2013-14 NHL season thread

The best part is that Toffoli and Pearson are getting a ton of playoff experience now that will pay off when they take over the team from the Kopi/Doughty/Brown/Carter core....

Western Conference
NHL
Fcked

Doughty still has 5 years under contract and barring injuries it's not like he's going to decline

Doughty is 24. Twenty- ing-four.

Hopefully they get rid of the stupid ass 4-conference system. The Hawks' biggest compe ions are the Blues and the Avs while they'd only need to face one of the Kings-Sharks-Ducks power trio..

[Clipper Nation]

The Avs are going to be really good soon as MacKinnon and Duchene continue to develop, tbh....

[lefty]

Doughty's decision making is fap worthy

[spurraider21]

my Dad (who had always been a Kings fan, got me into them) abandoned the Kings when they drafted Doughty... he was upset they didn't draft Zach Bogosian instead

we used to get the small season ticket package (i think it was like 12 games or so) but he hates the Kings now because of det armenian pride

[IrisHockey]

this could be another LeBron/Kings double for CN... second in 3 years.

[spurraider21]

why couldn't the raiders win the superbowl in 03

So beautiful

Quicky gets another pass


Go Kangs

Sharts choked again to make it all possible

I hear ya, we did it for the good of Cali

In all seriousness, I actually hope the Sharks stop choking one of these years.... the Kangs and Ducks have done their part, but a Sharks cup would firmly establish California as a hockey state, tbh....

look at all the 180s made in support of the Kings...one minute you're and the next they're like oh yes! I knew they could do it. Such fickle faith from some posters. But then again, it isn't all that much of a surprise when you see whom they naturally root for.

tbh if you read my previous posts, you'll see that I believed in them, unlike most actual Kings fans here

To be fair, you are a Habs fan--so I guess it is only natural you'd give some support to the Kings.

The fact that no Canadian team has won it since Bill Clinton was in office doomed you from the start. You're a Canadien fan, no? So it is quite understandable that you'd throw your secondary support behind the Kings--who'll hopefully win their 2nd SC in 2 years.

I could care less about hockey. The fact that Canadian players contribute means little. It's about time Canada does something constructive in the world of sports.

Canada invented basketball, so ....

Kings are -160 on most sports books, about 60% implied possibility which is too low..

I'd say Rangers win game 1, and then Kings backdoor sweep.

As long as Patty and Joe T lead the way, I can't see it stopping any time soon. It would take some major match-fixing to even get to the SCF.

Considering that a.) the Blackhawks have owned us for years, b.) the Kangs looked like in Games 5 and 6 and even long stretches of Game 7, and c.) no team in NHL history had won three Game 7's before reaching the Cup Finals, it's not a surprise that some of us were not too confident, tbh....
