Hockey,

[yellowperil]

When he was with the Ducks was a spot on player, seemed to have no trouble scoring goals, struggling now. I wish him luck, hope he gets back to his old ways.

Go Corey!!

[yellowperil]

Sorry, I never get that right !!

[yellowperil]

Good game, I have a question: Why were Bruins in dark sweaters in NYI arena?
Always thought dark sweaters were for home ice.

[billybek]

It was at one time the other way around.
Kind of like the bad bandits always wore black hats in the cowboy movies.

I have noticed the occasional switch lately too.
Perhaps in an effort to sell more jerseys?

[Por_sha911]

Teams will switch jerseys at a home game to promote sales. Usually it is the 3rd jersey or a special edition (like the Winter Classic) but the last Bruins/Isles game the Isles were just wearing their away jersey. The visitors are told in advance so they can come prepared to play with the appropriate jersey. The Preds played the Winter Classic in Dallas so they played in that jersey (white) at home at least once or twice this year.

[yellowperil]

This Draisaitl dude with the Oilers is sure a goal scoring machine, and all low key/low maintenance too.

He and McDavid are quite the pair.

[badcar]

Listened to that game last night...Pekka Rinne was shattered and left in waaaayyy tooo long.


In other news...Avalanche win their seventh straight!

[Hawkeye's-911T]

Looks as though the 'Earlers' are preparing to make some noise in an otherwise mediocre Pacific Division.
Mike Smith will have to be "All Universe" for the rest of the way for them to go on a deep run - 'gonna git interestin'

Cheers

If you are near the TV, watch the Bruins/Tampa game. Third period will start soon. It is like early Christmas with playoff intensity.

Lol.

If it is Letterkenny it isn't safe for work.....

Those Flamers pulled one out last night that they should have never won.
They were so sloppy in the first and second that I gave up on them. Was painful to watch.

Was pleasantly surprised when I finished watching Netflix that they had pulled off an O/T victory.

[Hawkeye's-911T]

Might (& hopefully) be a bellwether game for the squad. My Canuckleheads ain't fairing all that well lately.
Any team (preferably Canadian) that lays a beatdown on the Earlers is my favourite team.

Cheers
JB

They win a lot of games that way! Go flames. (I must be the only guy who cheers for both Alberta teams.) Except for Kassian of the Oilers, I,m surprised Looch hasn,t laid a beating on him yet. (Perhaps Looch is a bit pass his fighting prime.) Hope not.

Yeah, lesson learned but next time, a little warning please.

I think he's backing off because the rap sheet is getting long and the suspensions get worse with repeat offenders. Even though fighting is normally just 5 in the sin bin, if he gets worked up, he's done some dumb things.

Yeah, you're right on that, he tends to lose it a bit

Oh Canucky puhleeze! Wanna trade for my Devils?

[Hawkeye's-911T]

Jeez Flat - at least you got 3 Cup banners hanging from the rafters - we've been
waiting 50 yrs. - although last night's showing was an entertaining game, so
hope springs eternal.

Both teams were missing some of their better/best players. The Lanche's
Nathan MacKinnon sure is fun to watch & is arguably one of the top 5
forwards in the game today.

Your boys have 10 picks in the upcoming draft, considered by some to be deep.
So Good Luck & keep the faith.

Cheers
JB
