Re: 2016/2017 NHL Regular Season Thread
Caps win another high scoring game 6-1. They were 24% shooting percentage and 18.6% over the last 10 games. Since 2007 the highest any team has maintained for a whole season is 11.6 percent (stats ht: Russian Machine Never Breaks) Flames are the opposite. They have trailed 4-0 4 games in a row. Tha...

Re: 2016/2017 NHL Regular Season Thread
In hockey, two penalties (a trip and a dive) can occur at the same time which is bogus and gives the refs a cop out to manipulate the game. I feel like you're specifically referencing the Zibanejad "dive" from last night after the refs had fallen victim to the whole "you can't really...

Someone has to care. Nobody on the flames cares about anything right now.
And no chance Komerov gets suspended. They didn't even call a penalty and every analyst I heard said it was clean.

Something has to be done. In the first matchday of the African nations cup 6 out of the 8 games have been draws with a total of 12 goals scored.
That's a group of 4. A group of 3 would be worse.
