I should be a bigger fan of Vegas winning, especially cause I was hiding under an Aria card table on October 1, but their fans can't win a Cup with their first pro team ever . And Ovi is the man Either way, it's looking like a great series to start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Middle Buffalo Posted May 29, 2018 Share Posted May 29, 2018 I'm rooting for Washington (mostly for Ovi and because the first year expansion thing), and it feels very much like rooting for the Hawks. They seem a little slower, a little sloppy, a little late to loose pucks, etc. Maybe it's just a function of rooting for a team that I perceive it that way. Anyway, even the Cup winning Hawks teams always felt like that to me, so I'm not going to lose faith. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It'll be a hell of a Hollywood script though because of that, not to mention it'll piss off alot of fanbases like the Blues, Leafs etc that can't even get to a SCF that a team with a bunch of castoffs can. Love me some Ovechkin though, he deserves one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LittleHurt05 Posted May 31, 2018 Share Posted May 31, 2018 Amazing save by Holtby to save the game late. Expected Washington to give it up late with all the penalties but they held on. Best of 5 series now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LittleHurt05 Posted June 5, 2018 Share Posted June 5, 2018 Vegas dominates the first ten minutes, but can't get it in the net. Next thing you know it's 3-0 Caps. Hockey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When it comes to scoring goals, there's never been anyone better. He's going to pass Howe at the very least, with an outside chance at becoming the All time leader. That feat, coming at a time where the Art Ross winner usually has 100-110 points, is incredible. and more impressive than whatever goal scoring that Gretzky or Howe did. Goalies are bigger and better than they ever have been, with lighter and bigger equipment too. Edited June 5, 2018 by Jack Parkman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well deserved for Ovi, what a career. But my favorite was the last two minutes of every game they were winning, he was losing his shit on the bench, but wasn't getting in a one goal game.

For a team that’s typically cash-strapped, I can’t imagine they would want a back-up goalie who makes $4m a year...unless Crawford is finished.

SoxAce Posted June 9, 2018 Share Posted June 9, 2018 Anyone hear Boyle's podcast about Toews? Pretty telling especially since Rocky and McCub are very petty about criticism of their organization in general so you know he is a mouthpiece. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoxAce Posted June 10, 2018 Share Posted June 10, 2018 7 minutes ago, Tony said: What was said? I'll just copy and paste this from another board. On his latest podcast, titled “Is Patrick Kane the real captain of the Blackhawks?”, Pat Boyle contrasts Kane’s on-ice work this offseason against Toews’. That includes Boyle ripping Toews multiple times for not committing to playing in the CPHL this summer, while Kane and others are. Additionally Boyle says, “It feels like he’s (Toews) on an island right now.” Boyle also mentions Kane doing a lot, Toews doing little, to make an effort to incorporate the young players into the team. Charlie Roumeliotis is also on the podcast and says Kane is always the last one off the ice during morning skates, while Toews is usually the first.

LittleHurt05 Posted June 10, 2018 Share Posted June 10, 2018 Hum, very interesting. Two years ago who would have thought Kane would be the one praised so highly instead of Toews. The problem of Toews suddenly being average is the biggest hurdle to a Cup right now, whatever is going on, it's a problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
