Wow, James Mirtle is leaving the Globe to join "The Athletic". Dunno if anyone has been following but they have basically been scooping up virtually all of the best Toronto-based sportswriters. That's great news, except the fact that the majority of their content will be behind a paywall. 
Who knows, I might just subscribe.

For the Leafs they only have discounts on Kadri/Rielly/Lupul jerseys

Wow seems like a risky move for him - who knows if that site will stick around, paywall sites seem risky. Maybe he got wind of potential Globe and Mail layoffs coming down the pipe.

Maybe just DD and a 4th
To get rid of that albatross of a contract I might actually accept that.

I'll throw in Andrighetto too so you don't have to use Tom fucking Pyatt
Word. They must have made a pretty good pitch. :lol
Mirtle is actually going to be the EIC so maybe that was what convinced him

I currently have a trial for The Athletic. Was for 30 days through the Android app.
I think I'll end up subscribing. 53 dollars a year seems reasonable to me. Local sports journalism is hurting.
Cringe.

I was debating getting a Jets Heritage Classic jersey from that sale, since they had no Caps unis, but then I realized I have another jersey coming in and maybe I should stop with the credit card for next month
The PlayStation Store sale might just empty my wallets completely, depending on whether or not they add additional games for Black Friday.
Also tempted to pick up a jersey from that Sportchek sale.

Yeah, I was thinking of using that 10% code for Infinite Warfare + Modern Warfare Remastered.

Cody Bass and Matt Carle on waivers.
The writing was on the wall for Carle, and I suppose the Preds are waiving Bass to keep Watson around. Bitetto and Salomaki have been skating for a while now; it's only a matter of time before they come off of IR.

Sounds edgy, haha

How long is Lack out for?
[Fantasy hockey warning]
Debating between swapping Elliott for either Ward or Lehner. Ward is hot right now, but I expect him to cool down and Lehner to pick things up. 🤔🤔🤔
Ward will only sit for B2B games
He has a concussion so it's hard to say. :/
3 points in 13 games......survey says YES!
His protest is affecting Canada's team. Really uncalled for for him to bring politics into the sport.

Welp, I cancelled the jersey order because it has no patch. I'm hoping the local shop will be sewing those on.
RealSports says I need to order it separately for $20. But it comes SEPARATELY. Why would I pay $20 for a patch that isn't on the jersey?

Having the top PK in the league probably doesn't hurt, for starters.
Plus I think the defense has just played a lot better lately. They've been playing a bit faster and more aggressive this year now that they actually have some skill up front and it took some time to adjust.
And even Ward has his hot streaks. He had some last year. I do expect him to cool down like you said but if the D and PK keep it up it might help offset that.
