The Everything NHL Thread

Lot of solid players in that 2008 draft (was curious, so looked it up) but man I'm reminded again that Detroit could have had Markstrom or a few other better players instead of McCollum that year.
 
So turns out the idiot Oilers management was making Nugent-Hopkins play with a shoulder injury all season. On the bright side, this shows that MacTavish is at the very least more competent than Tambellini (yes not very difficult I know).

How did they come up with these terrible options? Brandon Yip? Seriously? There are a lot of notable superstars missing from some teams.

The Ducks could have Bobby Ryan, Ryan Getzlaf, Corey Perry or Teemu Selanne over any of the 2 terrible options for their team. I kind of feel like all of these terrible options are rigged for an automatic Evgeni Malkin win.
 
Yip/Fisher>Weber, Backstrom>Suter/Parise, Burrows>Sedins, Cogliano/Beleksey>Getzlaf/Perry, Henrique>Kovalchuk, Hagelin>Nash, Purcell>Stamkos/St. Louis. What the actual fuck? I swear they're trolling with half of these.

You know what the funniest part about all of this is? Calgary's isn't even a troll, those are legitimately their best players.
 
apparently the Sabres can only win important games when they don't count and neither team cares about the outcome

oh well, go Islanders/Blue Jackets!
 
Detroit in the playoffs again would be lame, they have nothing to gain from losing round 1 to the Hawks. Besides the only player on the team worth watching is Datsyuk. I'd much rather Columbus get a shot at winning their franchise's first playoff game.
 
I'm am sick of seeing Detroit in the playoffs. I want Columbus to get in because they are working real hard, and not like they are gonna win or anything, but Brobobsky might be one of those goalies that can potentially, "Steal a series".
 
blah blah blah columbus has nothing to gain from a first round exit against chicago either.

you can just openly say you don't want detroit in the playoffs simply because you don't like detroit. it's ok, i promise.
 
I'd say a struggling franchise at the gates like Columbus probably has a lot to gain from making the playoffs. Even if it only lasts a round.

That said, I don't want the Wings, or any original 6 out of the playoffs (ok maybe the Leafs).


Martin St-Louis about to win Art Ross :D !!! (*jinxes)
