>>154566494Philly really got lucky in both getting into the playoffs and winning the first round didn’t they
>>154566603>Hurricanes>advancing past the ECF
>>154566603Avs Buffalo
>>154566603Retard
>>154566603canes get figured out eventuallyit's in the script
the play that ended the Flyers' season
>>154566690love me a goal line savehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AB2DIYzw4Lc
Hoc really is ded
>>154567139Then show me its body.
>>154566704I hate Jordan Martinkook for some reason. My blood starts to boil whenever I hear or read his stupid name.
>>154567139Just like my islanders
>>154567139Gary is killing interest in the league by pushing the Hurricanes so hard.
i bought some beer today and there was this girl like a full foot taller than me buying wine or some shit and my face flushed and i felt my heart rate spike so i'm watching the flyers suck balls and lose to rod and his group of fucking retards and instead of enjoying being drunk now i'm thinking of that giant specimen of a woman i didn't share a word with while coping with the fact the flyers are about to be swept while drunk so basically i really want to jump in front of a bus extra hard tonight fuck rod fuck aho fuck spankoven fuck michkov you fat fucking russian piece of shit do something
neither the canes or avs will make the final
>>154567256Because this is my united states of whatever
>>154567257Who's stopping the Avalanche in the west?The Wild are outmatched and the Pacific retards won't stand a chance
>>154567263oh that would be the golden knights bro thanks for asking
the houston horns
>>154567266they're losing to the ducks
>>154567275cope it's tied
When Sean Avery was with the Kings it led to fights in the locker room because of his bullying of Dustin Brown, mercilessly mocking Brown's lisp, mocking Brown's girlfriend. One of the trainers for the team put Avery in a chokehold to get him to stop.
>>154567293More like the absolute state of hockey eh fellas
whats the score should i catch the end?
>>154567263I will with my trusty boomerang.
at backlash
danhausen called em the "saab rays" like in the office kek
>>154567469these stats are just getting ridiculous now

>>154567546ducks take 1 on the road and they're still at 39% huh
Watching the hasb(eens) crashing out is beautiful.
knights play tomorrow i reckon they will win bro's it is time to stop playing like SHIT
Go Sabres
tkachuk triple gold club huntingryan ufko will impress here
>>154567621that roster looks like shit
>>154567629Just like my islanders
>>154567633shut the FUCK up
>>154567621grim
>>154567634No
>>154567621hu i tought matt olivier was quebeckerbut apparently was born in biloxi from quebec parents and did his pro hockey in quebecil sendbhom a greasy fuck you next tome i see himwtf timmy donna do
>>154567621the americans are back to treating this like a development camp
>>154567642yeah I was going to comment on that, this is his first time ever playing internationally so it was probably his only chance
>>154567643just like my cock
bex called iyo iyo janetty
>>154567602Yeah, that doesn't pass the eye test of how the games actually played out. Knights are lucky it's tied. They look so much slower than the Ducks. Also not a good sign for them that it's tied despite both games being played how Vegas prefers (low event defensive battles) instead of how Anaheim prefers (pond hockey). If the Ducks are able to dictate pace and force higher event games at home in the next couple games they are taking a 3-1 lead back to Vegas in Game 5.
>>154567664based retard
>>154567621Who gets a letter beside Chucky and Faulk?
>>154567621I would be utterly surprised if this roster win.

i hate gary so much
>>154567869kek
Oiler fans are NOT happy that their McDrai merchant pylon wasn't nominated for the norris
>>154567972kwab
>>154567972Erik Karlsson put up 101 points and finished -26 and the voters handed him the Norris like it was a birthday gift.Evan Bouchard drops 95 points, finishes +25, quarterbacks one of the best offenses in hockey, and can’t even crack the finalist list.But sure, apparently “voter fatigue” is this sacred rule that only exists when it’s time to take the Hart away from McDavid. Meanwhile Makar could probably miss a month, come back wearing ski boots, and still get penciled into the Norris conversation automatically.At this point I just want someone to explain what the criteria even are anymore, because it changes every single year depending on who the media already decided they like.
>samir's mad againmust be a day that ends in y
>>154568126>>154567972The norris is a dog shit trophy anywaysWhy do forwards get offensive awards and the selkie for a defensive forward?Why can't they just make a proper inverse selkie award for defensemen and make the norris and actual defense award
>my penguins died just so these shitters could get sweptits not fair
g r i m
>>154568348BASED fans. if the team doesn't care about the game why should they.
my flyers will reverse sweep and i will be acxepting all of your apologies hehe :) and then we can be frens again
>>154568348every game has empty seats behind the teams because those are expensive as fuck and mostly bought as business gifts so they rarely get used
>>154568418someone lipread it
>>154568418Something "fuck up" and "to me" at the end? "You fucking listen to me" maybe?

>>154568418>>154568420
>>154568271>metroslop turns out to be metroslopNobody could have predicted this
>>154568636True since mine didn't show up today in true marner fashion
>>154568604The Oilers correctly targeted the only dumbass GM in the league that might've possibly accepted that Nurse contract.
>>154568271>my penguinsHal?Is that you?
The Michkov thing is really getting old. I'm trying not to harp on it, but like...Michkov has his defensive issues. But this, frankly, mismanagement and fear of using a high risk high reward player, is really getting tiresome. He's a playmaker. They will make mistakes, especially when young. If the Flyers organization is this deathly afraid of that, trade him. Get some value out of him in assets if you refuse to use him on the ice. He can't learn if he doesn't make mistakes.There's really no excuse for conditioning at this point. All the guys are dog tired. I don't know if Tocc just doesn't like him or if it's the language barrier. Treating him like an AHLer, may as well send him down for development. They're sheltering him worse than they did Jett Luchanko. This is like locking a kid in a closet until he's 16 and expecting him to be socially competent. Yeah he can speak the language, but how is he supposed to know the nuance and norms that way? He's being screwed in finding game flow and rhythm. That's vital to players with Michkov's skillset. They're rhythm based.After finally getting more than 30 seconds on ice, likely due to other players being tired, he nearly wins the game 3 times and setup or had our most dangerous chances in the OT game.Fuck, Meech doesn't get his shot deflected off a dropped stick in OT last game. It slides past the goalie and they win.This game? Fucking stapled to the bench. Under 10 minutes is malpractice.We should keep giving the ice time to guys like Foerster, Dvo, and TK. Who do nothing with more.Yes, I'm a Flyers fan. But as a bigger hockey fan. This hurts my soul to see such a promising talent smothered like this. Even more so, that it's my fucking team that's wasting him.Either accept some errors, send him down to get some ice speed through actually skating in games, or trade him before you completely neuter his value.Cause this deadlock? Hurts the player, the franchise, and pisses your fans the fuck off.
whos michi going to play with in anaheim?and how are people going to separate michi from mintykov
>>154568604>reportedly
>>154568986Why would the flyers send michkov to anaheim
>>154567643Ah, was wondering what that was.He has security detail as well.
>>154569107its the only team they do business with

Our flyers fucking SUUUUUUUUUCCCCKKKKKKKKK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
>>154569914Initially I didn't either. I think they're saying bc it's so quiet. Very dumb post
>>154566566People in Philly cant read
>>154566566what a bunch of jerks
I have decided not to suck my own dick but only because I can't
>>154567621Worse roster than Sweden somehow. We don't have any stars like Tkachuk though.
Big game today. I would like to thank Mr Gary for it
>>154569930they should have compared it to one of those autism quiet rooms

go back to hfboards boomer.
One time I called Anaheim analslime to a normie
Bailing out the leafs was the correct move . Can you imagine the revenue losses if Toronto really sunk as badly as they deserve too
>>154570442I too have used 4chan lingo in the real world. I double down and people just tend to think im insane(fun) but in reality im insane
>>154570420That tie breaker kek
>>154570454I don't understand what he is trying to say
The finals should be Vegas vs Buffalo with Vegas winning so Gary can be happy and Buffalo's curse can continue
>>154570491>VegasThey cant beat the ducks
Canes making it all the way to CF is just pathetic
>>154570503It's your mistake if you misunderestimate Gary
am I hearing correctly that the flyers leapfrogged the bruins and will be getting the laffs unprotected second round pick next season as compensation for Scott Laughton
>>154570509Metro has been a joke for years
>>154570512Gary says not so fast, it's still top 10 protected
>>154570513Just like my Islanders
>>154570512I think it's funnier and they get to choose who gets which pick
>>154570527>it's still top 10 protected
Good morning frens!
if laffs dont trade their pick they are going to keep sucking and give high picks away in the coming two years

>>154570666>>154570667Sorry Satan and friend, but it was actually a first round pick

>>154570968Enjoy your hockey Pekka!
>>154569263they all took lessons from your mum?
>>154570828GM, hopefully some good hockey tonight.Gary needs to get those reffies under control.
>>154570933Gary's league. No trades because every player has an NMC. No decent FAs because every player signs with their current team. Only way to get better is to tank for 6 years and draft.
>>154571068>draft 1st overall>end up with a bustyeah get better....
>>154571068but tanking also doesnt work because gary rigs it for big markets
>>154571080If the league was rigging for the leafs they might have won something in the last 60 years.
Ivar Stenberg is going to fall to my hawkies at fourth :)
>>154571068UFA classes will be underwhelming for a few more years because a lot of players signed long term deals for financial security during/just after the pandemic. But with the cap finally rising again more players will want to test free agency instead of taking the first long term deal their current team offers. It's expected to go up 10 million per year for the next couple years.

>>154571619you don't need to feel bad for edmonton, never feel bad for edmonton
>>154571588>>154571619also this is why i was mega pissed at the Philly "fans" yesterday for not supporting their team even while getting outplayed (like the oilers), seeing the arena dead quiet on the 3rd and ppl leaving was crazy

Going blind anon here. The red and orange do blend in together, right or am I going color blind?
>>154572594Let’s hope my leaf friend
Darren said that Matthews still wants to leave Toronto even after they got first overall? What an ungrateful prick.
>>154572667he wants to play for the Flames like all american boys
>>154572712Which teams will be scary soon?
>>154572086Hockey fans default setting is rooting against the Blackhawks because they're resentful of their past success and the spotlight they take up when they're good. No 1OA pick has more people rooting against him than Connor Bedard, if he went to like Anaheim or the Blue Jackets all you would hear about is how underrated he is. An original six team that had a dynastic run not that long ago gets awarded with the #1 pick after a pretty bad scandal doesn't sit right with a lot of people. They know that the Blackhawks are going to be good again in the near future so they're shit-talking them while they still can
>>154572712Oilers are going to be an AHL team soon
>>154572712F L A M E SLAMES
>>154572712My penguins ):
>>154572726Bedard will be going into his 4th year and hasn't done jackshit
>>154572728obsessed
The Blackhawks will now have the following picks in the next 3 NHL Drafts: 20261 firsts3 seconds 2027 3 first 2 seconds 2028 1 first2 seconds (+ an extra 4th from the Brossoit deal)
>>154572667Even with McKenna, Toronto isn't a serious contender any time soon. Their defense is still just as shit as it was while they were making the playoffs every year. That all offense/no defense strategy didn't work back then, so why should Matthews waste the rest of his career hoping it will work this time just because lottery balls gifted them another twink winger? Toronto should trade Matthews/Nylander to build around McKenna/Knies. Out with the old, in with the new.
>>154572763Treliving traded all their draft picks their rebuild failed
IT'S OUTGET EXCITEDGET EXCITED GET EXCITED
headed to 2nd overtime in liigaland
>>154572737get it all out while you can, make the most of this moment in time
>>154572767I know, but the draft picks or prospects to build around McKenna/Knies would come from trading away Matthews/Nylander.
>>154572769Celebrini :D
>>154572769Why isnt bedard here
>>154572769Grim
>>154572794Why don't you just google it you fat faggot?

>>154573066They posted it yesterday
>>154573008oh, well thanks for getting my good side
>>154573078Devin Cooley will be the starter
>>154572874He looks delicious
>>154572769yep, you're losing
>>154573078That sure is a team I suppose.Has hockey players on it.
>>154572769emmitt finna
>>154573078no wolfie no watchie
>>154573078where is luke hughes?
was missing smtgfinal
>mountainbelt eastern conference final
>>154573078chucky finna get his ass beat
>>154572986>since 2000ok sure lets not act like the NBA has had 7 different winners in the last 7 different seasons meanwhile the NHL had a repeat stanley cup final matchup and the last 6 finals have either had the Lightning or Panthers.In MLB the Dodgers have won b2b and 3 this decadeThe NFL is reigned by the same few teams, and the Chiefs have also won 3 super bowls this decade and have been in 5.Every major league aside from ironically the NBA has been in a period of relative lack of parity at least in terms of playoff results. Even the MLS, which is ridiculously not on here despite having the 9th most revenue anually of ANY sport league in the world, has had significantly more parity than the MLB NFL and NHL this decade and considering its a fucking soccer league that's impressive. Though yes compared to past decades this is still a very high level of parity across all leagues.
>>154573178I just picked 2000 because sven brought it up and it's a round number. I can recalculate it with another arbitrary cutoff
>>154573128Thanks
*luke hughes at the dinner table* hey guys, wow great game haha. c-can i see the medal? no? haha alright you guys always like to tease me. no for real though, show it to me. do it! MOM! JACK WONT SHOW ME HIS MEDALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL *fights*
>>154573178when they say "parity" they just mean the winning % of the teams isnt as dramatically spread out as it was in the 70s/80s when the worst teams in the league would have a sub 20 winning %.
>>154573178Hey bud nice to have you back
kwab
triple overtime in Kouvola
>>154573232we only know about helsinki
>>154573232Stay strong, Pekka
just poured myself an orange vod-juice-ka
>>154572794Busy filming the next season of Heated Rivalry
>>154573281we call those screwdrivers
I'm going KoKo watching this
>>154573243>The population of Kouvola is approximately 78,000.
>>154573312mine is literally just orange juice mixed with vodka so i decided to call it orange vod-juice-ka. give it a shot!
>>154573343That's a screwdriver
>>154573281I haven't been drinking, smoking weed or eating slop for about a month now but don't worry the crashout is coming
>>154573361i was worried
>>154573343Pace yourself bud
>>154573095Anyone had buffalo is it any good? There's a farm with Buffalo you can see from the road like 45 mins from my house.
>>154573388I’ve had ground buffalo and it’s pretty good. But beef is cheaper
>>154573388yeah, it's pretty goodted turner did a lot for re-establishing buffalo rip to a yung nigga
Who's the autistic swede i'm arguing with in another thread
>>154573443me
>>154573443Me, I made a simple point and you had a meltdown
>>154573361I’ll have a goyslop feast when the finals begin
>>154573443You're going to have to be more specific
>>154573443that's me bozo *jackss off in your face*
>>154573463you mathematically lost the argument and have been desperately trying to pivot
Less than a bong until waging is over
>>154573520go have your argument with your boyfriend somewhere else.
Buffalo Buffalo Buffalo Buffalo Buffalo Buffalo Buffalo Buffalo
...is a real sentence!
>>154573520No I didn't. I said 32 teams means it's very unlikely for your team to win and something like a 50 year drought is not unlikely. You can't even disprove this mathematically since it's mostly subjective how often you expect a team to win.I never said NHL has low parity, that's a different discussion
The horse raced past the barn fell
>>154573558Buffalo
gooooooooo sabies!
>>154573229>gary wants to extend the season to 84 games>redditors want expanded playoffs
>>154573578My entire goal was to prove that american sports have vastly superior parity to european ones and i succeeded.
habs sabres over 5.5 goals @ -125
my sabbies (& moussies) :)
>>154573603I never said they didn't. Like I said you could have a league with a million teams and absolute perfect parity, it doesn't mean your team is very likely to win. A toddler could understand this
my ghouls :(my cord :(
>>154573618I already computed it based on pool size, american sports came out ~3x better than european soccer
>>154573603an even distribution of championships is not what "parity" is.
>>154573631how would you define and measure it then?
Randy is gonna have a bit of rest before the ECF with our dabres eh?
>>154573578Retard
2 month off season would be enough
>>154573643>>154573216
>>154573600/hoc/ is for frens
>>154571332Why are the opinion of sports writers asked for at all? Back when proper newsrooms existed, everyone knew they were a pack of drooling retards.
>>154573626Pool size is retarded because the NHL doesn't have promotion and relegation. Our leagues are inflated if you count any shitter team that happened to touch the highest league for a meme year
>>154573656regular season record is irrelevant compared to championshipwhat sane person would rather go undefeated and choke in the playoffs versus having a shit regular season record and then winning it all
What is everyone munching on for the games tonight? For me it's pizza and wings as well as chips and dip.
>>154573651In an ideal world the season would be entirely wrapped up by May
>>154573680i roasted a turkey and it came out dry so i'm going to be eating a lot of turkey soup for a while
>>154573680I think I’ll get pizza as well since dominos has a deal
>>154573689Turkey soup is good!
>>154573689I haven’t had turkey since last year
>>154573673bullshit, a key argument yuros always use about how superior soccer is muh pro/rel which means by definition the teams in the "running" are changing (even though they're just punching bags and only once in a blue moon win anything)even if you take away this fact and give them the advantage american sports remain superior in parity
>>154573678it was never about an even distribution of champions like you keep trying to frame it. lets look at the canucks this season, or the sharks last season, a .317% and .354% point percent would not have been the worst record in the nhl any year during the 70s. thats what "parity" is. the spread of teams is much smaller.
>>154573700aren't you atvwar with them?
allegedly kouvola has run out of coca-cola
Oh the fucking yuro hockey leagues use pro/rel which is why sven chose to die on this hill
>>154573719and gary intentionally keeps the nhl on a 2 point system to keep this gap small.
>>154573722Food is a collective gratitude mechanism, it doesn't matter. We all bond through food.
>>154573719It's all about who wins the championship. Regular season records cease to matter the second the playoffs are locked in
>>154573694Their new slice sauce is pretty good
I have a great idea for the next thread...
>>154573713pro/rel is a bit funny because it creates a battle for the shitters, I never said it was better or worse. You sound like a schizo at this point making shit up to argue against
>>154573724now das a late game right there
>>154573725>another ded swedecuck
>>154573751tomorrow's game is gonna be rough lel
>>154573724How quickly can they get more?
Has Stephen become a hockey writer yet? How is he using his degree?
>>154573743What is it? We’re eager to learn
>>154573761Kouvola - Tampere road trip gonna feel like Helsinki - Kemi!
>>154573735so by that definition champions league is the only form of soccer that matters, and that has had a larger diversity of winners over the past 6 seasons than the nhl. you are fucking retarded.
>>154573790>so by that definition champions league is the only form of soccer that mattersand the EPL, yes for club soccer
>>154573737Then I shall order from them tonight
>>154573725probably the right system for them, the huge advantage the best soccer teams in the biggest leagues have in finance and infrastructure doesn't apply to like frolunda
New>>154573802
>>154573790>past 6 seasonsnice cherrypicked timeframe
>>154573795and when aresenal wins it this year, that will be 6 different champions in 7 years, while the nhl only had 6 in that same time, even including this years new winner.
>>154573717based
>>154573229They played a lot of extra games like the kitties, oh well!
