Trolling Carolina fans 101

Only time I can wear this jersey and it means something. Bought this at the Bell Center the one and only time I've been. Sigh. Gotta find out if I can get Newhook put on there.

Anyone else have a jersey or three (also have a Romanov RR jersey "Montreal won't trade away TWO blue chip defense prospects? McDonaugh for Gomez was one and done right? ..... RIGHT?" sigh) with players you are sad have gone? (Not really sad about KK, other than eating a draft pick and an expensive jersey on him).

Carolina Hurricanes legend Jesperi Kotkaniemi.

MODS - don't worry, I'm not going to the Canes sub. This is IRL trolling

EDIT #2 - it came to me, as if in a fever dream - I Red Greened the jersey with duct tape and a Sharpie, so now it says "Newhook"

Garrett F. Rank is a ref tonight

How awful is the NHL referee core when Garett Rank gets final-4 assignments?

Remember the Edmonton game earlier this year? The game where Martin St-Louis said, "We watch game film. We hope the NHL watches game film too."

Now we know. Evidently the NHL does not watch game film.

Jean Hebert is the other ref.

Slaf’s buddy Šimon Nemec reportedly wants out — should Hughes kick tires?

Slovak outlet Denník N reports that Šimon Nemec has requested a trade from New Jersey through his agent, citing a trusted source who spoke on condition of anonymity.

The same report says the Devils would be looking for a young top-six forward in return if they move him. San Jose and St. Louis are mentioned as teams to watch, but it made me wonder from a Habs perspective.

Nemec is a 22-year-old right-shot D, former 2nd overall pick, Slovak national team buddy of Slafkovský, and still an RFA. Obviously, Montreal already has a crowded young blue line, but high-upside RHDs are not exactly easy to find.

Would you want Kent Hughes to at least make a call? And since New Jersey reportedly wants forward help… how many seconds would it take them to hang up if we offered Filip Mešár? 😅

More seriously, what would be a realistic Habs offer — if there even is one?

On this date in 1979, the Montreal Canadiens won their fourth straight Stanley Cup Finals and sixth Stanley Cup of the decade. They’ve won two more since for an NHL-record 24 titles, but haven’t lifted the Cup since 1993. That chase continues tonight vs. Carolina.

Rest vs Rust - the Facts

The Cannes haven't played in 12 days, so what could happen?

This is interesting. I looked into what happens when a team has a ton of time off between series, and do they win the next series?

I found the longest breaks between playoff series. There has only been 3 series where 1 team had 10+ days off before their next series started. The Cannes will be the 4th team.

The record for these teams was: 1/3:

I looked into teams that had 9 days off too, 2 teams, both lost.

The Habs are the only team to have a ton of time off and then win the next series.

Awesome!!
