Perfect trade partner for Vancouver!

Somebody might be full of shit

I mean

His favourite group is Bell Biv Devoe

Whatever line he plays on will be poison.

 

[The Abusement Park]

What an insane response tweet by Keefe.

Good ceremony for Hellebuyck on his 300 wins, but he’s not starting tonight vs the Kings. He’s gonna start against the Avs tomorrow I guess. I really thought he’d play tonight after the whole ceremony and everything.

I don’t believe a word of what that blowhard is saying (and I’m not referring to Marchand). I don’t think there’s any discord, I just don’t think the Bruins are that good anymore.

 

[LOFIN]

I don't think that guy made it up. He heard it from someone. AFAIK that guy broke the Montgomery/Sacco news before any insider. So he does have at least some sources.

Now, here's a wild theory. His source is someone close to management/coaching staff, and they purposefully told this reporter a white lie, to try and unite the locker room a bit. Kinda like how Tortorella loves to draw the attention to himself, in order to protect his players.

Habs outshot the Caps 30-17 in Washington.

 

[RoyIsALegend]

Come on Kings, 20 minutes left to not f*** this up.

The Jets have 9 shots through two periods.

Jets have really come back to earth after their start eh

 

[the_fan]

That reporter is an idiot, that’s all I’ll say. He should not have that job anymore after starting the bullshit rumors like that

 

[RoyIsALegend]

Kings have fallen apart in this 3rd period. As expected. 1-1 with 3 minutes to go.

There's ZERO chance he made it up.

 

[the_fan]

There's ZERO chance he made it up.

Listening to both Marchand and Pasta, there is also a zero chance Pasta ever said he doesn’t want to play with Marchand. They both sound genuine when they say it never happened. Maybe that reporter heard from someone else, but he should do a better job confirming before putting it out to public

 

[Metallo]

f***ing sucks Lou gave him a 35+year old - 4 year 2.75M contract that doesn't end until after the 26/27 season. Could you have imagined the feels if he was a UFA this year, to bring him in as our #3? Pretty sure my wife would be preparing onions if that happened.

You can't have a #3 like that. He can't be sent down or he will be claimed so you have to keep 3 goalies on your roster which is quite a cap and roster constrain. Also goalies want to play and these goalies "ménage à trois" never work.

 

[RoyIsALegend]

Kempe roofs one in OT. Kings win 2-1.

Would’ve been nice for the Kings to have won it in the 3rd period, but one point instead of two for Winnipeg is still a positive outcome.

Let’s pollute Helly’s ass tomorrow night like good old times.

Like I said earlier, probably the same source who told him about Montgomery being fired and Sacco replacing him. He got that scoop before any of the insiders.

I have no doubt they’ve had their issues. Both guys come off as surly punks (not always a bad thing). But I’m not buying that Pasta demanded to be on a different line.

Most rumors have a morsale of truth blown up into a meal. Probably an isolated argument that is really just nothing.

Oh well, it doesn’t sound like it’s true but what do i know

Knowing what the proper attitude is toward extramarital affairs?

 

[The Kingslayer]

Montreal making the playoffs would be fun. Lane Hutson legit.

 

[RECKLESS]

Yeah I'm definitely rooting for Montreal to make a feelgood run to the playoffs.
