and now a team where you literally cant even play teh sport as a fan in the natural climate is about to possibly win a chip

at least it fucking snows there and standing bodies of water will freeze for periods of time

any team in the south having hockey is a joke

even the stars who i liked back in the 90s, they literally would have nights where the floor melted thru during mavs games

but they also had HOF players at each position including even the other lines

im willing to bet theres zero proven veterans on this predator team and they're just another babby 1 an doner like the countless other meme teams in history

like when fucking San Jose or some shit won a few years ago and supposedly had the next Hasek in goal, meanwhile they never won shit again

Am still new so why have shot totals been so low in the finals? 24 and 24 tonight. Really mediocre considering most teams average around 30 a game. The NYR-Sens series was basically both teams near 40 a game. Obviously the preds won't score a lot if they only peel off 24
>>
>>76424034
You must be very new. It's called defense
>>
>>76424034
When good teams play each other with a lot on the line, they tend to tighten up defensively

who the fuck even has cable in the first place

and i cant be assed to even bother streaming it just to see players dump the puck behind net for a collective 20 min of the game

pass the puck past too many lines for a stoppage

goalie can just cover the puck when ever he feels like it for an auto time out

players can just knock the puck over the glass for an auto time out

also fuck the announcers, Fox before the 04 strike had teh best announcers, now that guy is doing fucking little league and bowling for ESPN and the radio gig for the Oreal's baseball team

and his ex partner is literally clinging to a job at ESPN for the 5 minutes a year they give him air time as they pretend to actually want to support the sport when its still listed 6th on their top bar behind 2-3 other sports which are in off-season all because NHL struck an exclusive deal with NBC during that 04 strtike

also teams suddenly started scoring fucking 8+ goals a game, when prior it would be a great feat to get 3 goals, normally 1-2 and OT's

stars avalanch series in the 90s >>> any shit since 04

I wouldn't consider it cucked if >we don't win at this point. Never led in the series and the team wasn't supposed to be good yet. Even with the result the same in the end going deeper than last year isn't too bad. And I didn't expect to win even the WCF after Johansen got hurt.

What sucks is that some guys like Subban will need surgery so this is cutting into recovery time for next season. And I guess it's sad for the old guys like Fisher who are probably done after this but that's someone every year.

If Ellis is actually hurt and not just being rested for precautionary reasons then the Preds have no real shot. It means Weber or Irwin will get more minutes and they're basically the reason for all the losses this series.

I still would have started Fleury. I think he's much more athletic and suits this matchup well. But a W is a W

sort of.

yesterday the city entered into an agreement with Oakview Group to remodel Key Arena.

Also, OVG also unveiled that they have an NHL group comprised of a Texas Billionaire and Jerry Bruckheimer, the hollywood exec, ready to buy an NHL team.

Now comes the waiting, the OVG plan still has details that need finalizing, an environmental impact study, and a transportation plan to deal with the bad traffic. OVG will present its final bid, to the city council for voting, in December, but it will take longer before its shovel ready. OVG says they are on track to begin construction in 2019, which likely means a team won't be able to play until 2021, unless the NHL group buys the Coyotes. even then, they would need to play in a 9,000 max capacity stadium in Everett while the upgrade is happening.

Also, today Bettman said that the OVG Arena plan works for the NHL.

It's a matter of if, not when for a Seattle NHL team.

Stop being stupid. Race doesn't mean anything in hockey. Subban gets interviewed because he is literally media gold and a unique personality. Has nothing to do with him being black

imagine if that were even josi holding crosby's stick and the same situation ensued. literally no one would be talking about it anymore. maybe a blurb in the highlights, but thats it. now why since its subban is this incident made out to be a case of assault?

They interview him because he's funny and generally no one else besides maybe Neal wants to talk unless they've scored.

CAPS NEWS UPDATE: Braden Holtby WILL again participate in the gay pride parade in Washington DC

Hey Crosby, that was a real class act with Subban. You know, the way you were slamming his head. You're lucky I wasn't on the ice. I would have stabbed a stick through through your throat, ripped your helmet off and slammed your head on the ice until your skull cracked open. Maybe then I would have slashed your throat with my skate blade. You would have been done for good. I really don't care if you win. You're a loser in my book. Praise that, media.

Crosby is Lucifer. The bringer of light, meaning that in appearance he always looked graceful and good but was actually the Devil. Now looking back I'm sure he meant to chop Methot's fingers.

Also notice how Lemieux and Gretzky rarely speak about him or go out their way to praise him. They know he's a lie.

Memeiest part of this is people forcing the idea that Subban and Crosby are building up hate for each other when Subban played years in the east so they'd already hate each other and he is mostly playing against Malkin this series anyway.

One mouthwash post-game comment and a collision where Crosby lost his mind is not really a narrative. Why is the media so pathetic?

Rinne starts next game for sure. If Saros had a shutout and kept it 3-0, then maybe he would have had a shot, but there's no way Rinne gets benched now.

Subban fought back. PK isn't asshurt about it, Crosby isn't asshurt about it. They both know it's fucking hockey. When the series is over they'll shake hands and say congratulations. How this stuff goes over people who claim to be hockey fans heads will never make any sense.

If they had won with Saros maybe he'd stay in since he would have helped them rally but not just going scoreless. You saw the fans in game 3 chanting Pekka during warmups. He's too big to bench.

It's a dumb way to lose though.
>>

Giving up so many high danger shots and scoring zero goals is not on goalie.
Josi needs to be benched and they need to start playing better hockey.

>>
>>76426019
This finn is right. While a lot of saveable shots have gone past Pekka, the chances tonight were just too perfect for the pens. Fucking Arvidsson was playing defense with 10 seconds left in the first period when Kessel and Malkin skated in on him. Why was he there? Where did the Dman? What on earth happened with that Rust goal? After 3-0, clearly the teams checked out a bit. But it's so weird to just say "man rinne is costing us" when the defense which is supposed to be elite, has put him in very bad spots. The first goal his defense screened him too
>>
>>76426037
He didn't have single bad goal in the game. Neither did Saros.

You can't just blame every goal on the goalie.

>>76426019
Two of the goals were Rinne's fault tonight. He wasn't really screened on the pp goal and the backhand was bad. Generally they were playing poorly and giving up too much, but no specific individual needs to be benched.
>>
>>76426050
their elite "defese" is just their offense, and their "offense" are just more "7th Mans" who get to skate with the players

Have the Penguins scored first in every game?

Still. They've scored a grand total of 4 goals in 3 away games. You can have a prime Roy or Hasek in nets and you're not going to win playing like that.

Why are these people obsessed with calling things "career defining" holy fuck. Sid and Geno are 2 time stanley cup champions, and two of the best players this generation. They don't need to do anything else. Both could have retired at the end of last season and we'd still remember them. The preds could have swept them and it still wouldn't really tarnish any "legacy" because they've already got theirs. Also, at this point crosby had 4 points in 4 games and should have had 5 or 6 but guentzel couldn't finish in game 4, and Malkin with two goals. How is this really struggling all that much to begin with? Wow, they failed to repeat, that means they weren't that good. How many teams have even been in this position in the last 20 years? Don't even know why I read that

Crosby-Ovi would've been unbeatable.
Ovi's wheels are falling tho, so Malkin is actually the better pick even considering that Ovi is probably the greatest goal scorer of all time.

Liberals say : all that matters is happiness. That is without regard to the consequences of our actions. And so they seek happiness through illusions.

Speaking of the draft. Is there actually anyone good? We've had some good players the past two, I'm not hearing a lot this time around. Laine, Matthews, Eichel, and McDavid have certainly lived up to their hype. Pulju not so much
>>
What was the last time an NHL star was hated as much as Crosby?

>>76426300
Devils should probably trade their pick for a decent defense man
>>
>>76426295
Just wanted to be a bit positive
>>
>>76426308
>What was the last time an NHL star was hated as much as Crosby?
He's only getting hate because he's the best in the league. You don't hate the losers and the underdogs, and Crosby will never be a loser or an underdog.
>>
>>76426300
It's not as elite as that probably no. But if the devils hold their pick they'll probably take Nolan Patrick. Flyers get Nico, Vilardi to Stars, Mittelstadt to Avs, and Heiskanen to Canucks. Some decent players all around, but definitely not likely to be the superstars from the last two drafts top end
>>
>>76426325
Stop sending finnish defensemen to the canucks. This is just mean. They won't do that.
>>
>>76426320
I don't know anyone who hated Sakic, Yzerman or Lidstrom
>>
>>76426300
I think the best two players this year are like Tkachuk-tier from last year and he should have gone third.
>>
>>76426340
I'm pretty sure Avalanche- and Detroit-fans hated those three players. But they weren't as dominating as Crosby is. In the late 90's early 00's there were at least 10-15 players that competed in being the absolute best. Crosby literally has no competition.
>>
>>76426358
Ovechkin has more points than Crosby tbqhwy
>>
>>76426300
>pulju
he was over-hyped beyond belief by the Finnish memers
This draft is mediocre because all the talent was in the last 2 drafts. The last two drafts are arguably the best draft classes in the last ten years.
Also, Vilardi is good, Suzuki as well. Other than those we really have no clue who will be good because the leagues these guys play in has been drained of talent.
Free Agency has far more players that I'm looking forward to, like D. Raddysh, possibly Kovalchuk, and a few more Russians from the KHL.

>>76426325
If the Canucks draft another Finnish defenseman I think kippers will shoot herself.

>>76426320
Wrong. He plays like a piece of shit scumbag and acts like one. He gets away with what he does because he's a good hockey player, otherwise he would be out of a contract.

>>76426308
Matt Cooke.

>>76426340
That's because they played somewhat like gentlemen and weren't pieces of shit that everyone hated.

>>76426346
Yeah, they are. Not super but good.

>>76426358
No, they didn't. Detroit fans respected Sakic and Av's fans respected Yzerman/Lidstrom.
You're just talking out your ass and it's pretty obvious that you really have no grasp of the NHL.
>>
>>76426358
I'm pretty sure Jagr dominated in that era
>>
>>76426360
But the fact that he never makes it gives Ovi sympathy. Meanwhile, Crosby is in the Finals, in the lead, again.

Agree that this draft looks pretty underwhelming, Devils got pretty unlucky after 2 stacked years.
>>
>>76426392
Devils are still lucky even so. They don't deserve to have the 1st pick at all, yet here it is.
>>
I honestly still think Pulju and Luc-Dubois will actually both be fine, sometimes it takes guys a little bit to find their game in the pros, it ain't as easy as Matthews and Laine made it look
>>
>>76426400
Well almost all their draft picks in the last 15 years have been failures so I'd be surprised if this ended up different.
>>
>>76426387
>crosby dubs
>gay crosby picture

>>76426392
Didn't see the star part. Well, the last hated star I can think of was probably Stevens, but it was nowhere near Crosby's level.
They did get Zacha who is a decent player and McLeod.

>>76426400
>lucky
lets get one thing right, there was zero luck involved in their gaining of the first overall pick. The Debbies are one of the worst attended teams and this is meant to boost them back up.

>>76426406
Obviously, but they're very overhyped. Pulju was a good player on the best line in the world juniors. Luc-Bubois hardly played his draft year.
>>
Preds need to trade up for Nico, need another Swiss twink
>>
Regardless of what happens at the draft, before or after, Ray Shero knows what he's doing. He'll make the right moves for the team eventually
>>
>>76426400
More of a travesty that the Stars are at 3. That is not a very bad hockey team, they're gonna make the playoffs this next season

>>76426369
Before 1997 Yzerman was seen as a guy who never won, like Ovie now. Yeah, they were respected but you can still love or hate a person while you respect them.
>>
>>76426340
Yzerman got plenty of hate before he won the cup. He was the tin man before Jumbo Joe.
>>
>>76426300
>Pulju not so much

I love how these past few drafts have created an illusion for casuals that every high pick is going to make an impact immediately.
Pulju had a better draft+1 season than Draisatl did. Do you think Draisatl hasn't lived up to expectations?
>>
>>76426300
Tolvanen could be a good one if he learns to skate.
Heiskanen is probably maxing out as a 2D, jack of all trades, master of none.
This draft is pretty bad desu.
1st overall is going to be a career 2nd liner.
>>
>>76426470
were you older than 3 in the 90's? because I was and I lived through those years religiously following this game.

>>76426454
There is a difference between hating a player and respecting him. People loath Crosby. They have real and true hate for him and how he conducts himself on the ice. Yzerman had little hate on the other hand, because he didn't go around destroying players and cheating all the time like Crosby does. Ovi might be disliked because he's aggressive but he's someone with heart, unlike Crosby. Subban is a flopper but people like his personality for some reason despite some of his teammates hating it.
Crosby represents in many peoples minds the failures of the cap era, an era full of concussions, busts, the same teams playing for the cup, boring play, and shitty refereeing.

>>76426496
The worst drafts have the best late rounds.
>>
>>76425980
Subban down all the way behind the Penguins net to get into whatever you call it with Crosby.
Honestly just looks like subban is trying to be around Crosby as much as he can when he can, because he knows that will give him more tv time
>>
>>76426504
>Crosby represents in many peoples minds the failures of the cap era
>an era full of concussions
Wtf are you talking about? Before the cap was in place there were a handful of rich teams that could buy themselves success. If a team do that now they will maybe, maybe have one year success or moderate success and then have to pay ridiculous contracts for another 7 years. And regarding concussions...Let's just namedrop Scott Stevens, and leave it at that.
>busts, the same teams playing for the cup, boring play
Busts have always been part of the game. and the same teams playing for the cup? You mean like the Islanders, Oilers and Canadiens did during the 80's or Stars, Avalanche and Red Wings during the 90's? And boring play? Because it was so more exciting during the grab and clutch era filled with 1-3-1 systems...

I don't care who you are, if you think Sidney Crosby has no heart then your hatred goggles are on way too tight. This is just your narrative, because YOU don't like him he has no heart. To even suggest that is pathetic. Why is a man who has missed over a year of his career due to head injuries still playing hockey? He has no reason to play. Yet here he is. Hockey is his life, every damn year no matter how good people say he is he goes right back to work to find areas to improve on. Crosby's in the midst of a historic 2 year run right now, not because refs don't call an occasional penalty on him, not because his teammates carry him, not because his coach is a wizard, but because he's worked his ass off to be where he is, and even if the pens close out this series and become the first repeat champions since the red wings, it doesn't matter, he'll go right back to work and keep trying to work at it. Everything sid has, he has earned. Ovechkin having more heart than crosby, gimme a fucking break. That man is perfectly fine partying in Florida after his team gets their ass handed to them again and again. Complete disgrace that people can unironically think shit like this.
