GO AVS!!! Though I was unable to watch, nice way to start with a win over the Wild.

Re: NHL '18-'19 Season Thread
 

Let's Go Hawks!

Come Winnipeg needs another great year

Re: NHL '18-'19 Season Thread

One of the nicest men I have ever met.

Re: NHL '18-'19 Season Thread
 

AVS can lose 80 at worst!!! Nice start by MacK and nice start by JTC.

Re: NHL '18-'19 Season Thread
 

Very cool, E.J.!

Hawks win second OT game in a row. Toews with his first hat trick in 5 seasons. Good start, but still a lot of gaps to fill.....

Re: NHL '18-'19 Season Thread
 

The MacKinnon-Landeskog-Rantanen line is really good. GO AVS!

Re: NHL '18-'19 Season Thread
 

Abs deserved to lose that.... After a great 1st, looked like junk the second 2. Still had a lead late in the 3rd....give up tying goal super late and lose in OT. Least they got a point. Ugh

Re: NHL '18-'19 Season Thread
 

Chicago Blackhawks are the first team in NHL history to have their first 5 regular season games all go to OT.

Re: NHL '18-'19 Season Thread
 

How about David Pastrnak 7 goals in 5 games.
Bostons top line of Bergeron,Marchand, and Pasta best in line the NHL:)

Re: NHL '18-'19 Season Thread
 

They are definitely on fire. 13 goals in 5 games. Jonathan Toews - Alex DeBrincat - Dominick Kahun (who?) are right behind them with 12 in 5 games.

Re: NHL '18-'19 Season Thread
 

On this years oilers

McDavid is magic, then you have to sit impatiently through a few minutes of whatever waiting for him to take another shift.

Re: NHL '18-'19 Season Thread
 

Total one man show, Derrek? It's a shame, with Draisatl and Nugent-Hopkins I figured they might be a triple threat down the middle....

Re: NHL '18-'19 Season Thread
 

Well ... it isn’t all bad ... in a way ... they remind me of the ‘79 ‘80 oilers .

Derrek

Re: NHL '18-'19 Season Thread
 

And we both know what started a couple years after that.... :wnr

Re: NHL '18-'19 Season Thread
 

Heading to Toronto for 4 days the end of November, was hoping to catch a game. Unfortunately, the play and leave the day before we get there. Bad timing.

Re: NHL '18-'19 Season Thread
 

Solid win over the Devils, for the AVS tonight.

Need to start liking the Devils, my son has been doing some analytics for them for the past few months.

Re: NHL '18-'19 Season Thread
 

EJ

Here’s one for you ... about the devils

A few years ago ... oilers played the devils ... on Halloween ... a player on the oilers named “Satan”

Re: NHL '18-'19 Season Thread
 

Good ole Miroslav. Had one of his game worn jerseys when I used to collect those.

Hawks are stinking the joint up, only reasons they won Saturday and didn't get crushed even worse on Sunday were Ward and Crawford.

See what they can do tonight against Josh Manson and the Quackers.

Re: NHL '18-'19 Season Thread
 

Tom, how do you feel about Quin being let go?

Re: NHL '18-'19 Season Thread
 

He lost the teams' ear, E.J.. I don't know if can fix this season, but it was time. I'll always love Joel for bringing the first (and second, and third) Cups in my lifetime to Chicago.

Re: NHL '18-'19 Season Thread
 

Agreed, I think he is a great coach but in the last 6 months he just didnt seem to have the same command as far as the front office working with him and I think that shows on the ice.

Re: NHL '18-'19 Season Thread
 

Big win for the AVS over the Preds in the dads game!

Re: NHL '18-'19 Season Thread
 

Nice win(B2B) over Pens, that makes 6 straight. Two wins over solid clubs, Rat,Lan,Mac line continues to roll.

Re: NHL '18-'19 Season Thread
 

Pittsburgh getting butt whopped again

Re: NHL '18-'19 Season Thread
 

They look really good, E.J.!

Re: NHL '18-'19 Season Thread
 

....and just like that(assuming stays same), AVS drop out of playoff position. Not sure what the answer is, but Bedner needs to figure it out. Huge dump last bit....I’m at a loss. Trade Berrie for a guy that can play D, as opposed to give up the puck in the zone, but score goals? Not sure why Z is scratched....

Re: NHL '18-'19 Season Thread
 

Frustrating times....damn that bouncing puck for Mac....

Re: NHL '18-'19 Season Thread
 

I always listen to these AVS honks(my tv feed) no, that wasn’t a great push in the 3rd, it was a loss and they are going the wrong way. (I know, I’m frustrated)

Re: NHL '18-'19 Season Thread
 

It was an exciting game, but the outcome must be frustrating to an Avs fan, E.J.

Frustrating for a guy who owns Landeskog in his fantasy league too.

And don't even get me started on the Hawks.... :hn

Re: NHL '18-'19 Season Thread
 

Enemy when it hurts, they come out and dump. Every win matters, but some matter more than others. My frustration level has tilted.

Re: NHL '18-'19 Season Thread
 

I don't know what is up with the Avs, E.J., that top line has cooled a bit and their depth scoring is an issue. Need a second line player before the trade deadline.

Look at the bright side...you could be a Hawks fan this season. ;) :r

Re: NHL '18-'19 Season Thread
 

My granddaughter believes in unicorns .

I cheer for the oilers .

Re: NHL '18-'19 Season Thread
 

My Sabres are fighting for that wild card in the East.

Re: NHL '18-'19 Season Thread
 

Both our teams have struggled mightily, yet both are only 3 points out of the Wild Card spot in the snail's race that is the West.

I would be most concerned about goaltending, and they could certainly use Mittelstat to take it to the next level.

Re: NHL '18-'19 Season Thread
 

How about my Preds? :tu

Re: NHL '18-'19 Season Thread
 

Tom

I was gonna ask you something last night ... but wellll .

Who are the hawks with three Stanley cups ???

Derrek

Re: NHL '18-'19 Season Thread
 

They are excellent....I predict winner of the Preds and Jets series will win the West.

But I also predict the Jets will beat the Preds. ;s

Patrick Kane
Jonathan Toews
Patrick Sharp
Marion Hossa
Duncan Keith
Brent Seabrook
Niklas Hjalmarsson

I miss you, Buddy, am I going to have to come to Alberta if I want to see you?

Re: NHL '18-'19 Season Thread
 

Flyers may have finally found the solution to their goalie woes in Hart. Shame the season started as terribly as it did.

Going for nine in a row tonight!

Re: NHL '18-'19 Season Thread
 

It's been fun watching their run, be crazy if they came back all this way for a playoff spot. Hope Hart is the real deal for you guys and not another flash in the pan.

Hawks have won 5 straight and are only 3 points out...but with a handful of teams to pass, they probably need to win 20 of their last 29 to even have a chance. Crawford coming back would help.

Re: NHL '18-'19 Season Thread
 

Hawks going for their 7th win in a row this afternoon. Trying to tease me by getting back into the wild card discussion is NOT COOL! :D :r

Re: NHL '18-'19 Season Thread
 

They're still taunting me. :ih

Re: NHL '18-'19 Season Thread
 

You can relax Tom, The Bruins brought the Hawks back down to earth last night ;s

Re: NHL '18-'19 Season Thread
 

Never know with these boys... Big win tonight. Go AVS!

Re: NHL '18-'19 Season Thread
 

Hawks were in the 2nd wild card spot for about an hour until the Avs won. That's ok, I thought they were done 6 weeks ago. As one of the Dumber Bros. said, "So you're saying there's a chance". :r

Re: NHL '18-'19 Season Thread
 

7 straight for the Bruins:tu

Re: NHL '18-'19 Season Thread
 

Bruins sail through February without a regulation time loss.
Last time they done that was the cup year :D
