2016-2017 NHL Regular Season Thread, Week 26: Holy Fuck Colorado Was Bad

[Obsidian]

Denmark well on its way to sending Finland to Relegation.

Edit: Wait, I think the Swiss need to win this to send Finland to relegation.

[Obsidian]

RIP Finland.

I think Panarin's "unselfish" contract for the next 2 years is a great idea on his manager's part. He's not going to get as much production playing on another team, especially not right away. I think he takes these next 2 years, stays consistent, gets a chance at a cup (he's probably banking on getting one within the next 2 years with the Hawks) then lands a major contract from another team for big dollars and ends his career somewhere else quietly.

Drama in Team Finland. Coach Jukka Rautakorpi and 3 assistant coaches fired just now. Jussi Ahokas is the new head coach starting from now.

[DFJS]

Ducks blow it in ot again. They should just automatically give the 2nd point to the other team. 3 out of 4 points ain't all that bad but I'd really like it if they could figure this overtime shit out.

Rata cant even post on BG without plagiarizing.

Calling it "Unsustainabowl" is pretty fucking amazing I have to say.

On Panarin's part it pretty fantastic honestly. He gets solid pay for only having been in the league for 1 year and he keeps getting to play with Kane and showing off how good he is. And what makes it really good is that technically he's an RFA right now but when this contract is up, he'll be a UFA. So if he is the real deal and a solid producing forward, he'll be getting a bigger pay raise in 2 years anyway.

It's the Blackhawks that either have to move a piece to accommodate him (supposedly Crawford's name is getting spread around as a possible choice which doesn't make sense as Darling is still pretty untested and new) or they cripple their roster severely next season.

[Mythe_Seraph]

Krueger And Darling are gone probably. I wouldn't say Darling is untested.

Day hockey!!

Caps with the lead early!

And now John moore down and getting stretchered off

[Sepukku]

Im not crazy about that hit. Its not super malicious - no visible intent from Tom Wilson like he was going out of his way to intentionally injure Moore - but its still one a quarter second late into the numbers along the board that he probably should've done the Brian Burke pin to the glass or just outright passed on it and turned out of the hit and looped behind the net to begin backchecking. Itll be interesting to see if the NHL disciplines that hit.

[Cail]

Refs are the third team in this game. Penalties everywhere

[Cail]

Yoshie and Ovi back2back, 33 secs apart woooo

[bori]

Wtf is up with Refs instantly breaking up fights.

NJ PP is 0/7 with 4 shots (on their 8th now)
