I don’t know how those occurred in real time.
Wings tying
Flyers pull goalie
I want an investigation!
I did win lunch from my Habs friend.
Two players with 100 assists this year is pretty cool.
We were at the game Monday when Kuch got number 99 in the first period.
Been fun to watch MacKinnon, Kuch and McDavid score like crazy people.
Confirmed that the wings scored 30 seconds of game time (which included at least 1 face off). The flyers execs had it on live in their box.
Flyers fucked the wings. They were already mathematically eliminated when they pulled the goalie in a tie game and gave up the empty netter to GIVE a playoff spot to the Caps.
Yes not much time, but someone needed to be in immediate communication with the bench. Shameful. They have an obligation to play it straight up once they are out.
Any particular reason they would want to screw the Wings over the Caps?
No. I’m blaming incompetence, lack of diligence.
No excuse in 2024 to not have instant knowledge of what is happening in Montreal.
It wasn’t malice.
So just Lemieux and Gretzky? Those guys are pretty good. Cool to see that this year. Especially with Matthews almost getting 70 goals this year, too. Lots of fun to watch.
199 points for Lemieux is fucking absurd.
There were more in the 80s
In fact of the top 13, 12 are Gretzky. 1st at 163 (‘85-86)
Mario’s 114 at #8 in ‘88-89
Bobby Orr was a man before time at #13, 102 assists in ‘70-71.
Gretzkys last >100 early 90s. Rest in the 80s.

ovechkin only 41 goals short of gretzky now. feels like next season he could be within single digits. unreal.
Always felt it was an impossible record to break. So crazy.
How old is he next year?
He’ll be 39 at the start of next season, but he looked like he was already in his 40s for much of this season.
I would guess that he fades before he gets through two more seasons.
A bit of sad news from the hockey world.

F the stars
The stars and Edmonton series been pretty good. Stars been outplayed most of it but tied it up.
I know this is a thoroughly uninspiring final, but any day that the Rangers fail to win another cup is a good day.
Lets go Oilers!
