Dewar Posted April 28, 2016 Share Posted April 28, 2016 My Western Conference bracket is a total shitshow. Good thing only six people entered, I can't finish any lower than sixth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dewar Posted April 28, 2016 Share Posted April 28, 2016 Okay, everyone who didn't pick Washington to win is fucked. The only points I can still get are on the Eastern side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elizium Posted April 28, 2016 Share Posted April 28, 2016 That bracket isn't even the worst of it. In my hockey pool I have one player left and its fucking Chimera. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charlie M. Posted April 29, 2016 Share Posted April 29, 2016 This game has been a blast! Glad it's going to OT. Don Cherry looking like Enzo Amore tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sabremike Posted April 29, 2016 Share Posted April 29, 2016 NHLN just had a top 10 moments of the first round, and 6 of them were from the Isles-Cats series. Really think that was one of the great first round series of all time, only went 6 but every game was basically a one goal game (take away the empty netters) and you had 3 OT's and 2 were double OT. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Man Known as Dan Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 Blues coming out so flat left a bad feeling, then we score and let them get a quicker right back. Blah. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Death From Above Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 Man, Nashville worked hard last night and got nothing to show for it. I think that's likely to be the story of how that series goes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jiji Posted May 4, 2016 Share Posted May 4, 2016 I am having a hard time remembering a year with playoffs this consistently great. Just fantastic game after fantastic game. That Weber shot was unreal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Man Known as Dan Posted May 4, 2016 Share Posted May 4, 2016 Well, that game was pretty kickass. Do it again in game 4 and then in game 5. Also, I fucking love Ryan Reaves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hammerva Posted May 5, 2016 Share Posted May 5, 2016 Well Caps down 3-1 and another season looks to be down the drain. Holtby is going to get the blame but he has been hit with terrible luck on Game 3 and 4. I mean what the fuck was Mike Weber doing with that lazy pass. Unfortunately they have a history of being lazy at the wrong time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jiji Posted May 5, 2016 Share Posted May 5, 2016 And it's great. Just ban crap Canadian teams from the playoffs because we know they aren't winning anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Death From Above Posted May 5, 2016 Share Posted May 5, 2016 Old men are very upset that an analytics person has a job today. My favourite was noted white noise blowhole PIerre McGuirre saying they tried analytics in Toronto and it didn't work. Toronto put an analytics guy in charge of the Marlies. They finished first. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jiji Posted May 5, 2016 Share Posted May 5, 2016 I like the hire generally speaking (yay, numbers!) but I do think it's a bit hastened due to an apparent lack of experience. He's had one year as an assistant. I'm sure he was soaking everything in and he's obviously a bright guy if he's achieved so much in such little time, but we've heard over and over that the league is a bit of an old boys club. Still, I'm envious. I'll go back into the spider hole with the guy that had this article written about him recently. (We're in the wrong thread, right?)

Tabe Posted May 5, 2016 Share Posted May 5, 2016 Some team also tried the Pierre McGuire method, too. That netted them a 23-37 record and a captain saying their coach getting fired was the best thing ever. It also netted them an ex-coach who gave confidential scouting reports to another team (say bye bye to half that salary, Pierre!) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sabremike Posted May 5, 2016 Share Posted May 5, 2016 Go Google the Jeff Jacobs article from the Courant when we finally fired that moron. He is without doubt the worst coach in the entire history of pro hockey in the state of Connecticut (and that includes the Whalers, SoundTigers, Wolfpack, Trashers, Danbury Whalers, Danbury Titans and CT Whale women's team).
