Doubtful. RHN is back by the allstar break. We may win a few more games yet!

Oilers D is terrible, but basically an avg of 1 goal a game in the past 6 is brutal.

I want a refund for games from mid nov on.

Has there ever been a time where a team has gotten a lottery pick three years in a row?


Anyways, the Flames are most likely playing their best hockey these past few games, been really fun to watch. Flames are now in playoff contention, only two points out!

basically if you can't move the puck out of your own d-zone, your not going to score often. Fix the glaring hole on the D, the offence will start working.

Bruins / Flyers was definitely hockey the way it was supposed to be played (well, aside from the fact the game was decided by a shootout). Thoroughly entertaining!

As was the Caps / Penguins, actually.

I agree. The Leafs and Oilers are glaringly similar.

Caps-Pens was a great game. Malkin was in full beast mode today.

Didn't see the Habs-Leafs game but nice to see Bourque scoring...

Bourque: 1
Cammalleri: 1


And from what I heard, Erik Cole was once again a BEAST!!! He might be the MVP over Price so far.

Well we're not last in the division anymore.

EDIT: We now have the 30th ranked PP at 12.2% (on pace for worst PP since Chicago in 06-07) and the #1 ranked PK at 89.2%... which is on pace to tie the record for best PK season EVER!!! Washington did 89.2% in 97-98 and Dallas did 89.2% in 99-00.

And hasn't been suspended for stupid dirty play yet. Nor has he been taking dumb penalties in the offensive zone.

Bourque hasn't done either... at least not yet.

In 4 games, he has 1 goal (+0) and 5 PIM (his fight with Hendricks).
Cammy has the same stats, expect he's -4 and took 2 minor penalties.

Bourque has been an upgrade over Cammy for half the price. Much better defensively and more physical, exactly what we needed.

BTW- Ovechkin suspended 3 games! A well deserved suspension.

I just saw the most ridiculous dive in a long time by Taylor Hall.

Phoenix Coyotes are Celine Dion
Most of their fans are retired Canadians who need something to take their mind off their last bad round of golf. They have management that kinda makes you scratch your head and wonder what’s going on behind the scenes. Anyways, it’s only a matter of time before they return to Quebec and settle down for good.
I like this one

^ The interference is appalling in this game.

Unbelievable what the Canucks are getting away with.

Also Bieksa is a pussy.

Toughest player in the league when the linesmen show up too I might add.


(GREAT OT though)
