I have a bonus one for a three goal comeback in the third period in the playoffs if you want to see that video.:lolbron:.


:pacspit:


But as a Golden Knights fan, I forgot how :mjpls: a hockey fan group on Facebook is until after players from the Knights and the Stars kneeled .

Went off like a hornet's nest. With everything else going on with this country right now, how are you still triggered the most when players take a knee ? :mindblown:


It's like 2016 all over again and Kaep fukked their daughters too.

I feel like the NHL is the one sport out of the major four U.S. sports that a crowd can have the biggest impact. It's just not the same, but it's better than no playoff hockey.

Agreed, it plays a huge factor. At least home teams get the advantage with picking lines last for matchups

That is something not everyone seems to realize. That is definitely one of the biggest advantages of home ice. And, obviously that advantage will occur for home teams as it's not arena dependent.


There's fewer things better than hearing the Garden (MSG and TD), Bell Centre, etc having the roof blown off after a big goal or momentum change.:wow:.


I'll never forget being at game seven of the Bruins v.s. Canadiens in 2011 when the Bruins beat them in O.T. and went on to win the Stanley Cup.:banderas:.

A hot goalie negates anything.

Anyways, I asked the question the other day and didn't see any responses.

Prime Crosby or current McDavid?

Depends on what you're asking

More talented player with inferior linemates? 97
A proven playoff performer and winner? 87 only, for now

that's a tough one because I consider crosby prime before his injury

and before he got injured

41 games
32 goals
34 assists
:picard:

he was unstoppable
however mcdavid is crazy good id still have to go with prime crosby dude would have popped 70 plus

Prime Crosby. I think only Gretzky and Lemieux are better than Prime Crosby :leon:

I haven't gotten to see McDavid play as much as I have seen Crosby play (injuries aside).


GOATvechkin is my all-time favorite, with Jagr and Malkin up there as well.:wow:.



Goals>>>>>>>>>>>assists.

I remember when people were saying RNH had the best vision since Gretzky.:dead:.

lol
he's a good player, playing for the oilers under the previous regime stunted the growth of many players, dubnyk, gagner, nugent hopkins, hall, eberle, paavarji-svensson


just imagine if oilers never did that stupid taylor trade

draisatl, m cdavid, hall

:wow:
