Wake up to see that WE WON!!!!! I never realized how annoying the Avs announcers were until I was watching the highlights on NHL.com, that's creeping up to Pens level annoyance right there.
Anways, win it for Kronner is a success and it sounds like the hit was worse than the injury, still a concussion but not a major one and will travel with the team to Phoenix, so hopefully he isn't out that long.
VICTORY!!!!
Sorry 19 & 21, stay safe bud with whatever is going on.
New Jersey is still trying to be the first team to not win a game, and so far they are doing great work at that.
Edit 20 or something: Monster (beside the two goals given up) has been spectacular lately, he's been pulling out some Hasek like saves at times, it is really nice to see him playing great out there and getting the wins.

Very cool.
Game: Blouses
Yeah whats Sammy talking about? Most fans I know have been saying Leafs were extremely lucky to be 6-1 and could have easily been 1-6 the way they were playing in games. Goaltending held them in most games, so I'll let Bernier off the hook for his shit goal last night.
Dude, you've been missing out. I always try to get the Avs feed when the Wings are playing them, the way they call Detroit goals is comedy gold. Like, it's way beyond just being homers, so much so that I can't even get upset with things like how they called the Mcleod hit on Kronwall("Taste of his own medicine!") and just sit back and laugh at the absurdity. Helps that the Avs rarely beat the Wings nowadays.
Hmm? I know a bunch of bandwagoners, they talking about it being our year last weekend.
Bandwagoners don't count, by definition they don't watch hockey, only get on board when a team is winning.
That's why I'm annoyed, its been flooding my news feed from the same people who gave me a ton of shit for being a fan just 2 years go
Toronto is a funny town with the Leafs. So many people here like to play the hate card and get really down on the Leafs cause of the high ticket prices and the long drought of playoff success.
But deep down when the team is doing really well, as evidenced by last year's playoff round birth, this city goes apeshit. I couldn't care less, I love when everyone gets behind them bandwagon or not.
Reality is, we're down 2 of our Top 6, one of our better defensive forwards, a subpar and possibly won't even be playing Dman and we're 6-2-0, both losses only by 1 goal and one of which was an unlucky fluke else we'd be at worse 6-1-1.
Go ahead and say we're playing poorly or could play better all you want. That just means two things. We still win when we do, and we have no where to go but up.
EDIT: Not directed at you guys Samyy or yyz, just in general.

Kick them in the balls, done.
I hear you, I'll take the record, and "finding ways to win" blah blah, but this team NEEDS to play better. I don't take injury excuses anymore after seeing Ottawa last year do what they did without Karlsson and Spezza the entire year. Every team has to deal with it. If the Leafs don't play better and limit the scoring chances, they're gonna get hammered tomorrow night in Chicago. I'm not looking forward to that game.

C'mon, there's some threads in OT that are just pure gold.
Ekblad. But we might need to check his birth certificate cause that doesn't look like a 17 year old's beard.

Really quiet from Pantherland today. No practice, no media stuff, not even team tweets. Would be weird to give the team a day off considering the game tomorrow and a 2 day break after Saturday's game. Something could be up, trade, coaching change, we'll see.
I'm glad I can look at the standings and see that Dallas is pathetic. Only three more points than a team with zero wins? Sogood.gif

Ekblad is a badass name so I am totally on board tanking for him. That beard is crazy though, he must be on some crazy fucking hormones to grow that at his age.
I am not sure it counts as tanking if the team is this bad...

This. Complaining about them every other day is just as annoying as seeing them.
If you put him beside Burns, they look like they could fill in for the missing link in the evolution chartEkblad. But we might need to check his birth certificate cause that doesn't look like a 17 year old's beard.

I don't know what a new GM would do with this team... who the hell do you move that you could actually get something for?
We have some young guys that aren't paid all that much that people might want, but why the hell do you trade them when you're building long term? I mean I'd trade Kimmo, Streit, and Vinny to cup contenders at the deadline, but no one is gonna take Hartsy's contract.

Yeah, I don't see many possible moves short term. Kimmo and Mesz coming off the cap after this year will help some...

I am not sure Ed has enough time for a long rebuild. They will try and do something to speed it up.
LeBrun on TSN radio yesterday:
If he can be consistent and play like he has to start the season he should get the starter no problem. Parros also practiced for the first time today which is great news.

Sounds like Travis Moen for us the last couple years before we signed Prust

Lol, Jeff O'Neill called out Reimer for leaving the game last night and then practicing this morning.

He practiced today? Isn't that what he did after Gionta hit him? Seems kind of dumb for a guy with the concussion history like him.

The Leafs will gladly take Giroux off your hands while you rebuild. Morgan Rielly and Frederik Gauthier are 2 good pieces to build with. Plus a few expiring contracts to the Fyers to balance out the money...
