Avs game tonight reminded me that I haven't seen an NHL thread for this year.
Any thoughts on the teams that have played so far?

DeebieSkeebiesSharks/Knights is turning into such a chippy rivalry, both teams kinda have each others number and especially san jose with that unreal comeback in the playoffs last year. Some good hockey being played so far in the first week of the season.
For sure. Kind of a bummer that Kane was suspended for the opener, I wanted to see some on-ice beef with Reaves

bread_birdCanadiens comeback last night was unreal
didn't help Torontos case at all last night having guys like Kapanen, Tavares, and even Matthews whiffing it on some prime opportunities to win it. Crazy game though.
Fuuuck I hope Mantha keeps it up this year, He had some great plays and awesome setups for goals last night, that Bertuzzi one-timer was fuckin sweet. Lets go boys.

DeebieSkeebiesAnthony fuckin Mantha....guy had a career-worst +/- last season and overall just tough sledding the entire year until the last portion of the season....comes out swinging this season with 5 goals in two games. He's gonna be a fuckin beast this year if he keeps it up.
I tuned in right before his 4th goal... what a beaut

DeebieSkeebiesSuch a pretty setup and tee-off too. He can rip shots.Hoping they can keep up some of the magic, My family surprised me with tickets to the Wings/Canucks game on my birthday weekend so that'll be sweet as fuuuck.

BoostMaGWent to the wild game on Saturday against the Kings, Quick can’t follow the puck anymore and everyone from LA seemed slow, wilds backup goalie made some good saves. Wild beat LA 5-1
Their core is just old now, they signed some pretty bad contracts after their cup wins and now those players are aged quite a bit. Quick cant really do much with dogshit Defending in front of him

DeebieSkeebiesBabcock gets fired by a former player he coached....Shanny must have really fucking hated playing for the guy, he was waiting for that one lol.
the marner drama that is coming out is a bad look too. leafs fans that wanted babcock fired earlier this year are starting to sound less insane.

lol yeah asking a rookie to name off the best and worst players and then getting mad at him is just some weird "i have power over you" bullshit that babcock apparently liked to flex hard on people throughout his career. And yeah, I think like 90% of the team was relieved to see him go.
Hes a good coach but yeah, he ran those lines in a super shitty way. Like hes always been known to give plugs more icetime over star players and high performing lines
BdoobzThe leafs are an absolute train wreck

cyphersseattle is dropping their "brand identity" tomorrow morning. which i assume means name, colors, etc.any bets on what the name will be? i'm cool with anything other than kraken
the Kraken seems interesting, its selling the most merch ever out of any expansion team so thats cool to see i guess.
my sisters has a really close friend from childhood whose dad is the biggest wings fan ever and he just sold his house to Todd Bertuzzi this weekend lol, what a trip

Haha I know I know. Definitely not stoked on the name but at least the jerseys are sick. As long as there's a place to watch my Avs in Seattle I'm not really worried about what the home team is wearing.

BdoobzStoked just to have hockey back on TV. Who you guys got taking the cup through this format?
Honestly idk man, those first games yesterday were high-scoring and honestly had dogshit reffing so we'll see, it can go either way when its like that. Its taking a minute for teams to settle in but its honestly great hockey being played right now, No crowds for the playoffs suck but its interesting seeing all the players mesh with their linemates and make good plays.
Tkachuck fucked up big time on Schieffle, obviously he went in to make that play along the boards but yeah he could have backed off a little bit as he went in. That was a nasty-looking injury.

I feel like there are so many factors this time around. Based on the pre-tournament games some of the top 8 looked dead in the water.
I wonder what would've happened to Tkachuk if this was 90's hockey. It would've been a lot uglier than 10 second wrestle. Hopefully Scheifele can bounce back whenever he returns, shitty situation for sure.
