Pretty sure the Panthers are going to be super active, for better or worse.

This playoffs was bananas and I loved every second of it. Congrats to the Caps.

I’m surprised. Canada got what they wanted for once.

Tavares and Matthews on the same team :0

i saw a dude walking around maple leaf square with a brand new leafs tavares jersey at 2:00 this afternoon. the hype train has already barreled out of the station.

Guess Tavares has no interest in ever winning a Cup.

As an Islander fan, I'm disappointed that JT has signed with Toronto, but I can definitely understand it. The Islanders are a franchise that has been plagued with uncertainty for decades now. They've made improvements to the team where it looks like they're going to advance to the next level, but then falter and never recover. The Islanders (and their fans) need to move on and attempt to right the ship. Don't blame JT. Blame Bettman and all of those assholes who thought moving the team to Brooklyn was a good idea.

Gary Bettman: somehow blamed for Garth Snow and an awfully managed franchise.

Seriously, I get its fun to joke, but when will Bettman be given the credit he deserves? He’s a good commissioner.

Honestly, Im just as shocked as the rest of you.

Its like I’ve stumbled into a parallel universe where the Leafs are actually good.

bettman is a double decker turd sandwich of a slimy lawyer but he's really done well by the game of hockey. it's hilarious that he gets booed every time he takes a mic in front of hockey fans but tbh the league wouldn't be what it is without him.

I'm not blaming Bettman for the Isles' mismanagement. I'm blaming him for believing (along with Isles executives) that Barclays was a suitable arena for hockey. It's a complicated mess. The Isles needed a new arena, but Barclays wasn't the answer. And a new arena might not be built for another few years. I don't blame JT for leaving. Too much instability and uncertainty in the Isles organization.

I would like for the Flyers to trade for Erik Karlsson.

It’s 2015 already?

Happy New year!

I love this thread title

Pre Season hockey > no hockey

 

[BoMac]

I wonder what Peef is up to these days...

 

[bono_212]

I'm just going to assume that it's this until I hear otherwise.

 

[Hewson]

First Headache in DC, now Peef in Philly, Interference is lousy with members who moonlight as NHL mascots.

 

[elevated_u2_fan]

That is the creepiest fucking thing I have seen in a long time.

 

[bono_212]

I hear that it's actually scarier in motion, as those are googly eyes.

 

[elevated_u2_fan]

Jeebus!

 

[bono_212]

I can't breath, I'm laughing so hard, but I'm at work, so I'm trying to keep it down.

So that’s what a flyer is?

that thing is what happens when the phillie phanatic is born instead across the river in new jersey.

 

[Hewson]

Damn googly eyes.

The biggest news in the NHL is... the Flyers' mascot? That thing is hideous/hilarious. I don't know if its the worst mascot ever, but its gotta be up there.
