Hawks committing to the tank with this sad sack effort against an equally bad Sharks. Can't really expose a bad goalie if you never put any offensive pressure.

They might trade him in December, because I don't think they can win a single game the rest of the month. Their schedule is utterly brutal. Vancouver on Thursday could be the only winnable game for at least two weeks.

The Islanders looked alarmingly bad at the end of that game.

Pittsburgh looked so much better in OT especially.

This Leafs victory brought to you by Cody Eakin committing the worst play in hockey... when you break your stick in the defensive zone and, rather than spend 10 seconds going to the bench to get a new stick, you spend a minute and 30 in your own zone completely ineffective and basically giving them a 5-on-3.

Benched Dylan Strome in lieu of recently-hot Hischier, planning to drop Strome again, and he goes and gets 3 assists with 2 on the PP.

Damn you and your spastic team Shadow Dino! Now I can't drop this guy again and watch him get goose-eggs the next 5 games!!

Well, as long as Colliton somehow gets a clue and keeps Strome with DeBrincat and Kane, Strome shouldn't always be putting up 0 points. Maybe.

Yet another blown 2-0 lead by the Blackhawks because of a dogshit defense. At least Gustafsson is playing a tad better lately.

Nice! Also nice to see the Leafs lose, I know davidponte and I need a lot more of that... though this is probably hand-waved away as the 2nd half of a back to back on the road with their backup goalie bombing early. Lehner trade value increasing??

Wow end of an era. As much as Cherry was a dinosaur who should have been gone ages ago, it's still sorta sad or surreal that he won't be on TV on Saturday night. He has been on all my life.

But also he so needed to go. Can't just write him off as racist old grandpa anymore.

Fun stat I noticed, since I was doubting starting Kuemper (2nd of a road back-to-back tonight), did, and had no regrets.

Both last night and tonight, the Coyotes:
-Had road games against top teams (Capitals and Blues)
-Both games went to shootouts
-In both shootouts, the Blues and Caps shooters missed; and the Coyotes shooters both scored
-The Coyotes shooters were the same & in the same order both nights (Nick Schmaltz first, Conor Garland second)

Only difference being Raanta last night, Kuemper tonight. Just thought that was funny. Kuemper is so damn good.

So...I keep looking up the Fenton trades point wise, and it's really weird in retrospect.

Granlund (3-2=5) v. Fiala (3-3=6)
Nino (2-5=7) v. Rask (1-2=3)
Coyle (2-5=7) v. Donato (1-1=2)

It's not any wonder the Wild are worse. But unless I'm missing some sort of eye test, none of the former players are lighting shit up either like you'd kinda expect. I suppose it's a good thing they got Fenton out of dodge quickly, but it's pretty sad to find out these "beloved favorites" in the "young core" were just crap. I guess I should be grateful a shitty GM did the one thing the Wild needed: uncork the bottle and let the shit run free. Leipold certainly kept hyping up the vision, but it's certainly biting them in the ass now, and very hard.

Granlund/Fiala is one of those trades that somehow, both teams lost. Each player is worse on their new team and both teams are worse for having made the deal.

Coyle/Donato is the bad one for the Wild there. Coyle isn't putting up a ton of points, but he's getting quality time on a team much better than the Wild. If Boston didn't stack their top line, he'd be chipping in a lot more points, but as it stands now, they don't need him to do that (Minnesota, of course, did/would need him to do that)

The issue is (like everyone on the Wild), Coyle was never consistent in production. As you said, they needed that.

Though once again they can fall back on the ol "second game of a back-to-back, on the road, with their backup goalie" excuse. Literally exactly like Hutchinson.

Anything to keep the excuses flowing.

Probably just need a few more losses like this though... in a row...
