[hockeykicker]

[bur and 666 others]

why do you, @Mulletman , hate ovie? Ovie is not scoring either. where is his thread?

Ovechkin’s having a 1000th game pregame ceremony tomorrow and trying to lock down another Rocket. They’re not going to rest him unless he’s legitimately ailing.

Which he is, took an awkward tumble into the boards against the blues

I commend Laine for sacrificing his body for the team in blocking the shot that gave him a deep bruise, but from that point on, his mojo seemed off. Now with the goal, he may be getting his mojo back. Will be interesting to see if he does to win his first Rocket Richard Trophy with 2 games left.

I dunno, I can’t see them resting him out of respect for his legacy unless he has an actual injury.

Patrik Laine is good at hockey.

Okay, but you’re asssuming he sustained an injury on the play, rather than just being sore.

Generational goal drought

I thought he was going to score 80 goals this year.

When did I ever say that? And if your quoting some hyperbolic troll what's the point?

Laine is a young elite goal scorer in the league. I'm a Leafs fans so him being in the west allows me to cheer for him a bit plus he plays on a Canadian team.

I'd rather appreciate young talent than be turned off from them because of some over zealous fan.

 

[Romang67]

Amazing, amazing shot. Too bad he is useless at everything else.

Yikes, gonna need oven mitts to handle that hot take.

 

[X66]

Any time I see that Laine scores, I always watch a replay of the goal to be impressed with the bullet. Wasn't disappointed.

 

[BB88]

The bad thing with that goal was that I can't see the puck, the video guy was too slow.

If you were trolling, I would applaud you. But since you're not, I just feel bad for you.

 

[Do or Die]

Price didn't even have time to uselessly wave his glove at that........

 

[Oilers Propagandist]

Its his nasty beard, its weighing him down.

 

[Saitama]

Whoa, I didn't know about Ovie hitting the boards, hope he's ok!

"I'll be fine. Russian Machine Never Breaks".

 

[illpucks]

Looks horrible. Why did they keep him in the game? Looks like a sprained ankle

 

[Gunnersaurus Rex]

Over dramatic much? Worst scoreless streak of his CAREER. He hasn't even played 2 years. Is that even a career yet?

 

[Blue Shakehead]

Amazing, amazing shot. Too bad he is useless at everything else.

Matthews has doubled it. Better again!

 

[Cleatus]

Do people honestly start to dislike player/team because of their fans? Also, generalizing isn't fair. Similar to other fan bases, they have crazies(especially that guy who wished death) but they also have lot of reasonable fans.

Edit. Forgot to add my thoughts. I wouldn't mind if he rested until playoffs. Especially if that leg is still bugging him.

Agreed. I’ve been a member here for 10 years. If I based the team(s) I like on “most well behaved fan base on HFboards,” I wouldn’t like any team because every fan base on this site has a lot of undesirables.
