Is the schedule supposed to be released a 3 PM eastern time or pacific time because Las Vegas is now the center of the hockey universe?

I'm really going to miss Steigy's classic call of "PHILL THE THRILL CAN FIRE THE PILL!"

He enjoyed saying Boone Jenner more than Bob Dole enjoyed saying Bob Dole.

Feb. 6: Vegas @ Penguins

19 back-to-back games, the most of any team.

Do they also lead in back to back days off and/or 3 day rests?

Jagoffs don't have the schedule on nhl.com

Heh. Nashville in game 3.

Gave us 19 back-to-back games to give plenty of fuel for should have kept Fleury.

There's some good media...Bobfather, Chicken Parm, Engblom, Mike Johnson, etc. guys that know the game...I'd be fine with them...players are stupid. A 50-person panel who actually takes it seriously is better than a 170-person panel who have a lot in common with Troy Loney/n! in the other thread...

But wouldn't that be the same panel that somehow omitted Malkin from Top 100?

Why does the season start with three straight Western conference games?

Postby **Dickie Dunn** » Thu Jun 22, 2017 4:01 pm

Home the Wednesday before Thanksgiving, away the Friday after Thanksgiving (Boston @ 1PM), and then back home for a game on Saturday seems like the epitome of "dick move" scheduling.

TIL that we drafted Freddie Tiffels.

6' 1" 200 lbs, played on German World Cup squad this spring. LW. 2 G, 6 PIMS in 8 games.
21 points (10 G 21 A) as freshman at Western Michigan. Said to be speedy.
