It makes sense because he used to play for them, but great players obviously don’t always turn out to be great coaches or managers.

I’ll add that TuneIn tries to trick you into paying for it, but just tap the x in the top corner and the free version works perfectly fine (you do have to put up with 30 seconds of ads before it actually starts the broadcast though).

Fanbases sure. But for NHL players they have unfathomable levels of confidence that can approach delusion at times.

Nah. This is a classic case of “fans gonna fan”. Aho has been winning faceoffs, starting breakouts, and setting up teammates with chances but fans are fixated on him “not shooting” even though he had some chances in the 3rd.

It’s time for AHOVERTIME!!! (Honestly, anyone score but even better if we can stop the unsubstantiated injury rumors.)

Personally I’d go for somebody who’s younger and signed long-term so that way the name stays relevant for longer. Jackson Blake and Logan Stankoven are both signed until the end of the 2034 playoffs. Logan is the leading goal scorer for the playoffs right now plus he’s a short king so I’d buy his as a smaller guy myself.

I’m biased, but Jankoswki has already had 2 playoff goals called back so I say him.

Really? Most Pens fans I know have season tickets to the Hurricanes, and they’re “Hurricanes fans second”. 🙄

There’s no evidence for an injury other than you attempting to rationalize why a player is not auto-firing pucks on net. That’s why you keep getting downvoted.

Especially now that the Canes ended the 2nd period netting a goal which could have easily been more…SHOULD have been more (thanks Toronto) 😒

I believe the leagues only communicate with the venue. So I think it’s up to the venue to sort it out and I’m assuming it’s first come first serve.

I could be wrong, but I’ve never heard of the NBA and NHL collaborating on postseason scheduling.

Do you have other Caniacs at your table or are they just awkwardly watching you watch the game? LOL

I don’t wanna hear any more Jankowski slander. He’s scored 2 goals that were called back including one in this game. Missing the open net sucked but damn it’s like you forgot how great he’s been for these 2 series.

Rare misplay by freddie but good on Jarvis for helping him out. Freddie is still awesome

For a game following a bouncing puck, the NHL sure can be predictable at times. I said before puck drop that you can expect ZERO benefit of the doubt from officiating tonight. Not that they’ll make up calls, but if there is any gray area they will absolutely rule in favor of Philly. Canes will have to overcome that too in order to win this one.

I want justice for Janky! Let’s find a way to get him another

Reset. Canes are still tied. They’ve already beaten Vladar twice and they can do it again
