So much more enjoyable with a real drink haha 

 

Love me a cold Moscow mule, whiskey sour, old fashion etc. 

 

But if beer is your choice, something with body ... Personally love IPAs 

I do love a good IPA. i believe the last one I was really enjoying was goose ?

5 games in hand

I think we burned one of them tonight.  We have played 38 now,  they have played 42.  47 points to 37,  and we win the tie breaker as of now.

10 points out,  4 games in hand.  Not saying we get in,  but I think things could get interesting.

 

 

19 games in 32 days for a team well-below peak health is a diabolical road to travel. Gotta be realistic about all of this.

Possibly, but I don't think we can count on Montreal continuing to falter that badly. They will likely pick it up again at least somewhat. I based my estimation on their current point percentage and gave us a bit of breathing room. I would think it to be pretty optimistic to expect them to finish the rest of the year (10+ games) below .500, especially if they get Price back.

Price came back and OTT shut them out 4-0 last night.   MTL is an enigma.  Could be the Easts version of Vegas but are not.   Taking away the series we played against them, they haven't really done well this year.    Maybe them just barely slipping into the play-ins last season is closer to where they really are then all the improvements over the summer - somewhere in the middle i mean.   Like 16.    Seems that way anyways...we could catch them.

Great win by the boys. This was done with almost half of our regulars missing and it feels really good. Bo was instrumental notching a pair of goals. Hogz got the game tying goal. Holtby was fantastic and made big saves when we needed it most. Most importantly, we got the win. Hope we build off this! GCG!

[Rabbit]

What a wonderful return game!

Congrat to the team!

 

Holthy was outstanding to-night.

Bo shown he is the real captain.

Myers, should we keep him in the coming season?

Yeah, that record gives a little bit of room for improvement by MTL, but if they bounce back in a big way, it becomes nearly impossible.

Never cheered for the oilers in my life,  but if they win the two against the Habs this week,  they will be under some real pressure.

Mitch Marner is a spoiled little brat who has never experienced adversity in his life and it shows on the ice.

Do you mean gose (I think) aka a sour beer. 

 

I do like sour beer but usually too lite on the alcohol % 

 

If I am having beer, I want flavour

 

Good call

I’d love to re sign Vessey for next year.  He has been a pretty good fit.

Price and bodies coming back soon. 
 

We will have to see what happens after they get key members back. 

Price just laid an egg and gally is done till May.

Price played the last game.  They got destroyed 4-0 by Ottawa and he let in 3 goals on 14 shots.

Yeah, I wasn't aware. Hopefully he keeps struggling. It would go a huge way towards our chances.

Mtl plays 15 games in the same span,  it’s not like our schedule is that much worse.  Some guys will be negatively impacted by the layoff for sure,  but some will also be rested and fully healthy.

 

like I said,  they probably don’t get in,  but it’s far from impossible.

Now 18 games in 31 days for a team that has one under the belt and looked pretty good...that's a little better no?

Your right, you know what's sad is I actually checked first and saw 42-38 and still came up with 5, haha.

Same can be said for Nylander and Matthews.
