If only they had Mike Richards and Jeff Carter to pull them out of their 3-0 deficite.
Mike is a free agent....

One of my other faves was when the caller wondered aloud if nnr McavI would ask for a trade because the team was so crappy, and then the hosts forced the caller to try to have "insider" information about players who asked for a trade when they were on a crappy team. They then started to add qualifiers when the caller started to get his confidence back like "and they can't be UFA" and "so you don't really know". All the caller wanted to ask was if they felt that nnr would ask for a trade to a better team. it was pretty cringey radio.
all in all...par for the course!

So in this day and age where everyone is hell bent on terming GOATS or the Greatest Player of Planet Earth. Which is where the media pundits have landed on nnr mavI. Lets take a little snapshot of where he stacks up against the other GOAT of his generation Sidney Crosby.
Through his first 6 seasons Crosby had 215G 357A 572P in 412GP.
Through his first 6 seasons nnr mavI 195G 379A 574P in 407GP.
Very slight edge to nnr. Although Crosby had 20 more goals.
Now here's where it gets fun.
Over those first 6 seasons in the playoffs
Crosby has 30G 52A 82P in 62GP with a W-L Record of 38-24 and a stanley cup
nnr mavI 5G 7A 12P in 16GP* with a W-L Record of 7-9 and a bunch of tears
That says it all doesnt it?
*Not counting the playins because its dumb that the NHL even considers them.

Seems to me I heard of some guy in Buffalo wanting a trade.

Rob Brown tries to blame Pulljujaarvi to save McDavid as well. Just idiots.

I'm a little bit jealous of Jets fans right now. What a brilliant come back win. I remember what that feels like and have been chasing that dragon for what seems like ages now.
If they seal the deal, I'm jumping on the bandwagon.

The McDavid clearing attempt / turnover on the tying goal exemplifies his imbalance as a player. He's no doubt physically and mentally tired, but this is when making plays at blazing speed is irrelevant. But playing simple and essential hockey is not the Oiler way.

Button is such a joke, before the series started he gave the Jets no chance to beat EDM, now today he talks about EDM not being able to win in the playoffs and the Jets being a resilient team. He was also saying before the playoffs that MTL wouldn't win a game against TOR. He should stick to the draft.
