how it all plays out but I think the difference between Bonino and Kesler might be quite slim because Kesler might not be able to physically get back to his peak. Bonino is what he is. Kesler's most productive years came while playing like a lunatic. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Death From Above 3,707 Posted November 5, 2014 So Marc-Andre Fleury gets a sizable extension. I'm not really sure what to make of him anymore. You look at his regular season numbers, on the whole they match up with basically anyone you want to name, looks good. But... you see him get the yips in the playoffs, and I just don't know.
