Ongoing NHL Thread Part IV - A New Hope

Ed Westfall (Actually a good pker in his era) vs. Martin Brodeur. Nice knowing everyone.

 

[sabresfaninthesouth]

Wow, I had to dig deep to find my best...

Pat Egan vs. Ed Belfour.

If Belfour is sufficiently drunk, there may be a chance.

Playing my first game in almost 4 years tomorrow night in a 30+ league. I'm gonna fucking score too

Finished the season T3rd in the league in points and still got cut for the winter. I mean, I knew coming in there was a decent chance of that happening because of numbers but fuck man it sucks. It's fair game to job hunt in the playoff handshake lines, right?

Absolutely.

As a coach I have tried to recruit players in handshake lines.

Gotta bring that 200 foot game. Be a true pro. Points are nice but we're looking for character on the ice and in the room.

Lead with your Corsi in the handshake line

coach doesn't like smokers

It's actually totally fine/explainable, it's a team of guys that have all been playing together for 25 years except for two guys and the goalie and I was just filling in for the summer. It's just disappointing because it's a good team and a good bunch of guys.

Sounds like you were suiting up with the Muskoka 5

You could probably crack the Senators if you want.

 

[naslundfan19]

Top 20 Centers according to NHL Network.

 

[naslundfan19]

Top 20 Wingers.

 

[Bloody Brian Burke]

Top 20 Wingers.

Marner and Draisaitl are too high, Hall is way too low.

Stone should probably be higher, too.

 

[tducey]

Stone should be higher, Ovie higher than Kane too.

 

[forty_three]

Marchand?

Above Stone, Hall, Panarin, Pastrnak? Rantanen?

What? Did he threaten to lick the writers if they didn't put him up there?

He has more points the past two years than any of those guys. His team has been top 5 in the league standings each of those years. He just played in a 7 gamer for the Cup during a run in which he had 23 pts in 24 games.

No issue there IMO.

I think 43 was just wanting to get a lick joke in there...

 

[Comeds]

Anybody else surprised the Habs have not signed Thornton and Markov yet?
