The NHL Thread
For the 5 of us who post NHL stuff, here you go. Officially the season starts Tuesday October 11, although there were tw
While I'm here, empty your betting account on the Jets to win tonight and then double down on the Stars to win game 7.
The Stars have lost eight consecutive series openers in the NHL playoffs since 2022, including all seven under DeBoer after a 5-1 loss in Game 1 to the Avs.
“Well, we’re going on the road,” DeBoer said when asked if there was anything he could do to try to change that trend. “Other than that, not really. There’s only so much you can do. I like our preparation. The way we prepare for a Game 7 is the same way we prepare for a Game 1."
Six of Dallas' seven Game 1s under DeBoer have been at home. So have all three Game 7s, like Saturday against the Avs that made DeBoer 9-0 — the most wins by any NHL coach or player in such games.

Big on Marchand over 0.5 points +125
Less on Lundell over 0.5 points +140
Yeti is absolute garbage too. There hasn’t been a good team name picked across sports in a while. Kind of a reflection of how weak and trash the young are. I, for one, welcome being nuked off the earth.

Mammoth are fun animals. Should get a nice logo out of it.
There’s a logo, it’s semi-similar to Predators logo. It sucks and looks like a minor league logo, to go with the minor league name. It’s almost like it’s flipping the bird with its tusk. I guess I almost like that aspect of it until I realize it’s us fans who are getting the tusk bird flipped at us.
