P2F Old-Timey Member Posted May 26, 2021 Posted May 26, 2021 I was hoping for so much more from Toronto - Montreal. The Habs just are not good enough. 4 goals in 4 games against the Leafs is pathetic. Carey Price is only mediocre now; he can't steal a series anymore. Likewise, I had that series pegged beforehand as one to watch. As you said, it's turned out to be one to avoid at all costs instead. Almost every other series has had some glaring flaw, too. Colorado vs. St. Louis: The Avs absolutely dummied the Blues. It was like watching the bully steal some poor nerdy ginger kid's lunch money. Boston vs. Washington: Lots of shots, but the product was very sloppy. Did not enjoy. Edmonton vs. Winnipeg: Had no redeeming qualities. And it was a sweep. Pittsburgh vs. New York: Jekyll and Hyde series. 3 of 5 games have been bad. Carolina vs. Nashville: The 'Canes have destroyed the Preds in every way, but Saros has singlehandedly kept Nashville in it. Their offense will go entire periods at times without a dangerous scoring chance. Vegas vs. Minnesota: Vegas has dominated this series. Like Nashville, Minnesota is only alive because of goaltending. Virtually half the series have been lopsided as hell and the other ones have just been bad. Florida and Tampa are the exception, but even they haven't been immune to bad hockey at times. At least having the fans (mostly) back has helped inject some sorely needed life into it all, I guess.
P2F Old-Timey Member Posted May 26, 2021 Posted May 26, 2021 It will be a damn shame if Florida doesn't win tonight to force a Game 7.
King Old-Timey Member Posted May 26, 2021 Posted May 26, 2021 I watched Tampa Florida the other day and I was disappointed in Tampa. I thought they would be better. But then you realize they have retreads like Pat Maroon and Luke Schenn slugging it out every third shift and kind of realize why. Florida was running them into the ground and it was only a matter time before they took the lead in the 2nd period. Winnipeg Edmonton was a complete cheese series. Edmonton probably should have won all 4 games if you look at xG. Vegas Colorado will be fun at least, assuming Vegas moves on. I really like watching the Avs. Such a good team. I would be slightly annoyed if Vegas kicks them out in the 2nd round because of this stupid playoff format.
King Old-Timey Member Posted May 27, 2021 Posted May 27, 2021 Vegas Minnesota is an absolute slog. Neither team has come close to scoring. Nothing entertaining about this game
Pendleton Old-Timey Member Posted May 27, 2021 Posted May 27, 2021 Vegas Minnesota is an absolute slog. Neither team has come close to scoring. Nothing entertaining about this game Such a defensive game, no room out there at all. Both teams playing safe
Scion Verified Member Posted May 27, 2021 Posted May 27, 2021 I don't know if this has been mentioned yet, but with the Pens and Panthers losing yesterday it is impossible for the Leafs to draw the Colorado Avalanche until the SCF should both teams make it that far. One of Boston/New York has to advance to the final 4 and thus they will be the low seed against Colorado/Vegas.

Scion Verified Member Posted June 2, 2021 Posted June 2, 2021 This aged well I made the mistake of telling it to my colleagues at work too. They all let me have it this morning.
sack_bunt Verified Member Posted June 5, 2021 Posted June 5, 2021 Much like the Leafs, I am already thinking about next year and the draft. I’m looking to move any of my young D, prospect D as well, to acquire a 1st round pick. Some D (like Sergachev) would cost more than that. Go Habs Go

What team are you? We could use THE D most likely.

The Cats Ass Old-Timey Member Posted July 24, 2021 Author Posted July 24, 2021 I legit forgot I was in this league. This league is like the red headed step child that no one likes.
JG34 Verified Member Posted July 26, 2021 Posted July 26, 2021 Is anyone planning on leaving the league? Once we have that figured out I can run a draft lottery.

jaysblue Old-Timey Member Posted July 27, 2021 Posted July 27, 2021 I still need to win a championship in this league, so lets not fold it yet!

z3r0s Old-Timey Member Posted July 27, 2021 Posted July 27, 2021 I was out, did my spot get filled? Can't remember and I don't want it to sneak up you ya'lls.
Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted July 27, 2021 Posted July 27, 2021 Yea I’m probably out too. Again.
Spanky99 Old-Timey Member Posted July 28, 2021 Posted July 28, 2021 Yea I’m probably out too. Again. Wtf???
Laika Community Moderator Posted July 29, 2021 Posted July 29, 2021 Just refuse to transfer Dinger's team and he can't leave.
TheHurl Site Manager Posted July 31, 2021 Posted July 31, 2021 As long as you are okay with my longterm inactivity I'll be staying. I say we make J4L break away. He's a hockey expert.

You should probably all want my negligent ass out of the league anyway. I have a core of Draisaitl-Stamkos-Scheifele-Ovechkin and didn't even make the playoffs because I put absolutely no effort into this league and probably didn't even set my lineups like 30% of the season. And I know less about hockey than ever!

BTS Community Moderator Posted September 4, 2021 Posted September 4, 2021 When is the draft? Buuuuump
Spanky99 Old-Timey Member Posted September 4, 2021 Posted September 4, 2021 Buuuuump I'll get it rocking after our baseball finals. We'll be moving to 2 more 'Spects and it'll be a full dynasty, rules have to be altered and s***, we can do it after the draft as it doesn't coincide with any rule changes.
