Just find a way to get Tom Wilson on this team.

Bubba Thudd hates this

Does Ovi pass up Mike Gartner on the all time goals list this season?

We have a few psychics on this board that should be able to answer definitively, when & where.

Literally nothing wrong with that hit.

Yeah except for the 5-7 full speed strides he took right into it lol. Dictionary definition of charging.

Ok I may have watched that after a few beers last night and after watching it again it is a blatant charge.

 

[Ivan13]

Yeah, I really don't get the fascination with the piece of human excrement.

Lol it happens

6 unanswered for Stars. Just what we didn't need, them waking up right before they play the Avs.

Two of their recent three wins were at home against bottom feeders. I'm still not convinced. But yeah the scheduled lined them up right to face the Avs right now.

We are one Zadorov trade away of being in the same boat so I'm not going to mock them for that.

That being said, I don't think the Leafs are built for the playoffs at all. They traded their grittiest player to us for our softest forward and dman.

Not even remotely in the same boat as the Leafs. Landeskog, Calvert, Johnson, Kadri, Cole. Hell, Calvert lead the league in fights last season.

We aren't even in the same stratosphere as the Leafs. We're not a team that can bully others around, but we damn sure have a HELL of a lot more grit/toughness/physicality than they do, and that's even if we traded Zadorov.

This and Mackinnon is a bull and Rants is not getting bullied. Leafs are butter.

Fair enough. I still think we're susceptible to getting bullied though, especially without Z.

Don't introduce logic into a Z conversation!

For real! Our future 1c doesn't deserve to be joked about that often.

Barrie's not getting $9M.

If Josi’s hometown discount is $9m, that puts Barrie’s at $7, $7.5m tops. It would’ve been incomparable and ludicrous to have paid him any more than that.

Cole probably would have had more fights too if Tom Wilson didn’t cave his face in.

 

[Bill Peckerskull]

LOL. That's almost as good as the Johnny Malkin one from a few years ago.

Yeah Buff gonna get his money lmao

Canucks are having some fun with the Kings. Doughty looks like a genius.

 

[dahrougem2]

Pettersson looks REAL good after a slow start.

 

[Balthazar]

Quinn Hughes got 3 assists tonight. Expect some annoying Canucks fans on the main board.

Edit: too late.

 

[Pokecheque]

Re: Kaapo Kaako, obviously he’s having some growing pains but it’s my belief that David Quinn might very well be the worst coach in the National Hockey League. He’s little more than a younger version of Randy Carlyle.

 

[The Abusement Park]

I didn’t think Svechnikov’s Michigan goal would be topped for awhile but Tkachuks winner vs the Preds might have just done that. What a f***ing goal.
