Marner out for 4 weeks

That TOR/CHI game

Anyone see Hoglander attempt a spinning “Michigan” from the slot in traffic?

I grew up BMXing, and the crazy new big tricks of the day were backflip tailwhips and double flips and whatnot. Now kids do that poop on the regular and the things they’re landing now is mind boggling. I feel like that’s going to happen with these lacrosse goals. It used to be this very specific trick, and now all the kids know it and they will becomes more commonplace in regular season.

I think you are right.

more like the highs and lows of an 82 game schedule in a parity-driven league



but don't let me interrupt the freakouts, I know there's a group on here who get aroused by them
- Nucker101

I’ve been aroused since the devils took the lead 🤷‍♂️

Until the NHL makes it illegal to “carry the puck on our stick” anyway.

Can see why he had things on his mind.

May have been on ALL their minds. It's tough, went through it a few year back

guess we'll be seeing demo for a few games

I don't think it is anything more than a losing streak. Sorry bud I don't have any excuse other than they have not been good enough.

Markstroms father just passed away . That must have been the family matter being dealt with.

RIP. Best to Marky and his family in these tough times.

I doubt there’s a team in the league that will go the entire season without losing three in a row.

Lay off the 🛀 🧂

Team is done. Season is over. Bo is a bad captain. Green should be fired. Coaches are tanking the season and encouraging the “bunching” strategy

Sweet. I should be able to get some cheap tickets when I’m down for wine fest.

Pearson is giving me Higgins vibes. 3rd line talent who can get himself into shooting spots and win puck battles but lacks the talent to convert chances or setup linemates. Miscast in the top 6
- Nucker101

Pearson has the worst shooting % on the entire team. Ok on the PK... so basically a cheaper LE.

Let’s blame everything except the common denominator
- DrChristianTroy

Blame? People are talking about what to do about the 2nd line problem and it keeps coming back to "blame" and "excuses" from you.... get over the Captaincy decision already. Its a little early to strip the C from Horvat because he's cold.

When did it become a bad thing to cheer for your team?
- VANTEL

Right after Gillis was fired.

I'm curious who's coaching the left side bunch system?

Playoffs!

Ebbs and flows of the season everyone goes through it. there are 2 teams out there battling to win every night and it usually comes down to special teams, goaltending and a bit of luck and we are on the wrong end of it right now.
- Bettmanhatesus

D scoring has dried up & IMO what we need to get going again. Last few games the breakout hasn’t been crisp nor smooth.

HoooooBuoy... Ok, whatever the excuse, he isn’t a winger friendly C. If he’s going to be in the top 6, JTM should be his C. That’s my opinion. We lose a good face off guy if they’re on the same line regardless. Might as well put the better spacer & more cerebral player in the middle.
- DrChristianTroy

Bo had Brock is winger in his first season, that line was pretty good, Bo starts the season with JTM they play well together. Both players get taken off Bo's line, to play with Elias, Bo gets the leftovers. I even Sven, on occasion looked decent with Bo, so ya he isn't a winger friendly centre.

In an interview on TSN 1040’s Price and Sekeres show, Bob McKenzie sang his praises, saying the scouts he’s talked to like how Podkolzin is developing.

“He’s a really quality player,” McKenzie said on Thursday. “He’s the kind on player who gets his nose dirty when he plays.”

McKenzie compare Podkolzin to Vladimir Tarasenko of the St. Louis Blues and Evgeny Kuznetsov of the Washington Capitals — both Russians, both Stanley Cup champions whose stock dipped around draft time because they were signed to KHL deals.

“The wait was very much worth it.”

Playoffs!

Did they fire Green?

He isn't a flashy player, therefore he is a bust.

I wonder if Canucks will call up MacIntyre?

Markstrom headed home for the funeral, Mac would be the logical choice, but maybe they have a CHL goalie they can call on an emergency basis instead...
