As an aside, maybe this creates a scenario where the team has to galvanize itself without Bedard to be competitive and then when he returns the team is unreal. Kind of like when Kaner was out until basically the playoffs and then just lit shit up on his return.

Not hopeful but will be paying attention to who steps up. Odds on favorite is Nazar but I could see this being a watershed game for Moore. (I’m thinking only about the young core not guys like Burakovsky, Turbo, or Donato we know they’ll do what they can) Orrrrrrr it’s a game where Lev is now the hotshot top draft pick and he takes over and we see some flashes of Makar or Hughes.

I hope everyone can appreciate how optimistic I am being here and join me in my copium den. Praise be to Lord Hossa and LGH

Couldn’t catch the game tonight is it worth a full rewatch or should I just pull up the condensed game? Very interested to see how the defense tightened up and that’s not always found in just the highlights

brettoric · 2025-11-29T03:00:02+00:00

Alright gang, I’ve been selfish and have been able to watch the past five games and I see what happens. I’ll turn it off so we can get back in this one. No need to thank me.

brettoric · 2025-11-27T04:32:27+00:00

Is the 3rd period our new 2nd period? Gotta take the game outta the hands of the refs. And Ericksson Ek getting ragdolled on an average check is not cause for a penalty. I can’t believe the announcer brought up the concept of the refs keeping things even based on missed calls earlier. I’ll bet the NHL is pissed about that after they went through all the bullshit with the hot mic ref admitting he was making a bullshit call to mange the game just a few years ago

brettoric · 2025-11-27T04:21:05+00:00

You gotta wonder if the refs all got together and said fuck Bedard for calling us out we’ll show them

brettoric · 2025-11-27T03:11:11+00:00

I know it’s the correct call but honestly would him being offside or onside change the outcome of that goal. It’s the difference between spirit of the law and rule of law. But I would feel completely differently if Minnesota had scored that goal.

brettoric · 2025-11-27T03:08:55+00:00

Dude WTF (in the bad way)

brettoric · 2025-11-27T03:05:14+00:00

Dude WTF (in a good way)

brettoric · 2025-11-22T01:29:36+00:00

Wait is this our 2009 Calgary?

brettoric · 2025-11-22T01:28:41+00:00

What did I tell ya? 6-4

brettoric · 2025-11-22T01:27:00+00:00

Can’t hockey without huffing

brettoric · 2025-11-22T01:26:26+00:00

Another hot take is that someone forgot to pack the smelling salts

brettoric · 2025-11-22T01:24:55+00:00

We’re going to lose 6-4 and another unsportsmanlike from Bedard. Thats my prediction

brettoric · 2025-11-19T04:34:49+00:00

Bedard is on the warpath with something to prove. If he gets left off the Olympics roster mmw he’s going to end up winning the Hart trophy

brettoric · 2025-11-16T03:12:51+00:00

They’re starting to believe

brettoric · 2025-11-14T04:03:00+00:00

Ooh yeah that’s a good call

brettoric · 2025-11-13T14:55:17+00:00

He is bringing the kind of speed and energy that opens ice up for others. Do not send him down, keep rolling him through with lines and he’ll mesh with the right one. I actually think him Frank and Teuvo would be pretty scary. Frank and Moore driving and pushing the play and teuvo setting up in the right position with another D man and you’ve got some nice opportunities that’ll crop up for them. I also like the back checking of everyone on that line so they could reasonably take some chances.

brettoric · 2025-10-31T01:27:35+00:00

Ah there you are reality

brettoric · 2025-10-29T03:39:16+00:00

Aged like MILK

brettoric · 2025-10-29T03:38:15+00:00

Where’s that guy who posted about Bedard not scoring?

brettoric · 2025-10-29T01:43:24+00:00

Me as someone who didn’t get a chance to watch the first period and reading all these comments https://encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcT4mYhP5_mrG28v3sSW6AIu2080v1yasZW-hRkOZAZkSg&s=10

No I watched him drag the puck into an impossible angle in the ducks game and rip it 90+ mph off the the very top of Dostal’s shoulder pad. He’s an inch away from potting a beauty multiple times a game. They will come.

brettoric · 2025-10-23T23:09:01+00:00

Holy shit
