I haven't been able to watch the Avs due to time constraints + no means to do so. I'm only slightly disappointed, because they suck.
Yeah the Fly Guys haven't been playing well either...
But I'm addicted to the pain
yet his twitter handle is still Marner93...Gilmour offered Marner his 93 and he turned it down lol
Statement re: Sparks from his facebook group
Over the past four years, I have had the pleasure of getting to know Garret Sparks and being fortunate enough to not only be his business associate but also to call him a close friend. The events that occurred in the online goalie forum were merely due to Garret defending a member of the group who suffers from a disability. Since the mid-2000s before his career even took off, Garret has been involved in online goalie communities. As his career took off he remained a part of them, including the one I have been involved in called GGSUnited. Garret would always take time out of his day to talk to other goalies both young and old about whatever they wanted to know from him. He treated everyone in the group with respect and did not let where he was in his career from thinking he was above others.
Garret, myself and a few other of our friends created a camp for these members to meet four years ago. He wanted to give back to the community in more ways than he already has. He always will put his reputation aside to share his love of hockey and goaltending with others. He is loved by so many goalies around the globe, it is a shame that this event was blown out of proportion.
It is important to take the time to say that this issue was simply Garret protecting someone who could not defend himself. Garret was so invested in helping this individual follow his dreams of becoming a goalie. Garret invested his time and efforts to stand up for this individual, showing that he cared deeply to the well being of someone who was being mistreated and standing up for what he believed in.
The GGSU nature has been one of playful words and harmless banter. It is what has created the atmosphere and community we have worked so hard to develop over the years. It has never been acceptable to make fun of an individual who cannot stand up for himself, nor will we allow it to happen.
While we do not condone some of the things posted, we would like to say that we completely support Garret's honest intentions and stand behind him and only apologize that this has snowballed into something much bigger than it needed to be.
On behalf of GGSU,

I also think Radulov is better than Kovalev, is this Civil War part 2?
I don't know if this is a heel turn, but #TeamKovalev for pure skill. Radulov is a better, more complete, 200 foot workhorse of a player. But Kovy could not give a single fuck and still score 4 goals if he wanted to. Laziest Hab ever though. If he'd had Radulov's intensity and work ethic he'd have been a first ballot HOFer and would never have even been available for trade to the Habs.
Bish locked it, but...Jesus fucking Christ lol.
Not laughing at the poster specifically, just the whole thread and the situation OP was in. Though, I'm sure we've all been there in terms of awkwardness.

i was just watching this sportsnet projection video for how the Vegas roster will shake out
they suggested they will get Tyler Johnson from Tampa. that can't be right, can it? which 7 forwards are the Bolts protecting ahead of him???
edit: hmmm... I just realized their cap situation. And he's a RFA. I guess the thinking is they might not have a choice but to let him go. But surely they'd trade him rather than let him get claimed for free.

lol no way Johnson would be exposed.
But they'll probably want to arrange a trade or 2 since they'll have a few good forwards who will be exposed.

I feel like Tampa, Anaheim, and Columbus are all teams that have the potential to lose a really good player unless they make a few trades to make room

Alex Killorn will look great in a Habs jersey.
Yes he would and he's a good Maritime kid
I'd also take JT Brown as well

So I guess Subban is going to get booed by all of the Canadian fanbases?
Winnipeg fans boo all the star players. I think it's due to a complex mix of deep-seated jealousy, malice, and racism.So I guess Subban is going to get booed by all of the Canadian fanbases?

The Leafs played really well last night. One of their best games yet, if not their best.

Ehh...Rinne has been good the past few games so I'm not sure. Saros certainly doesn't look significantly worse. Rinne's problem is consistency, and we still don't know how Saros fares in that regard.
Saros is much better than our other backup, though. Mazanec's probably done after this season.
*Pikma will remember that*let's just shorten it to the Pikma Point
wait that's redundant with loser point. oh well...JK

Empty-netter. That'll probably do it.
Preds continue to suck on the road.
Oh hey, another empty netter. Because why not?

Russo put out a pretty decent article this morning about the star power in the central and how the Wild are the only team without one.
Chicago: Kane, Toews, Panarin
Colorado: Duchene, MacKinnon
Dallas: Seguin, Benn
Nashville: Forsberg, Subban, Johanson (?)
St Louis: Tarasenko, Schwartz (?)
Winnipeg: Laine, Scheifele, Wheeler (?)
Minnesota: ???
Have a bunch of good prospects that might amount to 50-60 point players but nobody that can get to the ppg level. And with the way the team is constructed the likelihood of getting to that bottom-5 and drafting a star is incredibly low. Not good enough to challenge for a cup but not bad enough to be a lottery team.

I'd say Byfuglien counts too. Winnipeg has some rill gud players
Ah yes, the treadmill of mediocrity. The absolute worst place for a team to be in. Us leaf fans are familiar with that oneMinnesota: ???

Barrie would be on that list if his defense wasn't ass. Johnson would be on that list if his defense wasn't ass this year.

#Coyotes are now 21-0-4 in last 25 games vs. #Oilers, the longest point streak in franchise history.
I mean that's just sad.

I mean that's just sad.
I don't know what's worse, the fact the Yotes' largest point streak is against the Oilers or the Oilers not being able to defeat the Yotes for that amount of time.
