Which makes no god damn sense. I've watched every Stars game last season. Spezza just was not good most of the time and just going to the Leafs doesn't magically make him good again. This talk about how Spezza took less money to go to the Leafs is just BS . After last season he didn't deserve more than the minimum. Spezza is a veteran on his last legs still chasing the cup who can still chip in every now and again. Not more and not less.

Toronto media/fans. The same way Cody Ceci was largely panned and criticized as the worst defenseman in the league, but is suddenly a top four defenseman in Toronto

Finally let the March begin.

Probably why it didn't happen.

How are the Sens beating the Leafs? Sparks is not starting the game, lol.

 

[Deadly Dogma]

guys Spezza is scratched because I heard Shore will be the captain

 

[Brimbo Stallz]

Going to have myself a real dark and depressed few minutes watching St Louis raise that banner.

Its gonna be AWESOME!

Can't wait to see the amount of threads started tonight based on wayyy too early assumptions

 

[Reality Check]

Are we forgetting the Mike Modano thing?
Why would Dubas bother signing Spezza

If we're going to use Mike Modano in the same breath with Spezza than he is indeed finished. Kudos to Babcock for doing the right move as opposed to playing favorites.

On a serious note I had no idea this was NHL opening night. Too much sports on the radar at it is.

 

[TheAngryHank]

Tom Wilson in the STL should be fun.

 

[Mikeshane]

Nice little set of games to get it started with San Jose at Vegas to cap it off.
Cooking with gas on opening night. Let's Go!

Also why did MLB have to schedule a one game playoff game on NHL opening night...

Toronto is rushing an opening night ceremony? I'm actually shocked.

So do Leaf fans call that area outside the arena Jurassic Park or is that basically just a Raptor thing?

 

[Captain Bowie]

Finally!!

Happy to have hockey back.

Toronto
Washington
Vancouver

Opening night, only 4 games. 3 pretty strong rivalries... and Washington vs. St Louis?

Battle of the last two Stanley Cup Champions. It's a good match up.

Maybe they could play that off as the last two Stanley Cup Champions against each other.

I guess.
