IanRees Posted December 28, 2013 Share Posted December 28, 2013 I don't mind the ot/so format, it's the point system. I've been in favor of a 3 point system for a while 3 points for reg win 2 for a ot/so win 1 for a ot/so loss weinerdog, KennyFuckingPowers and kylekrische 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weinerdog Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 What Ian said x1000. I think many of the European leagues do that, but it won't happen here since it would actually create separation in the playoff race. The NHL would rather have casual fans think their team is still in the playoff race if they're in 10th, 5 points back with 10 games left, even though leapfrogging teams becomes so difficult with 3 point games being the norm as the season winds down. Bottom line imo is that it doesn't make sense to have some games worth 50% more in points than others. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kylekrische Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 Also into the 3 point system. Just ups the level of play I think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KennyFuckingPowers Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 Also agreeing with Ian. USA continues their domination in the WJC. Also did anyone see that shootout winner in the Czech Republic/Canada game for the Czech's? Kid Rick Nash'ed Canada. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KennyFuckingPowers Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 I cant believe Im saying this.........but I hope the Rangers try to trade for Marchand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KennyFuckingPowers Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 Don't the Bs want Girardi? Yup. Which would kill me to send back but hes struggling a lot this season and will command for a huge payday next year. I love G, and dont want to see him go, but if it makes the team better...well....you have to do it. DZ is supposed to go to Ottawa, but they want Methot in return and Ottawa apparently doesnt want to move him. Knowing Sather, he will make the better trade no matter what. But regardless I think he should try and pursue Marchand. Because the Rangers need that shit head. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KennyFuckingPowers Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 Benoit Pouliot has been on a fucking tear lately and its hilarious considering how useless/hated he was at the beginning of the year. thechrisformat 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
6heart6breaker6 Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 Went to the hawks game friday (Won 7-2 vs. COL), going tonight against LA, and then again on the 12th against EDM. I was a good boy so santa likes me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IanRees Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 Im not sure if i still get NBC sports on my cable package so i might not be able watch the game tonight, which might not be the worst thing in the world. Sounds like the Leafs have made Kadri available for trade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IanRees Posted December 31, 2013 Share Posted December 31, 2013 NBC really needs to stop saying CHI & LA don't like each other. They are trying to manufacture a rivalry that just isn't there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KennyFuckingPowers Posted December 31, 2013 Share Posted December 31, 2013 Please god let Toronto trade one of their brightest youngsters. Its like they never want to win. kylekrische 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kylekrische Posted December 31, 2013 Share Posted December 31, 2013 I can see wanting to trade him. He's a cocky pain in the ass, he can't win a faceoff to save his life and he clearly doesn't understand any system that isn't him just taking the puck. Christ, if the price is right I'd trade him.

Mnolan15 Posted December 31, 2013 Share Posted December 31, 2013 Let's hope for a good New Year's Eve! I'm pumped to go to the Stars game. I am hoping they can win and Phoenix can lose so the Stars could end 2013 in the top 8. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weinerdog Posted December 31, 2013 Share Posted December 31, 2013 Don't get me wrong...Phaneuf ain't worth that contract, but I think he gets more than his share of blame for their overall horrific team D. Right now they're just going to limp into the playoffs in the weak East and get killed the first round. Not exactly progress after the choke job last year. Clarkson's contract is still the one that is mind-boggling. As for Kadri, he'll want a big long term deal next season that the Leafs just don't think he's worth.
