Unless there is a change

Penguins have the worst PP in the NHL but ironically have the best PK

So they at both ends of the scale for special teams lul

Bobcat's Post Game Notes, Game 17

Jackets win, 3-0 over the Winnipeg Jets.

-I knew coming into this game that the crowd in the NWA would boo Pierre-Luc Dubois relentlessly whenever he had the puck. Boy, did they not disappoint.

-It felt like forever until they scored the first goal. Greg "Hassle" Hofmann from a perfect feed by Max Domi with 5 minutes left in the first.

-#SexiTexi had his contractually-obligated "Once per game deke-into-shot" moment that maybe would have went in on the rebound had Blake Wheeler not bulldozed the net.

-I absolutely adore our power play this year. We're currently 16th in PP% with an even 20%. I feel like it'll be Top-10 by year's end.

-Andrew Peeke with the mother of all snipes on the empty net from the right-side faceoff circle on our own end.

-Elvis recorded a shutout! The King of Rock and Roll definitely checked a few people into the Heartbreak Hotel tonight.

Looks like Kampf might be out for a while. Was really enjoying his contributions to the team so obviously random nobody #3057035839 on los angeles has to take him out.

I just watched SN NHL for the first time in some 80 days and that coverage blows large multi-diameter chunks!
And to think, it only cost several billion CDN pesos...

Caps Game Notes:

Samsonov is back. Couple fluky goals but overall looked solid.

Apparently any player the Caps call up plays well. Somehow the Leason-Sgarbossa-Malenstyn line held their own tonight.

Romanov was looking for a fight with Hathaway or Wilson, shame we didn’t get to see it.

Jake Allen looked baaaaad. Even from warmups he looked stiff, and montembault looked better during warmups at least.

Ovi saw that he could catch Gretzky and said no, let me just pass all the time now.

I love Nic Dowd and will heavily consider purchasing his jersey.

Bonus: Shoutout to the Capitals for giving out Souvenir Cups that have Holtby in them like he’s still on the Caps. Clearly they didn’t get rid of all their 2019-20 cups tears of joy

Edit: Also CAN WE PLEASE STOP GETTING HURT? Pretty please?

This is why Caps thanksgiving games are the best.

Also Mites on Ice is the best tradition in hockey and I refuse to acknowledge any other (except for maybe the cannon)

great game. I was watching it walking through Epcot so I missed some stuff. Don’t really know what happened on the Goalfield goal. Also wow can these kids play. The one most noticeable for me was leason. I recommend getting the real Connor mcjesus or Jensen. I’m gonna get a sprong Jersey because he is the best .

Spezza is one of the very few people left in the league that is willing to just take a good old-fashioned slapshot out of nowhere and actually score. This is a shot I wish was more common, the Yzerman goal was iconic and I want to see it more lol. I realize goalies are much better these days so it's less viable, but the power you can get from a good slapshot still has a place imo, I hope more people work on refining their accuracy with their slapshot to make it more common/viable.

Its the same with Dman and point shots. Seems guys prefer passing more than shooting or when they get a goal its in close. Bouchard and other young Dman are bringing back point shots though so thats good.

Forwards though especially the rookies should be watching as adding a spezza slap shot to your arsenal would probs make for more points

Kings announcers really comparing this current leafs team to the 2018-2019 Lightning who tied the NHL record (facepalm)

Should be comparing them to the Islanders between 2018-2021 as the way were playing just looks so much like Trotz hockey with a tad bit more offense

Also **** them for disrespecting Campbell
