Devils have an easy early schedule, so I look forward to them dominating in every advanced metric but losing because of crappy goaltending. Fire Ruff.

I caught a bunch of the game yesterday and I feel like I might actually get invested this year.

It's a fun team that still has WAY too many breakdowns on the backcheck and in their zone given the roster. Bahl needs a bigger opportunity and if it comes at the expense of guys like Smith, so be it. Offensively Bratt has been the absolute man, Jack's creating a lot of chances and Nico's been tentative coming off the groin injury, but still is playing a solid two way game. Tatar stinks. Palat's been very good, but I still hate the length of that deal, and now he's hurt.
Lindy gotta go. This team should be competing for a 7-8 seed, and it seems like the inevitable is just being delayed in terms of Brunette's ascension to the job.
They gave up 6 goals to the Caps on Monday and I'd think it'd be fair to put responsibility on Blackwood for about two of them. But that won't stop a vocal portion of the fanbase.

1st place in the Central. What a difference firing Maurice/Lowry into the sun has made.
We literally did nothing to our roster, just some minor tweaks. Our coaching change was our biggest move. And it's been night and day from last season.
Coaching matters.

Give him until Christmas and he'll be calling for his head.

I still am, because he's only a shade better than Maurice. But then i calmed down because he's not here long term, and his systems are clearly better than what they were using for the last 3 seasons
Also...having a vezina calibre goaltender helps mask alot of deficiencies.

'Murcia...love it or leave it. Nice mindset. Embracing all equality standards and full equal rights is not enough? You now must wear someone's 'flag'? Btw, no Russians = watered down nhl. Lastly, it involved "the warmups" and hockey warmups are the least impactful or interesting of the major sports as it pertains to viewer interest, i.e. no batting practice (HRs) as in baseball, no shooting/dunks as in basketball, no specialists/QBs 'airing it out' as in football. In fact, with 25 skaters circling around who'd notice "only 24"? This is a big who gives a excrement that only the media ran with. "You have the right to your opinion" meets "or else!"

I feel like you're taking my using any excuse available to call Ovie a queynte a bit too seriously. How about "kick all Russians except Artem Zub out of the league", does that make it better? I'll even settle for just sending Ovie and Malkin back. The rest can stay although Provorov's on thin ice.

Apparently I did (re: Ovie) whom I have no love for either - creep's a chippy queynte so mea culpa on that count. That said I disagree as to why Provorov should be on thin ice. The guy did NOT deny anybody their civil rights nor pejoratively denigrate any persons and/or group. He simply cited 'religious' reasons (I also understand just the word 'religion' alone is a #trigger to some-lol). My comments were strictly freedom of speech/expression driven, period.
A guy, a gal, a them/they want to flash their package in a display of pride, great. And at the same time people have the right to say "hey, nice dick!...but no thanks."
So Provorov stayed in the locker room? ...and?......anyway, reminds me of this old one:
Q: What's the one thing you prolly don't want to hear in a locker room?
A: niiice dick!
-
No one's asking him to suck a dick, just to show solidarity with and support for those who are oppressed for doing so. He can freak off citing Christianity as a reason not to, my Dad is an Anglican priest and he would have some words for Provorov about Jesus's teachings on tolerance, acceptance and persecution.
I can only imagine the whining from the people currently cheering for Provorov if a Muslim player took a similar stance.

I'm sorry JE but I find that unreasonable in that you want it both ways. You deny him his right to choose while invalidating his value system in the same breath. As for your Anglican priest father's sense of tolerance, I would also think that dear ol' dad would acknowledge that 'tolerance' is a give and take, two-way street. Me, I'd have donned a "Gay Is OK!" jersey for the pre-game skate and maybe even gussied-up my CCM Super Tacks in rainbow hues but that's not the point. The point is that while I disagree with Provorov's tact I also accept the notion of to each his own.
As for the Muslim assumption (in all its prickly, self-serving cynicism *wink*), I don't have to remind you as to where homosexuality's harshly punishable and in some 'certain circles' unconscionably, by death...imagine. Agree to disagree. We're on the same page for the most part. I'm simply more tolerant you closet totalitarian-lol.
As I type this, the Eagles have jumped out to a 28-0 halftime lead en route to hopefully a one-sided rout. To that end all praise to Allah.

Jesus didn't teach us to love all men equally as long as they conformed to a particular set of rules that he didn't actually lay down about who you can screw. I'm not a religious man but for obvious reasons I have more than a passing familiarity with Christian doctrine and a good degree of positive feeling towards much of it, and using Christianity to justify excrement that flies directly in the face of its core tenets is not something that any actual Christian should have any time for.
Tolerance does not translate to "hey, if people want to persecute others for excrement that isn't any of my business I'm happy to tolerate it". Jesus was not a passive man and would waste no time in throwing these modern day Pharisees the freak out of his church, literally and metaphorically. Don't make me start quoting scripture.

Please go back to hockey talk in here...thanks

Taylor Hall is a former Hart trophy winner that hadn't scored for his team in a month, and the Bruins are still 38-5-4.
That is absolutely insane.

Sorry MB and you're right....but I just saw this and....promise, last post them I'm out. On the Canadian bight side, the NYR lost to the Leafs last night

Impressive (re: the in bold). What's next, you're on a first name basis with God? : )
And as far as "persecution" goes, in Provoro's mind I'm thinking he does not equate skipping a warmup in 'mandated garb' as endorsing persecution per se but more "not my cup of tea, mind if I choose to sit this one out?" As for quoting scriptures, seems the Old Testament's references to marriage are boy/girl 'hetero' and that's what Provorov's hanging his hat on. As a former alterboy who's surreptitiously scarfed down many an early morning cruet of unconsecrated wine and unleavened wafers in the sacristy (and can still recite The Confiteor in Latin), I too am well versed in the scriptures...not really but whatever:
'in vino veritas'
'suum cuique"
Again, I'm not fraternal with Provorov's worldview nor would I have adopted his sitting out tact but while he could be labeled a pharisaical hypocrite, he on the other hand could possibly view directed brow-beating as undue sanctimony. For now, Father forgive them for they know not what they do..

Pretty sure no Canadian here considers that to be a positive.

God, if he exists, has no interest in what I have to say to him. My point was that as my previous post said, my Dad is a priest. It was never rammed down my throat which is probably why I feel fairly benign towards the faith, but scripture was a regular enough part of both home and school life that I can fairly comfortably argue against some of Christanity's less appropriately adjusted modern claimants and use their own tools against them.
the Old Testament's references to marriage are boy/girl 'hetero' and that's what Provorov's hanging his hat on
Well, yeah, but that's one of the easiest ones of all to poke holes in. Because while Bible scholars will try and twist themselves around this, the fact is that the Holy Trinity and specifically Jesus Christ as Saviour is entirely a function of the New Testament, and if you're going to call yourself a Christian and devote yourself to Christ then it is perverse to ignore his teachings which by definition only appear in the New Testament, and instead use contradictory writings of man from the OT to justify behaviour that Jesus Christ explicitly told you not to do.
So if that's what Provorov's going with, I refer to my previous point that he can freak off. He clearly doesn't understand the first thing about the teachings of Jesus, who was very much a righteous dude who would very much have wanted his devotees to stand up for the persecuted. Tim Tebow knew, even if he forgot add the next verse:
For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him.
Provorov apparently doesn't believe John because he thinks that condemnation is OK, or at least that it's not his job to do anything about it. Dude needs to go do a bit more Bible study, this excrement is pretty much Sunday school 101.

Thought the Isles package for Horvat was fairly reasonable. They absolutely have to resign him though.

I honestly don't know enough about the players they gave up, it seems Raty is a good prospect but has some way to go while Beauvillier is probably a bottom 6 player. If the Isles make the playoffs and re-sign Horvat it's an excellent piece of business, if they make the playoffs but he doesn't re-sign then the value will be determined by how deep they go, if they miss the playoffs and re-sign Horvat it probably isn't terrible but it will look expensive, and if they miss the playoffs and he still walks then it was a disaster. Like most rentals we can probably only assess the success of the trade after the season is done.

I can't get over how big NHL goalies have become. It's only a decade or so ago that Ben Bishop was considered a freak, but if you look at the top goalies they're pretty much all huge - Vasileskiy (6'3"), Hellebuyck (6'4"), Oettinger (6'5"), Ullmark (6'4"), the list goes on. Only Saros (5'11") and Shesterkin (6'1") amongst the top guys are really what we'd consider the traditional size for goalies.
I was at the Sens game on Monday night and they gave a debut to a young guy called Mads Sogaard who is 6'7", it was almost comical watching a guy who's probably close to 6'10" in skates minding a net that looked like it barely came to his waist. Then last night we had another young debutant (we have an injury crisis) in Kevin Mandolese, he's comparatively little at just 6'4".
It feels like there will come a point where chasing monsters will be detrimental and we'll start looking for the smaller, more agile guys again.

Like hell you do ya young punk. The Bruins have a losing record this season vs. Ottawa yet at the same time the Bruins are flirting with the NHL all-time wins & points record. The Sens ‘present’ dominance over the Bruins is an outlier, punk.
Presently, the Winnipeg Jets are an absolute mess.
Presently, they’ve lost of five of their last six; the team is in shambles.
On February 16 Winnipeg was one victory behind the Dallas Stars for first place in the Western Conference. Fast forward to the present: the Winnipeg Jets have completely fallen out of the Central’s top three and and are presently battling for a place in the Wild Card.
Presently? Just last night on home ice the Winnipeg Jets blew a 3rd period 5-3 lead and lost 6-5 to the LA Kings. Kings old timer Anze Kopitar repeatedly abused Veniza pretender Connor Hellebuyck to the tune of 4 goals all by his lonesome. Just the other night the Rangers held a third period 5-2 lead over those same LA Kings. Final score: 5-2.
Just last night Bruins goalie Linus Ullmark faced FIFTY SEVEN shots on goal and still won.
Still think Winnipeg’s Hellebuyck should win the Vezina and that “it shouldn’t even be close” punk?

Timothy Eaton was a guy who founded a department store chain in Canada. The Eaton department store chain is no more having filed for bankruptcy decades ago. In the Canada Life Centre in Winnipeg there is a statue dedicated to this department store owner. For years and years it was a tradition to rub the foot of the statue for luck.

Their fans may not be able to spell out the J-E-T-S chant but hockey players being hockey players, Winnipeg’s Morgan Barron catches the Vegas goalie’s skate blade across his face (narrowly missing his eye) to the tune of over 75+ stitches and later returns to the game. Jets upset Vegas 5-1.

Pending trade call the Jets and Kings complete a marathon trade. Pierre-Luc Dubois to LA. Iafallo, Vilardi, Kupari and a 2nd in 2024 (orig Mtl’s pick) to Winnipeg for PLD. As @reporterchris reported, extension for PLD in LA is 8 years, $8.5 aav.
