  1. Blame the market. Vancouver would never accept a boring non skilled heavy team. How much do we hear about how boring this team is. Second, it is not like JB didn't try. Every heavy meat and potato we get somehow all decided to start playing a skills game 8nstead.
  2. I won't read much into this game. The team was dead tired. Would have been different if this game was played tomorrow.
  3. With next season's late start and how the KHL usually ends things way earlier than the NHL. Pod has a great chance of suiting up for us late next season.
  4. Difference between us and the Oilers is that we have proven playoff performers in every important position, namely 1C, 2C, 1D, and Goal, instead of having just McDavid back in their run or heck even now as Draisaitl never even played in the actual playoffs yet. JB is gonna have an interesting summer trying to figure the complementary pieces out. We are close mainly due to having proven young core pieces in place at every crucial position.
  5. I think this season proved we are just one step below being legit contenders. This is gonna be a huge off season. I see us going to the finals in two or three years.
  6. For me it is his subbornness in firing his two assistants. Look at all the other teams that have at least one former nhl head coach as their assistants. Instead we have a newbie that frankly ain't very good and a recycled coach that seem to have once again worn out his welcome.
  7. Last I checked we played through one more round of playoff hockey and was not gifted a team that just rolled over in the first round. We got the defending champs in the first round and took Vegas a PP in the last 8min to win this series.
  8. Think we will. If nothing else, we exercised our demons against Vegas. This team can win in regulation against them now and the team knows it.
  9. I want either Philly or NYI. But at this time, anyone but Vegas. That whole franchise and fanbase are just jerks.
  10. Nope. We played through two tough series and went to seven in this. Vegas was only challenged this playoffs by us to all teams. This was like their first round.
  11. Nope. We would if we lost to the Blues in 6. This team is completely gassed. There was nothing left. We probably would have won if the game was tomorrow. Blame Bettman, NBC, and the Kentucky Derby. I for one will never watch a freaking horse race ever in my life.
  12. They were not playing scared. They just have nothing left. We played through three tough round of hockey while this is like the first round for Vegas with how easy chicago went down.
  13. Not the refs, the schedule. Then again, we brought that on ourselves for trying to virtual signal. I think this single game made me dislike BLM. (Fuming here so don't come after me).
  14. Silver lining here is we now get three month to rest, prepare, and for the young guys to refine their skills instead of barely a month and a half had we moved on. Frustrating, but our playoff road was just way too tough against a way more fresher team. It is not even Vegas is better, it is just we played way more tough hockey compared to Vegas that slept walked until this game.
  15. Once again Bettman helped his golden team. Just give Vegas the cup so we can all move on from this.
  16. Played through three series, forced game 7 in the last and played game 7 back to back against a Vegas team that cruised through one playoff series against a team that wasn't even suppose to be there. There were just way too much stacked against us.
  17. I wholly believe we would have won if we got another day's rest. In the end we were just too gassed. Looks like Karma bite us back for that game pause.
  18. Cause they only played one series and if was chicago that they just walked all over them.
  19. Well I have always maintained that we need an assistant coaching overhaul. Hope JB sees this now.
