I rather enjoyed watching Florida last night. They hit hard and actually finish checks. The Mctwits would have a fit dealing with that.

Its always been structured....it has never seen this many good players before though.

The reason for the fun stuff from the 80's was there was so many guys that just werent very good but also a LOT of guys that were tremendous.

Now, even the 7th dman on most teams can play. 4th liners that were mostly there to scrap and cause havoc, are now replaced with guys that were captains of their teams in junior...ie; really good players at every level.

Its just a different game now...entirely. Better in some ways but horribly worse in others as well.

Im with you though in that...the 80's was the by far the most interesting and intense the game ever was, which translates into entertaining.

Now its just not as entertaining as it once was, though its still a game of beauty to me.

Lol that was dumb.

Intensity is highly effective against the coil.

Just have to ramp it up.

I’m out. Dallas is asleep at the wheel in this one. Too much time off between series.

I hate everyone who was saying Dallas will easily beat Edmonton.

That's just crazy.

I'm just scoreboard watching, but I was a little concerned with Oettinger going into the series. He's so hot and cold.

Between this and the US election polls... 2024 is shaping up to be the very worst year of my life.

Some car wreck looking breakdowns.

Everything given up seems very preventable. This team needs to shake off those game 1 cobwebs.
