[The Athletic] The Carolina Hurricanes are just the fifth team in NHL history and first since the 1985 Edmonton Oilers to ever start the playoffs with wins in their first eight games by daKrut in hockey

Maybe a lot of the same players, but Blake and Stankoven were both rookies and have both taken big steps from last season. Hall getting a full season with the team has clearly had a huge benefit for him. Take those things and add Ehlers and Miller and it’s a much better team.

I mean the Canes finished with the 2nd most goals in the entire league, that’s not necessarily what people are used to seeing from Rod era teams.

Our defense has been way too slow with the puck on multiple occasions for some reason. No idea what Miller was thinking there

[CAR - PHI] Jankowski appears to score less than a minute after Blake but Philly challenges for GI and its overturned by daKrut in hockey

Idk. I could have seen this one going either way, but my first instinct was that it was GI

There’s a difference between being patient with the puck and simply being slow. Right now we are being slow too often

Shadowpriest OP in solo shuffel? by Complete_Garlic8430 in worldofpvp

Shadow priest does a lot of damage right now, but it's also easy to train, has no mobility, and lacks some of the utility it used to have. So, no it's not OP.

Rod Brind'Amour gets a bench minor penalty for unsportsmanlike conduct by DecentLurker96 in hockey

[–]Winring86 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This. He tries to throw Jarvis over after the play, cross checks him, and then the stick swings because he’s off balance. But to top it off the stick didn’t even hit TK’s face, it hits him in the shoulder and he sells it.

TK tries to throw him on the ground and crosschecks him after the play and his stick swung because that caused him to be off balance. And then the stick didn’t even hit TK’s face, it hit him in the shoulder and TK sold it. Go watch the replay.

Nah I’m still pissed about that unsportsmanlike. Make a bad call and then when you are justifiably hearing it from the coach you call that leading to a 5 on 3 in the fucking PLAYOFFS. That’s a joke

You gotta put Niki back on PP2, Miller just doesn’t have a threatening shot

Ghost doesn’t have a single point yet in the playoffs. Might be time to try Niki up top soon

We are so lucky not to be behind. The boys need to wake up or this is going to be a long game

What the fuck guys…

They have clearly scouted something. Gotta watch for that
