This hit from Pospisil was also pretty sick, in the less good kind of way.

Brayden Point a healthy scratch for missing a team meeting.

Selfish player, I'll give Tampa one Jeff Skinner for him

[Richybear]

Also totally unrelated, but I still laughed reading the headlines separately with Michael Bunting in a minor car accident - he's fine. But Habs player Emil Heinmann out 3-4 after being hit as a pedestrian.

Damn, the Lightning are scratching a guy who has more powerplay goals than the New York Islanders

[Bombur]

He is so hot right now..lol

Tony DeAnglo is so awful, as a human, even the KHL don't want him..lol

Dubas masterclass signing

[Obsidian]

Never ever ever sign a goalie to a 5x5 contract. They have literally all failed spectacularly.

[Bombur]

Jarry is another marvelous example of "do not pay mediocre goalies". He's another guy on that Campbell/Merzlikins/Petersen group that wasn't good enough to justify the massive money/term they got.

Jarry clears

Huge effort from the big boys to get both points tonight and snap their 3 game skid. Even more crucial because Florida lost as well.

[Richybear]

Oilers give up 3 in the first 12 minutes and come back to beat the Avs. First time in his 13 games there that Blackwood gave up more than 2. lol

[Bombur]

This is either going to be great for the Oilers or extremely entertaining for everyone else. There is no in between.

Incredible picture to use though. Not a single tooth to be seen.

[Cail]

Ovi scored again. Game winner again. New goalie again

[Richybear]

For only a mill it's not bad, if he doesn't work out, just bury him in the minors or with Jeff Skinner in the press box.

I just dunno who I'd pair him with. If it's Klingberg/Nurse that could be headlines of "Edmonton man drowns in bathtub of whisky during first period of hockey game" type thing

First goalie in NHL history to have a goal and an assist in the same game.

[Richybear]

Didn't even get in a fight to complete it, scrub

[DFJS]

Didn't think the Ducks powerplay could get worse than last year, but I guess I was wrong. Shut out for the 3rd time in 5 games.
