Around the League 2019-2026 Edition

[MindzEye]

Marner is so good. Like a shitty less skilled McKenna.

Softer too.

Like if McKenna was a less talented bitch.

 

[Preston]

If I didn't have the younger, cheaper, better, more talented version of mitch, I'd take him on my team any day.

 

[Preston]

Ducks are very bad btw

Ducks are very bad btw

I don’t care that they’re in the second round. They’re still actually a non-playoff team.

 

[zeke]

eh Carlsson/Gauthier/Sennecke/Lacombe/Mintyukov/Dostal is a fun enough little young core for me.

Not really taking a shot at the quality of their core or their potential.

Moreso a comment on the utterly broken NHL points and standings system that allows a team that finished 26th overall in the league in regulation wins make the playoffs. Also finished lower in the standings than three Eastern teams that did not qualify for the playoffs.

 

[zeke]

yeah they're not great but not as silly as the kings making it. ducks were middling on the nerdies and the goal diff and were a legit bubble team i think.

 

[Preston]

Super elite shootout team! 8-0.

Fun team but dreadful defensively. Vegas offense comes so easy, even Mitch looks dangerous.

 

[MyNameIsJonas]

Colorado is going to mollywop either of them

 

[Preston]

Do we hope for marner to win and then get shut out in his first series against a good team?

Are you willing to make the Colorado juggernaut call like you did with Florida a couple years ago?

 

[MindzEye]

No. Losing against a lottery team would be way better.

This lot of West teams is just too shit.

I was willing to give Minny a chance though.

Im expecting Colorado v Carolina, had it pre playoff, but im less confident in the east mainly because COL>CAR and BUF/MTL>LV/ANA

Nahh.

Mitch piling up all of the playoff points the collective hockey world sucked his dick and trolled Leaf fans for against two teams that both would've missed the playoffs by a mile in the East---and then getting eliminated by one of those teams---that seems like a much better option to me.

 

[Feyd]

I’m surprised they didn’t gift Marner another apple on the Vegas goal

The entire pacific division should be relegated to the A for a year and win their way back into the league

Always tough to pick the finals in the NHL but this year in particular sure feels like 2 elite teams and a big bag of decent and average and shit after that.

 

[MindzEye]

We were horrific this season.

and only finished behind Anaheim by 14 points. Only behind Anaheim by 3 regulation wins.

Yeah, i thought the Central boasted 3 of the best 4 teams in the NHL in Colorado/Minny/Dallas
