Post-Game Talk: Mika May

[Wtp99]

The one thing to me about Chytil is that he hasn’t played in a long while and he is made of glass. I am not a hater but I would only play him if he is 100% ready and up to NHL speed.
Not sure how much of an upgrade he would be at this point. Don’t want to see his career put on hold again after a dirty DeAngelo hit

Yes, and not unprecedented.

Fun fact: the 2007-08 Penguins were 28th in the league in corsi. They got somewhat better the following year, but still nothing impressive.

They went to the SCF in '08 and won the Cup in '09.

There's a legitimate argument that some teams require fewer touches to get great chances and therefore, don't build up as much quantity as teams that are still searching for goals.

And then you're ahead and everyone plays like shit when they're ahead.

Allocation between high vs mid- or mid- vs low-danger chances is not dependent on “perpetrators” in these models.

 

[Hunter Gathers]

Listen, I understand the sentiment, but trust me, you want the safe spaces.

Half the shit that gets said in GDT's really shouldn't fly if we're being honest. Me, personally, and the rest of this team, we understand the emotions and we tend to let GDT's ride unless it's blatant harm-wishing.

That's why the sub-forums exist.

My advice is to not react to it, and not even read it. We don't need to get into a "yeah, but" war over what's said or done in GDT's. It's just going to lead to a crackdown on all sides.

If you wanna take your chances on the playoff forum, that's up to you. Another team's sub-forum? I wouldn't even open it.

Yeah that's generally my POV. I just don't know if there's an actual *RULE* about it. I've never seen one.

 

[Kane One]

This assumes that other local mods give a shit about the place like ours do.

Idk why people are even going into their sub. Unless they expect a sweep, we’ll lose a game and Canes fans will be here licking our tears too.

Just for funsies.

The rule started last year, or I could be wrong. It at least started to be enforced last year.

The laugh emoji for posts is garbage and pretty much only used for trolling.

I was a global mod during the 2014 run to the finals... so I would never actively do anything to make mods' jobs any harder. We didn't have likes/laughs back then, thank goodness.

I never understood this. And it's bad juju.

 

[Gardner McKay]

Yeah that's generally my POV. I just don't know if there's an actual *RULE* about it. I've never seen one.

There isn't per se, however, some immature fans thought it would be funny to go in and laugh at every post in rival/opponent subforum after their rival or opponent loses a game or something.

Thus, the reaction troll category was born.

I want to cry just thinking about that...

You lack a troll mindset.

Do the 2018 Caps!

Better yet, do the 2017 Caps and then the 2018 caps!

 

[Flan the incredible]

So Rangers win 5 playoff games in a row and look like the team to beat in the entire NHL and fans here are now saying "I have a great idea, let's change the lineup" . To make matters worse its for a guy who most of us were worrying would never play again let alone this season.

WTF people are you that bored?

I use it when I generally lol at a post that’s really funny, anything less gets a like, but that’s just me and I don’t venture to the mains (anymore)

 

[Peltz]

Taking out Rempe for a game or two isn't going to make or break the team. He isn't dying. He can always be put back in if we need him.

But why mess with momentum?The team hasn’t lost yet.

I’d only make a lineup change if Chytil is healthy and the team loses, even though he’s by far the better hockey player over Rempe.

Playoff wins don’t grow on trees and we have 5 of them somehow with Rempe on the roster. If im Laviolette, I’m not messing with that right now.

Kind of crazy because I feel like that 07-08 team in the first three rounds was much more impressive than the 08-09 team and the 08-09 Red Wings were much weaker for whatever reason despite adding Hossa.

God, I hated that movie so much.

I walked out. And that's impressive because I was watching at home.

I didn't like it at all either. Was really disappointed. I thought it would be good.
