Quoted from ImNotNorm:Not sure if I'm jumping the gun or stealing cdnpinbacon thread thunder here.....

Quoted from ImNotNorm:Evander Kane got a 3 game suspension for abuse of an official.
Hey man that ref attacked him!
Quoted from ImNotNorm:Never seen this before....
Kapanen admitted after the game that he didn't know throwing a broken stick at a player would result in a penalty shot. Lol
News to me!
Haaha radio around here saying it's way shannahans best day firing Babcock cause he hates him so much
Quoted from meSz:McDavid just schooled Morgan Reilly and if you're a Leafs fan you have to love the move, it was that good!
That was sick
Quoted from meSz:Congrats to Backstrom and the Caps .... retaining him is big and good to see he made the deal himself. He probably could've got more going somewhere else but he stated he wanted to stay in DC.
Probably saved a cool 2.5 mill+ with no agent.
Quoted from meSz:Easily as most agent would get 10% minimum I would assume. 45 mil deal so more like 4.5. Again, assuming here
Yeah I assumed 10% but I looked it up once source said hockey is usually 4-6%, so I just went with that.
But I did learn this.."...the National Football League states that an agent can't receive more than 3 percent of player salaries."
Whom knew!
Kraken has always been to smart of a choice but I hope they do it. They'll probably end up going "sockeyes" Uff.
Quoted from Tuna_Delight:Kraken has nothing to do with Seattle. To the contrary, "Sockeyes" does as salmon is a BIG part of Seattle's history, culture, and fishing industry.
Yes thanks for the Seattle history we all know already. I get it, dumb name. Jesus, 'Totems' is somehow better.
Quoted from Tuna_Delight:Hell, if we want to just go for a generic marketing name, might as well name them the Wolverines.
Well, on second thought ... uff.
I guess you're trying to use this against me because of UofM, a school I despise? Well done? I'm a townie!
Quoted from Blitzburgh99:Mario Lemiuex is the only player in NHL history to score 5 goals in every...
NHL Network is showing another game with Mario scoring 5 goals @ 2pm today.
Quoted from cdnpinbacon:Agreed. But healthy Malkin and Crosby ? Huge upset
And Guentzel back
Quoted from ImNotNorm:Still think the playoffs are going to happen?
I do.
Even as poorly as the NHL is run, they had to have a plan in place when the inevitability of players testing positive came true. I don't think anyone running any league thinks no player/coach/crew/field/fan etc etc is going to get the Corvis, it's going to happen 100%
Quoted from cdnpinbacon:Agreed ..Wtf is a witzer
I assume poppapin is joking, but a Yinzer is a Pittsburgian (?) that sort of have their own dialect with words/phrases/delivery.
Quoted from poppapin:Sorry, I am not kidding. I'm from the east side of the state, don't know shit about Pittsburgh.
Ah gotcha, sorry I saw the "collegeville" and thought that was by PSU.
When you ever wonder why Hockey is such a niche sport in 'Merica just admit becasue it is the dumbest run league in the world.
The #1 pick in the draft will go to a playoff team...just dumb beyond words.
Quoted from meSz:LA is no way going to be one of the Hub Cities and it will surprise me if Vegas allows it as well.
I know, I saw Vegas and laughed.
Quick look says the Canadians are the worst team in the PO and seem to have the inside line on #1?
They had 32 more points than the Wings FFS
Uh oh don;t the play the Pens round 1...no #1 pick for you
Quoted from Who-Dey:When are the playoffs supposed to start anyway?
No confirmed date yet. "Late July or Early August" I think is the best official info as of now.
Quoted from Who-Dey:They will get the playoffs done and it will almost be time to start the new season. Sweet!
Yeah that'll be weird for sure. Maybe take a longer break for next year allstar and let everyone rest?
Thank god it's the Kraken; best name they were considering. Thought for sure they'd take Sockeyes and bore me to death.
Quoted from mymalibu:What were the options?
Totems, Emeralds, Rainiers, Sockeyes, Renegades, Sea Lions, Seals, Evergreens, Whales, Cougars, Eagles and Firebirds
Quoted from Tuna_Delight:C'mon now - "Sockeyes" is a classic "old-time hockey" name!
It is...if there wasn't a dumb fish involved
Quoted from jaytrem:I was still hoping for Metropolitans, but figured it wasn't happening.
Yeah the whole division name thing probably killed this name.
Quoted from luch:when is seattle starting play , this upcoming season ?
Yes after this playoff season, 21-22
Quoted from Tuna_Delight:"Please ... these aren't the Houston Oilers we're talking about.
Hey that was "Love Ya Blue!"
Quoted from newovad:I think logos that need to include a hockey item look childish.
Pens, Caps, Islanders, Sharks, Kraken, added Vancouver for the greatest logo ever....is that all of them?
Quoted from ImNotNorm:The jersey and logo looks horrible!
I actually like the font and the Kraken.
I don't know why you'd think Seattle, home of the worst color combos, would have something better
Gentlemen start your beards!
Oh sorry am I late? Been on the phone with comcast all day, no tv or internet till at best tomorrow
Quoted from beergut666:...but if they lose this series and get the #1 overall pick
The fix is always in on the Pens....they wouldn't get it
Quoted from hwyhed:2 penalty shots in a playoff game?!
I know right?!? That was weird..and Ticky tack
Quoted from Jackontherocks:....shocked pens lost
Are you? This is the fucking laziest team I've seen in a decade; It's like 5 Hal Gills out there.
I was ambivalent to Marlau but thought maybe being on a new team would jazz him up and get him going for a couple of key plays here and there.
Noooooope.
Quoted from meSz:So how boring is the Pens Habs to watch .... boring enough that NBC here in the States switched over to the Preds game ..... which they're also showing on the NHL Channel
I was coming here to say this is as bad as the days we had to watch playoff games on the "Outdoor Life Network," but to be honest I think we were saved from watching it.
Quoted from Canuck_pinhead:Defensive games are interesting... if you know what you're watching...
I know what I'm watching and neither of these teams are playing great anything other than goaltending.
Quoted from beergut666:What is Pierre McGuire gonna do now that he doesn't have Crosby to fellate for the rest of the playoffs?
Better question is whom will Millburry hate on?
Quoted from Blitzburgh99:We have a 12.5% chance.....so we got that going for us. Which is nice.
[quoted image]
My brother texted me and said "Well we had less than a 12.5% percent chance of winning the cup, so this is an improvement."
Quoted from ImNotNorm:Columbus and Tampa going to quadruple overtime!
I remember watching the 4OT Pens/Caps game in 96...I had a class the next morning and it killed me.
I was at the 3OT Pens/Wings game in 08. That sucked casue I kept wanting to get 1 more beer but could never pull the trigger.
Quoted from Jackontherocks:...does this mean it’s an easy run for the Flyers if they get past Montreal or are the Isles for real?
Umm..Boston and Tampa
Milbury is a fucking dipshit. You can cry SJW or cancel culture all you want, but sometimes it just the final straw, or even a good little push, to get rid of a douche that brings nothing to the table.
Quoted from TheLaw:Just shitcan Mike Milbury already...use any excuse I don;t care.
