Ongoing NHL thread - Part deux

[Puck082]

I think you may have left out the top candidate: Price.

Definitely forgot about Price. Guy's been great this year.

Rinne or Price. I think anybody else is a travesty - guys are barely scoring at above a point-per-game pace this year.

For the sake of argument, if I had to choose a skater for it, I'd go with Tavares or Backstrom, with Voracek getting consideration if Philly sneak in.

Time for some 3 on 3 OTs to increase scoring!!

Then again, many of their fans have been calling for the head of Joel Q. Ya know, the guy who recently coached them to 2 Cups in 4 seasons. Maybe they deserve this.

I think maybe some of the Hawks players should stop chirping opposing players when they hobble off the ice with an injury. The hockey gods took notice and payback is well you know.

They sometimes don't act as quickly as we would like them to.

Well, I for one would welcome the firing of Joel Q.

Perhaps he would want to come to the organization that drafted his nephew.

/but srsly, tough break for Patty Kane. He's growing up and is such a blast to watch.

perhaps the hockey gods are waiting for the NHL to announce theyre not participating in the Olympics again

I didn't think the hit on Kane was suspension worthy at all. Rather innocuous. Little shoves like that happen all the time, many times you don't even get 2 minutes out of it. Interested to see where Chicago goes now, seeing as they can keep Kane on LTIR and off the books until the playoffs basically.

prognosis on Kane

@SportsCenter: UPDATE: Blackhawks All-Star F Patrick Kane will miss 6-10 weeks with an upper-body injury. » http://t.co/uIZXDMRTnD

with all the cap uncertainty they probably cant do anything more than get an expiring contract as a rental ... same with Bruins and Krejci

 

[pixburgher66]

With that timeline: fractured clavicle.

That'll teach em for winning all those cups

Right, but I'm pretty confident they weren't in a place to be adding any salary whatsoever without money going out too. Speculation was just for rental forwards like Vermette, etc.

Sabres top two scorers both hurt last night. Ennis possibly only for a couple of days, Girgensons though possibly done for the season after taking a big-time slapper off the outside of the ankle.

Your move Edmonton.

That was definitely the difference last night. Neuvirth was awesome last night and Forsberg obviously wasn't.

We've already got one Swedish goalie though, don't need another.

Whoa! Five years!

 

[jstewismybastardson]

any chance hawks miss the playoffs due to this Kane injury? I mean they have been playing 500 hockey since Jan 1 ... they continue that trend the rest of the way and Calgary goes 15 and 7 (tough ask i know) and Chicago is golfing

Whoa! Five years!

The Colonel is finally receiving officers pay rather than enlisted pay.
