North!
Montreal is a team that isnt stacked with high top end talent but works/skate CRAZY hard every night.

We can learn a lot from that team. Endless pressure
I literally just said this to my Friend, the work ethic from the habs is top notch, and you are right there is no quit in them.

So Monahan and Gaudreau are struggling to score now in Calgary? They should move James Neale up to that top line...:sarcasm:

Man, McDavid is just on another level. I do think Matthews has 100 point potential, but it's just straight up disrespectful to put him in the same sentence as McDavid. For all his skill and speed, he actually forechecks super hard and does whatever he wants out there on offence. Matthews doesn't have that instinct in him.

And Draisaitl trying to keep pace with Ovechkin.

McDavid trying to keep pace with Carlson. :sarcasm:

Wow would you look at that; Boston winning 4-1 against the Rags. How is this possible? I thought teams on back to backs were supposed to be tired and always lose?

Oh wait, that’s just these losers we cheer for.

Boston is just a well-oiled machine with a great overall team structure.

We're nowhere near their level yet. Our team needs a philosophy and mindset change.

One good thing about Boston surging and leafs being shit is we wont have to worry about facing them in the first round( if we make it). The Bruins are gonna win the president's trophy this year.

The Bruins have underwhelmed a bit when you consider how dominant their teams have been and the yhave "only" 1 cup to show for it. I think this could be there year unfortunately.

Marchand is the biggest POS in the hockey world but he would be the best leaf player to step on the ice since 1992-1993
