Win-or-Lose don't think BOS is blowing it all up...
How about the Lords of HOGTOWN...
What happens next??


Yah no Boston ain’t blowin it up. No reason for them too when they’ve been decently successful for over a decade. Toronto on the other hand, don’t even get me started lol

Marner (NMC ya ya) - out/trade allows for a $5.5MIL FWD & $5.5Mil DMAN or GMAN in his place - that's a good start...

Dallas' dominant performance in this round shows just how good Vegas was and had they finished top 3 in the Pacific they'd be probably be playing Dallas in the West Final instead of losing in the opening round.

Your Stars pick is gonna be ruined by the Arty Party (I hope)

That’s what I’m hoping, even better if you can trade him with his full cap hit (though he’s gonna be less valuable then)

I wouldn't consider playing Demko until he's 100% and Silovs has a bad game, SIlovs is on a very hot streak, let him ride it until it stops

I know... I guess the question is the Nucks fans... Demo at 90% or Silvos at 100%?

It shouldn't be an excuse because we still have a lot of firepower and got Drouin back last night. But I guess the Val thing happened right before the game, like he did morning skate, practices, and team meetings then was pulled either in the locker room or right before.

I think the shuffling of the D pairs was what really threw them off last night. Our Defense is the engine of the team and fuels the breakout and puck possession. Putting Walker on his offhand with a partner that he is unfamiliar with (Makar) and then having a 3rd pair of Jack Johnson-Caleb Jones was really disruptive. They played Girard-Manson alot to make up for it. I don't know that there was a better solution, just that it wasn't ideal.

MacKinnon was his "pre-Cup" frustrated self and wore his emotions on his sleeve; which probably gave Dallas encouragement that they had him rattled. Rantanen has been pretty lost all series for some reason. Lehkonen was a difference maker but his chances were inches away instead of going in and Drouin drove some good play but the Stars have done a great job pushing the Avs to the perimeter. With no Val Nichushkin to open it up the top lines struggled. Miles Wood did well at it but lacked the support to finish.

I seriously would put Wood on a top line in place of Val just to get that physical wrecking ball in to give the skill guys more room to work.

“They have to protect their investment.. that’s my understanding”. Zadorov on the NHL suspending Soucy.

Yes. This is 100% what is occurring. The nhl exists to make money not be fair. Cross check the face of the guy responsible for 500,000 eyeballs on tv you’re getting a sussy. McDavid will make the nhl hundreds of millions of dollars during his career. The rules apply differently for those hundred of millions of reasons. This isn’t the Olympics, is private enterprise.

There’s a simple path forward: Don’t break the great players and you’re fine, or find a way you can draw half a million viewers, earn the league hundreds of millions yourself.

Kind of funny how someone made an ACGM claiming to be a former NHL executive and talking with executives but then makes a trade proposal that feels like that statement be a bit false to say the least

Dont like when people try to trick others but with that out of the way back to hockey

In other news - Bettman will award the Blackhawks 2025 first overall and takeaway another Sens 1st round pick for promoting gambling on their Twitter.

More news at 7.

You're certainly incorrect. The NHL does not make money or lose money.
