2023-24 NHL Misc. Thread

[HeyKurtz]

I know Askarov has been very, very good in the AHL but it all strikes me as a bit early to go that hard for a goalie with so few NHL games under his belt ... no matter how good the raw talent might be. But hey. That's me. Mr Wet Blanket.

Going forward, I will refer to you as WB, instead of JB.

That sphere is ridiculously cool.

I don’t think my sensory response to all those flashing lights would be a positive one

According to these ESPN analysts every player drafted so far is the next great player in the history of the sport

What's the percent of 1st rounders who stick in the NHL ?

 

[TheBigKahuna]

About 20% will play 200 games.

Someone tell Emily Kaplan. So far there have been 14 Gretzky’s, 6 Lidstroms and a few Patrick Roys selected.

Trade alert!

Edit - well that was boring

Extra dart for Tulsky and company to throw!

We sent 27 to Chicago for 34 and 50

I’m tapping out. About as exciting as watching paint dry.

 

[Christer]

I sat up the whole night for nothing.

This is why the Dundon/Tulsky Canes don't do draft watch parties.

We’re touching up with some top quality Benjamin Moore this weekend if you wanna drop by and watch. It’s gonna be all kinds of crazy.

Ahhh...Benjamin Moore - the king of paints.

We got home from dinner well before the Canes pick. We delayed watching a few episodes of The Bear until after the pick. We fell asleep during episode 4, woke up in the middle of episode 5 and went to bed.

 

[NoMich]

We watched the last two episodes of Dark Matter and during the finale I saw that the Canes had made one of their patented boring picks deals that ultimately benefit the team somehow. I highly suggest Dark Matter. It's on Apple TV. Season 4 of Slow Horses starts this Fall.

 

[TheBigKahuna]

I can't believe I stayed up for that.

Especially after listening to all the guys on XM say that after the first few picks, the rest of the field wasnt very different. And how boring this draft class was.
