I don’t see how you can watch a team score 4 goals via special teams and say that the game wasn’t decided by special teams.

We’ll agree to disagree.

You have to draw the penalties to get on the PP, correct?

Can you maybe think of a reason why Edmonton got PP after PP the first half of that game?

Was it maybe because they were just completely running over Vegas?

You aren’t just guaranteed power plays

Or you could be like Toronto and go 1/7 on the PP and be in a 0/2 series hole.

What good is drawing the penalty if you don’t franking score on it.

See this is the problem I have with constantly talking about the Power play

Just because a team is say a 30% power play, doesn’t mean they are going to score literally 3 of every 10 power plays they have

They’re going to go 1/7 during a stretch, then they will go 3/4 the next game. Then 0/2 the next, then 2/3 the next so on and so forth.

It becomes a really disingenuous conversation

Member the other day when you hurled all kinds of nasty comments at me and made wild accusation that had no merit, then when others jumped to tell you it was uncalled for..
You told them to F off as it wasn't any of their business ...

Is it "Rules for thee, not for me" that is your defacto Mantra, lol.
Just cause you can't watch Don Lemon anymore, don't take it out on us.
But then again, you and your ultra left socialist cults are all the same.

Yes , I remember well. Not proud of what I said, wish I could take it back.

I'm not pretending around these parts like so cal.

He is the biggest hypocrite on this board.

Guys clearly smarter then you and me, he let's everyone know with his fancy words, correct conjecture and spelling.

Guy also piles on, something i do not respect.
Pure bully mantra.

Hope you have a great sunday uncle ionlightning ☝️

The game was decided by McDavid being McDavid and Draisaitl continuing a historic pace of goal scoring.

I honestly don’t know how you could watch Edmonton legitimately slaughter them from the moment the puck dropped and think it was decided by anything other than those two

- sbroads24


Somebody should probably mention :

SABRES DRAFTED SAM REINFART OVER LEON DRAISAITL

"German wayne Gretzky "

The single biggest reason the Sabres have been hopeless the past 8 years.

Huge whiff....

So it goes both ways, one game your PP may be on fire and your PK sucks or Vice Versa. Sometimes neither are working but your 5vs5 game is rolling or your goalie is on 🔥 and keeping you in the game until something happens. Sometimes skill wins a game for you and sometimes Heart and grit do. Hockey is about Adapting and sometimes doing things not in you Character!!

The Sabres whiffed on that then lost the McDavid sweepstakes.

Losing McDavid is worse than drafting Skunk.

Both elongated hopelessness, it started before and continues after them.

So, at this point how would you configure it, bottom 6?

Krebs mitts savoie
Greenway Jost rousek

Krebs deserves a promotion from the 4th line

That is why Okposo can be a players coach like anderson next year. Okay 1 game a week or 2 depending on how many games we have (I’m thinking out of 4 games in a week at times)

I'm definitely down with that, need to get there 1st though.
I hope Peca is teaching him the artistry of winning FO's.

Bjugstad, Haula, Ellers (but older than I would want) fit the bill.
Go get 1 for 2 years.

Martinez is old but still playing pretty well, he's a LD though
Don't really want Dumba, would take the other 3
Tried trading LA's 3rd for Borgen the other day. Seems they like him there.

That 3rd line will be leaving in body bags after game 1 of the playoffs if they ever make it.

The Hawks fan below should stop day drinking, IMHO of course 😆😂

>>> Murphy alone should be worth Rosen and the jump from 20th to 13th, IMHO

Lot of work, but line 1: resign Okposo + Girgs and then scratch them?

I was basically talking about the Chicago trade, not a bad trade if Rosen is switched out. Of course that also depends on what happens tomorrow

Murphy made some sense last year. It didn't happen. Seems less likely now.

Keep in mind, odds are higher that they move down tomorrow than move up.

Very true about tomorrow. What has changed on Murphy, he's basically a Samuelsson clone that plays RD
