Oh look Neil and another worthless scrub fighting people with 10 times their talent. Continue being irrelevant guys.

 

[lamaroo]

Useless fucks picking fights with star players.

 

[Cake Boss]

PRETEND KARLSSON GETTING HIS ASS WOOPED BY A ROOKIE

 

[Red_Man]

:lol :lol useless goon went after Parenteau first, enjoy fighting all season at the bottom of the standings Neil.

 

[OriginofHysteria]

Lol just got the ps4 destiny bundle...traded in destiny for FIFA lol

 

[Cake Boss]

Dat leadership by dem habtants getting suckered in by 4th liners and rookies lol.

 

[imBask]

Lol just got the ps4 destiny bundle...traded in destiny for FIFA lol

you shouldve played a bit of Destiny, it's fun for a while

 

[MetatronM]

Hayes' penalty shot attempt was downright Sedin-esque.

But Zucc's shootout goal was sick. Gonna need a gif of that one.

 

[Red_Man]

Luckily for the Sens our PP is awful

 

[Samyy]

The optimism from the Leafs fans on HFBoards after one preseason game is adorable.

Meh let em enjoy it, its probably going to be a long painful season.

 

[OriginofHysteria]

Idk haha I just heard nothing but bad things

Not worth getting hopes up over 1 pre-season game against a team basically icing a AHL goalie.

 

[imBask]

Idk haha I just heard nothing but bad things

"for a while" was the important part

 

[Red_Man]

Karlsson, such defense

 

[Cake Boss]

Pretend Karlsson with much leadership by sitting out the entire game with his penalties

 

[imBask]

What a stupid penalty Parenteau

 

[WrenchNinja]

Who's winning

 

[Red_Man]

I see Melnyk cheaped out on glass installation.

You can tell Moen knows his job is gone because he's actually hitting people tonight.

 

[Cake Boss]

I wish the fan was Philips instead.

 

[zroid]

SOOOO CLOSE!

 

[Red_Man]

AG hurt.

Welp.

Edit: he's back. Gun put away.

 

[Wingfan19]

Good to see Detroit's 5 on 3 set up is still complete shit. Wings are still having trouble scoring goals and it's getting worrisome. They've only scored 11 goals in 7 games.

 

[lamaroo]

Nice dive there

 

[zroid]

I love Kozun.

 

[Silexx]

BABBBBBBBYYY!

 

[Red_Man]

Emelin and Buds cost them this game. Kids played well though, although Gallagher hasn't looked great all preseason, he needs to pick it up.

 

[Cake Boss]

BABBBBBBBBBBBYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

Dat Hoffman speed tho, how can this kid stay out of the lineup, no choice but to play in the top 9 now.

 

[Red_Man]

.

That suppose to be from Hfboards? Habs had 8 PP's I think and were garbage on it. Therrien should be working that every day until Wednesday.

 

[Cake Boss]

Man even though its only preseason, the Legwand signing looks to be another MacArthur signing, just really smart on the puck, great passer, great skater, never seems to make a mistake and just great all around.

There has to be a trade involving Condra and Greening, they need to GTFO out of the organization.

MacArthur- Turris- Stone
Ryan- Zibby- Chiasson
Hoffman- Legwand- Lazar
Smith- Pageau- Neil

 

[lamaroo]

.

Did you post these?

 

[bonesmccoy]

Kozun played more effective NHL regular season minutes in that game than Orr and McLaren have in their entire careers.

If he's not on the NHL roster it'll be a Scandal.

 

[Kuro Madoushi]

The optimism from the Leafs fans on HFBoards after one preseason game is adorable.

We dominated a team that pretty much just got off the bus.....whereas we had a 3 day wait.

Even Cleary wouldn't have saved this team.

 

[MetatronM]

So at this point I'd have the opening night lineup as something along the lines of:

Kreider-Brassard-Zuccarello
Hagelin-St.Louis-Nash
Duclair-Miller-Fast
Glass-D.Moore-Stempniak
Malone

McDonagh-Girardi
Staal-Boyle
J.Moore-Klein
Hunwick

Lundqvist
Talbot


One last chance for the kids tomorrow against the Devs.

 

[zroid]

Based Kozun

The most important part of tonights game for me was that Robidas looked good and Percy would probably be fine on the 3rd pairing.
Also if this is Dion on his proper side then what the fuck were we doing the last few years? He looked great.

This has nothing to do with what side he is playing on
if phaneuf moves his feet and doesn't handle his stick like it's a mop stuck in mud then he's effective

He becomes a detriment when he doesn't try and he does that far too often.

 

[MetatronM]

Here's Zucc juking Crawford into another zip code in the shootout tonight.



Scrub Squad is playing against the Devils tomorrow.

Forwards: Anthony Duclair, Jesper Fast, Carl Hagelin, Ryan Haggerty, Kevin Hayes, Marek Hrivik, Oscar Lindberg, Matthew Lombardi, Ryan Malone, J.T. Miller, Dominic Moore, Chris Mueller
Defensemen: Dan Girardi, Matt Hunwick, Steve Kampfer, Kevin Klein, Mike Kostka, John Moore
Goalies: Cam Talbot, Henrik Lundqvist

I took Zuccarello in my hockey pool at school, so I hope he has a good year lol.

 

[Quick]

Dat Kozun goal.

DAMN.

 

[BigJonsson]

So Nylander?

 

[Samyy]

So Nylander?

no
back to Sweden

 

[BigJonsson]

no
back to Sweden

Soon

 

[Calamari41]

The Angels are fuckin' killing me.

 

[DopeyFish]

So Nylander?

I keep fighting with myself when trying to figure out if he should stay or not

He's really defensively responsible, but makes some really questionable neutral zone and zone entry plays.

He's been putting himself in great position to score but never really finishes.

Makes some great passes and setups. Handles board play a lot better than i thought he would.

It almost seems like he needs to learn intricacies of NHL play and beef up (mainly core strength) a bit... which i don't think he'd get from either AHL or SEL.

dat Pujols tho

Building strength does not happen during the NHL/hockey season, that is all done in the off-season. I don't want him in the AHL because then we'll have to hear about every single hot streak (#Freelander) and every cold streak (#Bustlander) from the media mouth breathers.

Core strength certainly does come from playing in season. It's not the same as just building muscle. It's about using your muscles right.

No matter how much training you do in the off season you're never quite 'game ready'.

 

[Calamari41]

dat Pujols tho

Yeah that was nice but god damn, first one in two games

I assumed you mean't putting on some muscle
