day 1 halfway done. Figured I''d start a thread for not just the Rangers games.

Rangers and Canes were rusty on specials (though CAR looked much better), 1 for 14 combined on the PP. Good intensity though, hard hitting game. I thought Hank was great.

I didn't see any of NYI vs FLA, but the score is about what I'd expect from a Trotz team.

PIT came out like a house on fire, Price stood tall and MTL's two youngsters, Kotkaniemi and Suzuki have the Habs with a 2 - 0 lead. momentum is starting to shift to MTL, but PIT can score quickly. MTL defense is a massive Achilles heel.

What an incredibly boring game.

Lightning dominated this series more than the 4-2 showing would indicate.

Happy for Shattenkirk and McDonagh. McDonagh really deserved one.

At least people can go out and celebrate in Florida

I agree with you, I’d have given it to Point.

Haha how many games did Stamkos play? A half of a game?

Are they allowed to kiss the cup or are there more dumbass rules?
I wonder  
pjcas18 : 9/28/2020 11:08 pm : link
how they're going to allow the players and coaches/staff spend time with the cup.

From what I've read it basically takes all summer to schedule each guy to get time with the cup.

side note, after the Kings beat the Rangers in 2014, Jonathan Quick brought the cup to my home town hockey rink (he played youth hockey and a couple years of high school before going to Avon Old Town in my town)

lol, Habs win the cup if Kreider doesn't run into Price, so sorry, but not sorry.
Do you think the Habs were just a better match-up against the Kings  
BrettNYG10 : 9/28/2020 11:17 pm : link
Than NYR was? Or do you think they were the better team and basically Price’s injury forced them to shelter the entire series?
Welp.

The 2020 hockey "season" is over. And it's obvious who the Conn Smythe Trophy winner is of the BBI hockey thread: Me.

I don't know if they were better than NYR with Price or not, but it would definitely be a better series with him.

I do think they matched up better with LAK.

My recollection was that MTL just looked gassed towards the end of that series.

Rangers could have won if they got a few 3rd period or OT breaks even though they were outplayed.

Subban and Markov were both playing over 26 min ppg.

they were gassed. I think the F's were ok.

Rough crowd.

Either way, I stand tall like Hedman and you're just a little annoying Gary Bettman in the photo.
Oops that came out wrong

definitely playoff thread MVP.

often times I felt like I was just having a conversation with myself until you came along.

now we have one week until the draft, so brush up on your prospect talk.
pj - are you starting a new thread for the draft  
Drewcon40 : 9/29/2020 9:31 am : link
Congratulations to Route 9 on your Conn Smythe. I was reading you guys throughout the playoffs so eyes were looking.

That was odd that Bettman was in the photo. They took the traditional photo later on.

Yes, I think so - should I start it now - a week out or wait?

You know me, I'll talk hockey all day, even to myself lol
Key dates  
Drewcon40 : 9/29/2020 9:38 am : link
Oct 6 and 7 is the draft
Oct 9 is free agency.

I'll leave it to you and Route 9 - after the draft, we can do a free agency one. There may be some trades starting to formulate pre-draft.
Damned if #27 doesn't look like Henrik here

The problem with starting it now is (for me at any rate) you have to start digging for a thread contributor's name to locate the thread.

On the other hand, NYG threads are prone to drying up in this climate, so maybe not as much of an issue... lulz )>:

Just sort by last post, I'm sure it will stay on or near the first page until next Tuesday, or if not, maybe someone will start a draft thread for the draft itself
