It's to Hot in Dallas in Winter! - The NHL Thread

Right boys, Listen up. We’re still in this thing, we just need a quick one.
We need to work harder than them.
You know what’s hard work?! going through a divorce. She’s tryin to get all my money now. She can have half of it, I don’t give a shit. The other half… hard work mine!
Some guys on their team are fckin divorced, three guys there, fcking marriages are in the f*ckin toilet.

Sean William Scott’s greatest performance.

I love the assistant captain character, just parroting what the coach says LOL.

I didn’t think the ESPN deal would change anything besides in the U.S. but seems they have their hands on all the non prime time games as well. If you go through NHL site/ap on any game it sends you direct to ESPN. As long as you login with your provider details eg. Fox, Fetch or whatever supposedly you can catch every individual game live?

Yeah, I believe that’s right. I don’t want to pay for Fox just to get hockey, though. I only really watch Flames games and I’m using ‘NHL66’ - you’ll need to put on your eye patch but it’s had every Calgary game for about a year. Pretty sure it has most/all other games from around the NHL too.

I can’t believe all the Oilers hype. How anyone can think a roster that paper thin can do anything in the playoffs is beyond me. They have three good players FFS.

sportshub.stream is your friend, every game, every day.

Yeah it’s been quite good thus far, though I also find it switches between random sports on occasions.

The Cup is coming back to Southern Alberta.

Obviously a drop off is coming, but I can’t remember a season I’ve been more pessimistic about than this one. Great start.

Set to be a real frosty one in the Winter Classic!

At least they’re not forecasting a blizzard. Been a few Timberwolves matches where there have been tops of -8c and winds of 70kph in December…

Loving how the Canes have played this season. Their comeback against the Blue Jackets today was phenomenal to see.

I like the Canes but really wish they weren’t employing DeAngelo.

Wild are going all in this year after picking up the Flower in Goal with some bigger guys in front also. The Dead $14m cap space for the Parise and Suter buyouts will be killing them for the next couple of seasons so now makes sense to give it a good crack.

Anyone used Hockey Authentic before to purchase a jersey?

Well, this is embarrassing.

Nope, NHL jerseys are really really overpriced.

That’s true.

I’m also trying to distinguish between fanatics brand and the Adidas ones if anyone is well versed in that distinction.

They’re basically two different lines.

The Adidas ones are the “authentic” sweaters, same as the ones worn by players. This has things like fully embroidered logos, pant attachments on the inside, heavyweight but breathable fabric with mesh inserts, cut roomy to accommodate pads underneath, etc.

The fanatics ones are the replica sweaters, designed for casual fans. The logos are iron on, the fit is more tailored and the material is less technical.

Thanks mate, much appreciated.

They are steep but I think I’ll go with the Adidas ones. Wanted to get a Flames jersey with Gaudreau on the back but it’s not looking good right now.

Well, I’m glad I didn’t pull the trigger.

Columbus … the fuck?

Slipton - what’s going on in Chicago? Was trading Debrincat worth it?

Also, RIP to every buffet on the Vegas strip.
