Funny, the Lame Ducks have won more cups (not under Boudreau, of course) than the "State of Hockey". They've also never been relocated to Texas.

The Ducks have been around a few more years than the Wild.
The Wild have never relocated to Texas either.

I didn't say they had been.

Wow, Gil has disavowed the North Stars.

Always been a Black Hawks fan, so I didn't like the North Stars 1 bit. Mild hometown Wild fan, but no longer have season tickets.

How 'bout dem Blue Jackets?

Eh. They are a good team, but definitely not great. That 16 game winning streak (which ended with a resounding thud) was remarkable for sure. Without that winning streak though, they're just a middle-of-the-pack team in the standings. They've been 5-6 since. They'll almost certainly make the playoffs, but as the 7 or 8 seed.

It's no coincidence that the Jackets "streak" happened almost entirely against Western Conference teams.

I blame injuries. And lack of team defense. And lack of scoring. Other than that, the Devils are a playoff team.

Canadiens (leading the Atlantic by 6 points though only 3-6-1 in their last 10) fire their coach and hire the recently fired Bruin coach Claude Julien. Kind of weird.

It's a Frog thing.

He will fit in nicely in Montreal with all the crying and whining he does on the bench.

Meanwhile, the Caps are on their week off with just ridiculous numbers for the calendar year. Since January 1...

18-2-1 overall and 12-0-0 at home, including the last 11 home games with 5+ goals every game (Papa John's is going broke around here).

Holtby is 14-0-1 in 2017

Goals Against = 2.1 (1st)
Goals For = 3.4 (2nd)
Power Play = 22.2% (4th)
Penalty Kill = 84.5% (3rd)

10 players with at least 10 goals.

BTW, as a complete side note, the Wizards are 11-1 at home since January 1 so DC teams are a combined 23-1-0 at home in 2017.

Might wanna start saving some of those wins for the playoffs.

It's just too bad the Cup isn't awarded to teams who are so awesome in the regular season.

A participation trophy. How cute.

I'd rather have no Cups than have her on my team.

I usually stick to the college sections on this forum but what the heck.

Am I the only King's fan on this forum?

Hopefully.

Caps just signed a Kings defenseman for future considerations. What can you tell me about Tom Gilbert?

[Ivytalk]

Pretty good smack going on here!

Not much, just in the 18 games he's has played he has 1 goal 4 assists and averaged about 15 minutes of playing time. Unfortunately there isn't much else to say.
