Or Larkin gets back to an All Star game, or Andreas Anthanasiou makes it. Those two are fecking lightning.
Larkin isn’t the fastest and his “record” is fake...he was given a head start the year he won it for whatever reason
Just read more about Brock Boeser, he's had quite the life and overcame a lot of personal/family issues. His accuracy is the best in the league at the moment.
Vegas are having one hell of a season. The most successful expansion team in sports history at this rate. The Lightning are actually looking like they will have a good shot at the Cup again this year. Got the mid season blip behind them and Hedman is back. Go Bolts !
Trade deadline is just over 12 hours away
Few teams have already made moves, interested to see if any big dominoes fall

Leafs and bruins trades just weird IMO, leafs gave up too much for plekanec.
Bruins gave up way too much for Rick Nash.
Strong rumors of Ottawa trading Karlsson which is pretty insane.
Ottawa doing a full rebuild and Karsson on form is the best defenceman in the league by a fair margin. If they trade him its because they are getting picks and players in return that should see them back in the playoffs in a few years
It's really poor management. They were in the ECF last year and now they're going in full rebuild mode, they won't ever draft another Erik Karlsson again.
Vegas apparently in the running for him, what an incredible first season it would be for them!
Well, I got my tickets today for next season's Oilers opener against the Devils in Sweden... Just need to try and get the pre season game in Germany on Wednesday now and I'll be happy.
Connor McDavid is tearing up the points chart right now, after such a poor season by the team, and his slump post illness in November, it's amazing just how good he is.

My god he is so good to watch
I don't think I've enjoyed watching anyone as much as him since perhaps the days of Gretz and Mario were fighting it for the scoring title. Pure hockey magic, I've not seen him live yet, so hopefully come October I'll have a much better appreciation for him.

Greatest pure goal scorer in NHL history, and especially to be doing it in this day of age against these goalies. What a player who will most definitely go down as a legend.

White out is coming!
Sedins last home game ever last night. Sat lower bowl behind the bench and had a perfect view of them scoring both their goals ....1 in the 2nd period and the other being the OT winner. Never ever ever ever has the arena ever been buzzing like it was yesterday. Standing O’s after standing O’s. Even video recorded the entire sequence from the OT puckdrop till they scored and celebration afterwards, just don’t know how I’d be able to post it here.
Wow, what legends to the city and province. The classiest people in hockey. One final game in Edmonton tomorrow but man that send off home was something else. Dank (#22) scoring his 22nd goal of the season 33 seconds into the 2nd period assisted by Edler (#23) and Henrik (#33). And then the OT goal scored by Dank again at the 2:33 mark again from Hank and Edler. Un fecking believable. Still can’t believe it.

Dreadful news regarding Humboldt Bronco's, the whole hockey world is thinking of them. It's unthinkable that something like this would happen.
Yea, just dreadful. There’s been huge support from Canada, North America, and the entire hockey world. There’s a gofundme with over $4m raised; if you’re able to please do so. 24 year old female trainer who was in the bus passed today as well, just terrible.
...as hard as it is with that event, on the side was a refreshing 1st day of playoff hockey to get your minds off of. Vegas 1st ever win at home too.
Doughty gets a 1 game suspension for no reason. Honestly an every game play you see time and time again, and was completely harmless...Vegas, fix ? 
Kadri with a reckless hit against Wingels. He’ll get suspended. If Doughty got 1 game, guessing 2 for Kadri. But that would also mean the NHL is consistent so can go either way really

Not sure what Kadri was thinking, if at all with that hit. Yeah take some retribution for sure, but do it when things are fairly even, don't hit a game on the ice. I'd be inclined to give him 3 games for that. It wasn't "dirty", but it was nasty.Doughty gets a 1 game suspension for no reason.

Good to see the Lightning getting the offense going in the play offs. They went off the boil for a few weeks but seem to be in top form again.
Great games by the Jets, the Wild never really had a chance.
Penguins defeat the Flyers in game 6 to take the series. Such a crazy entertaining game, I absolutely love play off hockey!
In other hockey news, Team GB beat Slovenia 3-1 in Group 1A of the World Championships. Huge win for GB, after promotion last season they beat the top seed in the tourney, and a team who got through the group stages at the Olympics only a couple of months ago. Who knows a couple more wins and next year we could be playing the big boys in the World Championships..
Oh my god, I don't believe it Team GB have won Group 1A, never in the history of hockey World Championships have any nation gone back to back gold medals up to the World Championships. We'll be smashed all over the place in the top flight, but it will be worth it after all we've not been in the top flight since 1994.
As for the game that sent us up, 15.8 seconds left and we sneak a goal to tie the game which gave us the point we needed to win the goal.
Back to the NHL, can the Oilers #makeitfive first overall picks with the lottery tonight?? We seem to be great at winning this rather than actual games.

Please Lord of Lottery give the habs the n°1 spot.
We need to change the system of how the lottery is done, it's a fix how the Oilers haven't had a first overall for 3 years now is beyond me.
The Winnipeg fans might just have a claim for the best atmosphere in sports.
North American sports you mean. But sure. After game 3 i was ready to bet on the jets to win the cup simply because it felt like they could never lose at home with that crowd
4 amazing series so far anyways

The NHL is hands down the best sport to watch as a neutral. The speed of the game takes some beating. Stanley Cup hockey is absolutely awesome.
It can get pretty tiresome on tv, but a fast paced game live is just as entertaining as a 4-3 game of football.
Washington capitals finally break their unlucky streak. Tampa going to beat them in 4 though.
You jinxed them. On the verge of back to back home defeats.North American sports you mean. But sure. After game 3 i was ready to bet on the jets to win the cup simply because it felt like they could never lose at home with that crowd

It seems so
Still think they'll win game 7, think they're better than the preds.
Caps finally slay their dragon. Will lose to tampa in 5
Vegas to win the cup
I hope Tampa finally wins one, and please not the VGK or Caps.
Go Jets Go!
What a series that was
What a series that was
Caps destroyed tampa in game 1 
total domination
I'm still taking the jets for the cup though, clear best team in the league

Boston beat the Lightning more convincing in game one of last series, and Tampa bounced back with four wins on the trot.Caps destroyed tampa in game 1

The Jets might be playing well but they didn't even win their division so to declare them the clear best team in the league is a stretch.
