2023-24 NHL Season Thread.

That was hot garbage... Tuevo had been looking so good

Right, our 3rd line had some pretty good chances on Tuesdays game, it was non-existent last night and with the 4th line split up Anaheim was able to control the pace more. I did think Cumiskey looked a lot better though, just read that TVR got recalled today so we'll see what happens there.

I thought so too, he looked comfortable enough.

Super psyched about potential TVR return.

Q said he wont play tomorrow but possibly in this series, also said Tuevo and Vermette could possibly return tomorrow. Not sure what was going through Q's head when he brought Versteeg and Nordstrom into the 4th line. I understand that Shaw has stepped up into a big role lately but its the playoffs, so if a line works well then keep them together.

Talk about a fast-paced first period. And Nash remembered how to drive the net.

Grats on the win! Lundqvist looked really good last game and it was fun for StL to finally score, even though he should have scored a hat trick with all the chances he got.

Thats a good sign, he isn't worth much as a perimeter player, his goals are around the net.

Both goals came from right in front. That's the player he needs to be. I think he's just hesitant sometimes because of the head injuries he has gotten in his career.

One other thing: What does everyone think of Tampa not allowing people to wear the jersey of their opponents in certain sections of the arena? I think it's pretty damn disgusting and the NHL shouldn't allow it.

[Zeoni]

Fire hydrant sure goes down easily from that Sharp slash.

My god what a beautiful rush from Saad, get outta the way ref tho

[draynay]

you don't often see the official straight up give a team a goal

[Zeoni]

What the hell just happened, start watching UFC when it's 2-1 Hawks and I come back and it's 3-3 now? God damn!

UHH Crawford?

What a hell of a game, this series is something else. WCF seems to steal the show every year.

That's not that uncommon anymore.

[Nazrark]

That's not that uncommon anymore.

It's mostly a fan safety thing. The league has had a lot of incidents with drunken fans recently.

[draynay]

It isn't a fan safety thing when its the people in high-visibility areas forced to change. Different sport, but theres always a big stink in Arizona when somebody is sitting behind the plate wearing Dodger stuff. If in Tampa they are going after people sitting behind the benches or other spots where the camera is likely to find them, safety is not the motivation.

[Garbles]

Went to the game last night, the hangover is real right now. When the Hawks went up 3-1 i think thats the loudest I've ever heard the UC. Then the Ducks went up 4-3 and I think you'd be able to hear a pin drop, but all that matters is Hawks took it in OT.

Sidenote in the Toews Kane era the Hawks are 14-0 in games 5 & 6 when the series is tied 2-2, hopefully they can keep it going.

[Zeoni]

We can only hope this game is half as good as the one last night

[Reg]

Nope.

lol seriously. I had it on in the background while playing Witcher 3, 1-1...turn around 4-3... and only like 4 minutes went by. I honestly thought I was watching a flashback or something from an earlier game.

[Armourboy]

That was a brutal first period, about as dominating as I've seen in these playoffs.

[Zeoni]

what a fucking series my god
