Who needs opponents when you have a coach like Stubcock.
Awful stuff. Matthews' line will be terrible again.
Still, I hope we see October Matthews instead of April Matthews tonight.

Have you seen Matthews' nostrils? He's literally designed to excel at this altitude. He will be FLYING out there tanite.

Put Tavares with Lindholm and Marleau. As the xth highest paid player in the league if he can perform like a legit 2nd line center for 60 min should be a easy win.

Disappointing.
I wonder if the players themselves could do a better job of the lines.
Maybe these balanced lines are fine but come the playoffs, Marleau needs to be on line 4, 3rd max.

Matthew's didn't exactly tear it up with Marner. They they ended up hemmed in their own zone a lot.

yes, Marner was unfortunately a weak link. Nylander looks dominant though, and should get a look with Matthews

While literally everybody else would suggest Matthews having a playmaker on his line would be a good thing, Babcock is playing 3D checkers with his own unique ideas.
haha pretty sure Babs death stare would send Dubas running lol. that look is scary.

Feel free to point out all this Nylander domination tonight. type in @HamiltonNHL whenever you feel Nylander dominates.
A 7.5 million dollar winger should do well on the third line, but i haven't seen it pan out much.

Kadri playing with Matthews should be line mates is not good... at least give him 1 of them to start!

except he's under 7 million and he has been the best Leaf on the ice multiple times lately. He's finding his groove and playing hard at both ends of the ice. Definitely the best he's looked all year.
Why are you rooting for him to fail?

It sounds like you won't be pointing out his domination to me tonight. AmIRite ?

I'm not even the one you were quoting.
but you're right, I will not stop enjoying the game, to hop on the game thread to tag you. You over value your importance immensely. Enjoy being an angry fake fan who would rather complain than support.

At least i know where I stand. Thank you.
I think your blood pressure is up, not mine.
I do hope Nylander plays better than he has so far, his fitness level seems to have improved to the point where he may be ready for NHL hockey now. I'm glad he's almost in shape for hockey for valentine's day.

Wait a minute this is at 9 pm???? I really need to check the schedule next time
Let's bring it to this avs team we should've clobbered a month or so ago, but didn't due to poor effort.
