I'm already sick of hearing about Heiskanen.

I'm already sick of hearing about Heiskanen.

Watch him, Leafs/Dallas game right now.. Toronto still getting away with interference ala Babcock style

Why would anyone want to watch a Toronto game besides when they play your team?

 

[Sabre the Win]

Heiskanen just got his first point with a phantom assist

Why would anyone want to watch a Toronto game besides when they play your team?

I like hockey in general.

the Dallas/Toronto and Vancouver/Carolina game's are the best one's tonight for prospect watching.

 

[Dingo44]

Was watching Avs/BJ's, but now watching Jets/Kings. I'll take a look at Dallas/Toronto. Hope Dallas spanks them.

 

[Doug Prishpreed]

Speaking of Heiskanen...how the hell could Dallas have drafted ahead of us in any of the last 5 drafts??? How the hell does that happen? They didn't even win the draft lottery.

 

[Dingo44]

Anyone else watching NHL.tv and starting to get Larkin singing "How deep is your love?" stuck in your head? Just me?

They moved up to third that year.

 

[Doug Prishpreed]

They moved up to third that year.

Well, that answers that! Thanks. For some reason I thought he was drafted 4th.

 

[Sabre the Win]

Dallas starting to look like a pee wee team against Toronto, only a few times do you see life from Dallas and its probably Heiskanen streaking along the wall looking setting up a nice scoring chance.

 

[Sabre the Win]

ooo Seguin with the shades of Eichel on that goal or is it the other way around?

 

[Der Jaeger]

Thanks Gritty! My kids can't sleep now.

I hope Sabretooth kicks your a$$.

 

[Gabrielor]

This Leafs offense is a juggernaut right now. Matthews is going for the rocket.

and Art Ross in one season

Dallas’ lack of any kind of threat aside from the top line of Benn-Seguin-Radulov line is making things easier for Toronto.

That being said, the Leafs with those two top lines are going to be hard to slow down. And you definitely need to stay out of the box.

Matthews will score 50 this season without a doubt, as much as that pains me to say.

 

[Reddawg]

Thanks Gritty! My kids can't sleep now.

I hope Sabretooth kicks your a$$.

Well now all I can think about is some kind of Spy vs Spy mascot battle...

 

[Sabre the Win]

Damn Stars PP is scary as well

 

[NotABadPeriod]

Do you guys realize the most popular and dynamic personality in the whole league is a mascot???

Nope. It's Ovechkin. See: last 4 months.

 

[slip]

Kane/Pavelski/Lebanc tearing it up tonight. Kane with 4 goals in 4 games. San Jose fans feeling better about that contract -- for now.

 

[Gabrielor]

Haha. Toronto and these track meets...

 

[Dahlin 2 Eichel]

Every Toronto game going to be 10+ goals?

 

[Montag DP]

My goodness, no one knows how to play defense on these two teams.

 

[Sabre the Win]

Tavares, Matthews and Marner all in a race for the Art Ross

 

[Sabre the Win]

Heiskanen really has no puck skills/dekes, he just tries to beat you with speed.

 

[BobbyRyan]

Tavares, Matthews and Marner all in a race for the Art Ross

Morgan Rielly has 9 points as well. That powerplay unit will put up crazy numbers this year.
