Ongoing NHL Thread Part IV - A New Hope

Pretty sure Washington used their Win in the Bank last year (against Columbus), so the Isles still have theirs. Advantage Trotz & Co

You are mistaken. The Blue Jackets used their loss in the tank. Same concept, just backwards.

Luckily for a few teams (Buffalo and Edmonton, I'm looking at you) the losses work like Capital One rewards where there's no limit to how many you can earn.

If Carolina and Montreal both win tonight I believe that eliminates Ottawa from playoff contention.

Edmonton won again last night. At .500 right now, game in hand on Minnesota, who have the final wild card as well. Let's see what happens and if they can make the playoffs. They are 7 points behind as things stand right now.

The Capitals used theirs last year and because of sub rule 138.52 the Islanders lose theirs for this year for signingsigning Trotz.

The Penguins get theirs back this year, so advantage Pens in the Metro playoffs.

True, but I believe they earn one win due to the traitor defecting to Toronto.

Damnit I forgot about Toronto's third best center

Ya but the fans used that one in the JT return game.

Dunno about that, but by October he will be their 3rd highest paid player.

Those damn Dives are gonna get the #1 and #2 pick in the draft - just you watch.

I mean, fine as long as it keeps those picks as far away as possible from Edmonton.

And I guess Detroit, too. Don't need any more stars in the Atlantic.

damn. fuck the avs, but this hurts the likelyhood of the Stars spending all of their picks and missing the playoffs

 

[puckhead]

that is one scorching hot take

I didn't see much of the game last night, but the Ducks going for the 2 point conversion seems excessive.

Jets did the same against those bunch of jerks

They didn't. Two field goals and a safety at the end of the third did the trick.

Usually you have to win twi Stanley Cups with the Habs before you get that treatment.
