GDT: Leafs @ Stars - Put on the coffee for 8PM start

[Ciao]

Benn on the third line? Isn't he their captain and making 9.5mil? Has he fallen off that bad? I know Robertson is a star deserving of 1st line but isn't Dadonov considered pretty meh?

And they have a $4.5-million fourth-line left winger.

.915 save percentage in 21 games last year. He's a good backup goalie. Not sure where the hot garbage takes are coming from

Ontario guy so he'll be fired up for the game too.

Nice that we don't have to deal with Otter. Still a tough opponent though, the boys will need to work for it.

 

[Notsince67]

Looks like Minton scratched. Guess it's time to play some WHL hockey

 

[ElGuapo]

Whatever became of Marchment?

Non existent after his 50 or so games in Florida

He's garbage. He's only ever had one good part-season in his hockey career.

Late starts are weird.

On one hand the kiddos will be asleep.

On the other hand, I’m so tired lol

Talking about this being a late start and putting on coffee is hilarious. Most starts in Dallas are 7:30 local so the start for you tonight is almost the same as usual, at least outside the eastern time zone. Stars have to play a lot of road games at 9-9:30pm and used to have to do it for division games!

Weren't people all over Dubas for letting him go?

Half of our board get senior discounts so anything after 7pm is late for them

Stars have a lot of 8:30 local starts too. Especially in playoffs to meet the TV markets. Those are brutal especially if OT. I myself will struggle to get home and across town in time for warm ups tonight. But have a plan, everything must go to plan ..no wrecks on the toll way lol...

I can't decide whether to yell at you for this comment, or just sigh and nod my head.

I'm getting old myself, I rarely watch the games with actual late starts anymore. Bit jelly of a place that considers 8pm late.

Oh yeah that drives me nuts in the playoffs.

 

[Evilhomer]

Would be foolish as the Leafs are 16-4-0 against Dallas since 2010, and 9-3-0 in the Matthews era. AM in particular feasts on them, he has 9 goals and 12 pts in 9 games against them in his career.

Good chance he feasts on Wedgewood, i.e., Mr. Hot Garbage, tonight.

 

[HockeyVirus]

Apparently I pissed off the Stars GDT with my coffee title. It was just meant as a joke because the game was slightly later

 

[Evilhomer]

But is he hot garbage? That is a much different standard...

What’s so offensive about it? I don’t get it either.

Think some were sensitive to me acting like the game was super late when their team gets forced into this timeslot all the time. Similar to how pissed off Canucks fans get when we come into town and force their home game to start at 4PM local time, but different.

The other half open their eyes around noon...if they are waking up early.

Too pretentious? Try changing the word coffee to Java, Joe or Dirt. Maybe something additional like "take your cowboy boots off in bed so you can see the tv."

 

[Maple Leaf]

I prefer Living on the west coast better than the east coast
Early games
better evening

My guess would be that the word coffee maybe hints at them being a boring team? I really don't care though so not going over there to investigate. Maybe I'll have a cup of joe instead.

Watching sports is way better on the west coast!

Anyone upset about it needs to switch to decaf…… or they are irreparably stupid…..

Honestly, feels like people are upset because they want to be these days.

…… but I’m not upset.

I used to be that way before I started having an edible about an hour before each game. My nights are happy now no matter what happens.

 

[ACC1224]

Top goalie in the league for goals saved above expectations with one of the most difficult assignments. I expect Keefe to do the right thing

Not saying that it would be my choice just what I would expect. Have they announced the starter?

Sorry couldn’t hear you, was out grabbing a coffee for this ridiculously late start time.

 

[ACC1224]

Nice...I put my clubs away already...it was 25 here Tuesday, 23 today, 24 tomorrow.

Obvioulsy most courses still open the next couple days. The only course I played up that was the 9 hole in Brampton near Pearson (Peel Valley?)

Let’s hope the Leafs play better than I did today. Bogeyed 18 for an 80
