That was boneheaded. Blues played on the edge in 2019 but that was a pointless blatant dirty hit.

That guy should change his name to Scott Stevens and people will change their tune over thie hit.Dave's a mess wrote: Thu Jun 03, 2021 8:35 am
Honestly that seems fine. Nasty hit, but Schiefele has a clean track record, and games in the second round of the playoffs are worth a lot more than regular season games. I don't know what the right number is. It was a clear charge that caused injury, but can't you make an argument that this was a hockey play as he's trying to prevent a goal? On the other hand I feel like the more effective hockey play would've been to go for the puck with a stick check. Regardless this is a bad development for the Jets. Schiefele is obviously a huge player for them, and if/when he gets back in this series, you'd figure he might be looking over his shoulder.

He won a Cup with Caps, remember? But yeah, damn good coach. Great coach. Took a long time for him to get the respect he deserves.Dread_Pirate_Westley wrote: Sun Jun 06, 2021 9:38 am Barry Trotz is just a damn good coach. It's a shame his teams have never gotten over the hump in the playoffs because he's one of the best bench bosses around.
Good lord you're right, I forgot he was the coach of that team. The Islanders are the most no-name team every year that continues to threaten for a cup.BillP. wrote: Sun Jun 06, 2021 9:58 amHe won a Cup with Caps, remember? But yeah, damn good coach. Great coach.

In your defense after winning that Cup the Caps immediately got rid of him in a move that totally backfired.Dread_Pirate_Westley wrote: Sun Jun 06, 2021 10:00 amGood lord you're right, I forgot he was the coach of that team.

That whole division is pretty terrible. Montreal will likely get wrecked by Colorado or Vegas but Price is a huge difference maker. Playing the best of his career right now IMO.Dave's a mess wrote: Sun Jun 06, 2021 7:26 pm Habs about to go up 3-0 on Winnipeg. The Canadian division continues to make very little sense.
If the Jets are that bad, then what does that say about Edmonton?Dave's a mess wrote: Mon Jun 07, 2021 10:41 pm Habs complete sweep of Jets. Jets need an overhaul. Their D sucks and their forward group ain't what it used to be.
We'll find out when they run into either Vegas or Colorado. I wasn't impressed by most of the Canadian teams this season. Either way, the Blues move up a spot in the draft.
The Price is right? Can't believe an announcer never ran with that.............................................Crosby the shot aaaaannnnnnddddd the Price is right.......................gold Jerry gold
