Pre-Game Talk: Leafs vs habs

[pheasant]

I want a blowout.

 

[ACC1224]

Tickets are nicer than I recall from previous Openers.

Two Leafs are pictured on the ticket, Matthews and the other player I thought was an odd choice........Gardiner.

 

[Morbo]

Would love us to destroy them then urinate on the smoking remains.

however, games between these two teams are tight more often than not regardless of how good one or the other has been over the years.

5-3 Leafs(inc. empty netter)

Kotkawhatever scores at least once for them though, and(although Warden beat me to this) there WILL be a poll comparing him to Matthews posted. which Matthews will lose.

 

[Mess]

My first 2 picks in the fantasy pool last night were Tavares and Matthews, so lets start working on those 40+ goal seasons beginning in this one.

We should have a pool going of which flavour of the month young player will be compared to and subsequently beat Matthews in a poll on here this season.

Hopefully we start the season off on the right foot.

When it comes to Leafs/Habs, i wouldn’t ever pick an easy win to take place.

 

[stickty111]

Do you really think we're big enough?

Actually better question is, do we have the necessary Barzal to succeed?

you'll be seeing Elias Pettersson vs. Matthews very very soon. we already saw Boeser defeating Matthews in polls last season.

Sometimes he says too much for his own good

 

[Mugzy97]

Surprised he picked him over Hainsey.. But he's probably right. Who's better defensively than Z?

mine were JT and Marner woot woot!

 

[BAM]

Zaitsev is going to surprise some people that are too fixated on last year when he was dealing with various issues to remember his rookie year

 

[ACC1224]

If there's one thing Berezin knew it's defense.

Many Hf fanboys of Rielly will argue that.

They'll need him to

Was about to say that very thing.

 

[ShaneFalco]

I think that's the point

 

[Mugzy97]

I think that's the point

Either that or he's trying to get Z some confidence.

Isn't Gardiner one of the longest tenured Leafs at this point. I don't think that it's that odd of a choice.

When you think of the Leafs, Gardiner is way down the list of players that come to mind.
It was just an observation.

LOL
