Brock Boeser on 15 games to go and starting to view things through a playoff lens: “For sure. I think we’re at that point. Colorado is a team that knows how to play in the playoffs and we can’t make mistakes like those. I mean, I haven’t played technically in the playoffs, but there are guys in our room that talk about it and the details. And you’ve got to be invested in winning those puck battles.”

NHL players don't consider the play-in thingy as playoffs, yet many super slurpers in here constantly refer to how great they were in the playoffs.
Can't make this shit up.

Also, that quote came from an article at Canucks Army, who have gotten a bit better over the years, as they are starting to have more balanced writings, sometimes.

So Petey isn't going to be a back to back 100 point player but Lindholm is going to be a 50 plus guy who's on pace for 45?

I have no problem with Lindholm coming back but he's a 6M per year center max on his next contract IMO. His career 82 per game avg is 55 points a season. If they do bring him back, team would have to rid themselves of Mikky and Garland then.

He always lands in his feet.

What team needs a new assistant to the regional manager?

Ottawa might be due.

He may have meant Lindholm. Has older Elias been given the nickname Lindy?

Actually Lindy might be done now. I'm loving the injection of new coaches to the carousel.

Bannister, Carberry, Cronin, Huska, Knoblauch.

13 people coached in the NHL this year with under 200 games experience.

I believe Tocchet is one of the oldest as well behind only maybe Torts.

Abbotsford trades Quinn Schiemann

to the

Syracuse Crunch for Future considerations

because of the addition of D-Petey

If you don't have a couple thousand fat drunk witnesses there to scream at the refs it definitely never happened

Sounds like some of the players agree with you.

lol champs don't wanna recognize the fact that Benning and Green got us within 60 mins of the conference finals. For some reason not having fans in the stands makes it all irrelevant...

Well to be fair, most NHLers didn't even finish high school, they're not the brightest bunch.

You mean to tell me, none of you idiots have a basic four year bachelor's degree? Anyone? Surely NYN does.
