Spanky99 Old-Timey Member Posted May 15, 2023 Posted May 15, 2023 Man, didn't think the Oilers would go down in 6.
Horses Fart Old-Timey Member Posted May 15, 2023 Posted May 15, 2023 Man, didn't think the Oilers would go down in 6. It’s a beautiful thing!
Krylian Old-Timey Member Posted May 15, 2023 Posted May 15, 2023 Man, didn't think the Oilers would go down in 6. Can't play 5-on-5. Have no reliable goaltending Not really a surprise.
Laika Community Moderator Posted May 15, 2023 Posted May 15, 2023 Oilers and the Leafs are similar. Similar issues. Oilers are like a more extreme version though.
WryNGinger Verified Member Posted May 17, 2023 Posted May 17, 2023 Last one in Phoenix turns the lights off. That embarrassment needs to end now.

Krylian Old-Timey Member Posted May 17, 2023 Posted May 17, 2023 There was a vote yesterday for a new arena for Arizona. They had 3 proposals, all three were voted down. NHL will be meeting with Arizona soon to discuss next steps. It's pretty clear Arizona doesn't want an NHL franchise. Bettman not accepting this is frustrating. Admit you made a mistake and move on.
jaysblue Old-Timey Member Posted May 17, 2023 Posted May 17, 2023 They should bring an NHL team back to Quebec City or maybe Halifax. The GTA could also support another hockey team as well like around Hamilton or Kitchener/Waterloo/Cambridge area, though doubt MLSE would want that. Also, a lot of teams too close to each other - TOR, BUF, DET, OTT and MTL. In the US, maybe Salt Lake City or Milwaukee could be options.

That's not even a discussion worth having. Quebec? Maybe, but they already failed there once...and it is a small market that is further down the pecking order...more cities out there with a lot more corporate money. Unfortunately they're all in the US but this is what the owners and Bettman want. And what they want, they get.

Apparently they are building an NHL size stadium in an Atlanta suburb. Surely the league wouldn't be dumb enough to try that market for a third time, right?

Thought Quebec because they did bring the Jets back to Winnipeg and they've been a success. I think Quebec could work again since it does bring in a lot of tourism and has grown since the 1990s. I really think another team in the GTA would work. Heck even in Mississauga. MLSE and the NHL won't allow it though.

Helps when the richest man in the country owns the franchise.

They're lucky Carolina and Florida have been successful on the ice or otherwise they wouldn't be getting anyone at the games. Arizona is already a failure. Salt Lake City, Milwaukee, maybe Baltimore.
Spanky99 Old-Timey Member Posted May 19, 2023 Posted May 19, 2023 (edited) No goal, man. Double OT... Triple OT... Gassed! Quadruple OT... Now I'm tired. Edited May 19, 2023 by Spanky99
jaysblue Old-Timey Member Posted May 19, 2023 Posted May 19, 2023 No goal, man. Double OT... Triple OT... Gassed! Quadruple OT... Now I'm tired. I just cracked open another beer mate. Bring it on!
Spanky99 Old-Timey Member Posted May 19, 2023 Posted May 19, 2023 TKachuk wins it with 12.7 seconds remaining in the 4th OT... Crazy game and what a beauty shot!
TheHurl Site Manager Posted May 19, 2023 Posted May 19, 2023 I need Vegas and Florida final for an alright score in the brackets. Perfect West and a mess in the East (which no one having Florida helped)
jaysblue Old-Timey Member Posted May 19, 2023 Posted May 19, 2023 Dubas not returning to Leafs next season
Spanky99 Old-Timey Member Posted May 19, 2023 Posted May 19, 2023 Dubas not returning to Leafs next season Didn't expect that, wow.
BTS Community Moderator Posted May 19, 2023 Posted May 19, 2023 Dubas not returning to Leafs next season Welcome to Ottawa, Kyle
Spanky99 Old-Timey Member Posted May 19, 2023 Posted May 19, 2023 Welcome to Ottawa, Kyle Nah, in his presser the other day he spoke about the job putting stress on his family, he said he'd stay in for the Leafs only. Maybe down the road, sure.
jaysblue Old-Timey Member Posted May 19, 2023 Posted May 19, 2023 Big question looming now is what happens to Matthews. Does he sign an extension with a new GM here or does he want to test free agency? Have to trade him by July 1st.
