  1. Let this be the first in a string of regulation losses....need to stay below Arizona in the standings.
  2. My respect for Martin St. Louis went up a notch for making good on benching Drouin for the entirety of this game.
  3. My wish list for this game: -Habs compete hard, make a good showing of it, but lose in regulation -Sergachev knocks Drouin on his ass at some point
  4. The bum deserves to be pressboxed for the remainder of the season. I'd like to think that'd be the case if not for the slew of injuries, but who knows with this guy, the way he's always coddled.
  5. Hoping this will be the first in a string of regulation losses. Need to secure that bottom 5 finish.
  6. I don't think it would be fair for the Flyers to hold his son's actions against him, and could possibly leave them open to a wrongful dismissal suit. The only person who this should reflect badly on professionally is the athletic director at Mercyhurst College, should Briere not be kicked off of the team for his actions.
  7. The way our call-ups play makes me hope we can shed guys like Gallagher and Armia before next season starts. I'd rather see guys like RHP, Ylonen, Pezz, and Belzile any day.
  8. I think O'Reilly makes the Leafs better because he's a guy known to elevate his game in the playoffs, and is a strong leader who has a cup ring. That was something lacking in that room IMO.
  9. Damn...the Leafs improved by acquiring O'Reilly and Acciari. If they can add a solid D-man, they just might make it out of the first round: https://www.tsn.ca/nhl/toronto-maple-leafs-st-louis-blues-minnesota-wild-three-team-trade-1.1920875
  10. Although it's a small sample size up to this point, RHP looks very good. His shooting % isn't sustainable, but he sure looks like he's got more goal scoring ability than Gallagher. Let's hope he keeps it up.
  11. It's always so half-assed...the NHL never fails to display that it's just barely one of the 'major' sports whenever it puts on an event. Poor production values, D-list celebrities judging, D-list music acts....every single time. They'd be further ahead to streamline the production and stick to the actual skill events, and make them ultra-competitive.
  12. Between now and the next time we play the Sens, someone needs to sit Xhekaj down and explain to him that it's okay to take an instigator penalty during a tank year. Tkachuk shouldn't be able to get that close and run his mouth, then be saved by the linesmen without eating any punches.
  13. That's where I'm at too. Going to have to start streaming some series I missed out on when they originally aired to fill in the evening TV hours I guess.
  14. Caufield out for the season news was a real gut-punch....my one reason to watch games in their entirety on the regular in this rocky season is now gone. This is great for the tank I guess, but I'm still pissed. The 'hockey gods' can go F themselves!
  15. Depleted by injuries yet again...should lose...which means they will probably find a way to win.
  16. Bad night for the tank, but I'm happy that Caufield scored. I want him to bag 40+ no matter how much the losses pile up.
  17. It sure does. Will be glad when Monahan is back, and hopefully then Drouin will be back in the press box where he belongs.
  18. I didn't waste my time watching this game, watched WJC gold game instead. Good result for the tank, unfortunate that Caufield didn't score. Was kind of hoping that Wifi would jump/demolish Kreider...or even Trouba, but no such luck. Sounds like this game had little to no entertainment value.
  19. He's toast, period. Injured all the time, ineffective when he is healthy enough to play. If he were a horse, you'd take him out behind the barn and put him down.
  20. I felt like both were cut and dry calls that were made correctly; the first was a player in the crease making contact with the goaltender's head while in the act of shooting, and the second was a player pitchforking the goaltender's pad into the net after he had saved and covered the puck with said pad.
  21. I'm not buying the notion that it was a bad call. A player should not be able to hit the goalie in the head with his ass while standing in the crease, then sweep the puck in, and have the goal count.
  22. I'd like management to loan him to Kladno for the remainder of the season, on the condition that Jagr drags him to the gym and works with him at practice.
  23. A loss where Caufield/Suzuki produce a couple of goals would be a great result for this evening.
