Master Mind Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 14 minutes ago, Coconuts said: That's a tough blow for a Philly team that looks like they could be a dark horse out East They're fortunate Ersson has been playing well, gotta wonder who backs him up though Looks like Cal Petersen. Could be coincidence, but have to wonder with both Hart and Dube taking leaves of absence, if this has anything to do with 2018. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hard to say, I'm not holding my breath as far as that investigation goes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elias Pettersson Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 Ryan Reaves apparently is ready to go. Leafs fans on the other hand have a different idea. It's called waivers... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wai_lai416 Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 3 hours ago, Coconuts said: It's a big gap but they've played five fewer games than us and Vegas Van 68 in 47 Vegas 60 in 47 Edmonton 53 in 42 Short of us going on a losing streak there's not much to worry about, but they could absolutely catch Vegas while Eichel is out All three teams look to have similarly challenging schedules over the second half, Edmonton might have a slightly easier list of opponents but not by much The real question mark is whether LA can rebound, their roster should be performing better than it has been, even their loss last night was more about Kahkonen standing on his head than anything Saved 44/47, San Jose has 20 fewer shots Gotta wonder whether LA looks to bolster it's tending at some point that depends on how ou look at it.. we have the 3rd hardest schedule remaining in the league by point%. oilers have the 20th. 17 of the final 35 is against the top teams colorado dallas vegas la edmonton carolina winnipeg boston.. if we look a little further 30 of the 35 games are against teams that are in a playoff spot or still have a shot at playoff. edmonton only have 29 games vs teams that are still in the hunt or in a playoff spot even though they still have 40 games to go and only 14 of those against the top tier teams i've listed earlier.. based on the schedule alone.. it's not that hard to think edmonton won't be able to make up 6 points.. it all depends on how we do in the next month.. the schedule all of a sudden gets really tough.. are the canucks still going to be able to maintain their insane shooting %. if i'm a betting man i would say no because we are shooting at well above the league high in the last like 10+ years there's like couple season of 12% ish.. majority is 11.5 and below we are at like 13.5% or something.. we are bound to have a regression at some point it's just a matter of when and how much.. and hopefully it's against the weaker teams and not the strong teams so we can still win with low shooting % 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevlar Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 Ethan Bear scratched in Washington. His corsi and other advanced stats have not been good. I feel that we dodged a bullet but don't want to be hard on him since he is coming back from surgery. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kragar Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 Blues, Calgary... please hockey gods, have the Flames go up 5-0, chase Binky out of the game, and then have the Blues win 6-5 after a nice hard fought game. Is that too greedy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kragar Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 (edited) Anyone else out there that thinks that Patrick Roy looks like (Ferris Bueller's best bud) Cameron Frye's dimwitted brother? And just cuz I like him so much (not!), let's have a classic Roy moment Edited January 24 by Kragar 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When management decides to dump his ass and show him the door, they better make sure he doesn't take it with him 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tecumseh Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 I really hope Vegas and Oilers can beat up each other in the first round. Then we come in and finish either one of them in the second round. Best case scenario for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crazy how those 3Ws we had against EDM earlier this season are becoming crucial now. Had EDM won those 3 games, they'd have 61points in 43 games VS our 62 points in 47 games. What a swing! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
