Thanks Dubas.

 

[TheTotalPackage]

Carolina would be amazing if they had a good goalie

It's amazing how Freddie starts the season like a rockstar and craters as the season progresses.

Looking at the schedule

Leafs only play the Bruins 3 times and Florida 3 times as well this season, I thought we play 4 games against teams in our division

That was a 31 team schedule. Now each team have to play Seattle at least twice a year.

Ohhh okay makes sense

ducks imploding. 4 unanswerd goals scored by oilers. draisaitl also gets 1 and moves up a goal in a race for rocket

 

[tmlms13]

No one has pointed out yet that the Canadiens Blues game was St. Louis vs St. Louis?

 

[Rants Mulliniks]

Was hoping we could win one more game before Montreal did so I could say we had three times as many points as Montreal! LOL

Looks like the Oilers finally made a good hire - they've replaced Tippett (their babcock) with young modern Woodcroft (their Keefe).

Too bad because I really wanted them to hire another dinosaur, but now they have a sharp young modern coach who understands how to implement basic modern systems and has had great success at lower levels, whereas Tippett was an even worse version of Babcock.

Still not a good enough roster to be a top team I don't think, especially the defense, but imo their goalie issues have been dramatically exaggerated and with Kane their forwards are looking legit good now. And in that weak west and super weak pacific they're probably a lock for the playoffs and might challenge for the division lead.

I spent half my waiver money on Kane in fantasy and the guys been ranked 8th best player since joining the league. What a pickup for them.

(Yes I just used yahoos rankings to analyze a player don't @ me, this is new age methods)

I hate Florida..why do they have to be in our division..because of them we're going to get Tampa in rd 1

 

[stickty111]

Lol over that?

You never know how we'll match up against them when we finally play them. I don't think it's quite the mismatch the hype would have you believe. We played Carolina pretty well last week.

Speaking of Carolina. Nursing a 4-1 lead with Freddie in net and now it's 4-3. Might get the popcorn and tune in for an exciting finish...

 

[stickty111]

Never a comfortable game with Freddy in net

Another win for the Dane.

It's too bad the Leafs have squandered all good will. Winning a couple of previous rounds in the years before would go a long way for this year if they get bumped early.

Every matchup is basically a coinflip.

Lol over that?

He's got a small man complex thing going on for sure.

 

[TheGoldenJet]

Hatty.

Dubas trying to blend in with the wallpaper for the next 24 hours.

Dubas trying to blend in with the wallpaper for the next 24 hours.

He's shooting over 20% and his on ice shooting percentage is almost double league average. He's the beneficiary of some crazy puck luck. He's probably closer to a 45-50 point player than the ppg+ pace he's on now.
