NHL.com with a weird glitch.  Shows Arizona winning 3-2, but has the Canucks going 1 for 4 in the shootout and Coyotes going 0 for 2.  Then, in the Box Score, it has Zack Kassian scoring on the first attempt for Arizona (though, both columns say Canucks at the top.)

They've been screwing up a lot lately.

That's 3-2 Coyotes! They blow a 2-0 lead late, and had THREE breakaways in OT, but manage to pull it out in the shootout. They were wearing those crazy old jerseys too. 

 

Honestly, they in no way looked like a team that is worse than the current Sabres. The Canucks needed this win and the Yotes won it.

Coyotes have a better team game and even with hardly any scorers up front Tippet has his guys play hard nightly. I'm looking at Edmonton's schedule and they have a lot of games on the road.

This makes me happy :D

yeah, there's no way the Sabres could beat the Canucks..

I see what you did there, but I'm just saying the Yotes look like a much better team than the Sabres team I've been watching this season.

So are the Pred's the classic President Trophy winners? Playing for the wrong cup?

 

The Preds are free falling.  5 straight losses.  David Poille put together a team that is built for the regular season - long on smaller, skilled players and short of size and snarl.  He traded a first rounder for Santorelli and Franson - two more finesse players.  Franson was needed due to lack of depth on defense due to injuries, but Santorelli has been a disaster.  The Preds were better off with Jokinen.  Leave it to David Poille to ###### up a good roster with too many moves.  I think he messed up the chemistry of the team.

Nathan MacKinnon suffered a broken foot and will miss 6-8 weeks for the rest of the regular season.

 

Welp, combine that with Mark Giordano being out for the season, Kyle Okposo still out on IR, and Gustav Nyquist being bumped to the 3rd line with Cole's arrival, my fantasy season should take a marked turn for the worse.

Your description of the Preds reminds me an awful lot of the 2007 Sabres: solid-to-great goal-tending and small/speedy offensive players on a team with depth. Those same Sabres crashed at the end of the season, barely made it to the ECF, and then, well....

 

It's what has me excited about Murray: he recognizes you can win in the regular season with a team like that, but it's completely useless in a much more physical playoffs. It doesn't take a genius to see the similarities in the Kings, Bruins, Hawks, and Rangers. 

 

Early Cup Finals prediction; Rangers and Blues.

Dougy, Ducky, and Kaner. Cool.

 

I miss those good ol' days when they never stuck and *sie* on the end of everybody's name to come up with a dorkie nickname.

This had me bawling.  :cry:

 

Thank you for posting this.

 

I am a softie and love this kind of thing.

 

This.  Is.  What.  It's.  All.  About.

Dion Phaneuf absolutely unloaded a beauty hit on TJ Oshie tonight. Nice clean shoulder on shoulder hit. Followed by the usual bullspit payback crap that seems to happen after even the clean hits.

One of things I don't like about todays game. Take the hit like a man and move on.

stuff like this is another reason I love hockey... I embedded the video so more people will watch

 

 

Man, that tear jerked me.  What an awesome thing.  Go Duncan Keith.  Props on that!  I love hockey above and beyond all else.  *Edits, except my girlfriend.  :LOL:
