Re: 25-26 Season Schedule

Really? Roy is sticking around!? Just to scout? I’m shocked about that.

Frankly I think he’d be absolutely atrocious at that job. When he worked for the Avs he went right up to Will Butcher, then still playing for DU and drafted earlier by Colorado, that there was no chance the team would sign him ...

Re: 2025-26 Detroit Red Wings Season

I just don't understand why he continued to commit to Patrick Kane when dude is more of a floater than ever, and quite possibly the worst defensive player in the league. That's a guy you try out for a year at best, then move on, he's just a fringe piece, a power play specialist at best.

I foresee ...

Cinquante buts pour Cole Caufield!

MacKinnon’s empty netters the only thing keeping him ahead at this point.

Re: Makar Money Bag: Avalanche 2025-2026 season

3-1 win against the Flames. Was actually 2-2 but lucky for the Avs that the Flames were WAY offside and won the challenge. Didn’t even take like a minute before they overturned that. I cannot believe the linesmen missed that. :laugh:

52 for MacKinnon, the chintziest empty-netter ever, a slight ...

Re: Makar Money Bag: Avalanche 2025-2026 season

Avs manage to get a bit of revenge on the Blues on the 2nd half of this weird home-and-home series, winning 3-1. Goals from Necas and two from Nichushkin, including an absolutely NASTY between-the-legs deke shorthanded.

Yes, you read that right, the Avs actually SCORED a shorthanded goal for once ...

Re: The 2025-26 NHL Coaching Watch

Keeping up with the news after Roy’s sacking, the Devils went ahead and sent Tom Fitzgerald packing.

Also, Seattle Kraken announce that President of Hockey Operations Ron Francis is stepping down after this year.

Re: Makar Money Bag: Avalanche 2025-2026 season

Oh, some congratulations are in order for Brent Burns, who notched his 1,000th consecutive game, and PARKER KELLY who hit 20 goals for the first time in his NHL career. Previous high was…8. Phenomenal pickup for the Avs. Just hope he holds a little better than Logan O’Connor.

Have you seen him skate lately? Its just not there and he skates like his ankle is bothering him again. UBI.... :hrm:


Nichushkin is the epitome of enigmatic. I can’t ever tell if dude is hurt or just not engaged. When he’s at his best he’s trucking around the ice, winning every single puck ...

Avs turn right around again and shit the bed against the St. Louis Blues. Yes, the Blues have been surging HARD since the calendar turned, but the Avs should have taken care of those jokers, even on the 2nd half of a back-to-back.

Nichushkin sat this one out with a UBI along with Makar and Roy. He ...

Re: The Sens are Blowing It

Naturally they win their next game against the East-leading Buffalo Sabres.

Tkachuk also got fined for reaching over the boards and slashing a guy. That kind of shit should land a guy at least a couple games.

Re: Makar Money Bag: Avalanche 2025-2026 season

What irks me is once again, Jared Bednar makes bad decisions earlier in the season that bite everyone in the ass later. And once again, it comes back to the power play. All year long with the power play flailing and bottoming out, he doesn't make any substantial changes. 2nd unit barely comes out ...

Re: Jersey or sweater?

I actually wish they'd ditch all this "new tech". The hockey sweater that remained pretty much unchanged from around the 70s to the early 00s was perfectly fine. Making jersey/sweater purchases now is a giant pain in the ass, and they're simply not as comfortable or fit nearly as well.

Re: Jersey or sweater?

I switch between the two all the time. I once owned a vintage Boston Bruins sweater and it really was a sweater.

I prefer sweater to jersey because the latter term isn't unique to hockey.
