Burrows out 3 weeks

Dear Sabres,

If you want to win games, generally you'll need to score more than 1 goal every 3 games.

Blackhawks have allowed 3 shots to Tampa and there's 8 minutes left in the 2nd period.

 

[Brady Marino]

Apparently Tim Thomas has become a swinging saloon door at his old age. 7-0 Blues.

I think just an off game for him. He's still got game.

That was not an encouraging loss. That was a real ####### ####ty loss. #### #### ####.

How the hell do they blow that game?

Sounds like Bishop played great

 

[Nucker101]

So the Oilers still suck, injuries have hurt them but that defense is still brutal.

Its a good thing they bought out VLC

Sedins were up to their usual tricks. It was candy from a baby easy

Holtby played better but it still wasn't good enough to overcome the terrible 5 on 5 play,mental mistakes and overall bad defensive effort.

The Stars have always given them fits down in Dallas and last night was no exception.Chiasson is a budding star in this league and I was really impressed by Dillon.Tons of young talent on this team without a doubt.

They made the plays when they were given them and cashed them in to earn the 2 points and the Caps didn't.

 

[Time Kibitzer]

Guys in fantasy leagues should keep an eye on Tomas Hertl. Rookie played on a line with Thornton and Burns last night and looked good.

Scored 2 goals in his 2nd NHL game. I foresee a lot of deflection goals in this kid's future.

 

[Bill Brasky]

Coyle out a month. Huge bummer. Kid was looking fantastic and looking primed for a big season. Zucker with the call up, hope he's healthy now.

Bummer for the hometown kid. :(

Sounds like Bishop played great

And the Hawks' 2nd goal was on a fortuitous bounce of the glass when Bishop went behind the net to control the puck. Bishop was great aside from that mental blunder. I still think the Hawks missed a few "easier" goals that were terrible shots instead of great stops.

 

[tom22406]

Good to see the Winnipeg fans give Selanne his props last night.Hard to believe his rookie year was so long ago but it was one for the ages.Great player and great fans.

11 am presser coming

Tim Panaccio ‏@tpanotchCSN

Laviolette has been replaced as coach source says

ETA:Hearing Berube will be the replacement but nothing confirmed yet.

 

[Billy Bats]

That was the easiest call ever. What a joke!!

 

[Northern Voice]

Bogosian, lol

That was brutal.

On Laviolette, if you have so little confidence in your coach you fire him after 3 games, you probably shouldn't have started the season with him.

 

[abird701]

Hextall GM yet?

 

[tom22406]

Wild guess here but isn't 3 games the quickest to ever be fired to start the season?

 

[Bill Brasky]

[Hawks64]

Leaving St Louis wide open in front of the net is typically not a smart idea and the Hawks PK is really bad right now.

 

[fasteddie_21]

3 games in? Sounds like the front office has as big (if not bigger) issue than the product on the ice. Oof.

 

[Billy Bats]

On Laviolette, if you have so little confidence in your coach you fire him after 3 games, you probably shouldn't have started the season with him.

x1000 Makes no sense, Homer is up next on the block.

Especially if Berube is the replacement.

Chip Kelly now longest tenured Philly pro coach.

 

[belljr]

angry presser right now

 

[Aaron Rudnicki]

wish I bet on that prop for first coach fired. Lavi was +200 a week ago.

 

[Foosball God]

What a joke

 

[Billy Bats]

We're #1! Yay!

According to oddsmaker Bovada, Peter Laviolette is the NHL head coach most likely to be fired first this season. The odds are 2/1. Joining him on the list are Flames coach Bob Hartley (5/2 odds), Hurricanes coach Kirk Muller (3/1), Wild coach Mike Yeo (4/1) and Jets coach Claude Noel (9/2).

Should be free money. Rud needs to add that into the wagering thread.

I'm a big fan of Chief, but is he really the guy to get the offense working? He wasn't exactly a prolific offensive player.

 

[JaxBill]

Berube cited team defense and playing without the puck as the two biggest issues the team faces. Sounds right.

Figures that the Flyers are just rearranging folks within the organ-eye-ZA-tion.

 

[Funkley]

Is the next hottest seat Mike Yeo's?

 

[Foosball God]

Is the next hottest seat Mike Yeo's?

Berube's imo.

 

[Bill Brasky]

[Bill Brasky]

Is the next hottest seat Mike Yeo's?

short term, I don't think so. and there are others out there who would probably get a quicker trigger. unless they were to really tank through the first 3 months, then anything could happen. long term I would say he's up there for one of the hottest seats though. if they don't show at least some minor improvement in their finish and the development of the youngsters, I think there is a good chance he gets canned.

 

[Bill Brasky]

Schneider vs Luongo tomorrow should be interesting

 

[Parmcat]

Is the next hottest seat Mike Yeo's?

I think its Claude Noel

 

[Northern Voice]

It seems like an awful lot of nights with just 2 or 3 games on to start the season. I know we got spoiled a bit last season with the condensed schedule, but it seems way sparser that usual to me.

 

[wazoo11]

Oiler fans are panicking

 

[Dickie Dunn]

Claude Julien, asked if it's better to get fired three games into the season or with three games left, as he was by the Devils:

"They both suck."

 

[ProBowler88]

I was getting that feeling too. Oh well back to how it used to be

 

[Nucker101]

Schneider vs Luongo tomorrow should be interesting

I wish ownership was rich/stupid enough to let us buyout Luongo and keep Schneider.
