NHL 2024 1/2 Season thread……

[Duffman]

Hesitated to start the thread as you Ranger Homers rule……yeah I’m talking to you SplitShot Bunker Dunker and Dales…..

Let’s get it rolling. As of now….. calling for Knights to repeat, I think Bedard is the shit, shocked Oilers suck, Love Torts to death and I want the Yotes to make it to the Cup finals so they can play a home game with a seating capacity of 5,000 people

Thanks Duff for giving in

At this moment of the season, I'm thrilled the Rangers are in 1st place, but each game turns into a nail biter even with bottom tiered teams... I think they're missing that RW pure goal scorer like we tried with Kane, Tarasenko, Vatrano, etc.... I would definitely like one of them back instead of Wheeler, but of course, we can't afford any of them without some really creative accounting.... and I am not a Tortarella fan and always hope the Flyers lose this season

I'm really thrilled Arizona is in a playoff spot at the moment and hope they can keep it up.... they deserve a chance after all these years.... And I'd like to see Chicago get a few more good players to help Bedard get them back to a playoff team again... my daughter lives right by Wrigley Stadium and we have a blast going to cubs games and I was thinking of seeing the Rangers/Blackhawks in February, but my luck I'll be stuck in a blizzard!!

So glad hockey starts again tonight cause TV sucks without hockey games!!

I would watch out for Dallas ( not football Duff) Stars . Some reason don't hate them like the cowgirls!
AS good as the Rangers, Bruins, Dallas. Vegas and Canucks are playing its still a pretty tight race in every conference / division!

OT has now become a puck possession game but seems to work for those that win in OT: Rangers ( sorry duff)

Split: Wheeler getting better / will never be fast but he was an elite player and we need experience.

Hopefully no hockey player steals Taylor Swift or Beyonce

Fuc$$ng Wheeler is the definition of a healthy scratch……..ask me how I know

Pretty solid defense first half then Rangers took it to them.... biggest ? is what's going on with Ovi...mental or physical, but something is wrong with him... never seen him play like this all these years.... age catching up?

Boy us Rangers got a lesson last night! As stated those early season wins add up and the conference East and West are tight with many teams at almost 1/2 season on a 100+ point seasons.
Hot Teams ( expected)
Bruins
Rangers
Hurricanes
Panthers
VGK
Avalanche
Dallas Stars

Unexpected:
Winnipeg
Kracken
Canucks
Oilers (all of a sudden with Rangers old AHL coach)
Isles

Otherwise great to see Devils sucking wind so far! No Devils fans on this site ?
Hope i dont eat those words ( last year LOL) But gotta like Jack Hughes.

Glad the Bruins are off the skids!!
