Pre-Game Talk: Panthers @ Leafs

[Swervin81]

The trending joke appears to be that there is a lot of "Finnish" in that line.

Finnish-Finnish-Finished for Komarov-Jokinen-Clarkson

 

[Punch Drunk Loov]

Definitely watching this one. Luuuuuuuu

 

[Smif]

Lines for tonight;

Winnik - Kadri - Panik
JVR - Bozak - Kessel
Komarov - Jokinen - Clarkson
Booth - Holland - Kozun

Have you heard about the D pairings yet?

Have you heard about the D pairings yet?

Rielly - Polak
Gardiner - Holzer
Granberg - Robidas

I'm much more excited for the AHL games.

Willie, Brown and Leipsic all playing in the next AHL game.
Finn healthy again
Percy still injured
Kozun and Loov doing alright recently as well.

In the NHL games pretty much all I get excited for...

Will Gardiner continue turning it around?
Rielly keeps improving
Kadri breaking out
How bad can we lose?

 

[Mess]

Surely, you jest.

No I'm serious and stop calling me Shirley.

Leafs are not dealing from a position of strength if a player they're dealing is struggling mightily.

Jokinen with Clarkson i knew it lol

Oli is thinking "Who the ell is dis guy on my RW, what are dey trying to do to me !"

 

[Territory]

Honestly though... That line could be pretty good for a 3rd line.

 

[Mess]

Sam Carrack has been recalled so it will be interesting if he draws in.

He will probably be a scratch. I think he was only called up to replace smith if Olli wasn't playing. But since he is, Carrick draws out.

 

[yubbers]

He no longer has the flow..... he donated 14 inches of hair on Friday i believe...

Wha?

Trade that ****ing bum already

Simple then, if you are not getting value, don't trade him, Shirley.

Why are they dealing him then?

 

[Al14]

Kessel really needs to get his act in gear and game going as his trade value is declining.

I really don't think he gives a damn!

Just the fact he comes to camp out of shape, says a lot to me about his overall character!

 

[Shimso]

It feels so weird that Jokinen is a Leaf Going to be weird to see for some reason.

Yeah, I don't know why I feel that way though. I guess I've always thought of him as a Western Conference player (I know this isn't his first East team, but still).

 

[ACC1224]

I'm guessing Bernier is starting?

 

[Al14]

I'm guessing Bernier is sucking?

Fixed for the good of the team!

 

[Suntouchable13]

We're a perfect fit for Jokinen! He went to the playoffs once in his career and now he is playing on a team that went to the playoffs once in a decade.

 

[CanadasTeam]

Any chance the Captain is back for this one?

I cannot believe ACC actually started a pre-game GDT?!?!

Perfect way to Finnish his career!

Rielly - Polak
Gardiner - Holzer
Granberg - Robidas

this should be helpful for tank purposes. what are we going to do after nonis trades polak?

 

[Stand Witness]

He's rocking number eleven. Jokinen is channelling his inner Owen Nolan.

Back when Nolan played for the Leafs I used to call him Olan Nolan and for a while after he left I thought it was Olli Jokinen because of the way the names roll off the tongue. I actually thought Jokinen was a Leaf when I was like 9

Now he actually is.
