Lots of "ref you suck!" chants so far in round 1.

#3544 1 year ago
Quoted from beergut666:

Nice bounce back for the Islanders. That crowd was jacked all night long.

They needed that game. Hoping the canes advance though.

Quoted from ImNotNorm:

Lots of "ref you suck!" chants so far in round 1.

And now in LA!! Lol

A lot of cities think the NHL refs suck.

Oilers taking dumb penalties in crucial moments.

Cost them again.

#3557 1 year ago

Acciari for Toronto
Hedman for Tampa

Just get it on net....anything can happen.

#3563 1 year ago

Time for the 3rd OT of the day.

#3566 1 year ago

Lizzo 2.0 belted out some nice anthems tonight in LA.

#3571 1 year ago

Now the question is......Who starts in net for the Oilers game 5?

#3576 1 year ago

Leafs/Tampa series all tied up 2 games apiece.

Now that the Leafs are on to round 2, I hope they put up a fight against Boston.

No comment.

#3590 1 year ago

For the Pens fans here....

#3599 1 year ago

Hyman just scored a goal with his face to make it 5-2 Oilers. (End of 2nd)

#3613 1 year ago

Bunting a healthy scratch for tonight's game 5.

#3615 1 year ago

Nylander is a coward. Afraid of the corners.

His whole game is exposed come playoff time.

#3621 12 months ago
Quoted from finnflash:

Well I'm 0 for 1 so far

Don't feel bad. Someone picked the jets to win it all in their bracket.

#3623 12 months ago

How many series are ending tonight?

#3627 12 months ago

Bruins/Panthers is a barn burner tonight!

#3632 12 months ago
Quoted from jaytrem:

I need MN to win.

Same here.

Florida taking it to game 7. I kind of hope they win just to blow up everyone's brackets. lol

#3640 12 months ago

Nice to see Holl scratched. Not sure why Keefe likes him so much.

#3641 12 months ago

Eberle broke Cogliano's neck last night. He finished the game but is now out indefinitely.

No suspension? Wtf?

#3644 12 months ago

YEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

#3646 12 months ago
Quoted from TheLaw:

Congrats Leaves!

GO FLORIDA!!!

#3647 12 months ago

Barn burner in LA tonight.

Another OT would be sweet.

#3650 12 months ago
Quoted from TheLaw:

WTF that was a Fluery style goalie giveaway there

Worst time for a stick to break.

#3656 12 months ago

Dear Florida,

Blow up my bracket.

Signed,
A hockey fan

#3658 12 months ago
Quoted from hwyhed:

I can’t see anyone (in our pool) picking the panthers in this series.

Nobody did, I checked. Same for Seattle.

#3687 12 months ago

Colorado is next??

Let's go Kraken!!!

#3691 12 months ago
Quoted from JMK:

That Bruin game was brutal. What an implosion.
Panthers simply outplayed them in OT.
Not sure FLA will be an easy out for the Leafs either.

Nothing is easy when it's the NHL playoffs.

They had a 3-0-1 record against Florida in the regular season. Doesn't mean squat come playoffs.....but it's better than the losing record the Leafs had against Boston in the regular season.

Would be neat to see the Leafs decimate the sunshine state's cup dreams

#3693 12 months ago

Bruins only lost 12 games all season.

But managed 4 losses in 7 games of round 1 of the playoffs.

#3695 12 months ago

Well, my bracket is done.

May as well start packaging the Oilers jinx hat for this year's bracket winner.

#3697 12 months ago
Quoted from newovad:

Thank goodness they started early enough that I can stay up to watch. Hope the COL/SEA isn't an all timer because I'll be asleep for sure by the third.

I have a sneaking suspicion the game is going to OT.

#3698 12 months ago

What a crazy 1st round so far!!!

#3703 12 months ago

Didn't take long for my favorite youtube sports shitposter to come up with a video for the Bruins epic choke.

Glorious!

Quoted from wolverinetuner:

The bigger they are….

....the harder they get meme'd!!

#3714 12 months ago

Florida panthers will only sell tickets to US residents for round 2. For now....

https://www.cbc.ca/sports/hockey/nhl/panthers-ticket-sales-american-residents-maple-leafs-nhl-1.6827836

#3717 12 months ago
Quoted from Rdoyle1978:

Obviously they aren’t worried about demand… this is because of all the Canadian snowbirds

I think they are restricting sales because they don't want to have more opposing fans in their barn.

I have a feeling many leaf fans will be buying on the secondary market.

(It's actually cheaper to fly to Miami, rent a car, rent a hotel and buy tickets.....than it is to just buy tickets for the maple leaf home games)

#3719 12 months ago
Quoted from TheLaw:

Happens every year multiple times/multiple teams.
EDIT: well usually it's just zip code thing not another country

I have a feeling Canadian snowbirds with a US zip code are being hounded by friends and family to buy tickets. Lol

#3723 12 months ago
Quoted from Khabbi:

I have to ask the Toronto / Canadian fan base- why do you boo the U.S. National Anthem? During every home game in Toronto, you can hear the boo's.
I'm not going to classify all of the fans as the ones doing it.. but I can tell you this, if someone did it at one of the games I was at, the other fans would correct the offender pretty fast, regardless of which countries national anthem was being sung.

I don't think I've heard any anthem booing thus far. There's always a few idiots out there regardless.

At Tampa the fans were yelling at Kyle Dubas to "go back to Canada!"

I don't put too much stock into idiot fans doing idiotic things. Unless they jump on the ice or try to fight with players in the penalty box. LOL

#3724 12 months ago

Ticketmaster and the Florida Panthers are reversing their decision on Tuesday May 2nd.

Ticket sales must not be that good, lol.

#3727 12 months ago
Quoted from Khabbi:

You do realize that Dubas was in a box well above the fans, there is no way they would even see him unless he leaned forward.. it's next to the press box way up in the nosebleed 300 level. The fans were excited after Point was injured and Dubas reportedly screamed down and told people to "shut up" and started it.. That's the story that I heard. But any GM engaging in a visiting teams fan base is unusual and HE's the one that did it.

I watched the video. Dubas got heated just as much as the fan. Not sure what he said and who started it.

Oilers fans after game 1 threw beer on the ice. Almost hit Doughty.

Just saying it's not worth getting upset about morons unless they impact the game. Emotions run high when a bunch of beer is involved.

#3728 12 months ago
Quoted from Rdoyle1978:

Haha, you’re probably right!
It’s Seriously less expensive to fly down?! Oh wow

Seriously. Same in Edmonton.

About a dozen coworkers flew down to Anaheim a few years ago for an Oilers playoff game. Flights, hotels, tickets and cab fare cost less than just tickets in Edmonton.
(I think they got a couple hot dogs and beers included with the tickets or promotion they got)

#3731 12 months ago
Quoted from cdnpinbacon:

Damn! Fkn idiots anyone who acts like that acts like and Idiot , throws, etc etc...they should all end up in the penalty box with Tie Domi like that drunk fan..classic video

#3733 12 months ago
Quoted from cdnpinbacon:

Figures a Philly Fan!

Now, now bacon!! Lol

If you win the bracket do you want me to sign the jinx hat?

#3741 12 months ago
Quoted from Pinball-Wiz:

I do recall a leafs fan trying to start a fight with a player in the penalty box.

Was that the yellow sweater douche thumping his chest? Lol what a numpty.

#3742 12 months ago
Quoted from ImNotNorm:

Was that the yellow sweater douche thumping his chest? Lol what a numpty.

This guy?

Quoted from Pinball-Wiz:

I do recall a leafs fan trying to start a fight with a player in the penalty box.. and a "fat lady" starting something with someone in the penalty box in Toronto. I've never seen anything like that anywhere else for a few decades. I could hear the boo's in Toronto during this series during the USA anthem, it was faint, but it was definitely there.
I'm nervous as hell about tonights game. Let's see if the Devils can bring back some of that old magic.
None of the teams that are currently in the running have won the cup in the last 15 years... I like the fact that we have some fresh teams moving forward!

#3743 12 months ago
Quoted from cdnpinbacon:

GO JERSEY!!! Always been a NJ fan ever since Gretzky called NJ franchise Mickey mouse..I didn't like that .

My bracket is toast. So go Jersey!!!

#3746 12 months ago
Quoted from OldHockeyGuy:

I'm wondering if I am the only guy on this thread who has recently sat in a penalty box. After about 40 years of hockey, I got my first boarding call (have had lots of "accidental" tripping calls) in my league called the GeriHatricks. We both were going for the puck, but apparently I lifted my shoulder into him and smooshed him into the glass a bit. Fortunately, my team killed the penalty.
Sitting in a penalty box is kind of like an adult time out.

It's been years!!

Never got a boarding call though. Love the league name, LOL.

#3747 12 months ago

You knew it was coming.

#3748 12 months ago
Quoted from cdnpinbacon:

Damn! Fkn idiots anyone who acts like that acts like and Idiot , throws, etc etc...they should all end up in the penalty box with Tie Domi like that drunk fan..classic video

Not sure if you've ever seen this or not. Tie Domi explains the behind the scenes things that transpired after that penalty box fiasco. Pretty funny!

#3751 12 months ago

Devils!!

#3755 12 months ago

cdnpinbacon & Jackontherocks are leading the Pinside bracket challenge pool after round 1.

Round 1 really busted a bunch of brackets this year.

#3759 12 months ago
Quoted from luch:

can you post the leader board ?

Looks like the bracket challenge is already over for many.

Look at everyone's remaining possible points. Lol

Only a few left in contention.

#3760 12 months ago

Every OT goal from round 1.

Probably the craziest round 1 I've ever seen.

#3767 12 months ago
Quoted from koji:

If only I had picked with my heart that Seattle would advance.. I don't think any of us saw that one.

Not one person picked Seattle or Florida.

That push across save by Samsonov pulled MY groin!

#3774 12 months ago

After watching Knies play. I've come to the conclusion that he's another version of Nylander....but with some grit and toughness.

#3775 12 months ago

Well that's game 1.

#3778 12 months ago

Geezus!!

What a shit show barn burner in Dallas!!

5 goals in 15 mins. 1st period.

I'm not winning this year's bracket challenge....

So I figured I'd get the Oilers jinx hat packaged and ready for shipping for this year's winner.

Quoted from OldHockeyGuy:

Samsonov out with a sudden injury puts a lot of pressure on his rusty backup. Leafs are trying to rally around him.

I like what I've seen with Woll so far this regular season.

And he has an very fitting last name. If he goes on to win it all for the Leafs....it could be a Disney movie script.

#3840 11 months ago

Are the Leafs angling for the most playoff OT wins in the state of Florida?

I sure hope so.

#3842 11 months ago

Oooorrrrr not.

#3857 11 months ago

NYR, LA, or BOS

He wants a cup and wants a big market to play in. (Can't do that in Toronto so go south)

All this talk in the media about him going to the Coyotes makes me laugh.

#3864 11 months ago
Quoted from Canuck_pinhead:

Everyone cross your fingers for the Habs...
Right?

My Leafs friend in the maritimes is hoping Phoenix drafts him so they can trade him for Matthew's & Nylander. Lol

#3866 11 months ago

Chicago wins the Bedard race!

#3869 11 months ago
Quoted from hwyhed:

Of course..an original 6 team that needs a franchise player after Toews n Kane..

Quoted from jaytrem:

I'll settle for that. Was happy it was not Columbus, didn't need them getting him.

Leafs should trade Matthews/Nylander for him.

Throw in Holl as a freebie.

#3872 11 months ago

#3898 11 months ago
Quoted from hwyhed:

I don’t mind the diablos..good young team that can skate. Is there much talk there about somehow, 1 day, getting Quinn Hughes to join his brothers there?

Thoughts on that happening? As a Canucks fan I imagine that would be tough to stomach. Quinn reminds me a bit of Sandis Ozolinch during his years with the Avs.

Quoted from Canuck_pinhead:

Died on the table

In a conflicting twist of irony....I have a coworker who made a bet that Florida would win the series in 5 games.

He will win $8000 CAD if they do. (He bet 1k)

#3926 11 months ago
Quoted from homegameroom:

Dang! That would be a nice payday!
It is about 4/10 of a mile walk from my house to the arena where the Panthers play. I’m pretty lucky- especially since they charge $30 for parking.

Are you a season ticket holder?

If not, what do you pay for tickets? Just curious....

#3927 11 months ago

Goal seems inconclusive. No angle can confirm it went in.

#3930 11 months ago
Quoted from meSz:

Only time you see it in is after the whistle blew and the goalie gets up. If the Ref would advised of this you may not have as much debris being tossed on the ice.

Agreed.

The ref for the Oilers/Knights game last Saturday was doing a great job explaining his calls. I was pleasantly surprised.

Seems like the refs could use a class in publicly explaining how they've come to the conclusion to their calls or reviews.

#3933 11 months ago

Is it time for the NHL to adapt some type of VAR like they have in tennis and world cup soccer? (Where the puck/ball/etc can be tracked even if covered or smothered)

GPS tracked.

I think so.

#3935 11 months ago
Quoted from meSz:

Are you requesting the Glow Puck to e brought back?

Oh hell no! But why not put a GPS in the puck?

GPS the goal line prior to every game after the Zamboni floods.....and big bang boom you're set in the operation room in Toronto.

Then they would know the mathematical threshold required for a goal.

#3936 11 months ago

Yup...looks like this years winner will depend on Dallas or Carolina.

From my calculations, you and hwyhed are the only two left in the bracket challenge who can win.

Mogilny should be in already. The first player to defect from Russia to play in the NHL. Set a precedent and paved the way for future Russian players.

Add his stats and performance to the mix, and it's a no brainer.

#4265 10 months ago
Quoted from HoakyPoaky:

As a longtime Sabres fan, it is particularly frustrating to see him get snubbed repeatedly.
I think his history with the press is a more likely explanation though. He was notorious for being reclusive during his career & and the HOF probably feels he would not come to Toronto to participate in the induction.
[quoted image]

And on the opposite end of the spectrum you have Jeremy Roenick. Who also deserves a place in the HOF in my opinion. But....like Mogilny, probably won't be inducted for political/personality reasons.

I think the whole thing is overblown media scrutiny and this comes from someone who isn't a Babcock fan at all. I don't think Babcock was trying to power trip them by asking to see pictures, more just trying to make a personal connection.

I call bullshit. Players can send him the photos he requested by email or USB. They don't need to hand over their phone and have Babcock run through the entire thing.

This is nothing more than a power trip and dominance asserting move on his part. And we've all seen it before from this clown.
