Post-Game Talk: Sharks Hurt Spaling, Sparks and Bernier's Starts. (Leafs lose 5-4 in OT).

[Purity*]

God I wish we could cheer for a Pens tank. Stupid contingency on their pick. Good foresight by Rutherford

And we STILL retained salary

OMG just pisses me off every time I think about it

 

[hockeyes]

That's great. That wasn't the topic though.

I didn't realize I needed to debate excuses, my bad.

 

[Suntouchable13]

And we STILL retained salary

OMG just pisses me off every time I think about it

I'd still take that over seeing Kessel float around the ice half heartedly and be on pace for ~50 points while having an 8M cap hit.

 

[Erdinger]

They get to keep their own pick,they don't get ours.

and with that pick they enter the lottery................................Geeezuz

Pens almost out of business Part 1..Allowed to shamelessly tank (to the point that the NHL now has a rule forbidding it) they get Mario Lemieux

Pens in serious financial problems Part 2. Mario Lemieux has been screwed over for money owing by the former Pens owner and threatening to move franchise after lockout. With 6th pick in lottery somehow they get Sidney Crosby

2015-2016 Pens sucking. Crosby not happy. Lemieux wants to sell Pens. Everything points to another magical 1st overall for the team that until last season has got every generational player in the last 30 years through the draft. Lemieux,Jagr,Crosby and don't forget Malkin. Just saying

Toronto Maple Leafs head coach Mike Babcock addresses the media following Toronto's 5-4 overtime loss to San Jose on Thursday night.

 

[teeder333*]

Can we trade Polak for a traffic cone?

hahaha good one.

yup.
always yup.

 

[Giuseppe Sallo]

Yes, tank Commander berns. Please let him play more often. We need to stay at the bottom.

 

[mikebel111*]

I wonder if a forward gets called up, and which one? I don't expect any of the kids to come up. but it would be nice seeing 1

 

[burpsalot]

OMG just pisses me off every time I think about it

Yea, maybe we should have kept him. His value is soaring.

 

[Giuseppe Sallo]

Babs looks miffed at the PC, you can tell he wants to win. 4 points in 4 games. Berns ain't having none of that.

 

[Lauro]

Again no PGT thread.... sucks. At which page can I Start reading the reactions, THX.

 

[mikebel111*]

Bozak was also pretty bad

Such an inconsistent player, hopefully some team wants him this time

 

[Alerion]

Again no PGT thread.... sucks. At which page can I Start reading the reactions, THX.

It took me ~20 seconds to go back a few pages and determine that page 27 is where post-game discussion begins.

 

[Byron Bitz]

I thought Holland and JVR were our best players tonight.

 

[johnny_rudeboy]

The Dutches.

Have only seen parts of the game and highlights but Bernier did not look so bad really. Solid in the 2nd period.

 

[tokyoite]

We are running out of goalies.
Why did we trade Chris Gibson ?
Should have kept him.
I don't think PIT will tank.

 

[Go4soda]

It was funny how babs almost disclosed what sparks' injury was, then stops himself

 

[Gallagbi]

I don't think PIT will tank.

Because most teams don't keep 5+ AHL or better goalies?

 

[deletethis]

1a, +1, 2SOG, 75% on face offs, the most ice time by any Leafs' center, yeah really awful

 

[deletethis]

Nobody seems to be saying it so I will: Give the guy some credit, Bernier is responsible for earning the team that point last night.

 

[Nithoniniel]

1a, +1, 2SOG, 75% on face offs, the most ice time by any Leafs' center, yeah really awful

Kind of easy to see the agendas of some people.

 

[GoonieFace]

OMG just pisses me off every time I think about it

Ask Pittsburgh how they like Kessel, the guy is a lazy bum making $8 million/yr, im still surprised someone actually took him

 

[Daisy Jane]

no he wasn't.
just because you keep constantly saying this, won't make it any more true.

I'm with you, not sure why this has changed.
