ATLL765 Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 Despite the crappy defense of the Oilers, he placed that shot with absolute precision. That's the hardest place for a goalie to make a save imo because you have to bring your shoulder up high enough to get a piece. That's not easy to do while you're down in the butterfly position.

sokar Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 Its a shame the Red Wing vs Bruins game is going to end in a shoot out. I wish the league would have a 10 min over time instead of 5 min. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATLL765 Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 It's bad goaltending. Maybe you could say he should have been more aggressive by coming out to challenge the shooter more, but a shot placed there is hard a difficult to stop.

Zubie#8 Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 Hell of a game by Hiller. Flames were outshot 50-18 but defeated the Hawks 2-1 in OT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colorado Rockies 1976 Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 "The New York Rangers are one of the most decorated and revered teams in all of hockey...." ...Only they're not.... Also from that site: Playing at "The World's Most Famous Arena," Madison Square Garden, the Rangers have built a storied reputation on pride, passion, and tradition. Throughout their 89-year history, the Rangers have provided their loyal, True Blue fans with some of the most memorable moments in New York sports history. What's both sad and hilarious (or hilariously sad or sadly hilarious) is that the NHL's dumbest fanbase actually thinks this way. They'll NEVER be the Yankees of the NHL no matter how much they want to believe that they are. Anyway, love that they're sucking to start the year, but they'll recover...Lundqvist has had shaky moments before, but he'll have his .920-or-so save% by the end of the season (and the last game was definitely more his teammates' fault than his). Not that I wouldn't love seeing him have an off-year at top dollar, and watching Ranger fans freak out and turn on him as a result...

SterioDesign Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 Ilya Kovalchuk has 16 goals in 18 games this season and his team, SKA St. Petersburg, is an amazing 17-1-0. alright so where's the people who kept saying Kovy sucked, couldnt score and was done in the KHL again?

Derlique Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 alright so where's the people who kept saying Kovy sucked, couldnt score and was done in the KHL again? The KHL is on par with the AHL (and may be worse) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's about what he should be averaging in that glorified beer league. Anything less then he would be a miserable failure. I am just happy the Devils are out of that contract. By year 7 that thing would have been extremely painful and with another 8 years left on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thefiestygoat Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 The KHL is on par with the AHL (and may be worse) I've been watching all the KHL games that are broadcasted on One World Sports and I have to say that some of the defense and goaltending is absolutely brutal. Right now there are over 20 players above a point per game, including guys like Stephane Da Costa (1 less point than Kovalchuk). Even Nicklas Bergfors is almost a point per game player right now. Last year only saw 4 players finish above a point per game so I think the scoring is really inflated in the KHL right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you think about it, getting rid of Kovalchuk was an absolute no brainer. They take up 8.5 million (compared to 6.66) on this year's cap and are two legit top liners. You can make the argument that both of them are better than IK and we don't have to deal with it Kovy's decline a huge recaputure penalty Edited October 16, 2014 by SMantzas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
