What everyone is talking about
The Oilers are complete garbage, and since the GM couldn’t possibly be blamed for it, they are going to let Craig MacTavish try to fix it. Right now, the solution appears to be to try and trade Taylor Hall. Yeah, that’ll solve everything. Also, for some reason, Hall doesn’t want to leave Edmonton. Hmm.

Scoreboard
Tampa Bay 3, Philadelphia 1 – Stamkos scores again. Yawn.

Montreal 4, Carolina 1 – The Hurricanes don’t even have 20 points yet. Oof.

Columbus 1, Detroit 0 (SO) – Haha, Jimmy Howard, you are credited with a loss because someone had to be! Clearly, you stink! ASAS

Toronto 6, Anaheim 2 – Toronto, as noted yesterday, is on a 6 game winning streak. I’m on the verge of taking them seriously.

Florida 2, Washington 1 (SO)- Florida took their #Floridadoesntendinregulation thing to the logical extreme, as their shootout with Washington was the longest ever at 20 rounds. ASAS

St Louis 5, Los Angeles 2 – Remember, regular season games between these two teams hardly have any bearing on the playoffs.

Winnipeg 5, Buffalo 1 – Mark Sheifele scored twice. I bet the Oilers wish they had a good young player who was a top draft pick kind of like Sheifele.

Nashville 3, Boston 2 (SO) – I can assure you that there are people in Boston grousing about the fact that they couldn’t beat Nashville, because they don’t realize that the Preds are pretty good this year. ASAS

Chicago 5, Minnesota 3 – The Wild haven’t beat Chicago since 2004. I made that up.

Arizona 2, Edmonton 1 (OT) – Edmonton: At least we’re better than Carolina!

New York Rangers 5, Calgary 2 – It looks like Calgary is…. going down in Flames. /bows.

Tweet of the Moment

I think that this is a pretty rough translation from French to English, but I’m pretty sure that Montreal is trying to sell Alex Galchenyuk’s services, if you know what I mean. (I mean sexy services)
