  1. They're trying to be too fine given how Andersen has played the last couple of games. Edit: I owe it to the guy to get his name correct.
  2. I don't care for Wingels with Krejci and DeBrusk. I would much prefer Rick Nash or Donato on that line. How many plays last night died because Wingels can't match the skill of the other two? He is a nice plugger but shouldn't be riding on the second line. And if Krug pounds one more shot into shin pads I'm going to personally go down there and revoke his shooting privileges.
  3. I wonder if Giroux would have had a DPOS call on the Hagelin hit if the Flyers hadn't been eliminated. He definitely appeared to raise up and obviously Hagelin was leaking from the mouth.
  4. If the Bruins came out in the first like they did in the third then they would have blown the Leafs out of the building. They need to start the game with that kind of urgency.
  5. I believe that is basically the entire thinking behind the True skate.
  6. And Matthews doesn't really have the benefit of veteran examples to really learn from that a guy like DeBrusk does in the Boston room.
  7. Andersson definitely pulled off some larceny in game 3. The playoffs are all about goaltending and power plays.
  8. Body language says TO is done. I hate to see that out of a young talent like Matthews.
  9. The call on Hornqvist was spot on. He made no contact with head and boards and tossed his head back like he had. I immediately called that a flop at the sports bar before any replay.
  10. A few weeks on these and this steel holds an edge like nothing I've been on before.
  11. He's Marchand Lite, all the stupid, half the ability.
  12. Sure, if he is a bonafide leader that can mentor the kids. Kovalchuk is not that.
  13. Signing a 35 year old guy isn't exactly how one rebuilds a franchise.
  14. If he owns a store then why doesn't he just develop a relationship with True and save himself the "perceived" aggravation?
  15. The employee probably made the assumption that someone looking to add the integrated shot blockers is someone who already wears some form of them and would know they will add some weight.
  16. I'm going Bruins in 6 but I can see this series being tight and coming down to the wire.
  17. Longer options and stiffer flexes are also available thru MyBauer.
  18. I'm now 3 skates in and with my foot settling into the ankle pads the pitch is matching what I was used to skating on prior to these. Outside of adjusting to the steel height difference between my super worn down LS2 and the new SB black, these bad boys are really dialing in for me.
  19. 2 skates in on these and they're a great set of wheels. Increased pitch coming off Tuuk is taking a little getting used to but getting nice response from these.
  20. Reminds of when the Mrs. and I watch the Amazing Race together. At some point either one of us could say, "We'd kill each other".
  21. If you're going to quote me and disagree, at least reread what I wrote first. Nothing worse than being lectured for saying exactly what the lecturer posts in response.
  22. They play low off the points but they do their best to be in the shooting lane.
  23. Not much more annoying that being at the point and the opposing forward just glues themselves to you.
  24. Beer league should always keep it simple. The two D and center (or first guy back) handle down low and wings are responsible for the points. With the short benches and constant subs in and out of beer league teams you really can't adopt any actual system as the guys won't have enough familiarity with each other to execute.
  25. It has been a few years since I've been behind the bench as an assistant but I'm always happy to share my philosophies.
