He has a lot of reasons to be happy for Nashville recently. Shame he can't be here to celebrate them.

Wait, what happened to him? No wonder I didn't see him when we traded for Legwand and we wanted Holland's head for trading Jarnkrok.
Beat ya to this!
Maybe. But at some point you just have to assume that common sense would take over.

This is not nice!
He's moved on to bigger, better things...

I still remember him laughing his ass off when you guys aquired Tootoo LOL!
Don't get me wrong, this season's obviously over. Pandering to season ticket holders in March is sad though.
Also a web conference.

Didn't he bail as soon as they got bad or something?
NHL to institute street hockey rules, no slap shots.

If you were a STH would you prefer silence given the circumstances?

The fortunate thing about Landeskog looking like he was being reamed in that music video is that we can post it every time we lose.
When we played hockey in PE in high school (grade 11), the rule was "no high shots/shots above ground level". If you scored with a shot like that it just didn't count. It was bullshit.
To be fair, the Leafs beat the Ducks back in October when they were playing well.
The Leaf team you're playing against tonight is the one that allowed two pairs of shorthanded goals on the same powerplay in the span of a week...

Sounds like our team
In toronto, the rule tends to be... if you did a dumbass move like slap it and miss the net, you best sprint to get it.

I hope he puts a couple of the lazy fuckers on the IR. Let some prospects from Bingo who give a shit play.

Baffled that Pittsburgh didn't get a veteran backup for Fleury. Zatkoff is good but he's a rookie.
Heh, I'm pretty sure its a common rule in PE and even in some ball hockey leagues. I just know it was a rule we always enforced in our street hockey games when I was young lol

We had a giant punching thing that you held as a blocker and a baseball glove/stick.
Only thing they didn't allow was slapshots.
Even though we did it anyways.
Shane: enforcing it in street hockey? Cmon!
Yep.
I don't think Gillis really needs to defend his actions. Maybe he can retool the team successfully, maybe not.
There's no upside for to portraying yourself as weak or vulnerable or remorseful.

LAICH!

I like Laich!!!!
Woooooooo
We often played with a tennis ball, and slap shots generally aren't that appropiate for keeping the ball in play. lol edit: I said enforces, I meant enforced, as in past tense, when I was younger. but I did say was... ah well. clarification needed perhaps!

I find that most people can't even hit the net with a wrister.
We just invested 120 in a net that had screens attached to the side/top. Stopped most pucks/street balls from going behind it.
Well, it's more grey area than common sense. The nature of the post and the intention were not of someone trying to spoil anything. It's an interesting discussion and probably should be addressed at some point. This ideally isn't the place though.
In the meantime, no hockey spoilers!
Fair enough, when I was younger our options were generally a couple street locations, and the school parking lot. So keeping things contained were generally the best course of action.
edit: fuck you Kunitz.

Same thing in elementary school for me. I couldn't help myself, I kept putting it up top shelf lol.
This is also the Leafs team that has seemed to revert back to the one that can't win in regulation to save their lives.
Which is especially bad now as I have no clue if my body will even allow me to stay up that late.
I wake up at 6am Kave, if I can do it so can you!
I'll probably sleep if we're losing after the 2nd 
You're also much more youngry then I am.
Cats have nine lives!

I didn't even know we "retooled"... I know getting rid of Blake and Hagman is something, and having youth step up is something else as well... But I thought it was just natural evolution for a team to have their prospects turn into producing players?
Our last two losses have been shootout losses...
Problem is that when you're good for a few years, chances are your prospects won't turn into good, producing players unless you get lucky/have awesome scouts. (E.g. Detroit)
