Guess who leads the league in even-strength goals?
Yes it’s the Habs, who everyone (myself included) thought would have a hard time scoring.

Their PP is atrocious though.

 

when I see Tomas Tatar has found his game again... in a habs jersey

 

sharks with a hot .880 save % and an average team at high scoring chances against

jones is GARBAGE

 

Ya as of now it looks like the Habs won the Domi trade.

 

Definitely. Even if Galchenyuk will end up scoring 40 goals for Arizona, I will still like that trade from a Habs perspective. Domi brings so much energy to this team, which Galchenyuk and Pacioretty sorely lacked.

 

Eberle for Spooner is a good deal

 

Jordan Eberle and Taylor Hall are pretty quick lolololololol

 

If only a seventh round pick were thrown in. Oh well, strome is hot garbage, this helps the tank.

Spooner deserves better than the oilers though.

 

There's still time to vote for Strome in the "Who will have the best moustache by the end of the month?" poll

Before doing that though, watch a profile of Strome talkin' 'bout Edmonton posted by the Oilers yesterday

 

Every piece of social media content the Oilers release now (which compared to more well-run franchises, isn't much) is going to trigger waves of trade rumours, which is a level of incompetence I hadn't even considered before today

 

I love when trades happen because as a new fan of the sport I see everyone make sarcastic remarks that don’t make sense to me and then I get to do some research and go down fun rabbit holes to catch up and then laugh at the jokes

(Being serious here, this is fun for me)

 

one day we had 2 of the biggest trades in the league happen and one trade involved oilers

 

Big road test for Sabres coming up. Few difficult places to play in a row

 

Somewhere in Montreal there's a pundit claiming they won the subban trade.

 

I would devour a full-length story or novelization or film adaptation or all of the above from this day

So much fun!

 

The news breaking of Stamkos signing basically being met with "Oh, okay cool" sums up that day. It might be the most concentrated day of fun, drama, and wildness in the NHL since I don't even know when.

I'm sure that day was not fun for the approximately 32 people that combine to make up the "Realistic Habs Fans" and "Oilers Fans Who Realize That McDavid Can Not Score The Necessary 8 Goals Per Game To Make This Franchise A Cup Contender" groups.

 

The Bruins are on their 12th defenseman of the year and somehow gave up one goal last night. Impressive

Also Chara out 4-6 weeks :))))

 

Buffalo has been extremely impressive so far on this brutal stretch. Only giving up one goal a piece to Tampa Bay and Winnipeg is something not a lot of teams could do in consecutive games.

 

No Vatanen or Hischier today

RIP

 

you're playing detroit so nothing to worry about

 

The rangers traded a player who can play for a borderline NHLer, they're big mad they're playing well

 

aaand the red wings appear to be getting outshot by double again. shocker

 

Blake Coleman has been awesome this year

maybe our 3rd best forward
