Thank you THG for these nightly uploads. You are a god amongst men sir! I sincerely love watching the daily recaps even if my team blows chunks on the ice nightly. Your perseverance doesn't go unnoticed.
Majority of what I’ve seen about Ovi scoring is negative because it was an empty netter, people don’t realize how big of a morale booster that is for the Caps coming off of a long break and being without their captain for 40 days
Ovechkin wouldn't be out on the ice with the opponent's goalie pulled if Washington wasn't playing great hockey as a team and winning as a result. Empty net goals are an indicator of how good the rest of the team is around him.
Tampa has absolutely been cruising lately. Defense looks better, transition game is starting to pick up and we’ve figured out our new pp. PK has been a lot better as well. Don’t look now but Tampa might make another deep run…
Death Taxes and the Flames scoring 3 goals a game (I am aware that the flames won and that the flames put up 6 on chicago but still it is somewhat impressive how consistently our offense caps out at 3 goals) Not complaining about another win though
Looking forward to seeing the Jets back in the top 5 in the power rankings after a great comeback win tonight against a pretty hot Sens team, and after spanking the Leafs earlier in the week. Winning most games and Still #1 in the league!
I see a lot of hate for Necas here, but I'd just like to say that as someone who has Necas in fantasy, it'd be cool if he scored again. Also, it's nice to see Tokarski get another W.
People bitching have never gotten hit in the knee. Hurts a ton. Absolutely not Necas's fault the refs are result-oriented callers. Sure, fair argument the hit maybe wasn't a penalty or major. But people acting like unless he is literally bleeding out on the ice, he's "faking it". People need to go outside and get some fresh air.
Really hope Guentzel is okay, he took a pretty dangerous tumble into the boards. Sucks that every time we play anything with somewhat of a contentious opponent, the bolts always seem to get a little more injured.
@@CC8771 vasy has been solid, just a few bad games here and there, not a lot to be worried about as a bolts fan, he looks better than last year and the year before. ESPECIALLY better than last year
Sens played an amazing road game. Helly was amazing for the Jets, and concerningly Sogaard couldn’t really help them out. Hopefully Ullmark is back soon
Stop me when you've heard this before..."Point, Kuch & Guentzel each with a multi-point game." That line is just absolutely sick right now. 5v5 hockey went from the Lightning's biggest liability to their biggest strength in one season. Look out for the Bolts. Rumors of their demise have been greatly exaggerated. #VassyIsBetter #GoBolts #SeenStamkos
It is hard to beat your opponents and the referees every night as the devils. The devils were playing like crap and probably didnt deserve to win but that game was NOT officiated well at all.
That's not accurate. Sure, maybe the knee-on-knee on Necas wasn't worthy of a major . . . but Haula's hit on Orlov was nothing short of goonish. *That* should've been a major.
@@maxfish4270 the devils not playing well is better than 90% of the league playing well. So not sure what your point is and I'm not whining. Objectively the game was officiated poorly. I didn't mention specifics or say it was all against the devils.
As a devils fan they got outplayed by Carolina which was obvious. I saw this loss coming from a mile away. They had won the previous three games and were playing a back to back. I would not go as far as to say the game was decided by the refs. All of the game stats point towards Carolina being the better team tonight. I think both canes fans and devils fans can agree that overall officiating has not been great. I feel like every team’s fans should come together to call out the officiating instead of arguing with each other about what should have been called and what shouldn’t have been called. I am of the belief that refs can influence games but not decide them. What decides games is who puts more pucks in the net. That’s my take on the whole canes devils game last night and refs sucking this whole season for a large majority of teams.
what are you talking about? The game was still 2-2 until that major penalty was called. It certainly interfered with the momentum of the game in the Canes favor. If you want to talk about stats, just look at the difference in penalty minutes and tell me that is not biased officiating. There always seems to be with that certain ref crew. It's suspect officiating to say the least.
@@scoot333I’m not saying the officiating wasn’t biased. Regardless of whether officiating is biased they don’t decide a game, they certainly can influence the game. Also, the penalty minutes are not the only stat. Almost every single stat from that game goes in favor of the hurricanes. That ref crew being 12-0-1 when reffing hurricanes home games is certainly concerning and worthy of investigation. Until there’s a trusted and reputable source that reports on that I’m taking it with a grain of salt.
I never complain about officiating, but tonight’s game was actually so hard to watch. So many missed Carolina penalties, and that Meier hit that was fine until they realized Necas was “hurt” and decided to go back and throw Meier out of the game and give him 5 minutes to silence the crowd, then Necas literally doesn’t miss a shift. Not to be that guy but like how do you go from looking like you need to be stretchered off to skating perfectly fine in like one minute. They also missed an interference call on Luke Hughes and instead called Jack for a penalty right after. The Carolina crowd is so loud and electric you can hear it on the TV, and it kinda feels like they were influencing the refs tonight
It's all because Necas stayed down instead of going to the bench after the hit. A bad stinger turns into a major and an ejection -- all for Necas to ultimately miss zero time. That's Sheldon's beef with it, and I see why. It decided the game. Devils were mad after that, got really chippy, and now the Haula on Orlov hit is being talked about equally. (But that all happened after this pivotal call, loss of a top 6 fwd, and subsequent goal. They wanted their pound of flesh for what they thought was gamesmanship).
@@jma.87 to be fair, getting hit like that with a stinger, Necas probably didn’t know what was wrong at the time. If you got hit like that and thought you might’ve blown out your knee, you probably wouldn’t be racing to get up and put weight on it right away. Also, there was the review and a commercial break before he came back out. It isn’t like he got the call and popped back up. This talk that it was intentional is kinda silly imo
@@london6580 facts of the situation, after the call was confirmed from the review, Necas was on the bench within a minute. That's just how it played out. NJ obviously isn't going to be happy about that result, regardless of intent. Major was called for player injury - player wasn't injured - that's the issue. I don't blame them.
Thinking the refs called a major on Meier making ZERO effort to avoid a career-threatening knee-on-knee hit to "silence the crowd" is an all-timer display of cope.
Igor saves 8 out of 13 shots lol! And another great game for Hellebuyck. Where's all the Shesterkin fan boys that argued with me in October that he was better than Hellebuyck? U all pretty quiet now 💀
Helle had 33 saves out of 35 shots, which is definitely impressive. It's no contest that he's better than Shesterkin this season as well as last season when Helle won the Vezina.
@@TheHockeyGuy I get what you're saying, so lets compare apples to apples in the Big Apple... go back to last season when the Rangers won the president's trophy, but I don't recall Shesterkin winning the vezina. Pretty sure even with the deepest team in the league last year, Shesterkin was outdone by Hellebuyck.
Until someone passes them in points total, can we stop saying Winnipeg is one of the top teams in the league and just say they are the top team in the league?
Thanks for the video! For Saturday late games my picks were Bruins, yes, Caps, yes, Bolts, yes, Devils, no, Jets, yes, Pens, no, and Flames, yes. Not bad, Magee!
Necas really sold that knee injury with going to the back soon as penalty called he’s back on the bench and moving on the ice like normal such a bad call.
I guess most of the 90s Devils fans who understood hockey are now long gone, replaced my whiners who don't know the difference between pain and injury and think major penalties require a player knocked out of a game.
Haula really gooned Orlov with direct head contact MUCH worse than the head contact called on Carolina, which should've been AT least a double minor for drawing blood.
Regarding Necas, it's that he stayed down so long on the ice instead of even attempting to get helped to the bench that influenced the refs most in NJ's eyes. No call and a really bad stinger turns into a major and a game for Meier. And he doesn't miss a shift. I'm glad he's not seriously hurt, but it changed the entire complexion of a 2-2 divisional game for no reason. Haula-Orlov... Yeah, context matters. The game was decided then, NJ was mad about the perceived gamesmanship, and they wanted their pound of flesh at that point. Using that hit as "both sides got screwed" doesn't really apply - calling a major on Haula at that point in the game is completely irrelevant to deciding who wins. It's a split, both teams stay exactly where they were and burn two games. Onto the next one.
Oh yeah no it was totally cool for Haula to target a players head with his elbow. That definitely shouldn’t be called because of “context”. The context being “we were mad”. Do you understand how dumb you sound
I admire your attempt to suggest that Devils fans would complain LESS about the major penalty if Necas had tried to get up quicker. It insults the intelligence but certainly there are people dumb enough to believe it.
@@maxfish4270 No. Devils fans would have complained less about a major if Necas was ACTUALLY injured 🙄 but you missed the point, Max. There's a code that you don't stay down unless you're REALLY hurt. Players try to get to the bench (or hobble) at all costs unless you're really done. Sheldon Keefe is the one who said post game something along the lines of: "A tough message for the players that if you take a big hit that laying down on the ice has its benefits"... When I say "in NJ's eyes", I'm talking about the players and the coach with that in mind, not the fans. They thought the result sucked, and that Necas being 100% fine leaves a suspicion of gamesmanship. Not saying it IS gamesmanship, a suspicion of it.
@@jma.87 I'm betting deep down you know if it was an injury the whining would be even louder that it was only called because an injury happened. btw there's also a code you don't risk ending someone's career by leaving your knee where it was when you can as easily change your stance while still going for an upper body hit.
@@maxfish4270 idk, man. I told you what the player code is, and you respond with a hypothetical and insinuated it's a dirty hit. It looked like a clean hit to me (and DoPS agreed with no suspension or fine). It's not like this conversation is going anywhere... so, let's agree to disagree. Have a good day and New Years ahead.
The 5 min Major on Timo Meier in the Devils game was a terrible call and turned the game. Should not have been a 5 min major. The Carolina player faked an Injury, left the ice, and only came back after they announced the Major, and was so “injured” played on the power play.
Buddy, you can call a 5 minute major if there’s no injury resulting. The result typically has no bearing on it, that’s why it’s video reviewed and either reduced, dismissed or upheld. There was avoidable knee on knee contact and that’s why it was called. Keep your shirt on and go watch the next game.
@@Manvaro What about it? The rules about knee on knee have been out there for a while. They caught this one and decided it fit their criteria. It was avoidable at all stages of the play so I don’t know what to tell you. Why should there have to be an injury resulting to make that call if the actions satisfy the criteria for a major regardless?
Lmao NJ fans, imagine doing well this season and then being this mad you lost a back to back against one of the top teams in your conference. "Waaaaah Necas flopped" he took a hit to the knee that no doubt hurt like a mfer. Maybe it shouldnt have been called, maybe it was just an unlucky collision, maybe NJ was looking to put him out intentiononally, all are possible. "Waaaaaah Orlov" got his nose broken/bleeding and was still trying to fight. Haula didnt expect someone to buck up to him and he found out. "Waaaaaaah we didnt capitalize on the PPs we got, and the Canes got more SoG than us on our PP" Must have been the refs fault right? Take the L and move on. Youre not gonna win every game, its okay. Tbf im sure most of you whining are actually Rangers fans, so i dont hold it against actual Devils fans.
Canes fans should be absolutely embarrassed chanting 'refs you suck ' after the most biased officiating in favor of their team I've seen in a while. Just an embarrassing fanbase with constant bad takes .
THG my team can’t even keep a lead my Canucks can’t even win a game it’s a struggle and we lost to the kraken. U don’t know what u get with this team. I am just frustrated we can’t win a game and keep a lead make it make since THG I am just upset with the disappointments every year I know we are a playoff team but this team needs to win a game. Vancouver is unpredictable I just my Canucks to win and look good doing it. No more OT losses sick of it.
It should tell you New Jersey knows how to repeat a whiny meme counting on people never asking who were the opponents for those 12 wins. "The score was 2-2 and then the refs made us kill a power play waaaaaaah!"
Yeah, inexcusable Haula's elbow to Orlov's head wasn't a major just because the Devils already had a previous career-threatening bad play in that game.
do the devils fans realize that necas went to the room and got cleared to come back out?? do devils fans realize the reason he didn’t miss any ice time is because the stoppage to review the major took like 10 minutes and that’s why he had time to shake it off?? no, devils fans don’t realize, because they’re just rangers fans in a different sweater and can’t comprehend that their team is a fraud.
It's no joke that Jersey fans are just Rags fans. Timo is responsible for his body, just as players are with their stick. Leading with a knee is a penalty. Maybe Necas was on the ice a little longer to make sure he wasn't injured but if you're not gonna give Necas benefit of the doubt, than neither should Timo.
That canes game was reffed just as badly as last nights. That call on Meier was god awful. That reffing crew the canes had tonight, the canes have a 12-1-1 record under them.
@@andrestretchnikov4591Bro, canes ain't winning the cup. It the same team every year, and they lose, every…single…year. Like clockwork. I feel like I've seen it a million times already.
Kraken-Canes where the Kraken goalie initiated contact with a Canes defense player outside the crease leading to a goalie interference call that gave the Kraken the win. Now, the award to WORST fan base who doesn't understand knee-to-knee hits threaten careers and are a major penalty even if the hurt player doesn't miss any game time goes to...... 🏆
You got a 5 min power play at a 2-2 game in the 3rd off a bs call. Canes are a boring team that shoots from the parking lot. Their shot totals always mean nothing.
@ like I said, Cry is free. Not a bs call as it’s not the only time an identical play has been a 5min. Could have called that dirty ass hit by haula too but NJD got by with a 4 on 4.
Even if we call the Haula hit a major, which it could have been, orlovs retaliation and takedown at the end is a penalty regardless of what led up to that moment. The game was not called fairly period.
It's fine, you don't need to acknowledge that you have an extremely biased officiating crew. Canes record with that ref crew speaks for itself. Enjoy your win with the refs.
Shannon i don't think you realize how upset devils fans are with the officiating in this one because i don't think you would troll us with that ugly jersey.
I’ll never understand complaining about penalties. It’s okay to be frustrated but to act like you know the outcome of the game if things were called differently… no one knows.
YOU WON THE GAME OFF A 5 MINUTE MAJOR!!! This has nothing to do with the devils power play. Necas faked an injury at a 2-2 game. No call was made on the hit until Necas layed on the ice for 5 minutes to cry until the play was reviewed. They assessed a 5 minute major off a clean hit. After the penalty was called, Necas came back immediately and played almost the entire power play. The refs fumbled a great hockey game and the canes got a win handed to them.
@@GemCardCollecting same exact play happened in the Tampa V Florida game, and had the same exact penalty called and ejection, and half the major was a 4v4. Necas coming back was a relief and an AVOIDED injury brodie.
Yeah because they only got the two PP over two games when they could and should have easily had eight to ten (at bare minimum six). Also Necas playing over three minutes of the major after doing his best soccer player imitation drawing a call that even the PWHL would laugh at as bush league soft in which the Devils lost a top-six forward and the Canes score the GWG on.... but yeah the zebra had nothing to do with the result of the game.
In the Devils vs Canes game it seemed the Devils believed they could psychologically take the Canes out of the season if they could dominate last night - even to the point that they resorted to unexpected dirty play.... It didn't work and actually seemed to do the opposite for them.
@ yeah Canes are in a slump some teams go through slumps. They did start off the year hotter than the Devils. A big problem with the Canes right now is that their stars are in a slump and their starter goalie is injured yet they don’t have a losing record because they have depth and grit. You’re pulling up the record when hockey isn’t predictable. Any team can beat any other team any time of the week it’s what makes the sport so exciting and nerve wracking.
@ and? It’s still in playoff contention. Canes also have gotten into a slop and fallen but they also got unlucky. The Devils last season were more unlucky than they were bad. Canes are going through the same injury problems. They didn’t have their number 1 offensive defensemen quarterbacking their powerplays this game because he’s injured, their starter is injured, star players are in a slump, and their 2C is injured but they still don’t have a losing record and outplayed the Devils.
People in New Jersey should be embarrassed and that's before we start talking about hockey. The idea that major penalties only matter if there is a surgery-requiring injury is brainless.
Usually agree with the hockey guy but in the power rankings video he said that was a dominate Carolina game and the refs didnt matter, thats crazy to me. It was 2-2 pretty even game until that major call
@@maxfish4270 wish I could rely with a photo but look at any stat site that shows chances by period, it was pretty much dead even until the major, if anything a slight favorite to the devils. This is mot based on shot volume
@ look at any website that records chances by period, everything was basically dead even right up till the major was called, it literally changed the game
Devils had 60 minutes to put up more than 2 on a 30-something AHL goalie. A team with that much talent should be better, especially for as much trash as New Jersey fans talk.
You see the fanbases true colors in a loss like that. So caught up in winning most of them are unwilling to admit they were outplayed. It’s ridiculous how much complaining and crying is going on
@@roezak It influenced the game. If the tables were reversed, I bet that many Canes fans would feel the same way (and you wouldn't be telling NJ fans now to stop complaining because their team was outplayed -- let's be real). Carolina did have a strong game, and Jake Allen had a strong 40 minutes. Hard fought, Canes definitely "deserved to win", but we know that doesn't always play out in hockey. I wish we met another time this year - but alas. See you in April or May, maybe.
@ All penalties influence the game, that’s true, and what abouting sounds bitter. I’ll tell NJ fans to stop complaining because I like their team and I want to see young stars have success, sometimes that means overcoming officiating. I do the same thing to my fellow Canes fans regularly. Hold your team to higher standards no matter what. It shows you’re an all-weather fan.
@@roezak I've been watching hockey for a bit (mid 90's). I don't normally take exception nor blame officiating for losses - bad calls happen, you have to focus on what your own team can control, and there are so many other plays that influence the sequence of events. That said, I can certainly empathize with the larger grievances being aired out there by many in the base (and even agree to an extent in this particular case). Sorry some are being a bit rude or straight up condescending. It was a tough way to lose, and there are a lot of newer (or impatient) fans these days being really outspoken. Every base has at least some. Take it easy and happy New Year
horrible reffing in the canes game. Basically gave them the game by refusing to call penalties for NJ. Its was so bad its not even funny, if you ref staff is 12-1 with a team you shouldnt be reffing its clear favoritism. Necas soccer star.
@@creed9395 you are talking about the second best power play in the nhl. Canes had the refs on their side the last two games and still lost one. Necas faked an injury and it caused his team to win. Was clearly not a penalty. He got hit hard and clean.
@@creed9395he wasn’t injured in the first place and there was no intent to injure him on the hit he took when he stupidly couldn’t avoid Meier running through him. He embellished it, then waited until Meier got a major and 5hen miracle was fine and didn’t miss a shift and played the entire pp. The devils had a right to be mad at a guy doing soccer trash in hockey.
@@creed9395after he came back? He didn’t miss a shift. He was acting like he was shot and then he was out there right away on the power play. He wasn’t hurt. He flopped and the refs gave them that game
y’all are nuts, I’d say the game was evenly called. A lot of missed calls for both sides, and sorry but a knee on knee collision is gonna be a penalty every time if the guy you knee is a star player who laid you out earlier in the game. Also if you’ve ever had your knee busted, you would know that it’s scary and you can’t put weight on it until adrenaline kicks in. You won’t give necas the benefit of the doubt, so I won’t give Meier the benefit of the doubt. good call.
How weird that NJD-CAR Game was. Heavy hitting right from the start and questionable officiating. The major was unnecessary, but Haula deserved more. In the end, Canes were the better team and deserved this win. Even the NC Governor gets weirdly involved after the game over twitter. Anyway ... moving on.
It's like Jersey fans have never taken a hard hit. If you take a bad hit, you might need a minute to evaluate before getting up or doing something so you don't hurt yourself more. Geez, you're just like NY fans when something doesn't fall their way.
Sad a player as good as necas has to do some scummy shi like that. instant loss of respect pretending to be injured for a call, but magically fine once the call is made. never misses a shift even though he just got carried off the ice😵💫💀
@ i like how you didn’t even try and deny that he did it or even defend it. At least a part of you understood to not even try cuz yk. Textbook 🐑 behavior tho
@@SoulO117Sad a player as talentless as Haula is allowed to skate on the same ice as players as good as Necas. And you clearly have no understanding of how serious knee injuries can be.
@@SoulO117 You also probably liked getting passing grades in English class even though you completely lack the ability to understand that my statement recognizing knee-to-knee hits are a big deal means I don't to repeat myself stating how dumb your "pretending" comment is.
I think you need to weigh in on more of the controversial issues within a game because glossing over the Timo "major" as if its nothing is kind of wild. The officiating in that game was horrendous and the league should look into those officiators to see what the heck happened throughout the game. Necas should be fined for the dive as well. Even Canes broadcast didnt think that was a major. embarrassing.
Neccas is a soccer player rather than a hockey player. He acts like he is out the rest of the game and once he gets the call, he gets up and doesn’t miss a shift. It was a terrible call by the refs and they definitely bet on the game to have Canes win.
That Timo penalty was a joke. Plus, to not call a penalty on Orlov for tackling Haula as he was being escorted to the penalty box, is absolutely insane. The refs had it out for NJ in this one.
@@maxfish4270 Yeah he was penalized for roughing. Which he did as soon as he got up. Plus, he went back to the bench and out of play, then just went after him. Definitely more than a roughing call.
@@CarolinaBuckrush HAHAHA the calls were not lopsided?? Just take a seat dude. Devils were leading until the 5 min gifted to the Canes dictated the rest of the game. Refs dictated the momentum of the game and its blatantly obvious.
Atrocious officiating in the Devils game. Orlov and Neces faking injuries to get the PP. the canes are 12-1-0 the last 2 seasons with that officiating crew.
Seeing you wear the canes jersey after that abomination of a game hurts. The canes probably had the win, but the refs gifted them that game. They bent us over with no lube
@ the game was already gifted away at that point. Necas took a dive. He wasn’t hurt at all. He acted and the refs gave the canes the game. The dude was on the ice immediately on that PP skating around like a monster. He wasn’t hurt at all
@@CarolinaBuckrush no. Watch it back. Orlov jumped a dude and the ref had a stick in his hand. The ref dove on them to break up the scrum and as they fell, the stick blade cut him. It was very clear on the replay.
If your gonna wear that jersey you need to lay on the floor and pretend your hurt for a while. Cry a little too, to sell it. That way the governor of NC will hype your channel.
Bummed the canes game didnt end 4-2. Thay way the season series wouldve had 4 games ending jn 4-2 results. Only slightly though gonna take a win regardless
Canes needed to win the season series +1. The real shame is it wasn't 6-2 with the glorious Svech chance at the end or 8-2 with a few of the other missed changes or 8-0 with the Canes avoiding those mistakes.
Thank you THG for these nightly uploads. You are a god amongst men sir! I sincerely love watching the daily recaps even if my team blows chunks on the ice nightly. Your perseverance doesn't go unnoticed.
lol rangers giving up shorthanded goals makes me happy tho
Majority of what I’ve seen about Ovi scoring is negative because it was an empty netter, people don’t realize how big of a morale booster that is for the Caps coming off of a long break and being without their captain for 40 days
Ovechkin wouldn't be out on the ice with the opponent's goalie pulled if Washington wasn't playing great hockey as a team and winning as a result. Empty net goals are an indicator of how good the rest of the team is around him.
They were winning without him. They don't need the grey haired old Rusky except that he wants Gretzky's record so that's his prime focus now
If Ovi had never scored an empty net goal he'd still have over 200 more goals than the next most among active players, #2 is Crosby
In the end, they don't ask how. They ask how many. A puck going in off your nuts and scoring on a deke that strips the goalie counts all the same.
I’ve only seen people talking about how crazy it is that he’s back after four weeks. Haven’t really seen anyone talk about the net goal lol
Tampa has absolutely been cruising lately. Defense looks better, transition game is starting to pick up and we’ve figured out our new pp. PK has been a lot better as well. Don’t look now but Tampa might make another deep run…
Death Taxes and the Flames scoring 3 goals a game
(I am aware that the flames won and that the flames put up 6 on chicago but still it is somewhat impressive how consistently our offense caps out at 3 goals)
Not complaining about another win though
It would be funny if we beat the kings with three and somehow hold them below three. Think of the memes.
The knights*
Looking forward to seeing the Jets back in the top 5 in the power rankings after a great comeback win tonight against a pretty hot Sens team, and after spanking the Leafs earlier in the week. Winning most games and Still #1 in the league!
CAPS CAPS CAPS ❤🎉
The rangers are cooooooked. Yikes
If the Canes had not gotten the ENG, all 4 games of the CAR-NJD season series would have been won by the home team 4-2. Odd...
Disregarding the home thing, remember, the canes won 4-2 in their last game on the road last season.. this was insane
I see a lot of hate for Necas here, but I'd just like to say that as someone who has Necas in fantasy, it'd be cool if he scored again. Also, it's nice to see Tokarski get another W.

@brendanwoerner3352 lol nobody cares bro. Your team lost. Get over it.
Really hope Guentzel is okay, he took a pretty dangerous tumble into the boards. Sucks that every time we play anything with somewhat of a contentious opponent, the bolts always seem to get a little more injured.
Wait till you play Florida again. Your dirty Kucherov will not have any peace.
@Your_Role_Model lmao looks like someone didn't watch the replays
Thank you sir
Bolts have the highest points% in the atlantic and 2nd best goal diff in the NHL. We should be serious contenders.
We are, people just havent realized it yet. I like it like that, keep us dark horses
This is what happens when you trade the defensive blunder known as Stamkos.
From what I’ve seen of bolts games this season, their goalie hasn’t been his historically elite self. Lots of leaky goals.
@@CC8771 vasy has been solid, just a few bad games here and there, not a lot to be worried about as a bolts fan, he looks better than last year and the year before. ESPECIALLY better than last year
Anyone who said to fire JBB over the summer should be apologizing. He made the team more competitive with his moves.
11.5M.... hopefully it shows value next season.
Sens played an amazing road game. Helly was amazing for the Jets, and concerningly Sogaard couldn’t really help them out. Hopefully Ullmark is back soon
A bit off topic, but I would love to hear your thoughts on UNLV club hockey team beating defending nat'l champ Denver.

GoJetsGo!!
Tampa is rolling, but it's hard to lead your division when you've played 4/5 less games than everyone in front of you.
pretty sure the Islanders will get to the ECF now
Wonder if Sens can claim Primeau
There's 4 refs on the ice and the NHL still has the worst officiating in any sport. Good lord!
The Caps Flex continues. Reality is setting in for the doubters.
That Boston game was abominable!
Stop me when you've heard this before..."Point, Kuch & Guentzel each with a multi-point game."

For over a month now he’s been doing it on Sunday morning. Come on dude
It is hard to beat your opponents and the referees every night as the devils. The devils were playing like crap and probably didnt deserve to win but that game was NOT officiated well at all.
Friendly tip, admitting the Devils didn't play well and then whining about the refs doesn't make you seem fair minded.
That's not accurate. Sure, maybe the knee-on-knee on Necas wasn't worthy of a major . . . but Haula's hit on Orlov was nothing short of goonish. *That* should've been a major.
@@maxfish4270 the devils not playing well is better than 90% of the league playing well. So not sure what your point is and I'm not whining. Objectively the game was officiated poorly. I didn't mention specifics or say it was all against the devils.

@@Ryyder64LOL what a bad-faith reply. Read your own comment again. You just contradicted your ENTIRE original comment. What a joke.
Hockey guy you are a one-take wonder!
Don’t think Lysell got a point on that first goal, even though he was huge in creating the chance. Did he get a point later?
As a devils fan they got outplayed by Carolina which was obvious. I saw this loss coming from a mile away. They had won the previous three games and were playing a back to back. I would not go as far as to say the game was decided by the refs. All of the game stats point towards Carolina being the better team tonight. I think both canes fans and devils fans can agree that overall officiating has not been great. I feel like every team’s fans should come together to call out the officiating instead of arguing with each other about what should have been called and what shouldn’t have been called. I am of the belief that refs can influence games but not decide them. What decides games is who puts more pucks in the net. That’s my take on the whole canes devils game last night and refs sucking this whole season for a large majority of teams.
Agreed from a Canes fan
It’s hard beating refs and teams when your a devils fan
@@staalman1226no one cares!
what are you talking about? The game was still 2-2 until that major penalty was called. It certainly interfered with the momentum of the game in the Canes favor. If you want to talk about stats, just look at the difference in penalty minutes and tell me that is not biased officiating. There always seems to be with that certain ref crew. It's suspect officiating to say the least.
@@scoot333I’m not saying the officiating wasn’t biased. Regardless of whether officiating is biased they don’t decide a game, they certainly can influence the game. Also, the penalty minutes are not the only stat. Almost every single stat from that game goes in favor of the hurricanes. That ref crew being 12-0-1 when reffing hurricanes home games is certainly concerning and worthy of investigation. Until there’s a trusted and reputable source that reports on that I’m taking it with a grain of salt.
@ 7:45 Lil boo boo. Rangers are 16-18-1
I never complain about officiating, but tonight’s game was actually so hard to watch. So many missed Carolina penalties, and that Meier hit that was fine until they realized Necas was “hurt” and decided to go back and throw Meier out of the game and give him 5 minutes to silence the crowd, then Necas literally doesn’t miss a shift. Not to be that guy but like how do you go from looking like you need to be stretchered off to skating perfectly fine in like one minute. They also missed an interference call on Luke Hughes and instead called Jack for a penalty right after. The Carolina crowd is so loud and electric you can hear it on the TV, and it kinda feels like they were influencing the refs tonight
If anything that Meier one was wrong call, but so was that Haula hit. Thats the one that should have been 5 and game
It's all because Necas stayed down instead of going to the bench after the hit. A bad stinger turns into a major and an ejection -- all for Necas to ultimately miss zero time. That's Sheldon's beef with it, and I see why. It decided the game. Devils were mad after that, got really chippy, and now the Haula on Orlov hit is being talked about equally. (But that all happened after this pivotal call, loss of a top 6 fwd, and subsequent goal. They wanted their pound of flesh for what they thought was gamesmanship).
@@jma.87 to be fair, getting hit like that with a stinger, Necas probably didn’t know what was wrong at the time. If you got hit like that and thought you might’ve blown out your knee, you probably wouldn’t be racing to get up and put weight on it right away. Also, there was the review and a commercial break before he came back out. It isn’t like he got the call and popped back up. This talk that it was intentional is kinda silly imo
@@london6580 facts of the situation, after the call was confirmed from the review, Necas was on the bench within a minute. That's just how it played out. NJ obviously isn't going to be happy about that result, regardless of intent. Major was called for player injury - player wasn't injured - that's the issue. I don't blame them.
Thinking the refs called a major on Meier making ZERO effort to avoid a career-threatening knee-on-knee hit to "silence the crowd" is an all-timer display of cope.
Igor saves 8 out of 13 shots lol! And another great game for Hellebuyck. Where's all the Shesterkin fan boys that argued with me in October that he was better than Hellebuyck? U all pretty quiet now 💀
Helle had 33 saves out of 35 shots, which is definitely impressive. It's no contest that he's better than Shesterkin this season as well as last season when Helle won the Vezina.
Put Helkebuyck behind that crap Rangers defense and his numbers would be the same. The Jets are an excellent defensive team. It's apples to oranges.
Brossoit had the same stats as Helle
@@TheHockeyGuy I get what you're saying, so lets compare apples to apples in the Big Apple... go back to last season when the Rangers won the president's trophy, but I don't recall Shesterkin winning the vezina. Pretty sure even with the deepest team in the league last year, Shesterkin was outdone by Hellebuyck.
@@AntonyLP Brossoit is good, but if he also played 60 games that would never have happened, and anyone with hockey knowledge knows that.
Until someone passes them in points total, can we stop saying Winnipeg is one of the top teams in the league and just say they are the top team in the league?
No, because they aren't first place in points percentage. It's easy to have more points when you've played more games.
I guess Boston got sick of being creamed by Columbus
That Timo call was a joke
You mistyped "Orlov".
Thanks for the video! For Saturday late games my picks were Bruins, yes, Caps, yes, Bolts, yes, Devils, no, Jets, yes, Pens, no, and Flames, yes. Not bad, Magee!
Necas really sold that knee injury with going to the back soon as penalty called he’s back on the bench and moving on the ice like normal such a bad call.
I guess most of the 90s Devils fans who understood hockey are now long gone, replaced my whiners who don't know the difference between pain and injury and think major penalties require a player knocked out of a game.
Haula really gooned Orlov with direct head contact MUCH worse than the head contact called on Carolina, which should've been AT least a double minor for drawing blood.
Regarding Necas, it's that he stayed down so long on the ice instead of even attempting to get helped to the bench that influenced the refs most in NJ's eyes. No call and a really bad stinger turns into a major and a game for Meier. And he doesn't miss a shift. I'm glad he's not seriously hurt, but it changed the entire complexion of a 2-2 divisional game for no reason. Haula-Orlov... Yeah, context matters. The game was decided then, NJ was mad about the perceived gamesmanship, and they wanted their pound of flesh at that point. Using that hit as "both sides got screwed" doesn't really apply - calling a major on Haula at that point in the game is completely irrelevant to deciding who wins.
It's a split, both teams stay exactly where they were and burn two games. Onto the next one.
Oh yeah no it was totally cool for Haula to target a players head with his elbow. That definitely shouldn’t be called because of “context”. The context being “we were mad”. Do you understand how dumb you sound
I admire your attempt to suggest that Devils fans would complain LESS about the major penalty if Necas had tried to get up quicker. It insults the intelligence but certainly there are people dumb enough to believe it.
@@maxfish4270 No. Devils fans would have complained less about a major if Necas was ACTUALLY injured 🙄 but you missed the point, Max. There's a code that you don't stay down unless you're REALLY hurt. Players try to get to the bench (or hobble) at all costs unless you're really done.
Sheldon Keefe is the one who said post game something along the lines of: "A tough message for the players that if you take a big hit that laying down on the ice has its benefits"...
When I say "in NJ's eyes", I'm talking about the players and the coach with that in mind, not the fans. They thought the result sucked, and that Necas being 100% fine leaves a suspicion of gamesmanship. Not saying it IS gamesmanship, a suspicion of it.
@@jma.87 I'm betting deep down you know if it was an injury the whining would be even louder that it was only called because an injury happened. btw there's also a code you don't risk ending someone's career by leaving your knee where it was when you can as easily change your stance while still going for an upper body hit.
@@maxfish4270 idk, man. I told you what the player code is, and you respond with a hypothetical and insinuated it's a dirty hit. It looked like a clean hit to me (and DoPS agreed with no suspension or fine). It's not like this conversation is going anywhere... so, let's agree to disagree. Have a good day and New Years ahead.
Rangers are 16-18-1, not 16-8-1
The 5 min Major on Timo Meier in the Devils game was a terrible call and turned the game. Should not have been a 5 min major. The Carolina player faked an Injury, left the ice, and only came back after they announced the Major, and was so “injured” played on the power play.
Played 3.5 of the 5 minute major
Buddy, you can call a 5 minute major if there’s no injury resulting. The result typically has no bearing on it, that’s why it’s video reviewed and either reduced, dismissed or upheld. There was avoidable knee on knee contact and that’s why it was called. Keep your shirt on and go watch the next game.
@@roezak Soft league
@@Manvaro What about it? The rules about knee on knee have been out there for a while. They caught this one and decided it fit their criteria. It was avoidable at all stages of the play so I don’t know what to tell you. Why should there have to be an injury resulting to make that call if the actions satisfy the criteria for a major regardless?
The call turned a 2-2 game the Canes had outshot and outchanced? Good think being a Devils fan doesn't require an IQ test.
Predicting another Leafs vs Boston series at this point. 40 million dollar core and you can't score on the power play when it counts. Absolute joke.
Lmao NJ fans, imagine doing well this season and then being this mad you lost a back to back against one of the top teams in your conference.
"Waaaaah Necas flopped" he took a hit to the knee that no doubt hurt like a mfer. Maybe it shouldnt have been called, maybe it was just an unlucky collision, maybe NJ was looking to put him out intentiononally, all are possible.
"Waaaaaah Orlov" got his nose broken/bleeding and was still trying to fight. Haula didnt expect someone to buck up to him and he found out.
"Waaaaaaah we didnt capitalize on the PPs we got, and the Canes got more SoG than us on our PP" Must have been the refs fault right?
Take the L and move on. Youre not gonna win every game, its okay.
Tbf im sure most of you whining are actually Rangers fans, so i dont hold it against actual Devils fans.
Grow up
Canes fans should be absolutely embarrassed chanting 'refs you suck ' after the most biased officiating in favor of their team I've seen in a while. Just an embarrassing fanbase with constant bad takes .
Tell me which fan is better rangers or devils or they are the same

@@maxfish4270 Sure bud
@10:10 The league officiating is really bad and indefensible.
Yeah, inexcusable Haula's elbow to Orlov's head wasn't a major just because the Devils already had a previous career-threatening bad play in that game.
Devils fans absolutely crying in these comments is hilarious
You mean crying like how Necas was crying on the ice? He got a little boo boo 🥺
@@andrestretchnikov4591 Canes fans would do the same thing if they got screwed over by refs
Considering Canes fans do the same over far less
do the devils fans realize that necas went to the room and got cleared to come back out?? do devils fans realize the reason he didn’t miss any ice time is because the stoppage to review the major took like 10 minutes and that’s why he had time to shake it off?? no, devils fans don’t realize, because they’re just rangers fans in a different sweater and can’t comprehend that their team is a fraud.
Are they ever going to play a normal amount of games?
He faked an injury, kid.
Bro, he flopped. Necas should play soccer
They’re devils fans. Whenever the team is good this is how they act
There was a review and a commercial break and they act like they made the call and he got up like nothing was wrong. Overly emotional fan reactions
Lot of Devils fans complaining lol
It's hard to play your opponents and the refs every single night. We didn't play well but even on a bad night we were still in it.
There were plenty of Canes fans in the building booing every time there was a clean hit, talk about complaining
I don’t wanna be an asshole but how do you get 1 and make it 3 power play goals bro 😭😭 still the man tho THG
???
Didn't mention Necas and Orlov pretending they were assassinated to get penalties and then being fine right after. SMH
Facts
orlov has a broken nose
did we not watch the hit or Orlov after? Blind ass mf, get some glasses
It's no joke that Jersey fans are just Rags fans. Timo is responsible for his body, just as players are with their stick. Leading with a knee is a penalty. Maybe Necas was on the ice a little longer to make sure he wasn't injured but if you're not gonna give Necas benefit of the doubt, than neither should Timo.
Orlov was bleeding all over the ice. That was an ugly hit that didn’t even get a penalty. Tf you talkin bout m8…?
That canes game was reffed just as badly as last nights. That call on Meier was god awful. That reffing crew the canes had tonight, the canes have a 12-1-1 record under them.

@@HOBOTw1tcH yeah the guy who got booted was really doing something, and the major was 4 on 4 for the first 2 minutes, along with that hit on orlov

Cry is free Devils fans. 5 on 5 corsi was pathetic. Canes PK outshot the Devils PP.
You got a 5 min power play at a 2-2 game in the 3rd off a bs call.
Canes are a boring team that shoots from the parking lot. Their shot totals always mean nothing.
@ like I said, Cry is free. Not a bs call as it’s not the only time an identical play has been a 5min.
Could have called that dirty ass hit by haula too but NJD got by with a 4 on 4.
@@plainface3523 you are talking about one bad call. The canes had MULTIPLE MISSED CALLS.
Even if we call the Haula hit a major, which it could have been, orlovs retaliation and takedown at the end is a penalty regardless of what led up to that moment. The game was not called fairly period.
It's fine, you don't need to acknowledge that you have an extremely biased officiating crew. Canes record with that ref crew speaks for itself. Enjoy your win with the refs.

Devils fans complaining when their powerplay was god awful and got outworked for a majority of the game
YOU WON THE GAME OFF A 5 MINUTE MAJOR!!! This has nothing to do with the devils power play. Necas faked an injury at a 2-2 game. No call was made on the hit until Necas layed on the ice for 5 minutes to cry until the play was reviewed. They assessed a 5 minute major off a clean hit. After the penalty was called, Necas came back immediately and played almost the entire power play. The refs fumbled a great hockey game and the canes got a win handed to them.
@@GemCardCollecting same exact play happened in the Tampa V Florida game, and had the same exact penalty called and ejection, and half the major was a 4v4. Necas coming back was a relief and an AVOIDED injury brodie.
meier hit on Necas was clean. If it was dirty, he will get suspended. But he won’t. Because it never should have been a penalty.
Yeah because they only got the two PP over two games when they could and should have easily had eight to ten (at bare minimum six). Also Necas playing over three minutes of the major after doing his best soccer player imitation drawing a call that even the PWHL would laugh at as bush league soft in which the Devils lost a top-six forward and the Canes score the GWG on.... but yeah the zebra had nothing to do with the result of the game.
@@devilsarebeastly give em 30 powerplays and they arent scoring on any of em gng
In the Devils vs Canes game it seemed the Devils believed they could psychologically take the Canes out of the season if they could dominate last night - even to the point that they resorted to unexpected dirty play.... It didn't work and actually seemed to do the opposite for them.
Refs cooked the Devils tonight. Necas should be embarrassed but in reality, he won his team the game by faking an injury.
Cry much, more SoG for Carolina during Devils PP, 5v5 Corsi was lopsided to Canes benefit. Devils weren't winning this one.
@@GemCardCollectingit was knee on knee but the Devils should have gotten a major penalty called against them with the Haula hit
@ yeah Canes are in a slump some teams go through slumps. They did start off the year hotter than the Devils. A big problem with the Canes right now is that their stars are in a slump and their starter goalie is injured yet they don’t have a losing record because they have depth and grit. You’re pulling up the record when hockey isn’t predictable. Any team can beat any other team any time of the week it’s what makes the sport so exciting and nerve wracking.
@ and? It’s still in playoff contention. Canes also have gotten into a slop and fallen but they also got unlucky. The Devils last season were more unlucky than they were bad. Canes are going through the same injury problems. They didn’t have their number 1 offensive defensemen quarterbacking their powerplays this game because he’s injured, their starter is injured, star players are in a slump, and their 2C is injured but they still don’t have a losing record and outplayed the Devils.
People in New Jersey should be embarrassed and that's before we start talking about hockey. The idea that major penalties only matter if there is a surgery-requiring injury is brainless.
Usually agree with the hockey guy but in the power rankings video he said that was a dominate Carolina game and the refs didnt matter, thats crazy to me. It was 2-2 pretty even game until that major call
Earlier this season the Canes lost a game they dominated with 50 shots. The phrase "dominating a game" doesn't always refer to the score.
@@maxfish4270 wish I could rely with a photo but look at any stat site that shows chances by period, it was pretty much dead even until the major, if anything a slight favorite to the devils. This is mot based on shot volume
@ look at any website that records chances by period, everything was basically dead even right up till the major was called, it literally changed the game
How can you wear a Carolina jersey and not cry on the ground a little? Come on man, you gotta really sell it.
At this point I'd pay money to watch New Jersey fans playing hockey in a league where knee-to-knee contact was legal.
Devils had 60 minutes to put up more than 2 on a 30-something AHL goalie. A team with that much talent should be better, especially for as much trash as New Jersey fans talk.
You see the fanbases true colors in a loss like that. So caught up in winning most of them are unwilling to admit they were outplayed. It’s ridiculous how much complaining and crying is going on
@@roezak It influenced the game. If the tables were reversed, I bet that many Canes fans would feel the same way (and you wouldn't be telling NJ fans now to stop complaining because their team was outplayed -- let's be real). Carolina did have a strong game, and Jake Allen had a strong 40 minutes. Hard fought, Canes definitely "deserved to win", but we know that doesn't always play out in hockey. I wish we met another time this year - but alas. See you in April or May, maybe.
@ All penalties influence the game, that’s true, and what abouting sounds bitter. I’ll tell NJ fans to stop complaining because I like their team and I want to see young stars have success, sometimes that means overcoming officiating. I do the same thing to my fellow Canes fans regularly. Hold your team to higher standards no matter what. It shows you’re an all-weather fan.
@@roezak I've been watching hockey for a bit (mid 90's). I don't normally take exception nor blame officiating for losses - bad calls happen, you have to focus on what your own team can control, and there are so many other plays that influence the sequence of events. That said, I can certainly empathize with the larger grievances being aired out there by many in the base (and even agree to an extent in this particular case). Sorry some are being a bit rude or straight up condescending. It was a tough way to lose, and there are a lot of newer (or impatient) fans these days being really outspoken. Every base has at least some. Take it easy and happy New Year
horrible reffing in the canes game. Basically gave them the game by refusing to call penalties for NJ. Its was so bad its not even funny, if you ref staff is 12-1 with a team you shouldnt be reffing its clear favoritism. Necas soccer star.
even when the devils had power plays they didnt do sh*t with them, and after necas came back they actively tried injuring him
@@creed9395 you are talking about the second best power play in the nhl. Canes had the refs on their side the last two games and still lost one. Necas faked an injury and it caused his team to win. Was clearly not a penalty. He got hit hard and clean.
@@creed9395he wasn’t injured in the first place and there was no intent to injure him on the hit he took when he stupidly couldn’t avoid Meier running through him. He embellished it, then waited until Meier got a major and 5hen miracle was fine and didn’t miss a shift and played the entire pp.
The devils had a right to be mad at a guy doing soccer trash in hockey.
@@creed9395after he came back? He didn’t miss a shift. He was acting like he was shot and then he was out there right away on the power play. He wasn’t hurt. He flopped and the refs gave them that game
y’all are nuts, I’d say the game was evenly called. A lot of missed calls for both sides, and sorry but a knee on knee collision is gonna be a penalty every time if the guy you knee is a star player who laid you out earlier in the game. Also if you’ve ever had your knee busted, you would know that it’s scary and you can’t put weight on it until adrenaline kicks in. You won’t give necas the benefit of the doubt, so I won’t give Meier the benefit of the doubt. good call.
LGD !!
How weird that NJD-CAR Game was. Heavy hitting right from the start and questionable officiating. The major was unnecessary, but Haula deserved more. In the end, Canes were the better team and deserved this win. Even the NC Governor gets weirdly involved after the game over twitter. Anyway ... moving on.
He is a die hard fan, has been for many years. He tweets after a lot of games.

The officiating in that game was horrendous and the league should look into those officiators to see what the heck happened throughout the game. Necas should be fined for the dive as well. Even Canes broadcast didnt think that was a major. embarrassing.
Absolutely no reason for Shannon to spend time educating crybaby fanbases that being hit in the knee can really, really hurt.
Neccas is a soccer player rather than a hockey player. He acts like he is out the rest of the game and once he gets the call, he gets up and doesn’t miss a shift. It was a terrible call by the refs and they definitely bet on the game to have Canes win.
That Timo penalty was a joke. Plus, to not call a penalty on Orlov for tackling Haula as he was being escorted to the penalty box, is absolutely insane. The refs had it out for NJ in this one.
Not knowing Orlov did get a penalty is the cluelessness I expect from Devils fans.
@@maxfish4270 Yeah he was penalized for roughing. Which he did as soon as he got up. Plus, he went back to the bench and out of play, then just went after him. Definitely more than a roughing call.

@ the game was already gifted away at that point. Necas took a dive. He wasn’t hurt at all. He acted and the refs gave the canes the game. The dude was on the ice immediately on that PP skating around like a monster. He wasn’t hurt at all
@@HOBOTw1tcHnope Orlov was bleeding from the hit. It should have been a major penalty against the Devils.
@@CarolinaBuckrush no. Watch it back. Orlov jumped a dude and the ref had a stick in his hand. The ref dove on them to break up the scrum and as they fell, the stick blade cut him. It was very clear on the replay.
If your gonna wear that jersey you need to lay on the floor and pretend your hurt for a while. Cry a little too, to sell it. That way the governor of NC will hype your channel.
There was a time I felt sorry for people who had to live in New Jersey. That time was long, long ago.
Time for THG to become TVG(The Vegas Guy) or TDG(The Disney Guy)...a rest is needed.
Bummed the canes game didnt end 4-2. Thay way the season series wouldve had 4 games ending jn 4-2 results. Only slightly though gonna take a win regardless
Canes needed to win the season series +1. The real shame is it wasn't 6-2 with the glorious Svech chance at the end or 8-2 with a few of the other missed changes or 8-0 with the Canes avoiding those mistakes.
Favorite part of the night was where Vasy chased Igor out of net 🫡⚡️
