Around the League 20 - Well.... we're waiting

[Wolfpuck]

Then Andersen lets in a wrister from way out.

Suck it, Andersen.

You love to see it.

I don't really care if Toronto gets Lafreniere. We still get their pick next year and it keeps him out of the division. Much rather them than Pittsburgh, Rags or CBJ.

I also want to see the Leafs forum go insane calling for their management to go scorched earth and trade Matthews and basically everyone.

Columbus eng, 2-0.

Suck it leafs.

Leafs roster isn't that great. They have their big 4 forwards and Rielly but that's about it. Their depth players range anywhere from slightly above average to absolute trash. Their 4th line basically didn't even play tonight. Not surprised with this result.

I checked and you’re 100% right. Clifford-Spezza-Gauthier combined for like 11 minutes of ice time. They probably skated like four shifts.

 

[A Star is Burns]

I don't hate the Leafs and their fans as much as most, but given some of the stupid statements there had been in the series thread, I found that result pretty satisfying.

 

[HisIceness]

Love it.

 

[Wolfpuck]

smh do they even care about hockey in Toronto?

Which is surprising bc some nights they put in more effort than their star players

The mutual lovefest really seems to grate the fans of other teams.

 

[Canes]

CBJ has Torts who's a top 5 coach in the NHL, one of the best d-pairings in the NHL with Werenski-Jones, a serviceable starting goalie and despite their forward group lacking top end talent they all completely buy in to Torts' system. Whoever they play is never going to have an easy time.

And Ferland fights in his first game back. Will he leave during the middle of the game now?

 

[Dishface]

Ferland starts off with a fight, forgot he was even on the Canucks.

 

[HisIceness]

Nope, Leafs must flip a coin for their new home. Heads Atlanta, Tails Hartford. No Quebec City as an option as that is just cruel and unusual punishment.

Also no one is showing up in Edmonton. Houston Oilers coming to an arena near you!

 

[Joe McGrath]

That guy has no interest in playing past his 30th birthday, or living past 50. He’s a tough prick, but f***s sake man take it easy.

Right?!?!? He's been concussed this year and missed games already and his first playoff, he goes out and fights? He is living in the wrong hockey era.

Wild are up 2-0 on Vancouver. Eric Staal has a couple assists.

 

[Brock Anton]

Well, he just speared a dude on the bench, so he ain't playing in game 2.

Loving how the play-in rounds have been "Opposite Day" relative to mainstream predictions so far. Now it's the Wild shutting out the Nucks LMAO!
