Ongoing NHL Thread Part IV - A New Hope

[KennyBanyeah]

Ottawa has outscored Alberta 9-zip over the last 24 hours and a bit.

I hear ya douchemod but douchegoons (Maroon) need to chill. No matter the score.

I tuned in tonight to watch the Flames and Canucks, not the effin zebra show.

6 powerplays, including a 5/3 and 4/3.... 16 total shots through 2 periods.
that's fucking awful

10-zip now Kenny. Go Sens Go!

It's like Spinal Tap in Alberta Kenny, we're going to 11

Oooh, more fromage from Markstrom.

 

[puckhead]

2nd game in a row DelZotto has booted one into his own net.

Boeser-mania alive and well

Hank with a pretty dirty cross-check on Brodie. That completes the hat-trick of penalties in this 3rd period.

 

[dash]

A record of 4-2 after 6 games. I'll take it.

 

[mattola]

boy lots of white jerseys in Rogers arena

A record of 4-2 after 6 games. I'll take it.

I like our start better than last years. No doubt about what team we got here. It's pretty clear. Going to be pretty dry at the gates this year however

Hamonic (not pictured) came in from the right point to score in this edition of "That guy scored"

Austin Matthews > Connor McDavid.

Austin Matthews > Connor McDavid.

Shots fired! Maybe it's me but when was the last time there was this much star power/talent in the league? McDavid, Matthews, Sid, Ovi, Kane etc. Just about every game has someone where you say I'll watch this game because I want to see so and so.

Also, Will Butcher with 8 assists so far, I'll take it.

Austin Matthews > Connor McDavid.

I'll say this, I think Matthews has a better pair of mittens than McDavid, obviously the skating edge goes to McJesus, but as far as finishing is concerned, give me Auston.

 

[Comeds]

Austin Matthews > Connor McDavid.

McDavid makes the players around him better in addition to being great. In terms of greatness assists are always more indicative.

 

[Duke of Douchington]

Austin Matthews > Connor McDavid.

 

[tducey]

Matthews is not better than Mcdavid but the guy is an awesome player and it's closer than 1 would think.

 

[Bloody Brian Burke]

I'll say this, I think Matthews has a better pair of mittens than McDavid, obviously the skating edge goes to McJesus, but as far as finishing is concerned, give me Auston.

McDavid will become an even better skater, too. As will Matthews.

Which means Matthews will still be > McDavid.

If there is a hockey God, the Finals will be TOR v EDM for the next few years.


/looks at standings, becomes an atheist

 

[Bloody Brian Burke]

Damn.

 

[sabresfaninthesouth]

Damn.

They also only had 6 5v5 goals in the first 5 games, so it's not like they were doing a whole lot with him on the ice either.

And the PP is now a ridiculous -3.
