Damn this man has to get his icetime for certainly you are so correct here. That is rock solid evidence right there to be seen. If we have all these unfortunate injuries then Ashton needs to be the man up there for surely.
I spent some good time with the big mama but not going into any hard details naturally so I missed the big game against dallas myself. Life goes like that sometimes and not all games can be seen. It's a shame really, but that's how it goes. Good times are important nontheless what kind of times they are.
I just read this post game talk and man did it ever made me smile and laugh hard. There is so much respect and understanding going on here at the leaf hfboards I can't believe my eyes and heart. I very much have enjoyed the hockey talk here while being a long time hockey fan of course and this place makes it even more entertaining and so much more fun.
This place makes the following of the leafs organization even more broadening and funnier and that to me is a great deal. Like I once opened the thread "the True identity is back" I then said that (entertainment) is the key still in sports and in everything really. It doesn't even matter then if it's good, the bad or the ugly, or if a team loses or wins.... if the game itself is (entertaining). The whole event. Maple Leafs last season played so dirty, hard and heavy game I couldn't believe my eyes. I won't get over Carlyle and those leafs ever. That brought back all those great memories with the Roberts, Tucker, Belfour and Sundin teams that had so many characters and also the great coach in Pat Quinn. That was entertainment every night at its fullest.
These two seasons lately by the leafs and also all the writers here at hfboards have made the following of this game even better. Can't ask anything more of life than entertainment. Whatever it shall be to everyone... food, drinks, cigars, women, men, hockey, porridge, gambling, cars, bikes, water, ice cream or just earth to walk like kane in kung fu. But yes, this is the game and we all love it like all love the team naturally.
Glad to see we got the win I watched some highlights of the game and read analyzis here and there and it's looking very bright now. Carlyle is getting his team more readier taking those 50 shots back and still living and standing up like there's no bleed anywhere. They still roll with. Got to adapt... darwin, I ching, what a his team of course. Bowing down to the players too right here, they play the game wisely and hard. With all these injuries out there. I see Kadri rises to the occasion. And many others do too.
There's good times coming ahead for our team and us naturally because of that. Leafs are built for the playoffs and especially for those important games. We are doing some sort of a trade this season of course but this team already has it like we all have seen. When get all those warriors back healthy then all hell might brake loose again. It's just about that late season when Carlyle sends that last great message and tells it like it is.... like now is the time. And then they start fighting and biting people's face again. (Grabovski bit some guy's nose or something last seaason I remember the game it was montreal I think). They'll start pummeling again soon enough already.
I'm just real happy to see all the understanding of this philosofy of the Leafs identity. Carlyle brought it back and his players did the thing last season. This season it has happened, but will happen in better ways late this season.
I just want to say so much appreciation, greetings, props and regulations for all this toronto maple leafs hfboards staff and cast of people. This place makes hockey more fun than it already has been. There's a lot going on here folks.
Everybody is scared of the Maple Leafs now. People are really talking everywhere.
