All these 11m players unable to score. Why the f*** are we giving them this money?

 

[Cleetus]

Tavares or Jason Allison in a race from the bluelines?

 

[MarMarSab3]

The guy has hung around as an NHL for years and years. He's not great, but there is no reason to rag on him as a person. All of our careers should be as successful as his has been.

Agreed wholeheartedly

 

[fahad203]

Recall all the "JT looks faster this year" posts earlier this year.

He actually did. But then everyone got their legs in NHL

 

[frizzer1]

At this point I hope they get a lottery pick.
No future without young prospects here.

 

[BrannigansLaw]

At this rate, Tavares will basically be an 11 million dollar grinder by March.

 

[Seath The Scaleless]

Just get the point

 

[danny90]

He looked so much faster earlier in the season I guess he’s worn down already

I think Tavares slowed down as time went on.

 

[saffronleaf]

Throw the non playoff teams into a pool and they can play for the # 1 overall pick.

lol we'll be out in the first round again

Father time called.

Exactly. He seems like a really great guy off the ice. If people are ragging on him for letting us down in the past....there's a huge line of all-time letdown players ahead of him.

Guilty here. I guess he looked ok speed wise at the start before every one warned up, so to speak.

 

[fahad203]

Sprong going to get the winner isn't he'?

You have nothing to be guilty of! It’s Tavares skating that got worse as the season has progressed. Seems to happen every year and by playoffs he’s usually running on ice in tennis shoes.

 

[BrannigansLaw]

Nylander man move your damn feet. So passive

 

[eramosat]

At what point does concern about Rielly playing to maintain 0 penalty minutes in key moments become a concern? It is not right now, Rielly has been fine but it is hard to not wonder if he had 10 pim in the year if he plays that any differently. Felt like he had the time to go for a hold and take a penalty instead of sprong having a breakaway on a nervous samsonov.

Never. It's the exact opposite.

 

[Stephen]

Sprong going to get the winner isn't he'?

He has that punchable face. So yes.

 

[fahad203]

Still waiting for Larkin to be a supertar in this league

 

[Nineteen67]

I doubt there would be much intensity, so they’d do well.

 

[GoonieFace]

I posted this like a week into the season, all the Tavares looks faster talk, never fails, the guy is just slow

 

[theTTC]

An ad break with 4 minutes left in the 3rd?

Like I said. The game is the clickbait. The advertisements are the show. Seriously.

The woke social narratives woven into the sales pitches have .gov's stamp of approval. It's called programming.

 

[MSZ]

Sprong going to get the winner isn't he'?

If this game goes to OT, yes.

 

[Stephen]

Man, Nylander really took the week off after that contract was signed and he had that party game vs San Jose.
