Who ya got?

Looking forward to the Blackhawks getting back to the playoffs.

Looking forward to seeing what Coach Q, Bobrovski and company can do in Florida.

Looking forward to the Blews NOT defending the Cup successfully.

[Porch Dweller]

[icehog3]

Go Bruins!

They got an 8-2 win today over the Rockford Icehogs! :r

Just happy the Avs didn’t let the Rantanen contract bleed into the regular season and he & the Avs have started out well.

Flip side, Altitude Channel(they show all Avs games not on the National broadcast) and Comcast/Dish/DirecTv are in a pissing match over dollars. NHL Center Ice blacks out both the Avs & Knights here.....great...:gary

It is amazing, 4 of their top 6 gone, Byfuglein possibly done, Morrisey battling injury. They need to figure it out quick or fall too far into the hole.

Heading to the Blackhawks home opener on Thursday, taking on Erika Karlsson and the Sharts. :D

[8lug]

Some asshat dropped Erika from their fantasy team.

I was wondering about that, Mark. Did you think his "personal issue" was gonna be long term like Byfuglein's?

[8lug]

I'm not really up to speed on the west coast teams,
I'm still trying to figure out what happened to the Adams division :r

Just rolling into Chi town on the bus, big central division match up tomorrow with your boys Tom!

Went last night, Matt, but wish I was going again. Hawks really need a win, I'm guessing they're gonna use Lehner.

[Prefy]

Round #1 to the good guys Tom! Don’t think we are back in town until the new year. Would love to grab a cigar with the admiral in 2020!

January 19th, Matt! Lemme know when you're getting in. (Phrasing).

We can agree to disagree on who the Good Guys are. :r

Bruins are off to a fast start 5-1, Pasta lights the lamp 4 times today against the Ducks:banger

HUGE game for Pastrnak, and the goalies have been solid (knocks on wood, no not Tuukka's).

[E.J.]

Not a bad start for the AVS!

[PaulHarris]

Today I am going to watch the hardcore fight between Hurricanes vs Blackhawks. Always a Blackhawks fan, will enjoy this game.

Hopefully last night was the start of an upswing for the Hawks.

[E.J.]

Avs treading water with Landeskog, Rantanen and now Z down. Makar is a stinking monster, kid is impressive!

[icehog3]

Makar is a stinking monster, kid is impressive!

Absolutely, he's gonna be a star for a long time.

Hawks hardly afloat, and they have no real injuries to blame. :hn

[E.J.]

Hell of a response by Kane, after that goal.

[E.J.]

Nice win for your boys tonight, Tom.

[4WheelVFR]

Hawks looked good tonight and Crow was solid. I've liked the last few games. Hopefully they can keep it up and start clawing back.

[icehog3]

Thanks, E.J., best third period I've seen them play this season.

If they continue to play the way they have the last 2 weeks, they can definitely get back in the mix, Ray. Crow was outstanding, and we have a great 1B in Lehner.

[Porch Dweller]

How about Pekka Rinne scoring a goal...

I watched the game last night. Awesome goal! :banger #GoPreds #MyPekkaIsAwesome

[icehog3]

Doesn't happen very often, so even though it was against the Hawks it was fun to see.

Now off with his head! :D

[yourchoice]

Flyers with six in a row!

[icehog3]

They look for real, Joel. We'll see how Hart looks in the playoffs. :tu

[elderboy02]

Think Nashville will make the playoffs?

[Porch Dweller]

In Tampa visiting in-laws. We'll be at the Bruins-Bolts game tonight. I'll be in my Ray Bourque jersey.

I do, but they may need to start Saros more often. :hn

Awesome! Let's Go Tuukka! :wnr

There were practically as many Bs fans at the game as there were Tampa ones. Some even managed to get a decent "Yankees suck!" chant going in the first. 😊

[E.J.]

F’n posts for the AVS...UGH

They're still looking good, despite Makar and Rantanen being out.

I think McKinnon is the best offensive player in the NHL, despite all the love for McDavid.

[Bruins Fan]

Tuukka stones the Flyers on his birthday for 6th shutout for this season.:tu
B's first team to reach 100 points.

Rask was in the zone last night. That was a damned good game.

Congratulations (and thanks) to Tuukka, he's my fantasy (goalie). :D

Going to the Hawks game tonight. Nothing left to play for but pride. Let's see how that goes. :lr

[E.J.]

MAKAR!!! ....and there’s your Calder winner!

It went pretty well. :D

[icehog3]

It went pretty well. :D

For a change. :r

Saw that Makar strike when I got home, that kid is good. There's a pretty good forward in Chicago too, but Makar and Hughes have too much of the full-season hype.

[E.J.]

It may not be healthy how much hockey I’ve watched in the last bit. GO AVS!!!

[E.J.]

ADD: Tom, your ‘Hawks looked REALLY good.

[E.J.]

Can I hope Vancouver and Minnesota lose in the same game?

[icehog3]

E.J., big win for the Avs, though they're heading to the next round regardless.

Hawks looked dominant through 2+ periods. I'd be feeling a lot more confident if they had won 6-2. Or if Conor McDavid got the chicken pox today. :D

[Porch Dweller]

Great to see the top line for the Bruins get the monkey of their back earlier. Bergeron is just clutch.

[icehog3]

Must win for Chicago today for any chance to upset Vegas in this series.

Let's Go Blackhawks!

[E.J.]

WOW....Rask packed up his pads and went home.

[icehog3]

Whoa, gotta Google that! What???

Blackhawks hanging on my the thinnest of threads. Not super confident but still hopeful.

[Porch Dweller]

WOW....Rask packed up his pads and went home.

Halak's a good goalie and I think he'll do just fine...notwithstanding his horrible turnover today.

As for Rask, well...he's a great goalie but just not a clutch goalie. If he retires as some think he will he'll be missed, but only in the regular season. :D

[8lug]

WOW....Rask packed up his pads and went home.

Good, now he cant sh#t himself in a game seven.

[icehog3]

Good, now he cant sh#t himself in a game seven.

Only for 17 seconds.... ;s

Hawks likely playing their last game of the season tonight. They would not have made the playoffs under normal circumstances, so it feels like we got 8 bonus games anyway. Time to get to work on shoring things up for next season.

[yourchoice]

Habs are playing the Flyers tough. Big bounce back last night, for Hart especially. Hopefully for the Flyers, the Julien effect was only one game.

[icehog3]

Blackhawks live to fight another (at least one) day.

Really wanted Vancouver to score the OT goal last night. :D

[Porch Dweller]

What a comeback by the Bruins! McAvoy's crushing hit on Staal took the piss right out of Carolina and gave the B's the boost they needed. Debrusk was in beast mode. Halak on the other hand gave up two softies and looked like schiesse.

[icehog3]

Big 3rd for the Bs, James.

Corey Crawford looks to stave off elimination a second time tonight. Hopefully Patrick Kane starts denting the twine tonight.

[Buckeye Jack]

Not looking good for the Jackets at this point. If we could have got the win in game 1 (which was actually 2.5 games LOL) I would have felt better...

Going to be tough to pull off another 2019, Jack, the Lightning seem to be clicking on all cylinders now. That being said, I am rooting for the Jackets.

[Buckeye Jack]

Appreciate it! We need all the root's we can get!

[icehog3]

Appreciate it! We need all the root's we can get!

Corey Crawford and his 18 dwarfs could use a reciprocal root please! :D

[E.J.]

As tough as this new “lifestyle” has been, this current NHL TV schedule while working from home 4 days a week is absolute nirvana.

The AVS look very good right now, I think some of that is the ‘Yotes have packed their bags. Actually feel sorry for Kuemper.

[icehog3]

Crazy domination by the Avs last night, E.J.. Be great if they met the Knights for the WCF, think that might be an amazing series.

[icehog3]

Let's Go Canucks! F*** the Blews! :D

[E.J.]

32 more periods like that wouldn’t bug me....

[Malakai]

Man that third period especially the final few minutes was nuts for the Dallas/Colorado game...can’t wait to see what happens in OT.

Good finish! :wo

Disappointed the Canucks couldn't win one more though.

Let's Go Islanders!

[Malakai]

Sick goal by Radulov to end that game in ot right now...Dang!

[icehog3]

31 seconds, yeah! Doesn't make up for the Isles getting beat with 9 seconds left last night, but it helps. :D

Happy to see Tampa win because Tampa/Ybor City is one of my favorite places for vacation.
