Many of us suffered through the 80s and have not forgotten. Don't care if they miss the playoffs another 10 years. Hopefully after 5 seasons McDavid will want out. And get traded to another team and win multiple cups. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We both have the same number of ROWs and split the season series, but the Jackets won in OT so we got 3 points whereas they got 2. Thus it looks like we need them to pass us. Tie break is ROW, then overall wins. CBJ has 2 more. Vancouver takes that tie breaker... I think lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup. I see Bo trying hard to steer the bus and it hits home that the Sedins are yesterday's news. Just a couple guys hanging around until retirement day.

I know management has said WD is safe, but I have a hard time seeing how. I feel TG is a much better option. WD gives free mustache rides. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're going to call out teammates for lack of effort, you had better be above suspicion yourself and what I saw from the Sedins tonight was numerous lazy fly-bys and one-handed waiving at the puck while staying on the perimeter passing away PP opportunities. Next year the transition to new leadership (C and As) has to be done. I do not see the approach to the game or the attitude changing under the current leadership. They looked completely disinterested in playing. I can't see the young guns wanting to pattern their games off of that type of uninspired, lifeless play. It seems like the only thing that the Sedins have been consistent with lately is calling out their teammates. That's some great leadership....

And the idea that our powerplay was the difference tonight? Seriously? Letting in 6 goals was the difference tonight. I guess we sort of controlled most of the play for the 1st 10 minutes...

Shinkaruk won't be a 50 goal scorer any time soon (or any time at all), but there is decent chance that Granlund will out of the NHL (i.e. in Utica) at some point next season. He will probably start at 4C but he is marginal as an NHL player and he has reached the age (turns 23 in April) where, for forwards at least, you normally get a pretty good sense of how good the player is. Yes, there is still time for improvement and yes, there are late bloomers, but I don't think the outlook for Granlund is very good. After all, Horvat is a full two years younger (just turned 21) and he is already a much better center than Granlund. And Horvat is a likely 2C/3C, not a franchise type 1C. Granlund had pretty good numbers in the AHL (similar to Shinkaruk's on an age-adjusted basis) but it has not translated to the NHL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think lol From nhl.com: The fewer number of games played (i.e., superior points percentage).The greater number of games won, excluding games won in the Shootout. This figure is reflected in the ROW column. The greater number of points earned in games between the tied clubs. If two clubs are tied, and have not played an equal number of home games against each other, points earned in the first game played in the city that had the extra game shall not be included. If more than two clubs are tied, the higher percentage of available points earned in games among those clubs, and not including any ""odd"" games, shall be used to determine the standing. The greater differential between goals for and against for the entire regular season. NOTE: In standings a victory in a shootout counts as one goal for, while a shootout loss counts as one goal against. We win on the third one, but looks like we lose on the second.

Vanisleryan Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 If Winnipeg wins tomorrow and Calgary beats us in regulation then we cant pass either of them in points since Winnipeg will be 3 up and Calgary 2 but with more ROW....so at worst we finish 26th if that happens. Edmonton won the lottery last year from 26th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure I've even heard Bruins games be that biased towards one team. I was wondering if Markstrom had changed his name to "the goalie" - they could at lest get to know their names. Ahh well, CBC has gone steadily downhill since they lost the HNIC theme and now we have to suffer through seeing Stroumboulopoulos' junk and listening to Kyprios reminisce about how good he wasn't.

I mean, 5 PPs tonight and they didn't register a point. Not even a shot in the first three. I didn't get to watch this game, so to hear zero sog after three pp vs the coilers? just wow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
