RusticlesDamn, Connors out fro two months at least
...and the oilers get another high draft pick
Two months? Shit I would be seriously surprised if he came back in four. Broken clavicle with plates...that's gonna take some serious physical therapy to get back to form.
levi....and the oilers get another high draft pick
hopefully Chia will will have the balls to trade the pick for a D-man that can move the puck. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to see that every team that has won the cup in the last 15 years has had at least one stud on defense.

Yeah, I wonder how his age would affect that, I think someone said it was the same surgery that Kane had last year, and he was out two months, but I think they rushed for the playoffs. I hope they don't rush McDavid, no point in making it worse, even if the unimaginable happens and they are fighting for a playoff spot. I really hope this doesn't scare him when he gets back and he continues to burn D-men and charge the net.
Shitty, because it was actually entertaining to watch the Oilers again.
Average games missed for someone with that injury is 23, high is about 35. Insanely, Bryce Salvador once broke it and missed two games. What a psycho.

Two games? What the actual fuck? I remember breaking mine and It got worse long before it got better. I didn't have surgery or plates or anything, but my god... I was out for at least 2 months before I was back to doing normal everyday shit, or sleeping on my left side... Eheath has been out about that long too since he broke his. Fuck that, man.
Montreal just keeps on winning. Definitely did not expect them to do his well early in the season.. Even when with Carey Price injured!
Gotta love when your backup goalie is light years better than your starter. Neuvirth is fucking awesome.

This needed to happen. It's their biggest weak point. If they can learn to play defensively with Mike Condon it really rounds out their weaknesses. In all honesty though it means sweet fuck all unless they can destroy Tampa.
Im so surprised with the devils this year. I expected far worse than 8-5-1 with 8-2-0 in the last 10 games. I hope they can keep it up and get a decent season out of a rebuild team!
Contenderup
Whoops I meant to post that somewhere else haha. I read on hfboards/twitter that the Condon is only doing well because of the system and that Price is a product of our "defensive" system. These are probably the same people who thought the team is nothing with Price, smh
Well I think this is the most balanced our team has been in years. Price being the best net minder in the league has pushed the team far but when you get to playoff time that's when you see the defensive holes that arise when Price gets overplayed and tired.
I think this years plays and roster reflects that. I think Mike Condon is just a result of Montreal having the best goal coaches in the world. Honestly this kind of reminds me of when Halak or Budaj were on the team. I think they just need to keep building Mike up and just have two great goalies on the team.
Vanek making plays.
Hey Contender, I'm curious, do you still hate MT now?

Posession stats are good, they are winning. Nothing to hate..at the moment
Duchene with another 2 goal night...Avs back on the rise?
Yup, just like I expected. Coach's challenge is ridiculous.
Kekambas.Yup, just like I expected. Coach's challenge is ridiculous.
This is a total shot in the dark, but do you play fantasy hockey under the name "Kekambas" and did you play my team Hotline Kling (formerly Blue Jean Committee) last week?
Who ever this beleskey shit wipe from Boston is can fuck off. That slash to the back of Zuckers knee in the last seconds is a joke. You know full well there is no padding there. I wish nothing but double knee injury on this fuck face.
oh man, i really want a detroit stadium series sweater. Colorado has some dope ones, too.
Also holy fuck when pulkkinen actually lands his slappers on target, they are fucking deadly.
Sums up the season so far

Great win last night, hopefully Price can heal up quickly

kronwall lays out a seriously heavy shoulder-to-shoulder hit without leaving his feet AND he scores the winner? must be a blue moon tonight.
B's take down the Rangers? Whaaat? Fuck yeah
Good lord that gif... Pacioretty is the captain of the all-punchable-face team. Marchand and Phaneuf are A's.

I'm quite OK with the new all-star format. I've really enjoyed the 3-3 OT so far. An entire 3-3 game will be great. So much room and chances for showboating and the scores will be stupid high. Can't wait to watch players like Ovi and Tarasenko work some magic.
This^^^^^
Honestly it's fun to watch the players just have fun with the game. Just shinny style.
Also to my fellow Habs fans looks like Price is out for minimum six weeks ( could be more for rehab, and just getting back in shape). Thoughts on this? Honestly I think it's a great thing. Condon is doing alright in the net so far, and time off from Price might actually help the team.
Fuck yeah Holtby, owned the shootout
That new kid on Detroit is nasty.
Titus69Fuck yeah Holtby, owned the shootoutThat new kid on Detroit is nasty.
Larkin or Pulkkinen? Both are insanely talented dudes. Its crazy Larkin is only 19, too. he puts up some of the most points on the team and is having one of the better rookie years. Pulcannon is a beast, too. His slappers are powerful when they are on target, he looks very brett hull-esque when he rips some shots from the point.

Larkin, dudes insanely good, its nuts hes 19
Fuckin Habs just threw it away at the end... again...
-emile-Kane is raping the league it's unreal
It's getting out of control. Kane is just raping everything he sees these days
Really hoping the Caps keep this lead, fuck the Rangers

Not anymore.
C_Thomps-12someone explain to me why the Ducks suck ass
they've over-achieved the past few seasons.
unsteady goaltending and bounces finally not going their way in the 3rd period are catching up with them. perry and getz can only carry a team so far.
inability to win one goal games this year is really killing them, it's all they did last year
Man Canadian teams have been brutal this year. So disappointing. And the last couple months definitely put to bed the question of if Montreal is still a good team without Price. Although last I checked they were the only canadian team in a playoff position.. By 1 point. So sad.
Jesus christ, I know at least one of you guys saw that Detroit and Philly game last night. Incredible game.
