GDT: Leafs @ Senators Pre-season game 2 TSN4 &5

[firstemperor]

So what's going on with SDA? Was hoping he'd get a crack in pre-season

 

[CanadasTeam]

If it matters last year during Matthews first preseason game he was wearing an A that night.

Yeah preseasons only I'm assuming.. same applies to Kadri who was spotted with an A also last night.

Since Marleau was not playing last night that would be correct.

 

[Rare Jewel]

Not including pre-season, Dermott played in 86 games last year. That's a whole lot of hockey games for a rookie with Lupul syndrome. In 13 seasons, Lupul only played that much once.

It must be the questionable social media posts he's referring to then.

 

[Marshy]

Anyone have Belleville's line up tonight?

Edit: NVM I see it's on the OP

Tonight we get to watch hockey on a network that is actually good at what it does.
It's a national tragedy they didn't win the broadcasting rights.

I feel like that joke is more geared towards the Dion Phaneuf types than Jake Gardiner.

does Dion hit?
does Jake hit?

go from there

you're suggesting I made some kind of juvenile homophobic joke, I can assure you I certainly did not

I honestly feel like part of the reason he's still here is to give Oz another Russian that can answer questions and help him out. Zaitsev can't always be around.

 

[LEAFANFORLIFE23]

Any news on how long Dermott is out? just heard he injured his shoulder

 

[member 300185]

Well he and the Leafs that went posted on social media about their wedding.

Also, Henny was the one who posted the tweet about Jake's baby:

Means their kid is a Canadian. Just thinking ahead here.

 

[Advanced stats]

Only person wrong here is you, but I love crushing the try hards so why not.

Today- Shoulder Injury
Calder cup final- shoulder injury
April 4th- lower body injury

Then you add the leg injuries from 2016 and there you have it 5 injuries

But noooooo totally a non issue, thats what they said about lupul too. You need to get your due diligence level way up, stop relying on others.

I used to think you were a good poster, but you've been ridiculous lately.
First of all, that only adds up to 4 injuries.
Secondly, aren't they all minor injuries that didn't have much impact? I don't think anything kept him out long.

I'd guess that it's a learning experience. He isn't really competing for a spot, but he is there for the experience, for the practices and to get a sense of the habits of established players.

yeah this is how I see it as well, although it'd still be great for him to see him get into a game. Having players like Tavares and Marleau rubbing off on our youth is really only a good thing though, as well as coaching from Babcock

Day to Day. So hell probably play again next game. Wont miss games in the regular season.

That's the umbilical chord Paul.

Thanks brother, that's good news

 

[ECanuck]

Jake + his Wife had a Baby! congrats
(and this is why i call bull crap with the whole "you can't be invisible in Toronto.". did anyone know he was married or expecting? nooopee).

Congratulations Jake!

You know it's a game day on hf when people are arguing. No wait, it can also be a regular day!

Nothing wrong with last night? I liked bartlett, the only issue was the camera and sportsnet didn’t choose that it was a small rink camera goes where ever it will fit

 

[ECanuck]

Can't watch this one. Working the graveyard shift. Go Leafs!

 

[Swedish Gretzky]

Do i need tsn to watch this game?

I agree with you but I'll give sportsnet credit where it's due. They got rid of romanuk, Millen and millard.

They weren't awarded national rights due to their city-specific name (i.e. Toronto Sports Network)

What was so bad last night? They had no choice with the camera?

Are you talking about intermission? Outside of kypereos I like the rest
