Out of Town Thread 2021: Part 4

[MarkovsKnee]

It was a bad pass into his skates. It hit the back of his skate & skirted out front. Not sure how that's his fault.

It's obviously a New Jersey face-off play so they can go up the weak side. Execution failed on the initial pass.

When the leafs make it out of the Canadian division, Matthews will have a hard time being as performant.

The reality is, if the leafs get their top players shut down they will flame out. Just look at how the pens played against the Habs in the bubble, it's the same story.

The leafs IMO are a strawman team.

I'm not talking about the Leafs though, doesn't matter what teams you play against, scoring 18 goals in 20 games, at the NHL level is impressive no matter what and well worthy of mention.

Watching Toronto vs Edmonton depresses me. These teams have so many weapons and they can all skate.

Habs are built all wrong

Yeah both won the lottery and got franchise/generational talents. It’s tough to compare to the Habs who haven’t had a 1st overall pick since 1980. Both teams sucked hard before those picks.

Even if the Habs lucked out and won the 1st pick in the years they drafted 3rd, they would have ended up with Yakupov and Dahlin which wouldn’t have done much to help either.

Spezza is better than Danault

Slightly, yes.

 

[mariolemieux66]

Toronto is no joke.

 

[DavePeak]

That Subban shot deflected to Hischier... ouch!

Touché... but the Oilers have the best player in the world and Toronto has "the best team that ever hit an ice rink"... not the same expectations

It's true that our two Conference Finals are far away now...

Both are top heavy.

Habs are built badly too.

But this division is a dumpster fire defensively, so offensive players should be feasting, and they are.

These sport cards thingy is ridiculous. So many people right now struggling to make ends meet and NBA cards getting sold for 100 000$+

 

[MasterDecoy]

Toronto is no joke.

the joke is that they lucked out a pandemic which put them in a division with 6 other weak teams, guaranteeing their way to the conference final. that's the real joke

not sure i understood it, but its not even a card, its a... video... clip... thing? i don't know...

Got the Leafs/Oilers game on but not really paying much attention to it but looks like Campbell is getting a shutout in his return from injury. Leafers have done a great job against McDavid and Drai so far.

 

[Max2]

McDavid is invisible in this one.Oilers look awful.

 

[mariolemieux66]

not sure i understood it, but its not even a card, its a... video... clip... thing? i don't know...

If it's the case, will the video clip up in value as it gets older and more rare?
This world is getting more messed up my the day.

 

[GoodKiwi]

Only 4 regulation losses for TOR in 22 games now. Holy crap!

 

[sheed36]

Are the other divisions playing a similar style of hockey like the North games have been? The North games I've seen have pretty much been shinny hockey with little to no contact.

I hope the intensity of these North games pick up the closer we get to the playoffs because this isn't really all that interesting to me anymore. Yawn..

 

[Nipsey]

Sergachev with 16 points in 19 games.

Would be nice to have him along with Romanov going forward for our d-core.

Watching the Leafs depresses me. We keep talking about depth on the Habs the Leafs are the team with depth.

It's sad that Zach Hyman would probably be our top forward lol

As long as they fall flat on their faces and shit the bed again in the playoffs let them be the regular season champs.

They have drafted so well.
