Pens fan here. I'm still prepared for the worst outcome here, even before yesterday's game, especially after reading how this retarded city started renaming streets after Matt Murray. I fully expect SJ's ice to be mush again on Sunday, just like it was the first two games there, in an attempt to take the Penguins' speed out of the equation.
Also RIPIP in peace Howe.

They should keep him in the morgue until next season is over, so that they can bury him along with the Joe Lewis arena.

this is literally the worst cup final ever it's so gay and boring, the only redeeming thing about the whole series is that cheeseburger phil is getting to show up all the good canadian boys on tsn by probably getting his greasy cookie crumb covered fingers all over the only thing they value
>>68288132
Idk, I thought it was boring but I realize now either bill gets the last laugh or jones will drag a struggling team all the way to the championship by himself and we can laugh at the pens for not being able to outscore a team they're doubling in shots
>>68288291
The only way the shorks win is if Jones is the conn smythe winner.
>>68287702
Because there are outliers in every population
>>68288316
He might be at this point. My only doubt is that while he was solid throughout the 1st 3 rounds, he didn't carry them the way he is now.
I think he's been good enough that if he wins them 2 more he'll get it but if they win a high scoring one where he isn't as good I doubt he will just because of the nhls scoring boner
>>68288495
Two more 40-20 shots wins and he'll get it. Unless Couture lights it up in the meantime.

No, I need to get his attention so he will give me the top tips.
I've already ordered gay pride tape that should be here in a few days, and I plan on congratulating his work on supporting the LGBT community.
I bet none of the other fags that signed up will know of Scriven's degeneracy advocacy, so I will get an advantage.

>>68285807
Maroon, while playing on a line with McDavid that is.
>>68294583
one of my favorite line combos, i hope they are back together next season
>>68295186
>>68294583
is edmonton gonna fall for the shit wingers with superstar meme? its been a waste seeing crosby play with garbage cans on wing for most of his career.
>>68295289
mcdavid and maroon were pretty well together
crosby has no chemistry with anyone, even babcock had no clue who to put on his line, connor seems to work well with most anyone on his line
>>68295938
a trashcan could have chemistry with mcmeme. see benoit pouliot. kinda limits the effectiveness of the line though when you can just focus on one guy and neutralize it
>>68296058
mcjesus has pretty good wingers, eberle and maroon are alot better then some other top centers get
eberle can drive a play when he feels like it and maroon is the forechecker net guy
>the city of shittsburgh
>>68296537
autofellatio is hot
>>68296503
i don't know about eberle. i've a watched a fait bit of him and while he is highly talented he is also soft as fuck. you put some pressure on him and he disappears. he's basically like a glorified brad boyes.
>>68295289
>>68296058
Maroon worked well but isn't capable of playing 15+min a game for a long stretch, so ultimately they need someone else to play with McD and (assuming he isn't traded) Eberle. Pouliot has more endurance than Maroon but lacks the edge and sheer will that Maroon has and ends up looking lost/under utilized when played with two much more talented players. Someone like Lucic would be the perfect fit; grit, determination, endurance, and decent offensive skills. Thachuk could also potentially fill that void, but the 4th pick is too tempting to trade.
>>68296801
in a vacuum lucic would make a great winger for mcmeme but unless they move out some salary in the near future the cap structure would be totally fucked. their defense is very far from being competitive and fixing it would complicate things.
>>68296792
ebs and nuge should go as a package somewhere for a top pairing dman
>>68296801
looch is just a bigger target on mcdavids head
>>68297059
12mil to one team? HA
>>68296978
Fair enough. It is really more of a fantasy to think he'd even consider signing in Edmonton anyways. Their forwards could be improved still though, and it would help out their dmen as well. Too many bad turn overs and not enough hard work off the puck makes it more difficult on the dmen.
>>68297059
i think you'd have to package around eberle or nugent hopkins. i think there are few teams who could take back the $12 million caphit of both, have a top pairing d-man to trade, and be willing to trade him. maybe karlsson from ottawa, but if i'm the sens i don't do that trade.
personally i'd trade eberle before people start realizing he's not worth his caphit. especially if the cap stays the same or even lowers.
>Get home
>See the news
I feel like a piece of me just died.
Fuck man.
>>68297657
upfront edmonton just needs to flesh out their bottom-6 and swap out redundant pieces in their top-6. thankfully for them they have quite a bit to work with there.
defense will be a much tougher job to complete. besides having a largerly bad or inexperienced defense, they really have shit for competent puckmovers on the backend. i'd through money at goligoski this offseason and pray something emerges from the prospect pool. it won't be reinhart though, kek.
>>68297841
how did you go an entire day without hearing, it was breaking news on the radio and everyone was talking about it at work
also you missed one of the greatest triggerings in /sp/ history

Fuck this gay earth. At least he's at peace now instead of dealing with his dementia.
>>68297956
>tfw you really want reinhart to prove everyone wrong
>tfw you know there is zero chance of that happening
that second first round pick sure would have looked good last year
>>68297956
FA won't help them because they'd be overpaying for top 4ish dmen and not getting legit top 2 defenders or top 4 dmen who have proven they can win the big games. Sekera is an example of what they'll get, and they don't need anymore like him. They need to focus on developing their young defenders and bring in someone who has had success and can still play 20min a game. Not much out there for those types though. Maybe they can take on a big contract dman from a cap hurt team, while shedding one of Eberle or Nuge or even Hall.

>actually watching tv
>not just torrenting everything
>not being private tracker masterrace
Sports withstanding, television is a redundant concept in this day and age.
>>68298412
who cares, its all shit no matter how you watch it
>>68298076
wasting that 1st and 2nd on reinhart was a real, real bad mistake. i'm an isles fan and know exactly how terrible he is. sorry bud.
>>68298192
it is so incredibly super rare that top-2 dmen become avaliable, let alone through FA, that imo it is not a scenario worth planning for. i mean, who was the last one? eric johnson years ago maybe if you can't him as one, or pronger a decade ago? you either trade an absolute fortune for one(and the oilers may be able to pull this off) or just draft and hope one emerges.
as to bringing in another guy like sekera, no it is not ideal, but it will be an upgrade on the rest of the defense that is badly needed if they really want to start competing. especially if klefbom's staph infection is really bad like it has been.

I love canadianfags, I'm one too (retired in the states now), and I feel for you Oiler fans. I do, you have some seriously bad ownership/management. But if you think Edmonton is 4 defensemen away from competing you're really deluding yourself.
Between the horrid drafting, poor FA acquisitions and questionable coaching, the only saving grace is you got a horseshoe stuck up your asses so far that you got McDavid.
The problem is, he's just going to punch the clock for 4 years (3 now) till he can hit FA, and he'll be out of edmonton so fast he won't even have a chance to clean out his locker.
McDavid will end up in Detroit, or Montreal, or Toronto, or Buffalo, or Pitsburgh someplace within 6 hours drive of his home, and willing to pay him top dollar.
My grandkids played hockey with him. They're still close. He REALLY was pissed off when Toronto and Buffalo lost out on him to Edmonton, and wants nothing to do with the city.
>>68293046
They're already naming the new bridge after him. However I'm all for naming both bridges after him. He deserves two bridges.

Calves don't get a workout while playing hockey, you'll see legs like that on a lot of players. I'm certain that he is in the best shape of any draft eligible players, or at least he was before the knee surgery. When he was asked what he does on his free time he said something like "eat and sleep". He hasn't gone to school since he was 15 and he uses all his time at the rink, either practising on ice, at the gym or playing games. He is the kind of guy who was born to play hockey.

>>68324777
a friend of mine always says he's a better player than toews and bergeron, and even though i get the argument of pure skill over success, any time i've watched toews i can see that he's good just plainly by "eye test", any time i watch bergeron i can see that he's good just plainly by "eye test", but when i watch giroux i just see a guy who has some above average puck skills when given space and time but just looks like the number 2 center on a good team most of the time.
he has the right kind of name and canadian media outlets promoted him for years as "underrated" and "one of the best" so now people just believe it, but he racks up garbage points, has never led a team to squat (really good players can carry their teams fuck off philthy fags). he ain't in the same class as the guys he gets mentioned with.
>>68324940
she looks like she's 25
>>68325203
the amount of money the scf makes is always roughly the same. the potential for long term profit by refpucking non traditional markets into success is measurably more profitable long term for the league than having a team that already sells out consistently go long in a playoff.
>>68324777
Well he does have the most points since 2010 but I wouldn't put him in the same class as Crosby, Benn, Tavares, Kopitar, ovechkin, bergeron.
>>68325203

>>68326930
Him, Kopitar and toews are the best 2 way centers in the nhl.
>>68327191
And Barkov
>>68325754
both NHL and NHLPA gain massively when canadian teams make the playoffs. NHL gets 35% of the gate for all home games in the playoffs, that's a far more massive number coming from Toronto than it is coming from Florida. NHLPA also benefits from the corresponding rise in HRR.
Canadian teams didn't make the playoffs this year due to their own incompetence, it takes a lot of mental gymnastics to believe they are somehow being 'refpucked' out of it.

He's giggling to himself as he takes another swig of low quality vodka, maybe even a sip from his moldy, 2 day old beer that's been sitting on his desk open. He keeps chuckling to himself; he thinks he's hilarious. He thinks people like when he posts pictures of his pathetic nation's new idol. He ":DDDD"s as he sweats, the alcohol metabolizing and seeping out of his pores. He posts Laine, he talks about how Barkov is elite, and he thinks the world loves him. But you know what Pekka? Nobody loves you. This whole board fucking hates you, and the world would be a better place if you killed yourself.
Everytime I see that disgusting flag on this board, I die inside. I fucking hate it, I hate it so much. I just want all finns to know this, and if I had the chance? I'd like to see every single last man, woman and child from that disgusting country gassed.

Bergeron is better than Kopitar, but not Toews. Barkov will be better than both Kopitar and Bergeron soon. Ryan O'Reilly and Paul Stastny are underrated in the 2-way center department, but none of the aforementioned marquee names are in any capacity.
I've seen Kopitar and Bergeron respectively a lot over the last 3 seasons since I started paying the Jews for the NHL package, and there is just no doubt in my mind that Bergeron is better.
Tavares should be somewhere in the conversation, but I don't think that he moves well enough to be the 200 foot player that any of those guys are, despite having much better hands, vision, and a better release than all of them. Even Kopitar seems to skate better than he does a lot of the time, and that's just so important nowadays.

Some are listed bigger and some are listed smaller, both height and weight wise. I remember when Joe Colborne was playing here in Denver, he was listed at I think 6'3, and he just seemed so tall when I met him and my uncle who was with me swore up and down that he himself was 6'3. I talked with one of the scouts on HF Boards (I know) about it after and he said something like "That's cause he's pushing 6'6" and he compared it to how NFL teams will list players as having more severe injuries than they actually have cause it affects the way the opposition will play against them or perceive them and whatever.

After practice, I was lucky enough to enjoy a Starbucks with my good pal Phil Kessel. It actually was not planned, but nonetheless delightful.
It was my wife’s birthday Wednesday. We went out to dinner (just like every other night), and as we finished up dessert, I couldn’t help but think about Sidney Crosby.
People always ask me, "What’s Sid like? What makes Sid so great?" Well, I do believe I have found the secret to his success.
It’s dessert.
He loves dessert, and it has been the driving force behind our playoff push.
From Magnolia Bakery in New York, to Georgetown Cupcakes, he refuses to be denied.
So if you’re ever questioning that dessert at the end of dinner, just remember, Sidney Crosby would … and it has worked out well for him.

Anyone who knows anything about hockey knows that your front office is one of, if not THE worst in the league right now.
The trio is Colorado, Vancouver, Boston, order can be argued, but not the teams named.
>>68336531
Its irrelevant what you think because Matthews will be a leaf for the foreseeable future.
>>68336632
sweeney will be proven to be a chaotic genius in the coming years. a savant
>>68336632
No way is Colorado even close to Vancouver or Boston bad.
Roy coached a better season than Dedmonton and Toronto have seen in decades. Nice try though. And Sakic didn't even have to pay him 50 million a year to do it.
Even when the avs are "bad" they are till 5+ places ahead of Edmonton and Toronto in the league standings. And they actually do have things like defensemen and goaltenders, something neither of those Canadian franchises ever bothers with.

>>68337171
Before I actually acknowledge you, are you an avalanche fan?
>>68337171
Again, your team has one of the worst front offices in the league. That is not a fact that can be disputed. You are in the lowest of the low along with Bombston and Hongcouver. EVERY ONE of the other 27 teams have a brighter future than yours.
The American you're quoting was correct.
>>68336765
He picked Literally Who and Literally Who instead of Barzal and Connor because he has the smugness of a Harvard Grad and the fuck the world mentality of a noob GM who no one likes.
Senyshyn could turn out to be an outstanding pro, and I've seen a lot of him and I really love that pick, but you can't take fucking Jake Debrusk over Matt Barzal. It was retarded to do so. Also, Zboril is a headcase. He could've taken Connor and Barzal along with his "reach" in Senyshyn then traded one or both of them for a much better prospect than Zboril. I could be wrong, but as it stands, half of what he's done has been very, very good imo (can't say this about benning) and half just looks so fucking bad and retarded.
They had the best 2nd round of any team in the draft, however.
>>68337200
Dedmonton and Toronto can't seem to have any flukes. The best they can hope for is to "fluke" into the 8th seed.
Can't ever win their divisions.
Something Colorado has done plenty of times in the old format and new.
Canadians are mad at how inferior their teams, I know. But don't spout delusions as fact outside of Canada
>>68337306
I don't think Colorado has grim future in a vacuum but I agree that their front office is terrible. Serious nepotism problems and they keep jettisoning talent from the team. They lost Stastny, ROR, and soon Barrie without truly replacing them. The Avs have gone nowhere for years now.
>>68337387
He's just some triggered Leafs fan... let it go.
>>68337387
You have a bottom 3 front office. That's a fact and there's nothing you can say to change that. Doesn't make a difference how much talent you have when they're mismanaged and not coached adequately.
>>68337327
Don't forget Boeser.
Barzal, Connor, and Boeser. Or hell, even Colin White.

Toronto had an identical fluke in 2013 you fucking moron. Do you not understand that both flukes in question amounted to nothing? The difference is that Toronto turfed the retards who were in charge then.
Your retards are still in charge and will be for the foreseeable future.
>>68337306
>was correct
>Roy clearly criticizes the effort after most bad games
Canadian casual detected.
>worst front offices
>why?
>because I say so!
alright buddy, you also don't watch post game press conferences. How am I to take you seriously?
The avs have a better team built right now, and they did it with the current front office. Your fairy tale ending for dedmonton and toronto is hardly a believable reality.
>Matt Duchene was drafted 7 years ago
nice """career"""
>>68337601
The avs are shit though. What exactly makes them good? Finishing 30th or 17th is essentially the same thing. The only difference is the leafs are stockpiling good young talent with the best coach in the league.
>>68337455
>trades for a top young physical defensemen prospect and a decent forward prospect
>got nothing
hmmmm, Canadians really hate defensemen it seems.
Statsny left because he wanted to try for a cup. Nothing the front office could do about that
>>68337587
>only Canadians can spout inaccuracies as fact and get away with it!
>retard!
alright
>>68337515
They really love Debrusk because he's a really intuitive player and they want to keep Julien here long-term for whatever reason, and he's the type of player that flourishes in his system. He's a good player, and he's going to be a goal-scorer in this league, but I really think Barzal, Connor, and White will be much better pros. Then again, you never know. They seem to be more high on Debrusk than any of the picks, and I just don't see it.
>Loses O'Reilly and Statsny for a pile of garbage
>Going to lose Duchene for nothing
>Hasn't had an NHL blueline in the past decade

Calvin Pickard is better than any goalie in the Toronto franchise and he's some literally who prospect backup.
>also have Zadorov, Bigras, and Rantanen in the pipeline

take the L, you're not helping the case
>>68338016
bit drunk here lads
>>68337799
Zadarov isn't shit unless he proves it and he hasn't yet. Same with Grigorenko though he looks a little bit better. Either way I'd still take ROR over them.
As to Stastny, they really should have tried harder to keep him. The real problem is not replacing him or ROR, and maybe Barrie too. Soderberg is not a good enough replacement either.
>>68337799
Again, do you have any idea of what PDO is? Toronto had a high PDO and playoff fluke in 2013. Your playoff appearance was of the same category.
Your management is bottom 3 in the league, a fluke playoff appearance doesn't do anything to change that.
>>68338047
>I'll post this twitter poll, that will show him!
When the best defensemen split over two Canadian franchises is Darnell Nurse, you know both franchises are a joke.
>>68338134
>colorado talking about defence
LMAO
>>68337992
You realize it's Lou manning the helm in Toronto right? He's not some retard like Sakic. He has a history of acquiring amazing goaltenders.
>>68338100
nice dubs pegga
>>68338107
>the Avs actually try to develop their players instead of ruining them on the 4th line Dedmonton
>they must be shit!
They seem to be developing pretty well actually. Bigras looks like he's ready to be full-time NHL next season.
Grigorenko plays a good two way game, though his shooting confidence is low.
Statsny got offered a good deal and turned it down, no reason to overpay to keep a player that doesn't want to stay.
>>68338134
>can't actually show 2123 people who think Roy/Sakic are good
>thinks his singular opinion means anything in comparison to that
>being this much of an unabashedly moronic homer
>>68338134
No that's Morgan Rielly which you'd know if you weren't a dumb cunt who only watches the Avs. He was also selected for Team North America, tell me were any Avs dmen selected for that team?
Nope
Avs last cup: 2001
Franchise entry date: 1995
Leafs last cup: 1967
Franchise entry date: 1912
someone make a nice pulju themed general
>>68338380
Never said they were good, just not anywhere near as bad Vancouver/Boston. That is clearly a forced meme.
I'd consider them middle of the road. They aren't doing a worse job than a lot of other teams. They just aren't doing an amazing job either.
Even so, they built/coach a better team from season to season and could actually be a regular playoff team with a few fill-ins.
Minnesota and Nashville aren't that strong of teams and the Pacific is a joke.
the difference is Canadians have to make up fairy tales that someday their teams might be good, but they are really far away. As are teams like Arizona, Carolina and Columbus.
There is no way the Avs are a bottom 3 managed team if you look at them objectively. Canadians are just sensitive because Colorado dominated their teams for years. So they still project biased opinions towards them.
>>68338653
They are as bad as Vancouver and Boston
They are unanimously viewed as being a front office that can't be trusted to make good decisions
>>68338508
>muh youth team
Are you actually saying you'd take this kid over Tyson Barrie?
Eric Johnson was also selected for a meme tournament team, but unlike you I won't argue that that makes him great.
Beauchemin led the league in blocked shots and is a solid top 4 defensemen.
>>68338923
Actual hockey men took Morgan Rielly, and did not take Tyson Barrie even as a 7th dman.
Erik Johnson was selected by a team that made brutal selections, but he's a good dman.
>thinking blocked shots makes someone a good dman in today's league
Good lord you're a fucking moron
>>68338532
Now post how many cups each team has won
>>68336918
>this fucking delusion
Just kill yourself la
>>68338829
>no proof
>his proof is twitter polls based in Canada/Canadian prospects
Yeah, Canadians also said the sharks/pongs had no chance of making the cup for 90% of this season.
Go ahead and dig up those old TSN polls.
>>68338991
>one produces high quality minutes in the NHL, one doesn't.
>actual hockey men!
ok
>blocking shots isn't important
>beauchemin isn't better than Dedmonton/Toronto top 4
good lord, you're a fucking moron.
>>68339035
Travis Yost is an American who writes for TSN but has written for other outlets as well. His following is general hockey fans from all fanbases you fucking retard
Not to mention Travis Yost is probably one of the brightest writers today and constantly names your management as one of the worst. He made that poll for a reason
>>68339136
What do you not understand about actual people who work in the sport of hockey determined that Rielly was superior to Barrie? Barrie was not good enough to make the 'best of the best' in his age group. That is a fact moron.
Blocking shots to that extent means you're a shit defenceman. But I wouldn't expect a moron who doesn't understand PDO to understand possession/the modern NHL.
>>68339145
>TSN
>fans from all fanbases
you mean all Canadian fanbases. And even then only 2,000 autists like yourself voted.
>>68339230
You're actually fucking retarded, even if it was just Canadian fanbases (which it wasn't), the question was solely regarding Colorado, a team which no one particularly cares about. There was no bias involved. It's not like it was a poll taken from Wings fans or some fanbase that hates yours.
At the end of the day 2000+ opinions mean far more than yours. You can't supply anywhere near that many that show that the Avs management is not bottom 3.
>>68339218
>he wouldn't take Barrie for his NHL team
Now we see why toronto is bad.
>muh insults
yeah you've used a lot of them but your arguments are actually terrible.
You avoid points you know you can't dispute and spout vague memes instead.
>taking the WC seriously
thats a joke in itself.
>>68339353
>team no one cares about
>Calgary, Vancouver, and Dedmonton are all perpetually butthurt from getting dominated.
>Winnipeg got dominated this year, only won 1 of the games.
>>68339382
i wouldn't take barrie unless he's playing bottom pairing minutes and almost exclusively utilized in o-zone starts and on the pp.
>>68339382
Where did I say I wouldn't take him? Your initial claim was that those two teams have shit dmen.
Rielly > Barrie and it's reinforced by only one of them making the NA roster, composed of smart hockey men from different front offices.
That has nothing to do with whether I would take him on my own NHL team you fucking retard. I would, though I would relegate him to third pairing.
I actually have evidence outside of my own opinion, 2000+ people agree with me regarding your front office. You can't provide anything close to that.
>>68339423
>a poll of general hockey fans numbering more than 2000
>he still thinks bias comes into play with a sample size that huge
>>68339468
>Reilly > Barrie
just compare their seasons and careers.
Barrie had a better season and career.
Barrie = more points and only a -7
Reilly = less points and a -46
There is no comparison, using a meme tournament is a poor excuse. Bill didn't even make team USA. Do you believe Abdelkader is better than Bill?
>>68339529
>2,000
>huge
lol what.
Polls on USA sports websites get 200,000 votes or more.
>2000
>huge
lol thanks for that funny joke, friend.
>>68339539
Team USA's selections were retarded, everyone agrees on that. Team NA was amazing and people think that team could actually medal. I value his selection over Barrie's by men who are actually involved in the sport of hockey. Again, you don't seem to understand that your opinion doesn't hold much water in comparison to evidence like that
>>68339604
Get back to me when you can find that many people who support your opinion
>you can't
Right, so yet again, I'll repeat it for your dumb homer ass, Colorado's front office is GODAWFUL and bottom 3 in the league
>>68339704
>you can't find an official rankings of the NHL that every fan voted on?
>tough shit, looks like my 2,000 Canadian opinions reigns supreme
alright bud, if thats what you need to feel ok about life. Go ahead.
I can see you refuse to consider that maybe your opinion isn't exactly correct. In the end, "your" team is even worse than mine, I'll take the last laugh.
>>68339662
>evidence like a meme tournment
>one has a vastly superior NHL career over the other.
>we are talking about NHL clubs
man...for as much as you guys tried to call me stupid you guys sure aren't very smart.
>>68339883
Again, what do you not understand about a sample of 2000 different people thinking your front office is shit? Is your math education really that bad? Over a sample size of that extent there isn't enough bias for you to continue to claim your front office isn't absolute shit.
I don't have anything against you, you clearly have some kind of homerist disease, but it's ridiculous for you to claim you know more than actual NHL executives who selected Rielly over Barrie. Not only did they pick him, he's also getting a letter on the team.
>>68339953
>2,000 is a large size
you realize thats smaller than most farming communities right?
2,000 people in a large city like Toronto is literally nothing.
2,000 people spread of the 150+ million hockey fans is inconclusive.
>>68339953
Oh and,
>he doesn't understand international teams are built differently than NHL teams.
>he uses a meme tournament where teams openly admitted they built themselves in a certain way to hopefully get an edge in that specific field of play
>He refuses to discuss NHL careers in discussion about NHL games
>he claims the meme tournament matters more than NHL careers in the NHL.
Im sorry bro, it appears the true idiot here is you.
