AROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Snizzbone breaks his goalless drought!

AROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

AROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

AROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

 

[iLLmAtlc]

Wow Leafs are showcasing that depth, uncle Leo for 2 and 4thlander with the insurance

 

[Kuro Madoushi]

Leafs finally win a back to back...?! Both in regulation?!?!?

Columbus is super hot streak too. Jesus...best team in the league. I was expecting this last season not this season.

 

[HariKari]

I thought we were friends.

Yotes need these losses to stack up, make it unbearable for ownership. Still in single digit ROWs.

Well done Leafs.

 

[Yawnier]

Lol Marner, Matthews, Nylander and Hyman on the ferris wheel.

These girls going nuts over Nylander, lmao

 

[Marvie_3]

What a dumb fucking team. I hate this. I hate that I watched that, I hate that I care.

Marvie your team is ass.

Yeah i know. Thanks for noticing. <3

 

[zroid]

These girls going nuts over Nylander, lmao

lol I was gonna say, Willy's pretty popular

 

[Holiday]

I'm ready for this break to feel three times as long as it really is.

 

[Red_Man]

Two tough losses considering how well they played with 4 major regulars out. Nothing to be ashamed of, but Gallagher can get shot into the moon.

First back-to-back win of the season!

Really? Lol

Considering how much Dopey has been pumping their tires, this is pretty surprising.

For real man, it's almost routine that it happens.

I think this is Andersen's first back-to-back start, and it worked this time. Not that Babcock should just start him the rest of the season, but it's clear how much confidence he has in Freddy at this point.

 

[Red_Man]

Wild beat the Habs then steam roll the Rangers.

Boudreau is one hell of a regular season coach.

 

[Quick]

Lol Marner, Matthews, Nylander and Hyman on the ferris wheel.

These girls going nuts over Nylander, lmao

Can't find a full episode online, but did find a Leafs-only cut.

All the girls flocked to Willy. Marner, Matthews, and Hyman were just like "you want a picture with us?" looool

 

[eyeless]

andersen now has a .923 sv%, nice climb back from the approximately .-999 sv% after the first 5 or so games

also first time i've noticed us with a positive goal differential

 

[Quick]

Leafs Christmas presents segment.

I assumed Matthews lived with his parents, looks like that's not the case. At least not full-time.

As previously established, Rielly can't cook. Looks like Leo knows this lol.

 

[Unhandled Exception]

I just told a friend of mine who is casually interested in hockey about the Jackets so far this year

"Do you know who their coach is"

"Is it Roy"

"......"

"IS IT TORTS"

"ITS TORTS"

"AMAZING"

 

[DopeyFish]

Watching road to outdoor classics

That rink where the kid is skating 2 minutes in is where i learned to skate as a kid

Wonder if he picked that up during military service?

Alex Debrincat cut from the WJC roster? Whaat

 

[CreeperBlocks]

Merry Christmas everyone!

He just didn't Debringit during camp tho.

Somebody had to go to make room for Dopey's greatest prospect of all time

 

[Red_Man]

Hows Ho-Sang doing anyways?

 

[CreeperBlocks]

The Bobcast had great stories about Bobby Mac and his experiences with the World Juniors in the 90s

http://www.tsn.ca/bobcast

The Snake Lady story made me laugh

 

[Zaraki_Kenpachi]

Wow Lundqvist game up 4 goals on 13 shots? I wonder if he'll bounce back or he's finally ready to be put out to pasture. He seems out of it every game I see him play this year.

 

[Razorskin]

How can we be sure it's not Joel Lundqvist under the mask?

 

[yyzjohn]

Little known fact if you go by DopeyStats™ he's better than McDavid.

 

[Socreges]

Yeah. He'd allowed 3 goals in the previous 3 games. But after last night it's time to hang up the pads.

Don't hold it against him. It was against the Wild.

Offensive juggernauts.

 

[Silexx]

He just didn't Debringit during camp tho.

All your recent hot fire posts have just been negated by this one.

 

[FUBAR McDangles]

Oh hey Eric Staal has points in 7 straight games. 5 goals, 5 assists in that span. 11 + 17 for 28 points in 33 games this season.

Not as washed up as many expected at the end of last year.

Did santy bring you an X1 with tittyfall 2 yet?

Nope, I've been bad, so I got a PS4 with Uncharted 4 and FFXV instead.

 

[Yawnier]

Do any of you guys have Tittyfall 2 on PS4, or are all you Tittyfall 2 folks on the Xboner One

 

[Chris R]

Pre-merry Christmas you filthy animals.

No games for three nights sucks, even more so after the feel good ending last night.

Playoffs? &#129300;

 

[Cake Boss]

Wait, are those the new playoff standings the NHL is using? &#129300;

 

[Socreges]

NHL.com is telling me the Leafs are 9 points out of a playoff spot, though. Have they not updated? &#129300;

 

[zroid]

I would say so. Provided that playoff seeds are decided by goal differential and not points.

That would certainly make it easier

NHL.com is telling me the Leafs are 9 points out of a playoff spot, though. Have they not updated? &#65533;&#65533;

they're 5 points out with 3 games in hand

Right. So you guys are fine so long as you just play the Coyotes and Avs the rest of the way.

Well they're 2-1-1 against the Coyotes and Avs so I'm not so sure about that

2-0 against the Capitals and Flyers though, so would gladly play them the rest of the way am i rite?

Point being 3 days ago you guys were at .500 with a -7 differential. &#129300;

-2, although they were still 3rd in the Atlantic in GD at the time I think

I am glad we could have this lovely chat about the Leafs, Merry Christmas Soc!

 

[ElephantShell]

How is Detroit a -18??? Is this the year they finally miss the playoffs?

So the leafs are making the playoffs? While being at the bottom 10 in the league for the majority of the season?

I guess the vets are waking up &#129300;&#129300;

 

[zroid]

by the way just a reminder that the NHL.com goal tallies are erroneous because they count each shootout win as 1 goal scored. that will explain the discrepancy you see between the actual goal difference and what you see at NHL.com or any site which gets its numbers directly from them.

-7

Are you counting the shootout winners as goals?

Surprise! Having 3-4 games in hand the majority of the season tends to have that effect!

 

[Socreges]

There are shootout winners in 6-0 and 4-1 wins? &#129300;
