Why does the NHL sort teams by points and not percentage or games behind like in the NBA or MLB?
Holmstrom96 replied to kalaco's topic in General
The point system is useless with the 2-point win. I also hate "loser" points awarded to teams that lose in OT or a shootout. If the NHL is to keep a point system, this is how it should look: A three point system!: Regulation Win = 3 points Regulation Loss = 0 points OT\Shootout Win = 2 points OT\Shootout Loss = 1 point Otherwise they should just ditch the system and go with W\L record. Then you can compare teams by their win\loss percentage which will help better represent a team in standings because teams haven't always played the same amount of games. -

Entertaining hockey. It was nice to finally see some goaltender interference calls go OUR way. The new arena is pretty sweet. GO WINGS -

Pizza... Pizza... RIP to a good man.

This is terribly sad. I can't imagine having to bury one of my children. My thoughts are with the Daniels family.

What channel!? I can't find it! FSD Alternate 1. found it!
-
Yes, but you can use NHL TV, which those of us who are in-market cannot. My solution solves for if you're in-market and don't have cable.

It looks like SlingTV will offer an option with FSD. I was going to use SlingTV, but with this new option I'll just "borrow" my parent cable credentials and watch them that way. I already get Disney and HBO via my parents. Fox Sports Regional's (FSR's) are available in the Sling Blue package for $25 a month: https://www.sling.com/ It also comes with a bunch of other channels too.

Let's dispel once and for all with the fiction that Ken Holland doesn't know what he is doing, he knows exactly what he is doing. -
Should any of #91, #13, #40, #30 be retired? Poll/Discussion
Holmstrom96 replied to kickazz's topic in General
HA! I love Holmstrom. He was my favorite player for a long stretch and a part of FOUR Stanley Cup teams. However, he's no superstar. He's not universally heralded nor acclaimed. Holmstrom is one of those dudes that gets stuff done. He might not be the flashiest, or have all the deke's, ice time, or goals to show for it. He's a breed of folks that won't have numbers retired, but will be in the hearts of folks for a long time. When I think of his type of player, I think of the heavy lifters like Draper, McCarty, and Murphy (pre-new glasses). No, there's no way in hell Holmstrom's number should be retired. -

#91 - No #13 - No #40 - Probably Not #30 - No -
New logo is bad-ass.

RIP Gordie.

Wings took the "A" away from Datsyuk and made him move back to Russia, so at least Brown still has a spot on their roster.

I was hoping for a classic name, but the reality is that people just don't ignore something that valuable, like naming an arena. I'm glad it Little Caesars and not some other company with no roots here. It's a local business with a national footprint. LCA, here we come!

This is why I LOVE being in the Eastern conference. All games that start at a decent freakin' time! Thanks for posting this, HR19.

Free Press: Pavel Datsyuk to return to Russia following Playoffs
Holmstrom96 replied to jdwheelz's topic in General
I'm happy for the guy. He's filthy rich, he's got a family, and a country he loves and wants to go back to. With his kind of money, there's no reason to work, ever again, ever, period. You only get to live once. -

Jeff Blashill = Dave Lewis 2.0 / Coaching Change

LOL, I knew, but I couldn't resist the opportunity. -

Totally agree. Until Franzen comes back, I'm reserving judgement. -
I think this might be finally it for the Mule, Sadly
Holmstrom96 replied to HockeytownRules19's topic in General
I've got a lot of great Franzen memories, but it's time for him to retire. I wish him well. I hope his concussion issues go away. -
Interesting Article about NHL Veterans Not finding jobs
Holmstrom96 replied to kliq's topic in General
Very interesting article. Perhaps it's time for "Hockeyball". -
I choose not to gamble. This strategy has resulted in zero money lost.
