Around The League - 2024-25 Regular Season

[TheCountofMonteCristo]

Still 3 more than 34 and 16

so less of a loser than those two...

Hill won that series. LB getting hurt was huge.

 

[Krustchev]

Regardless of who wins tonight, this will be the most Bettmanish Final Four ever. He won.

 

[lecoqsportif]

Edmonton needs Edmunson.

And Armia, and Hoffman and Gallagher.

 

[Habsy]

I fell asleep in the third. Why do they start games that late in the playoffs when they're no other games on?

The only measurement that counts is to be better than the Leafs.

Because ESPN had both the hockey game and Sunday Night Baseball. TV uber alles. As it turned out, Edmonton didn't get one Friday or Saturday home playoff game.

NASCAR Cup

These playoffs once again prove hockey is the ultimate TEAM game - NBA blueprint of superstars surrounded by stiffs doesn’t work.

Was really pulling for McDavid to win - class act who doesn’t whine & bitch deserves better than what Oilers org has been able to cultivate around him. Gotta believe he’s gonzo in 3-years

 

[lecoqsportif]

Yup. He’ll be a TML.

Ultimate team game but you need stars and secondary players all pulling their weight together , combined with some luck and bounces .

No team has ever won a cup without star talent , Kraken will be the only team ever to pull it off

 

[GEEMAN]

Yup. He’ll be a TML.

highly doubt it

 

[lecoqsportif]

Why?

MLSE will go for it after they purge the regular season princelings. Yuge PR W. Massive. They’ll open the vaults for CDM.

 

[Habsy]

Yeah if the Leafs blunder again next year? They may move on from Marner and lure McD

 

[WeHaveMoreCupsThanYou]

Yup. He’ll be a TML.

He owns Edmonton. He's more likely to remain an Oiler for life than become a Leaf. If he ever moves, it will be to the US to escape the fishbowl.

Leafs will sell out putting Cirque De Soleil on skates , money has nothing to do with it

They dont need PR , plus that roster will be in gut mode or cap hell by then for CMD

Well CDM they can have. CMD will be tougher to get.

This.

If their attitude to getting Gretzky was "Meh. How many more tickets would he sell for us?" they won't bother trying to get McDavid.

 

[lecoqsportif]

It’s gonna happen.
