me too

Boston just won a game in overtime under 2 secs that they should have lost, great overtime action back and forth, only 20 shots on goal but almost ended the 3rd period with maybe 12 shots to my memory

Ully with 54 last night. Unbelievable performance. That dude is special this year. .938 and 1.88. Ridiculous numbers. Vezina no question.
Maybe they lock up the Jennings as well.
It's the Bruins SC to lose at this point.
East is heavy and shame that good teams aren't gonna be around after the 1st round.
Hot Take: The initial rounds of the playoffs will be better than the SCF itself.

I'm starting to think this McDavid fella is a pretty good hockey player.

He’s pretty dynamic..I enjoy his highlights, even if he plays with a team that gives me bad memories for 40+ years

Filip Hronek goes to Nucks, Stevie Y gets draft capital. With Steve Yzerman’s drafting skills, I’ll take it. I think fans here generally want the Wings to be buyers to help make playoffs this year, but I prefer long-term success over spending too much just for this year.

Do you like this trade, hwyhed ?

When I 1st heard of the trade, I’m like wtf is this management doing. But realizing that the scouts/management have drafted poorly over the years. Sure, they got lucky w Hughes n Pettersson falling in their laps. I remember them drafting Jake Virtanen 6th overall, and Oullevi (both busts) in 1st rounds. I don’t mind it, as it gives Van a true top 4 d man that they desperately need now. Seems to me the club would like to ‘retool’ instead of rebuild. Fans will go to the games regardless, and buy jerseys n overpriced beers. I dunno, it is what it is.

I'm convinced GMRH is working for the Flyers organization, still.
WTF just happened!

Ron Hextall?

Translation ..... GMRH translates to General Manager Ron Hextall

To this point he's done nothing. After all the bad publicity he's now getting it's almost like he's trying to do damage control.

The 5 mill a year for 2 years for a 31 year old doesn't bother me as much as the fact they need a strong Defenseman and not another Offensive player.

You waived Kappy, traded away Blueger and in return you get a guy at the end of his career. Good choice in making a slow team even slower.

Agree, my point was more in picking up an older and slower player. The Penguins don't have a lot of speed on the team and Kappy and Blueger were two of the faster skaters. Now I can only think of Rust.

This 100%.
Except the 5 mil a year really bothers me as well. This move made zero sense and now we can't get another decent defenseman, which we desperately need.
g** f****** d*****!!!!

Agree! Only hope is now they just flame out in 1st or 2nd round!

I thought there was a good chance the Wings would trade him. Just signed an 8-year deal to keep Dylan Larkin, and I don’t think Stevie Y wanted to commit another big amount of money to keep Tyler Bertuzzi, so he got something for him while he could, and Bruins get a rental.

That's A LOT of leaf fans in Calgary tonight.

So proof that Hextall needs fired is the fact he traded for Bonino!

I am! ESPN+ carries the TSN feed here in the States.

I’m dedicated n listening to my local hacks..hoping that my local team does something of significance

Besides Quinn Hughes, the d sucks. Oliver ekman Larson, Tyler Myers are huge underachievers. To keep Petey n Hughes on the team long term, they can’t afford to rebuild. Getting a top 2-4 d men sends the right message to them.

Well, that post from 6 days ago didn’t age well. Wings also send Jakub Vrana to Blues for 2025 7th-round draft pick and a 27-year-old career minor-leaguer. Vrana didn’t play much this season (went to players assistance program for two months) and this trade comes after only three games back with Red Wings. He also cleared waivers this season, so I guess Stevie Y did well to get something for him.

His skating is a lil slower, but his positioning/anticipation of things makes him the biggest fn pylon since Dana Muryzn!

I read this on the way home from the rink a few hours ago and chuckled cause I thought you were joking around. WHAT THE ABSOLUTE F***?!?!?!?!?!?
This isn't real life. I'm in a simulation.

Sorry to see Oskar Sundqvist get traded, good role player. But Wings got a bunch of draft capital in return for all these trades, and Stevie Y knows how to draft. I don’t see the playoffs this year, however.

No, Pens can repeat their history and eventually sell him the team to pay him.

LOL you're not alone. My brother actually text me early morning and when I got the text I had to actually Google it cuz I thought he was jagging me!

Yeah they missed that opportunity a few years ago when they should've traded Malkin.

Lucky for me, soon after posting that my wife took me out for brunch and didn't get home till 11PM. In short, no hours wasted!

Watching ABC earlier today for the NYR/BOS + COL/DAL games and they had those stupid video game type nametags over the player in possession of the puck during PP's.

And as a player would pass it, the name tag would then appear over the new player with the puck. And this would go on and keep changing during the powerplay....very distracting and annoying.

Thankfully they don't have this on TSN or SN here in Canada.

Put the TOR/VAN game thats on SN.... and the very first PP they have these same stupid nametags appearing over the players.

So annoying and distracting. Worse than a video game.

Always nice to beat the leafs on HNIC..nux were outshot again, but it’s nice to have a healthy Demko between the pipes
