I am taking my son to Pittsburgh to catch a hockey and baseball game in April. My brother in law used to be the assistant trainer for the local QMJHL here and the trainer there is now the head trainer

Holy f***, Pascal Dupuis has a blood clot in his lung, out 6 months, might end his career, sad news man as a fan.

Nolan Patrick is so good. Incredible he still has 2 more seasons after this one until he's draft eligible

Patrick Povorov, Clague if he can stay healthy. Going to be fun to watch for many years to come.

Calgary Flames bitches...what a game!

 

I was at that game last night. The atmosphere was absolutely electrifying! The crowd was deafening on the Gaudreau and Backlund goals, especially. And of course the Red Mile after the game was a treat as always.

 

I love this city.

my brother has season tickets, but couldn't go to the game. I wish I lived in Calgary so I could go. I went to a round 3 game in 04 against the sharks. The rink was electric that night too!

I'm jelly, the only Playoff game I saw was against the Devils, Leafs mustered up 13 shots on Brodeur and lost 1-0. Than there was all the Buffalo PO games I went to see, because Leaf tickets are outrageous.

Not sure if posted ITT, but there's a laughable rumour going around. The Leafs would trade Kessel+Kadri+3rd rd pick to the Canes for the 5th overall pick and Semin.

 

I'm going to hazard a guess that a Canes fan on HFBoards started this "rumour".

I know I'm late, but what exactly did Peter Chiarelli do to get fired? Just not getting enough for Seguin?

Basically that + maybe kept the roster too stagnant over the years

Seems like a pretty reactionary move to one missed playoffs after a pretty awesome 7-year run that included a championship. Is there really someone better out there waiting to be hired?

It really does seem like a dumb move.

Agreed, and I doubt it.

 

It seems pretty likely to me that Chiarelli would have been fully capable of taking the missed playoffs as a wakeup call and altering his own process in a way that would please ownership and get them back there soon. They were easily a top 8 team in the conference this season based on talent, probably top 5.

 

I don't follow hockey close enough to know anything about their AGMs or whether or not they might have someone qualified already in house.

That is partly his fault, since the team's cap was near the ceiling. However, it was so because the team made it to two Cup finals in the past 5 years.

He's made some other bad moves too. The Kaberle trade was a disaster and he was also willing to give up a 2nd or 3rd round pick for Chris Phillips last year which scares me. I think he gets a ton of credit for that team when he got really lucky with Chara falling in his lap. He's probably an above average GM but not by much.

 

Really hope he does well in Edmonton though.
