iHeart Posted February 24, 2017 Report Share Posted February 24, 2017 (edited) this thread is so going to be busy on wednesday Edited March 1, 2017 by iHeart Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goalie Posted February 24, 2017 Report Share Posted February 24, 2017 (edited) Probably not that busy. Jurco has Zero points this year. Stafford definitely gets a 3rd maybe more.

Goalie Posted February 26, 2017 Report Share Posted February 26, 2017 (edited) He's played more games than Laine. Laine was hurt. Matthews hasn't missed a game. But it's irrelevant as the Calder is a popularity contest anyway. Toronto plus American star is more important to the NHL than Winnipeg and a Finnish kid. That American kid with no personality can sell the game to the states. The Finnish kid with personality can't Edited February 26, 2017 by Goalie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rebusrankin Posted February 26, 2017 Report Share Posted February 26, 2017 When does the NHL realizes that they're never going to sell the sport to large portions of the US? They've been trying since the 70s. Example: Phoenix/Carolina/Miami etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are to many fair weather markets in the NHL and the league is not as healthy as the big wigs would have you believe. rebusrankin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Floyd Posted February 26, 2017 Report Share Posted February 26, 2017 Might be some lean years if the Cdn dollar stays low and the northern teams can't support the Southern states - salary cap could be stable for a while Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimmy Pop Posted February 27, 2017 Report Share Posted February 27, 2017 I fully expect the Wild to be eliminated in the first round. It's just so Minnesota. ...like the Jets and not making the playoffs. Noeller and Goalie 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
