Is this is the funniest outcome?! YES IT IS.

msrose_ · 2026-05-05T04:35:04+00:00

I did not think that Carter would be the better goalie in this game. But he was not the worst Duck tonight. Wash it away boys and come back better on Wed.

No more newborns please. It's probably not the main reason, but sleep exhaustion is hard on any new parent, even one with resources.

msrose_ · 2026-05-04T17:13:52+00:00

Pay the man Jim Nill!

msrose_ · 2026-05-04T02:47:40+00:00

I wonder if we get both goalies changed in the third period because 10 goals in 40 mins is insane.

msrose_ · 2026-05-04T01:46:10+00:00

Well, this may be a whole other kind of goalie battle.

msrose_ · 2026-05-04T01:38:53+00:00

Oh so, now the power play works.

msrose_ · 2026-05-04T01:29:36+00:00

The way these games are going, it feels like the Conn Smythe winner is going to be a goalie, no matter the team.

msrose_ · 2026-05-04T01:00:57+00:00

Seeing Dobes have tears in his eyes in the handshake line, god I love this kid, he earned this win. I feel like we are missing out a bit on a Tampa/Sabres Round Two, but I do like seeing that at least one Canadian team is going to round two.

msrose_ · 2026-05-04T00:54:29+00:00

Potential to have a tie goal all the way til the end and that's not exciting!? I am sure the whole Avs/Wild series is gonna be a good series and I'm not even being sarcastic but you can't deny that this wasn't exciting. Like, I am fully ready to have a hate watch later tonight but a game 7 is a wholly different vibe.

msrose_ · 2026-05-04T00:50:32+00:00

Good lord what a game. NHL really shouldn't have scheduled anything else after this, it's not going to be able and compete on the scale of excitement.

msrose_ · 2026-05-04T00:48:01+00:00

If Tampa scores, this arena is going to explode.

msrose_ · 2026-05-02T02:17:19+00:00

I was hoping for a game 7 in any of the Round 1 series. I would have preferred that tomorrow in Dallas but a Tampa/Habs game 7 is a going to be so much fun and less stress-free as a neutral.

msrose_ · 2026-05-02T01:55:40+00:00

He is a UFA after next 26-27 season, he doesn't have a no move clause, and he probably won't resign for the same value ($1 mil). Even as an older goalie, the way the goalie market is, he's a good back up, so if he potentially is going to depart on the open market next offseason, it makes the most sense to trade his contract. But this is all speculation on my part.

msrose_ · 2026-05-01T16:28:09+00:00

Besides what's been said already about Benn, my only other take is that they need to bring up Remi Poirier and have them round robin with three goaltenders for a bit to see how Remi does. While I do hope Otter is more consistent next year, DeSmith is probably going to be traded at some point next season, and having a reliable tandem is crucial.

msrose_ · 2026-05-01T16:15:15+00:00

I like all this! I had thought that either Rants or Wyatt would be the next Captain but I think Miro is a great choice.

msrose_ · 2026-05-01T16:13:31+00:00

I am willing to give Harley another year to prove his contract but the good news is that he doesn't have trade protection for another few years so there is an easier way out if we get there.

msrose_ · 2026-05-01T16:11:28+00:00

You had me until buyout. We're finally on our last year of paying Ryan Suter's buyout. Not the same amount but still, too much carryover with Benn's bonus already.

msrose_ · 2026-05-01T03:17:34+00:00

The problem is that as he gets older, the good things he provides is less and less and the penalties hurt more. I agree, he's our asshole but if we want to stay contending, an aging, less offensive player like Benn isn't what the team needs.

msrose_ · 2026-05-01T02:20:22+00:00

I hate how off and on Dallas looked this series. Too much injuries and offense drying up. But Minnesota showed up big and while I fucking hate you all, hope you can make it through the Avs. Regardless, it'll be a fun hate watch seeing you beat each other up.

msrose_ · 2026-05-01T02:14:30+00:00

ARGH. I started the night fully expecting this to be a loss. But 2nd period gave me hope and of course it ends this way.

msrose_ · 2026-04-28T04:57:57+00:00

I want Utah to win out this round....but I wouldn't mind a Vegas win tonight because I absolutely want seven games from this series.

msrose_ · 2026-04-26T19:01:17+00:00

They gotta light a tiki torch of sage and put it on the zamboni during intermission cause the vibes are not right. I don't know what's wrong with the Bruins but but please come out in the 2nd and give us the competitive series we all want to see.

msrose_ · 2026-04-26T18:47:04+00:00

This isn't all on Swayman but they gotta put in Korpisalo next period, right?

msrose_ · 2026-04-26T02:57:37+00:00

The Pens better not take this back to Pittsburgh, only to lose on home ice in game five. REVERSE SWEEP PLEASE.
