This week of practicing with a very surly TMac should have got the teams attention and have them ready to go. Hopefully they don't run into out of this world goaltending.

and again...
Good point about the goaltending. So far all 3 of the goalies the Oilers have faced are top 10 in the NHL in save pct this season. That will be 4 if they face Anderson.
If Anderson does start... no doubt he stands on his head.
I am completely expecting a shit 1st period. Too many days off, will take a period to get into the game imo.
So as long as we don't dig a hole in the first we stand a chance.

Leaf fans on their board are already unhappy about the idea of him getting 13.5--If he gets 13.5 it could be fun. on both the leaf board and the main trade board the general idea from leaf fans is 10 a year
Aren't they just building the narrative so that once he gets 11-12 everyone will rejoice in that he took millions in discount?

Half of them worry, the other half think it is justified
will be fun watching them melt down in the process

Guess it's a question of what they should get vs what they do get. Just gotta hope Matthews plays hardball. If he is looking at the profits the leafs are making off him, he is justified in asking for the max. Same kind of argument Lebron made about NBA players. The cap limit lets teams make way more money off the upper tier players than the players are taking home themselves. Matthews is being sold to the biggest hockey market as the saviour, he deserves all the money he can get. No matter what he gets, the leafs are still going to make a profit off him thanks to the cap limit.
That all said, I wouldn't be surprised if Lou signs Matthews/Nylander/Marner all to 6Mx8 year deals, lol.

Just to distract from the Leafs focus, which should be beneficial in itself..
The LA Kings have Kopitar, you know, that one, the better player back, they have Dustin Brown back and both are playing the best they have looked in years. To add to that Muzzin is back to snuff after an out of sorts year last season. But in a strange bit of news Drew Doughty looks awfully and easily distracted out there. Tkachuk completely in his head in the game vs the Flames.
Some players get better after a lot of success. For some reason Drew Doughty has gotten worse. He's not been the smart player he once was.
In other news what a great story the LV team is. Good to see an expansion club have some initial success. AV's have been fun to watch as well and playing a very enjoyable brand of hockey.
It seems in the west that only Arizona will be truly awful this season.

As long as they don't win it all, I think that's a good thing. Offensive guys are paid based on their offensive totals (oh well if the team got scored on like crazy too), and those are the types of players all set to break the bank for the leafs to rip their team apart.
