The NHL season is a tale of two insufferable fan bases from very different teams. One celebrates every meaningless victory only to have thier hopes dashed come April. The other has an inflated sense of superiority and despite recent success receives little to no respect.
Can you guess the teams?

Are those the number of games and points they've put up divided by month for their entire career or what? Not exactly a very clear post.Foreign Jackass said:

They're lotto numbers obviously.
Good luck on Lotto 649 this month, Lupul and Kessel!!!

He was chuffed about being a healthy scratch for a couple of the first few games. I think it was Gardiner that stole his spot.
I read it on GAF, so who knows whether its true or not.

Pens Health Watch: Letang was marked as a game-time decision earlier this week (I have no idea what the injury is) and Picard was just called up this morning, meaning Letang is probably out tonight.
It's not funny anymore. It's not. Stop this shit. I can't take any more of this.

This isn't necessarily a bad thing. I remember Richards and Carter's first year up the Flyers were essentially playing with the Phantoms roster. That team was pretty awful but it setup a great team the next year. You guys will spend the first half developing new guys then probably go on a tear and kill it in the second half with everyone back in. I absolutely HATE admitting this, but it is what I expect to happen.

You mean to tell me they will win tonight, rejoice!!!!
I won't even be here for the game again, I have to stream it if I want to watch it, and even then I really don't know if I should as I don't want to be in a bad mood walking home again like after last game.
Horton says he's still not 100% after returning from his concussion in the playoffs last year. He's looked a little slow to react on the ice but says he doesn't have any PCS symptoms.

Picard won't develop into anything, he's been called up before, he's garbage. We have three AHL D-men who have real potential and will probably develop and could benefit from some time on the main squad and guess what? All three are injured. One of them wasn't injured at the beginning of the season and, of course, he broke his wrist in the first game he got called up for.
If we get healthy, we'll have a sick team and we'll be motivated. The wait for that to happen though just gets longer and longer. Orpik is finally back? Michalek breaks his hand, out for 4-6 weeks. Malkin is back consistently? Staal goes down again. Jeffrey finally healthy after half a year? Kennedy gets a concussion out of nowhere. While I believe a lot of these guys will be healthy by the end of November, it just gets ludicrous at some point.

You added this years stats to their career totals which skews both of their career October Stats. Which basically makes your point useless. If you look at Kessels stats without this year it basically shows him to be pretty consistent month to month.

Tanking for the 1 spot in the draft!
I really hope they can actually win tonight, I really do, though I have been hoping for the last few games now and look how that has turned out
Rough times for this Sabres lineup. I'm a little shocked at how poorly they're playing in just about every facet of the game.
Leino is having a rough time fitting in. I really hope he finds his comfort zone soon, because the deal will look worse and worse the further he goes into unproduction. There's no question the team overpaid for him, and I'm reserving judgment for another couple months, but so far I'm not impressed with his play.
The defense has been playing awful, and it doesn't help that Miller doesn't seem to have his head screwed on straight when they do screw something up. I'm not a supporter of the Miller Vs Enroth debate -- Miller is the #1 goalie, undisputed -- but his current level of play isn't going to quiet unrest from the fans. If this gets into his head I truly worry for his psyche this season.
The offense is playing like a Lindy Ruff offense typically does. We'd love to see more production but we probably never will. That means the D and the goaltending need to be better.
I'm getting just a little worried, but 6-5 isn't awful. Here's hoping they turn it around.

Rinne signs extension with Nashville - 7 years, 49m
So Rinne's now the highest paid goalie in the league? Pretty much inevitable that one of Weber or Suter walk on July 1st, hey (if they're not traded first.)
Canucks are gonna be nuts next year after they sign Weber and Parise. Cause, you know, they're both coming to Vancouver, for sure.

Holy shit. Rinne got paid.
Does this mean Nashville's going to start spending money now?

I think they have to. Suter and Weber will both probably be looking for the same amount of money Rinne got, even if they spent to cap, Preds can't afford to do that. They need some of that money to build up their offense.bonesmccoy said:
Weber is THE player to build a team around, but they burned him during the offseason and I don't know how happy he'd be staying in Nashville. He'd also garner the most return in a trade.
Suter will probably be more willing to stay, but he's not as good as Weber and won't be as big of a franchise figure. Trading him would garner a smaller return though, but still massive.
Also, teams in the Central division can probably kiss goodbye to any chance of getting one of these defenseman. If the Preds really want to start winning now, trading a top NHL defenseman to one of their divisional rivals would be an awfully stupid way to go about it.
Finally, if the Canucks want him, they're going to have to be prepared to say goodbye to Edler/Bieksa and Hodgson/Jensen plus more.

True. I still lean toward them doing the kind of signing we see bubble MLB teams do: 3 high performance expensive players, re-sign 2.

That really does seem like a move the Flyers would make. How long is left on Prongers contract?
