That was awesome.

Rangers/Bruins game tonight felt like a game 6 playoff game.

3 games in and the Wings are down 4 defensemen.  Not the best way to start the season.

Better to start it that way instead of end it that way.

Depends.  With the shortened season, if you get behind early there might be no getting ahead.

Especially since that was their biggest weakness heading into the season.

Good win tonight over the Wild, however.

Good to see Bert back & I think this Brunner kid might work out okay.

i forgot about this thread.

it only took 2 years, but philly finally beat the rangers!

as they are playing like complete shit this season that will most likely be the highlight.


on another note, i'm wondering how bad the injury report will be after basically playing 5 games a week for 3 months.

This will definitely be a concern across the league as the season is typically spread out out over a longer time span.

hartnell is already out for the rest of the season with a broken foot. the sad part is it was listed at 4-8 weeks...stupid short season.

Don't the Flyers always get swept in the Finals?

maybe the playoffs should be shortened too......perhaps 1 and out like the NFL?

The NHL was actually talking about the opposite by adding more teams to the playoffs.
