    Is there a list somewhere you think? I'd love to see and go back through. Also, an excuse to reminisce when my team wasn't dog shit. No salary cap era were the days :)

    I hope he baits him into a fight and doesn’t drop his gloves and Calgary score on the power play

    Halak just made a save for the ages in the shootout. Video incoming

    don’t think it was going in.

    his save at the end of OT was ridiculous though.

    not seen in the video is he went all the way back to his own goal line and skated like full speed up to the puck.

    Quick Wings update I saw elsewhere

    It is already mathematically impossible for the Wings to reach 100 points.

    Signing a 32 year old to a 5 year 9+AAV contract doesn’t seem ideal.

    That’s a reward contract. Will they do the same with Holtby?

    Backstrom will probably age well because of his elite hockey sense. I mean Zetterberg was still a 60 point guy the last few years of his deal, with a bad back and almost no additional help. I feel like those guys are similar with how they see the game.

    Dont have the space plus Samsonov is already better, he’s gone. Not even sure he’s the playoff starter either

    Can confirm this. He would've loved to stay in Tampa but once Stamkos unexpectedly re-signed with the Lightning it just wasn't possible.

    this may be a really dumb comment because my brain is barely functioning today, but if league average save % is .909 wouldn't league average shooting % be 9.1?

    I guess empty netters would skew it a little bit, but not materially.

    it's weird the info I found listed a different save percentage but the method worked at least.

    Anyway, the reason I asked was my coworker was trying to needle me saying Jaden Schwartz sucks and he’d rather have Saad. I pointed out he was monumentally unlucky last year, and he’s rebounded this year

    last year sh% - 6
    this year sh% - 14.8


    Also reminded me of the Saad/Oshie debates a few years ago. Good times

    Was super smart of Backstrom(negotiated it himself) using his cap hit % from his first contract as this 1 is the exact same

    Considering new information that suggests 100% of Boston sports teams cheat, the Blues Stanley Cup is just that more impressive. :twocents:
