2018-2019 NHL Thread

Doing the limbo isn't "intense" in any way and they're not showboating (the other team has left the ice by the time this happens).

It's literally harmless fun (until one of them pops a shoulder jumping into the boards that is).

Exactly. And, aren't sports supposed to be fun? Aren't they supposed to provide entertainment? What's wrong with showing some joy when they win? I mean, we're mostly talking about guys in the 20s here. Let them act their age - and, at that age, it often means doing goofy stuff like this.

Not an NHL tilt, but I look forward to the talking heads fritzing out over this.

I?d be down to see dance offs to settle scores.

And were given 2 points last night. Their tying goal was an obvious highstick but they counted it. He never made contact again until after it crossed the goal line. Just weird.

Ooooohhhhh can't wait for Cherry to see this.

He never made contact again until after it crossed the goal line.

The only way that goal would have counted is if he did make contract again before it crossed the line. From the angles shown in that video it certainly looks close. I'd imagine an overhead angle would say for sure and if the goal was allowed then the NHL must have seen him making contact again.

Exactly what Nashville/Boston is looking for.

Are you missing his diarrhea joke, or am I missing your diarrhea joke?

The latter. Also a very very mild reference to their toilet contents colours.

And don't forget, the Habs' crest looks like a toilet seat.

DOPS announced that he's having a hearing. Leddy left the game but returned after clearing the concussion protocols.

That's a nice deal for the Wild.

He must really like it there.

 

[Kin]

It's a fair enough deal but Minnesota is in such a weird middling place that it's hard to not look at it as just making him slightly more attractive trade bait.

 

[Bullfrog]

Very close to his home.
