That's really terrible news. He had been their best player, arguably, in the playoffs.

Barkov Wins Selke; Tkachuk Calls Him "Best Player In World": https://www.espn.com/nhl/story/_/id/40175237/panthers-aleksander-barkov-wins-selke-trophy-second

I am not surprised either, as he made some honest comments that he really wanted to get a deal done to stay in North Carolina. He apparently likes it there. He is from Ottawa, but it's not unusual that the Canadian player and coach becomes expatriate. Better weather in North Carolina, and really...

Blake Wheeler Ready to help Rangers against Panthers: https://www.espn.com/nhl/story/_/id/40179465/rangers-blake-wheeler-ready-capacity-east-finals Chytil says is also ready...

His entire role on the pregame and halftime show is goalie advocacy, goalie analysis and explaining goalie fundamentals, and he does all of those things well. Bissonnette's role on the show is as DT- Designated Troll. You heard of the designated hitter in baseball? In hockey pregame shows, you...

Bissonnette Accuses Refs of Betting on Colorado on controversial disallowed goal- this is what they signed up for when they made sports gambling legal: https://nypost.com/2024/05/18/sports/paul-bissonnette-questions-if-ref-was-betting-after-stars-avalanche-call/amp/

If there was as much confidence in Pickard with the Edmonton coaching staff as you have, he would be starting, but he isn't. Skinner back in net: https://www.espn.com/nhl/story/_/id/40172100/oilers-start-stuart-skinner-net-game-6-vs-canucks This is the problem with Edmonton. They have been...

Reasonable picks- I see both teams as favorites in the next round. I am hoping NY Rangers home ice advantage will count for something. Florida won the season series 2-1 but all games were close. Dallas won the season series with both Edmonton and Vancouver.

Pickard played well 1 game. He is a .905 % save pct goalie which I believe is at or below league average.

Good ESPN article on Dallas Stars and how they have made it this far: https://www.espn.com/nhl/story/_/id/40154334/nhl-playoffs-2024-stanley-cup-dallas-stars-takeaways-conference-finals-bracket

Tkachuk, Cole Caulfield are the Studs As Team USA Advances!!!!!!!! https://www.espn.com/olympics/hockey/story/_/id/40165554/jj-peterka-4-points-lead-germany-playoffs-worlds

Edmonton has to have this game. McDavid and Draisatll had a combined 1 point the last game and they are being controlled by Vancouver's big physical gorilla defensemen. Another 1 point combined performance at home CANNOT HAPPEN. Edmonton is already stymied by disappointing services from their...

Mike Sullivan named US Olympic Team Hockey Coach: https://www.espn.com/olympics/hockey/story/_/id/40170702/penguins-mike-sullivan-named-us-hockey-coach-2026-olympics This is a big deal. The USA will field its best Olympic Team ever. They have both offensive talent and goaltender and defensive...

Dallas Wins On OT Goal By Duchene!!!!!! Looked like MacKinnon was scrambling for the puck, and completely blocked Georgiev from seeing the shot. It was somewhat fortuitous, but Dallas was the better team, and they deserved to win:

What do you guys think of Paul Bissonette as an analyst? He has been called a "professional troll", but I like him.

He is a better coach than Joel Quenneville??????! WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!! NFW!!!!!!!!!!!:mad:

Marchand is a game time decision: https://www.espn.com/nhl/story/_/id/40164633/bruins-brad-marchand-game-decision-game-6-vs-panthers

Here is what Freddy said about this goal: "It definitely hurt. You don't want to give them life. I thought I have it covered, and I wasn't able to get my glove down on it. Mistake. Tough timing on that," said Andersen (19 saves), who was outdueled by Igor Shesterkin (33 saves)...

This goal reminded me, for some reason, of a funny story: https://www.nhl.com/rangers/video/nyr-car-kreider-scores-goal-against-frederik-andersen-6353058577112 It looked like there was absolutely no room for the goal to get by Anderson, and I still do not know how it did. The story this...

That second goal I don't even know how it squeezed past Freddy, but it did. It seemed like he had the side of the net blocked, but Kreider got it by him.
