It's really tough to give a shit about this team right now.

Avs can't even beat the shit stars anymore 😮😮😮

 

[Merguson]

Buffalo should of hired a magician instead of a head coach tbh

[CreeperBlocks]

Go Habs!

 

[Marvie_3]

It took me 2 hours to beat that mission in the mall, fucking Biotechwarrior sucked huge amounts of ass

Lol shit. Just lemme know next time. I'll hop back in and wreck dudes.

 

[fallout]

wait the teams had high expectations?

I feel like in the case of the Jets, it had a lot to do with that embarrassing 5 game road trip. I certainly didn't have a lot of high expectations for this season, but several of those games were pretty tough to watch.

 

[lamaroo]

Wtf, turned the game on and the score said 2-1 LA

What an idiot, typical surface level blather from your typical columnist. No better than the half formed thoughts of a casual fan with zero research, but presented like news from the inside.

The ol' "my uncle works for Nintendo" shtick.

 

[PillarEN]

I didn't even realize that Kopitar became the captain.

 

[ElephantShell]

Fucking perfect shot.

 

[lamaroo]

Fire Therrien

 

[CreeperBlocks]

Ugh.

Boy do we need to trade some players this year

 

[Clydefrog]

Geniuses

 

[ElephantShell]

Ugh.

Roman Polak would have prevented both of those goals with overwhelming grit. I'm sure we can work something out.

 

[lamaroo]

CAPTAIN X2

WHERE YOU AT BASK

 

[Clydefrog]

Hmmm.

 

[Heretic]

was that a triple five hole?

 

[CreeperBlocks]

I rather have Corrado

 

[ElephantShell]

I rather have Corrado

At this point I really wish they'd just trade Frankie. Poor guy.

 

[Line_HTX]

Neat.

 

[CreeperBlocks]

At this point I really wish they'd just trade Frankie. Poor guy.

I'll give you Hanley for him

 

[ElephantShell]

I'll give you Hanley for him

Don't even know who that is but let's do it.

 

[lamaroo]

Ah I see the new game plan is to just allow guys to stand in front of Price uncontested.

 

[CreeperBlocks]

RADULOV


YEAH BOY

 

[lamaroo]

Fuck I missed it, was watching Hot Fuzz instead

 

[ElephantShell]

They should start more games at noon, this is great.

 

[SCHUEY F1]

Fuck I missed it, was watching Hot Fuzz instead

Crusty juggler!

 

[lamaroo]

Emelin is trash.

 

[ElephantShell]

How the hell did he get so open.

 

[CreeperBlocks]

Maybe people should hold their expectations of Price being a Veznia Candidate again because that was trash

 

[lamaroo]

Maybe people should hold their expectations of Price being a Veznia Candidate again because that was trash

Stop

 

[CreeperBlocks]

Stop

I know I'm wrong about Price.But Jesus the defensive coverage has been crap.

Emelin needs to go. It's infuriating that he's on the top line.

 

[Pikma]

Carey Price with that Lehtonen-like sv%

LMAO

[zroid]

Stop

:lol

 

[ElephantShell]

Defence has looked like shit in front of Price, most of the goals against him he had no chance.

 

[CreeperBlocks]

God I hope Bergevin upgrades that Defence. We are hurting on the Top Pairing

 

[zroid]

why is Emelin playing with Weber anyway?

weren't he and Beaulieu having a lot of success together?

 

[Merguson]

God I hope Bergevin upgrades that Defence. We are hurting on the Top Pairing

Would a speedy charismatic puck-moving defenseman help?

 

[lamaroo]

Beaulieu is injured right now, but even when he was playing he made a mistake or two and got demoted.

Weber needed a veteran presence beside him on the top pairing making mistakes instead of a young guy doing the same.

 

[yyzjohn]

I get Stamkos / Tavares vibes from them. Anyone agree?

It's a bit harder to project Matthews as the next Tavares but his hands and net drive certainly invite comparisons. Laine however looks like the closest thing to Stamkos there is. He hasn't really driven possession so far, has a lethal shot from anywhere, and shooting over 20% currently (only Stammer has come anywhere close to shooting 20% for his career among active NHL players).

You could also say Laine is like Kovalchuk, since they're both wingers.

That's another thing, that crazy shooting % so far for Laine. Guy is at 21%. The two most prolific goal scorers the last few years are Ovechkin and Stamkos, they have career shooting % of 12.4% and 17.1%. Unless Laine is better than both of those guys, I expect his shooting stats to come down a tad.

 

[CreeperBlocks]

Goodness no, before Beaulieu went down he's been awful and playing on the 3rd line because of it.

Would a speedy charismatic puck-moving defenseman help?

Yeah Captain Morgan would be great.

 

[Merguson]

Yeah Captain Morgan would be great.

 

[bonesmccoy]

Matthews was supposed to be good. And he has been. Snooze.

Laine no one really thought that much about until last year's WJr's, and even then he was still something of a unknown. He's been the spectacular surprise.

What's the story with Puljujarvi?
