Ongoing NHL Thread - Part Brock and Roll Four Lines

[forty_three]

I guess Georgie is gonna be the scapegoat. A valiant attempt made necessary due to the utter lack of support for him.

They need Jack Johnson back.

He learned that from PLD last season.

/Did you get credit for his preseason hat trick in Quebec?

Which team:

hasn’t won yet
not even that close to winning
leads the League in shots and shot attempts but isn’t scoring
giving up way too many odd man rushes
suspect and unproven coaching

Thought I mean EDM but posted in this thread so,

”won” the off season
has 3 Conn Smythe winners


NSH is in trouble. Down 0-2 to Seattle under 10 minutes. At home. Look completely inept so far this year.

Put a couple $$ on Brunette being the first fired.

(yes I am from Toronto so panicking early comes naturally

They'll be fine, just working out some of the kinks. If they don't make the playoffs, I'll eat my hat.

May be true but the Kraken are pretty leaky in nets.

Logically you are probably right. But NSH has led for exactly 0.00 in their 3 games. Opponents were Dallas, Detroit and Seattle. 2 of 3 at home.

Next 3 are all at home. Detroit again, EDM and then BOS. I don’t see many kinks being worked out in the near future and 0-6 will be a tough hole.

Time for me to start betting against them

Would anyone be surprised if all four of those teams go on to make the playoffs? I think they all will.

I don't think the Preds are as bad as all this would indicate but I think there was perhaps a bit too much hype surrounding their offseason acquisitions.

 

[forty_three]

Wait, the Hawk Utahs are a "new" franchise?

 

[sbb122]

Yep none of the coyotes records etc. went with them like the coyotes took the old Jets franchise records etc.

Current Jets franchise has all of the thrashers records

 

[puckhead]

Wait, the Hawk Utahs are a "new" franchise?

Yes, because dipshit still had the rights to revive the Coyotes at the time Utah hawk tuahs started.

Time will tell but, outside of that ridiculous run last year after they lost U2 privileges, they have consistently been a very mediocre team at best For the last 3 years. Start games late, most shots are not high danger, way too many odd man rushes against, can’t penetrate or create offense etc.

They bring in Stamkos and Marchessault and Skjei and we are already hearing the “it’s gonna take time” crap. Literally the only new players in the lineup, and same coach. But they need time??? I guess the difficulties in joining a new ream are why they each played one exhibition game with a bunch of guys who are now in Milwaukee. Training camp was a complete waste of time

But hey, the Oilers are in town tomorrow. Should be interesting.

 

[thedddd]

The Avs are in trouble.

Georgiev can’t stop shots and they can’t produce any offense.

Halfway through the game and only have 7 shots.
