Bruins stay losing.
The Leafs are a somewhat unbalanced team with excellent forward talent, weak defense, and inconsistent but potentially solid goaltending. That combination can be really streaky.
To bad we FLEECED the Stars in the process.
Has to be DD moved to the wing. Eller's garbage on the wing, meanwhile I don't think DD's game would be affected at all by being a winger.
Something like
Patches-AGally-BGally
Sekac-Pleks-PAP
DD-Eller-Bournival
Prust-Malhota-Weise
Ideally we'd trade DD, but can't win em all.
Someone (Quick) photoshop Kessel riding a giant bubble to explain our team.

Given the Ducks' propensity for dumb turnovers, it isn't surprising then that the game went the way it did last night.

So pens goalie Fleury and two others might have mumps
Out of the Rangers' 15 wins on the season, Rick Nash has points in 14 of them. The one he didn't get a point in? He scored the game-winning goal in the shootout. He has points in 24 of the Rangers' 29 games this season and is still currently on pace for the franchise record for goals in a season.
If he can keep it going, he could be in the conversation for the Hart by the end of the year. The Rick Nash of June feels like a pretty distant memory at this point.

Apparently there was a 11-2-1 run before the Olympics. things started to go off the rails after that. migh've been something similar earlier in the season too. they got off to a good start as everyone knows.
wat!?
They are in the mix right now. I'm not sure how pacing and last years point totals really factor in.
I've already said prior I'm fine with them being losers. Problem is, I don't think they consider removing Claude.

Calgary is almost a playoff team in the West, they have the same amount of points as LA. Edmonton is five miles from being a playoff team in any league.
AGally is only the 4th player in Canadiens history to score a hat trick before the age of 21. An insane stat considering the history of this team.
Yea, that's what I would go with as well, although I wouldn't mind switching Bournival with PAP just because he's such a good puck receiver and DD & PAP have looked decent together at times. Best we can do until DD is moved, send Ghetto back to the AHL so he can get decent minutes until a spot opens up for him via trade. Feels so good to have a legit first line with a legit center and 40 G scorer.

Edmonton would be in second to last place in the East, up on Currlina by a point.

Can we ask for fantasy hockey trade advice in here?

Sweet. Ten team deep dynasty league (25 roster spots) with two starting goalie slots so everyone basically carries 4 goalies. Id be trading Bernier, Nick Bjugstad, and Mike Richards for Ryan Miller and Gabriel Landeskog. Fair deal? I could use LAndeskog's hits.
That's exactly what I was saying to my wife last night after the win
Haven't seen him much outside the AHL, has he been actually performing for the Leafs?
Was great in pre-season, decent for a few real games, then he got injured
I don't think the Leafs want to let him go, there's just no room right now. Hoping he clears waivers.
100% true.. the positive side in this is that goalies are young, most of the D is young and with experience comes consistency. Which end, good or bad (skill wise), will these players end up is somewhat unknown. Except for a player like Rielly.
I'd much rather have him than Panik
First D'Amigo now Kozun....
Now let's hope no one is smart enough to claim him

How many good years do you think Miller has left? Long term this is Bernier + Bjugstad for Landeskog and with Bjugstad trending upward I don't think a solid goaltender like Bernier is worth the extra hits. Looking at it from both sides, I know I'd be a lot more excited if I was the other guy.
As an aside, Bjugskog and Landestad would be amazing hockey names.
yeah, he's the odd my out only because Smith is a centre...
Kozun deserves a real NHL shot though.. he's a guy that works hard and never quits on the puck. I do hope nobody picks him up though! Another good depth player to have on the team for sure.
what even happened to him? I saw him running off the ice but I have no idea how he got hurt.
yea good point... I guess Nonis thinks Ashton has a better chance of getting claimed since he's a big guy

Those thug, goon-ass Leafs players got to him.
I actually would like to see what happened too, if anybody has a clip or gif on them.

Thanks for the advice. That was his offer to me so it kind of makes sense that it favours him. I'll see if I can tweak it.

If I remember right that was after a chance where he dove to the ice and hit the boards, must've dislocated his shoulder upon impact or so :/ he was definitely holding his shoulder and ran straight for the locker room.

He took a hit from one leafs player, got up fine but then skated a bit and got hit awkwardly by Holland and got injured and went straight to the bench

Palmieri just got checked... Wasn't even hard enough to push him off his skates
And for Ashton.... I don't think the leafs can do anything until he is done the substance abuse program

Unfortunately, this.
If someone can give him playing time, I'm all for it. Sucks we can't send Ashton down instead because I think Kozun could break out.
