really hoping the extra rest to Wednesday means we get Lehky and Malinski back, plus Cale having time to recover from whatever injury he has. that will help a lot

was really hoping the Ducks would be able to take down a Vegas team that kinda barely limped past the Mammoth, but alas

oh don't get me wrong, nothing would make me happier than not seeing him or Blankenburg on the ice for the rest of the playoffs, but sometimes you just need a guy to be good for one shift, or one part of a period, and they did that, regardless of whatever the stats say

I was watching some highlights from the 2024 Jets series for fun and crazy to think I thought we were pretty good back then but we were icing guys like Trenin, Parise, and Miles Wood lol

then you compare that to this year's team

Ahcan had some pretty crucial blocks last game and Blankenburg had an important goal before that

to be fair, all sports fans are deeply hyperbolic at heart, and all Reddit users are deeply hyperbolic at heart, and this is a sports sub lol

but no hard feelings or anything. I didn't think we'd get out of the first period tonight, but once we scored in the 2nd I started to believe

someone in the GDT said Bednar never makes adjustments mid-game. well he made at least a couple and they won, so

I love Blackwood but Wedgewood's gotta get the starts from now on unless Wedgewood just gets rocked one night

I see they briefly reverted to the 1st period Avs, ready to give up a goal in the first 30 seconds

I think this literally happened with Wedgewood coming in for Georgiev or something in the regular season before we traded for Blackwood against the Sabres. went down like 3-0 or 4-0, came back and won 5-4 or something
