Dubey 1,035 Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 Might not be going to Super Bowl anymore, lol. Devan was supposed to be getting the official word on tickets today after practice. Link to post Share on other sites
MapleLeafpoker 1,462 Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 Really not sure how I feel about this. That team seems to be under seige, but they have a lot of talent there, I cant see them struggling for long. And they usually play great D. Link to post Share on other sites
Zach6668 513 Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 I get the feeling it's one of those things where they'll fire the coach and go in a ridiculous run. Playoffs may be too ambitious for this year though. But also, one of their biggest problems has been getting consistent, decent goaltending. Link to post Share on other sites
Dubey 1,035 Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 I mean, from a career standpoint, it's not a bad thing. He was playing too well for Phoenix to be able to afford him next year more than likely. There may be an oppurtunity in Minnesota for a contract for next year depending on how the rest of this year goes. I can't imagine they traded a 3rd round pick for him to come in and be the backup for half a season. Link to post Share on other sites
Dubey 1,035 Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 just realized this means Devan gets to play the Oilers three more times this year. Win win win. Link to post Share on other sites
GWCGWC 83 Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 Traded to the Wild? I'm sorry*. *Not really, playing on any NHL team has to be the coolest thing ever.....even on the Wild. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Dubey 1,035 Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 oh yeah, I forgot about your hate-on for the wild. I can be the Wild Fan that gets offended now when you make fun of the Wild! This is exciting. 2 Link to post Share on other sites
Zach6668 513 Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 Wild have become one of my favorite non-Penguins teams. That title tends to rotate around over the years. Carolina was up there for a while, San Jose... just depends on who is fun to watch. I imagine having like 90% of the team between my two keeper leagues has something to do with it. (Parise, Zucker, Haula, Cooke, Graovac, Suter, Spurgeon, Dumba... lol). They've become a legit interesting team to watch. It's insane that they can't find a way to win. They were so good in the playoffs last year, too. Link to post Share on other sites
Zach6668 513 Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 Their top 9 forwards are great: Parise, Koivu, Pominville, Vanek, Coyle, Zucker, Nino, Granlund.... up and I guess Brodziak, who is a decent enough 3rd line center. Link to post Share on other sites
TheDaveyG 6 Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 There was a rivalry starting between the wild and Hawks, but they need to meet in the playoffs again to really get it going. Central is a tough division this year. Link to post Share on other sites
serge 904 Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 Very interesting evening for the family of two regular posters in the hockey forum this evening. Brother of Dubey, Devan Dubnyk gets a 7-0 shutout in his Minnesota debut. Couple of hours earlier son of Serge, Adrian gets a shutout by the exact score of 7-0 vs the Ajax Knights. While one is an NHL player and the other a Minor Atom AA goalie, it's sort of ironic and cool. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

MapleLeafpoker 1,462 Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 tonights Habs-NYI broadcast is brutal, Romanuk sounded really slow and off, and now I see on twitter that hes sick. Its a really strange play by play, like the guy is bored out of his mind and wants to give as little info as absolutely possible. lol poor guy, call in sick man! Link to post Share on other sites

Dubey 1,035 Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 Was at my buddy's 2 year old'sbday party and my buddy is a habs fan so I was stuck watching that game. Romanuk was hilarious, he wasnt even calling the game, he was just saying the name of whoever had the puck in a low voice. "Desharnais, pacioretty, subban, dump in. Tavares, Nelson, Tavares, save."

serge 904 Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 This is really cool. http://nhllotterysimulator.com/#/ This really illustrates the new lottery system. The Leafs won on my third try. It's sort of like poker. Buffalo is favoured but 80 percent of the time they won't win. Sort of like Aces in poker with 10 players in Link to post Share on other sites

If David Stern was the NHL commish the chances of the Leafs winning the lottery would be a lot closer to 100% Link to post Share on other sites
