slasher72 Posted June 11, 2023 Share Posted June 11, 2023 Yep. Looks like Vegas is winning the Cup. Give them the trophy this year and then be done with it. I don't want to see Vegas repeat next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NJDfan1711 Posted June 11, 2023 Share Posted June 11, 2023 (edited) I'm usually all for letting the players play, and I know it's the playoffs so more things get a pass than during the regular season, but I just don't understand how Tkachuk doesn't get called for more penalties, or even suspended. The dude is a gigantic bitch and I've lost all respect for him this season. He is almost always the third man in any scrum, and just again last night he comes in swinging his stick and slashing at people's shins and legs. He refuses to drop the gloves and actually go toe to toe with anyone. Edited June 11, 2023 by NJDfan1711 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's always been an ass, he's always run from fights, and he's always done dirty sh!t behind the play. He also rag dolled a VGK player at the end of the game by putting his stick around the guy's head and yanking on it towards him. That's the kind of sh!t I wish the NHL would actually suspend for. You can seriously injure someone's neck doing that sh!t. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MadDog2020 Posted June 11, 2023 Author Share Posted June 11, 2023 Big mountain to climb for Florida; they’ve already done it once, but it’s really tough to overcome a 3-1 deficit a second time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jagknife Posted June 13, 2023 Share Posted June 13, 2023 If Vegas closes out the game tonight, the guy who won the fantasy hockey league I run vacates his title for failure to pay up debts. Guy racked up a bunch of beer-chug debts (16) to multiple people, was able to drink again as of 25 March, still hasn’t paid up in full (owes 4 by the time the cup is handed out). No chance he will pay up by then we’re having some fun with it, did a full press release signed by myself and three “executive board” members. His team name/manager name will appear on our Stanley Cup beer mug as beer mugs. 8 for team name, 8 for his name. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the time this all seemed preposterous but in hindsight, we almost should have seen it coming once we started seeing McPhee's ability to extract assets from other teams prior to the expansion draft. These guys got everyone else's 4D or 8F, a fresh salary cap with no bad contracts on the books and a ton of extra draft picks in exchange for not picking certain players. That's not to minimize what they've done because McPhee and Mccrimmon have built an excellent team trough trades, free agency and the expansion draft but the path for this success was certainly there. I think we were just all trained to assume expansion teams would suck and to check back in a decade. Foley was brilliant to pony up on the exorbitant expansion fee with the condition that less players would be protected. That set up everything else they've accomplished.

Lateralous Posted June 13, 2023 Share Posted June 13, 2023 I started this series pretty much indifferent to who won and just wanted to see good games. At this point, I think I’m over the Tkachuk sh!t show. Also, the choppy schedule makes it hard to stay engaged, especially since there will be two off days before each of the next two games if they are necessary. I’m ready for tonight to be the end of the season. Go Knights Go! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
