Wyldnwoody44 Posted August 30, 2020 Report Posted August 30, 2020 I didn't do a bracket, probably better that way. Also, the Isles looked pretty dominant. Quote

Lindy is alive, well, the most successful coach we've ever seen in Buffalo, and headed to an arena near you in Jersey. I'm still not sorry we set him free. I am sorry with who they tried to replace him with, though. Pro tip: if you hear a millennial use the term dinosaur, hire that coach. Quote

PerreaultForever Posted August 30, 2020 Report Posted August 30, 2020 Islanders look good, but they wont' beat Tampa. Bruins are done. Lehner vs. Bogo in the final, imagine that. Quote
Eleven Posted August 30, 2020 Report Posted August 30, 2020 Today's games are scheduled for 6pm, 8pm, and 1030pm Eastern. How stupid can the NHL get? 1 Quote

Well, when their primary US based network partner had already contracted/ committed to showing Tour de France, Indy Car, and PGA golf on its primary OTA & cable networks, (and their Canadian network partner probably had curling booked all afternoon); they limit their options on when to make up postponed games. 1 Quote

That is an explanation--but the league surely reserved time slots for games that already were scheduled for today, right? Quote

They definitely had 2 time slots reserved. Though to accommodate the 3rd game, would not be surprised if a 7 or 7:30 PM game was adjusted to 8 to squeeze in on the TV schedule the 6PM game. Didn't see the original schedule, so no idea when the eastern game was originally scheduled. (Maybe they were originally going the other way w/ 6PM & 9PM and the TO game got moved earlier to accommodate the late one?) Quote

It can't be gorgeous across the whole continent. And in two weeks, we'll all have eyeballs on screens at 1pm even if it's gorgeous out. I really think they missed an opportunity here, and since it's the NHL, I'm not easily going to give them the benefit of the doubt. Quote
