Weekly Game Day Thread – 3/30

Welcome to the Game Day Thread for the games in the week of 3/30. What a weird week it was last week. The team didn’t play much like the five game winning streak team. Bad news is we really needed more of those points. The good news is we only have two games this week. Get ready for the West Coast trip – you can sleep after we’ve made the playoffs (maybe). Just a reminder – we’re always looking for new people to chat with and to be part of our community. Feel free to share the link to our...

NHL weekend rankings: A stunning coaching change in Vegas shakes up the Pacific

Well, we didn’t see that one coming. Maybe we should have, given that the Vegas Golden Knights don’t exactly have a reputation as a patient franchise. They’ve spent every year of their existence as aspiring Cup contenders, and they’ve made it clear that failure isn’t an option. Given how much failing they’ve been doing this year, maybe we should have expected yesterday’s bombshell, with John Tortorella replacing Bruce Cassidy as head coach with just eight games left to play. What does it all m...

Bottom Six Minutes: Jakub Dobeš does it again

For the second time in a week, the Montreal Canadiens found themselves taking on a top team in the Eastern Conference in the form of the Carolina Hurricanes. This time, they would have to do it in Carolina’s barn, and would have to do so on very little rest, having just won a game in Nashville that started less than 24 hours prior to this one. In both games against the Hurricanes, the Habs struggled to spend much time in the offensive zone, and yet for the second time, they found a way to get ...

Lightning come back to beat Predators, 3-2

We could write a thousand words about today’s game. Or we could just link back to the previous three or four recaps. The Tampa Bay Lightning struggled to start the game, fell behind, tied the game, and were the better team in the third period. Corey Perry tapped home a shot that snuck through Justus Annunen’s pads seven minutes into the third period to give the Bolts the 3-2 lead. To the Lightning’s credit, they’re getting better. They only went down one goal this time, and it took almost...
