I have no idea how Martin Marincin is playing an NHL level game in 2018

He's actually not playing terrible

 

[hockeeyyy]

F*** Mike Liambas. One of the most disturbing hits I have ever seen in hockey. Good on Ban Fanelli for not only coming back, but finding a positive space to use his injury to help others.

Give it time

 

[bukwas]

That was a great piece on Fanelli.

The Leafa could always score goals. It blows my mind how Dubas thought adding another scorer like Tavares was smarter than addressing a team weakness (which every Leafs manager seems to overlook).

Does anyone say the same thing about the Sharks going out and getting Karlsson?
Burns and Vlasic are 2 of the better defensemen in the league.
It wasn't much (for the value of the player), but the Sharks also had to pay to acquire Karlsson while the Leafs gave up nothing but money.

We shoulda locked up Polak long term instead of wasting money on Judas Bed Sheets.

Sparks looked great for most of the first.

That's your definition of great?

 

[Riddum]

Leafs has the be most overrated team. They're favorite to win the cup this season? Lol! With that horrible defense and their softness?

 

[Givememoneyback]

That's your definition of great?

Before the Toews goal, when the shots were 10 to 2 or so, he was solid. Since then, well, he's been slightly better than Ward.

The Leafs will put together a good season. It's tough to call anyone a favorite right now. But that center depth is gonna be hard to ignore.

 

[Halla]

A cup contender? Easy there pal. They arent going anywhere with this goaltending and defense.

vegas went to the finals last year. ppl had them pegged as a lotto team

also Andersen was 4th in vezina voting last year. your comment is pure ignorance

 

[Halla]

I think most people consider him a top-tier center. Most of the hate he gets is more sarcasm as a response to people claiming he's, for instance, the most dangerous scorer in the league.

He has the most ES goals since he entered the league. 2 more than 2nd place McDavid, in 18 less games.
at ES who is more dangerous?

McDavid scored 34 more ES points than Matthews. He also scored 16 more ES points than the number two guy,

So... him.

But see, here's what Leaf fans do that starts the hyperbole. They (you) move the goal line to the exact point where they need it. PP points are a thing too. They count.

Morgan Rielly quietly moves into a tie for 3rd in league scoring, tops among d-men

 

[King In The North]

All even again.

It isn’t quiet.

It’s 3 games in.

 

[Benedict Kovalchuk]

Looks like Tavares brought the Weight school of defense with him to Toronto.

yeah and matthews was on the 2nd unit. now he is on the first unit.

goals/60 count too, and matthews dominates that because he scores his goals in 18 mins while others get 20+

you still didnt answer the question though. who is a more dangerous scorer 5 on 5?

 

[Givememoneyback]

What was Dermott doing there?

how long you have that one saved up for?

3 months?

18 minutes vs. 20+ can be a bit overstated. That's all.

I checked the replay -- he was elbowed in the head about five seconds before that goal. It should have been called.
