@TG_Dilipan @VoiceIslanderFn @NHLMedia “Celebrini couldn’t even get his team into the playoffs, what a bum! Pavel Dorofeyev was clearly a much better player this season because he led his team to the playoffs!!111!”

@uranium54321 @VoiceIslanderFn @NHLMedia 'Just got eliminated' vs '6th best team in the NHL'. There are levels to this bro.

THE ROOKIE RACE IS CLOSING IN 🏃 #NHLAwards
Will Matthew Schaefer walk away with the Calder Trophy this year? 👀

@TG_Dilipan @VoiceIslanderFn @NHLMedia Schaefer is one of the main reasons (along with Sorokin) they just got eliminated in game 81 instead of having like 79 points right now
English
@VoiceIslanderFn @NHLMedia Dobes isn't even on the list. 29 wins, starting goalie, on a top-6 team. Schaefer's team just got eliminated.
English
@Gdog75168491 @AlexDiNata99077 @habsnation51 @NHLMedia @NHL You realize playing 24 mins a night as an 18 year old rookie and actually winning those minutes despite being on a shit team is a point in favor of Schaefer right?
English
@AlexDiNata99077 @habsnation51 @NHLMedia @NHL Give demidov 19 mins of ice a game its not close ...demi had like 16 mins of ice time to Schaefers 24
English
@puckempire Maybe Werenski shouldn’t be a complete defensive liability
English
Skibidi rizz Ohio 💔
For the sixth straight season, the Columbus Blue Jackets will not participate in the NHL's playoffs.
English
@dylanam9779 @PuckReportNHL Yeah I know, he had the all time record for most games played w/o making the playoffs before that tho so he’s kind of the figurehead for that kind of record
English
Rasmus Ristolainen has been in the NHL for 13 seasons. He’s played 820 games. He’s been in endless trade rumors for as long as you can remember. And now, at age 31, he’s finally going to the Stanley Cup Playoffs for the first time in his career. #LetsGoFlyers
English
@kckrebs37 @TopDownHockey Not really, there are a ton of examples of good goalies on terrible teams (like Cooley, Knight, Shesterkin, and Sorokin this year) and bad goaltending on teams with good defenses (Canes basically every year)
English
@TopDownHockey Goalies are products of their environments much more than anything else.
English
#LetsGoFlyers are headed to the Stanley Cup Playoffs.
Dan Vladar, who has been great all year and made the final save in the shootout, is one of the big reasons why.
Shown below is his goalie card from before this season.
You gotta love goalies.
English
@datadomNY @JFreshHockey He was. As for who he’s giving the crown to I think it’s technically Troy Terry bc the Ducks haven’t clinched yet, but the real answer is Mario Ferraro bc the Ducks have like a 95% chance of making the playoffs
English
@JFreshHockey Was he the new Jeff Skinner? If so, who is he handing the crown to?
English
@JFreshHockey That’s like the modern Capitals except crazier
English
the way that 2004 Bolts team was built was insane. signed St. Louis to a league min. drafted Richards 3rd round bc the scouting staff only had the budget to watch rimouski. drafted Kubina 7th round. traded a 5th for Dan Boyle. underpay in trades for Modin, Stillman, Khabibulin
English
actually TB notoriously fucked up that 1998-2000 stretch other than Lecavalier in 98
'99: 1st ovr but traded it and got Cloutier, a '00 1st (Nikita Alexeev), and three 3rds
'00: 5th ovr, traded for Kevin Weekes, Kristian Kudroc, and a 2nd
'01: 3rd ovr Alexander Svitov
SnubbedBedsy98@LandonMcClell15
@JFreshHockey A difference with this stat is the lightning have a professional scouting staff that doesnt consist with a bunch of idiots. Drafting the best person available isnt what KD has ever done for the majority of his top picks.
English
@wax743 @JFreshHockey It would be hilarious if the VGK or Oilers win the cup after being in the pillow fight all year
English
@JFreshHockey Probably won't happen, but we live in a world where DET could end up having more overall points than the 3rd Metropolitan team and miss the playoffs. This system is just bad from all angles.
English
dumb narrative. the Penguins have those loser points because they went 3-10 in the gimmick shootout. In a 3-2-1-0 system OR the pre-loser point system they still rank ahead of all three of those teams
Tom Wilson is the goat@tomwilsondagoat
The Islanders, Capitals and Devils all have more win than the Penguins and Flyers but are going to miss the playoffs because they didn’t get enough loser points
English
@GregBeijer @JFreshHockey @HilsNoglander There are players like Casey Mittelstadt who got worse after leaving the Sabres for the Avs and Granlund who got worse after leaving the Sharks for the Stars. Changing coaches can make a player better/worse regardless of whether the team’s better
English
@JFreshHockey @HilsNoglander Wouldn’t call it a myth, there are plenty of supporting examples. Drouin resurgence with Colorado, Monahan with Columbus. Could be fit or team structure, but I do imagine there is a fair correlation between players playing better on better teams overall.
English
great point, for example you can see here how Kyrou's numbers are bad because he plays for the Blues
X - WE TALK HOCKEY@wetalkhockeyy
I don’t fuck with analytics because of shit like this. Like if you follow the Habs, this is nothing crazy. You put a talented player on a shitty team, obviously his numbers are gonna look trash. Kyrou has 43 points this year. He’d be a PPG in Pittsburgh easily
English
@HollowAfro @_deceptionfalls Okami is the first thing that came to mind for me
English
@_deceptionfalls Odin Sphere and Okami are the best examples.
English
@WildcatOil @chrispronger Giveaways aren’t tracked well enough to use for comparison anyway but I agree they’re an overblown problem. Bouchard is just worse defensively in general in a way overall team defense doesn’t fully account for
English
@chrispronger The past that boggles my mind is that we say Dahlin is stallar defensively (I'm not saying he's not) but then people turn around and say Bouchard is no good and cite his turnovers.
When guys like Dahlin and Werenski turn it over a a higher rate...
English
So many incredible defenseman in the NHL right now. Sometimes it is hard to differentiate but my choice is Rasmus Dahlin for the Norris. He is stellar at both ends of the rink and continues to evolve and improve. Well rounded superstar! #sabrehood
Sportsnet@Sportsnet
The Hockey Night in Canada panel argues their case for which defenceman deserves to win the Norris Trophy 👀🏆
English
@JFreshHockey I hate how stupid and how right this take is at the same time
English
retiring 99 league-wide is cool because it's crazy that the best player ever wore the highest number possible. if gretzky wore literally any other number it would be stupid
x.com/m_schettig/sta…
Michael Schettig@m_schettig
@JFreshHockey I personally think it's silly that 99 is retired league wide. Doing it for 87 and 8 would be absolutely ridiculous
English
@OleSuperSub @JFreshHockey I think the Dallas Cowboys do that with #88 as well, kinda like that idea. Only thing is it may be hard to tell when a player will be good enough to live up to the number
English
@JFreshHockey Just retire the name. Keep the numbers. Man Utd has a line of greats who wore 7. The names go up but the numbers live on.

@2003nicko @Godel_number @JFreshHockey @NicolasGen29629 1 April OBJECTIVELY isn’t more important than October, you get the same amount of points for winning in October as you do in April
2 he’s good on the power play, I’m saying McDrai PP is more than enough to account for a 10 point difference from Werenski considering less 5on5 pts
English
@uranium54321 @Godel_number @JFreshHockey @NicolasGen29629 1. Perhaps, but April is way more important than October. Context matters
2. Watch the Oilers PP. It relies on all 5. Bouch is a ginormous part of the PP and yes he’d still be putting up stupid numbers without them. Advanced stats prove it
English
@2003nicko @Godel_number @JFreshHockey @NicolasGen29629 3. I’m not saying he doesn’t score clutch goals, I’m saying it’s a dumbass argument to try to act like Werenski isn’t clutch
English
@uranium54321 @Godel_number @JFreshHockey @NicolasGen29629 1. It’s for the whole year, ghosting when your team is fighting for their season is a major knock
2. This is a 2021 ass Oilers argument. It was stupid then and is stupid now.
3. You have not watched Bouch if you think he doesn’t score a ton clutch goals. They both do
