Youre right. Hawks fans had a bad stretch. They lost a large portion of the market when the owners took the games off tv. There's not denying this. I said in the last thread I started watching in 2007 when I was 13 and finally played hockey for the first time. Its a sport you need to learn to appreciate before you can watch and follow. Little kids have a hard time following cause its not always as aesthetically pleasing as a big homerun or long touchdown pass

well he does have a 6.75M a year contract and he's the captain of both his club and his national team so don't feel too bad for the guy. he's appreciated by the people whose opinion matters even if he doesn't make it to many casual fan internet ranking lists.

>>74220775
He came into camp 20 pounds (230 pounds 6'2) overweight 3 times in a row. They made him stay in Vancouver the whole summer and train in team arena but he still came in overweight. He's going to be Kieth Tkachuk tier fat once he retires

Are the hawks elite this year? They will probably represent the west right?

Lol no. No swedish criminologist denies that immigrants are over represented and that immigrants from mena countries, and their children, are more over represented that other etnic categories.

I have no idea where he got that dumb shit from.

At least Sweden isn't as cucked as Canada. We've eliminated recording the races of criminals since the 90's due to over representation. You can't make an argument that immigration is a problem because people ask for numbers and we don't record them, and you can't bring up statistics from other countries because "they're not a representation of Canada".

assistant coach with the pengos

he's still around

What the fuck just happened

>>74223464
scouting has helped the oilers, stats are irrelevant

the stats fag got fired and the team got better, not a coincidence

>>74223479
where are you getting this galchenyuk bs you retard

>>74223467
pk is equally bad defensively

Babcock, Julien and Boucher

Decent coaches in eastern Canada

>>74223470
have you seen PK in Nashville? He's nowhere near as good as Josi. Good player but overrated and Nashville is hurting because they didn't get the player they thought they were getting.

Will the >hasb take Boucher after Julien unavoidably fails and the Sens proceed with their bi-annual coach firing?

>>74223517
getting a free generational talent was not a coincidence?

>>74223517
Yeah Im sure thats it, not adding Connor McDavid that made the Oilers decent

Doesn't matter. Price is regressing hard and will eventually be dealt to Avs for Duchene and a 5th rounder.

>firing your coach when you're in 1st in your division

top kek, fuck the habs

>>74223569
of course McDavid helped the team you retard but you're deflecting from the main point which is that traditional scouting >>>>>>>> stats for every single team including the oilers and cantpucks

be more grateful for the scouts who found you horvat, if they had listened to beta statscucks like you you'd have ended up with a bust like nichushkin

>>74222954
Bruins won't make it lel. Islanders got the team, and it's inevitable for rask to fall apart come march

>>74223587
They've lost 6 of their last 7 heading into the break. They're regressing hard.

What is it with habs and their love for french-canadian coaches, what is even the point of it when you just limit yourself that much.

This is the 2nd time Therrien's been replaced by Julien. On February 15, 2003 Therrien was fired and then replaced by Claude Julien as Head coach of the Montreal Canadiens

people were complaining because he wasn't playing as well as he used to. he made rookie mistakes and had trouble even covering a guy. he was blamed for that, and that's ok. no point in denying it.
few people think he won't come back to his old self after a huge injury. the guy obviously has a shit load of talent. bossy was hard on him and he admitted that. damphousse is maybe the only one who didn't cut him some slack far as I know, and damphousse is a retard.
everyone knew sakic was asking too much. no one thought that was a good trade.

So I don't get it, what is the point when he's not even about to hit those sticks on the ground he is supposed to try and hit.

Nothing. Just wouldn't be able to score any runs. He really shouldn't have tried to go for it anyway.

It wasn't bad enough for a wide though.

Jacques Martin to me is the reason why they didn't win the stanley cup in these year lol

>>74223719
I can see the Pens making a decent bid for him. Varlamov out for the season they could deal Fleury to them. Fleury, Pouliot, 1st rounder and either Sprong or Guentzel for Duchene, Zadorov, and a 3rd. Duchene can play wing. Right now the Pens need help up front with all the injuries. If they didn't have the injuries I'd say they would pass on him but they could use him.

>>74223872
No. But that webm is from limited overs. Each team gets to bat once, and only a certain number of overs before they switch. That match was probably 50 overs. 6 pitches per over, so 300 pitches.

The closest thing to a "ball" would be a wide, which is when the umpire determines that it was a shit pitch the batter had no chance at. batter gets a free run and the bowler has to do it again.

>>74223812
it's the scouts making their team's draft rankings at the end of the day, statscucks will never be allowed near something so important

More likely than not Pittsburgh will come out from the east.

But regardless of regular season success Therrien's offenses have been embarassed far too often to think he could ever win a cup without players like Crosby/Malkin operating on their own accord.

Has to be clear above the head if it's bounced. You're allowed one ball bounced at the shoulders per over. This is a short pitched ball.

If it doesn't bounce, and is pitched above the waist its a wide. This is a full pitched ball.
