Love 50
I've also always loved Labatt 50's old school logo.
And for $17 for a 12 pack, you can't go wrong.

He's ready to be the 7th defenseman. If he can be that average all the time he could even battle for a spot in the team. Same goes for DSP.

I thought he was very good tonight.
As mentioned, the first period he seemed to try to do to much, but the 2nd and 3rd were very solid for him.
If there's one way to gain Therrien's trust, it's playing 20+ minutes in a 1-0 game and not hurting the team. He was also solid on the PK and generally played sound defensive hockey the majority of the night.
I'm rooting for him
Ahhhh,
You were fortunate enough to have missed the one in question.
We didn't manage a shot on net.
When I say we won't like it, i feel we aren't strong one on one. The reason we swarm quite often?
Do we have enough individual skills hands & wheels to be successful?
My guess is no PK or not, time will tell.
I don't find our 4 vs 4 particularly good anymore (last couple of years) and I'm assuming 3 will be similar.

Wait... DLR was playing last night?
Wow. I didn't catch every minute of the game by any means but if I didn't read that he played I would have been 100% sure he wasn't in the line up

Very impressed by the D last night. We essentially had an AHL back end and they all played very well.

Damn I'm jealous. We get ripped off hard here in Ontario.

Condon sadly will most likely be sent down.
It depends on how many starts you want to give to Price in the regular season.
It's been 3 years in a row that Price is injured in the playoffs. Granted, the Kreider one was a fluke and not the result of playing too many games, still I think lowering his load a little during the regular season would be a positive thing. But we can't do that with Tokarski though, not second half Tokarski of last season anyway, which he seems to be on the path to being again from what I've seen so far.
With Condon, we could afford to play him a bit more and give that much needed rest to Price.
But if we're going to give Price 65+ starts... there's no point in keeping Condon up.
If it were me, and if Condon could play like he did yesterday reliably, I'd give Condon something like 24-27 starts, and Price 55-58 starts and make sure he's well rested for a big playoffs push. Price's got his regular season trophies, it's time for some playoffs hardware. This regular season is grueling, and we need him at 100% when it actually matters. Of course, that's only possible if Condon can actually handle that many starts and play well most of the time.... but he inspires me confidence.

I thought it was DLR's best game so far. That doesn't really say much though.
We'll see...
How many of these games are ending in the first minute or first or second shift?
Get the right combo out immediately or pay the piper.
Never liked the idea of 4-4 but got used to it over time.
Loathe the shootout...
3 on 3 yikes
Condon was great last night, but let's not get ahead ourselves. Remember how good Tokarski looked during his honeymoon period. I realize Condon is bigger and plays a better positional game, but so much of a goalie's success depends on mental factors. We still have no idea how this guy handles higher-stakes pressure.
Yikes. Hate to say it, but I barely noticed him, outside of a handful of faceoffs. DLR is only 20 and will certainly develop, but we need to see signs of offensive confidence when he has the puck. Right now, the kid knows how to react to opposition, but can't seem to initiate anything the other way.

They only had two playing: Nylander and Kapanen, both 19 yrs old. Marner wasn't playing last night.
The leafs had all their army of PTOs playing but none of them stood out.
3 on 3 we need just two lines, really:
Patches-Plek-Subban
Semin-Galchenyuk-Petry
Just roll with that if possible. If it gets to a point where you need the 3rd line, try:
Gallagher-Eller-Markov (or maybe Beaulieu)
Anyways, it's Therrien so don't expect any of this. My guess is that he's gonna start 3-on-3 with:
Patches-Desharnais-Markov...
Patches-Plek-Subban
Semin-Galchenyuk-Petry
