Yeah, I am pretty sure he did. He was a loyal leaf, so I like him as a player quite a bit. 2011-2014 we had some incredible late-round draft picks become quality NHLers including Leivo (he kind of didn't take off due to injuries but still pretty solid when healthy), C. Brown, AJ, Verhaeghe, Engvall (despite being an incredibly frustrating player)
Hoping 2018-2021 can give similar results

Is THN...sorry, si.com/hockey (ugh), using non-native speakers to write their editorials, resulting in excessive adjectives and comma splices?
Read this article on Jacob Markstrom.
They switched to si maybe 4-5 months ago and this wasn't the first article I noticed that was full of typos and tense errors.
I'm not saying the people writing these articles - including this alleged 'Steven Ellis' are bad people, but I think it's kind of slimy to lower the quality of a product but raise the prices to keep with inflation.

Suter is weaving magic with that roster of Flames. They just keep winning
On another note….
Habs fans continue to lose their minds is something beautiful to see after the Leafs pick up 2 wins while habs keep losing

This tweet just gets better and better. Traikos has had some serious hockey takes lately.
His entire contract here was 5 years, so it's literally impossible for his bad play over the past couple years to be a result of "5 straight years of carrying the goaltending". Beyond that, Andersen had good backups for the majority of his time here. McElhinney during the first 2 years, and Campbell during the past 2 years (both of which outperformed Andersen). He was never the league leader in GP (or even top-50 in GP in the cap era), and would always get sheltered usage in back to back situations during his biggest usage years - which is when he played his best.
Great for Andersen that he's having a good start to his season, but Andersen's problems over the past couple years were Andersen's problems.
I can only imagine the reaction here if, Matthews for example, slowly drifted over to a player, dropped the gloves, failed at throwing two punches, and got easily taken down in a matter of seconds; a fight so pathetic that the refs didn't even call it a fight. Though making them roughing minors was probably more-so to gift Mackinnon 3 minutes of PP time during the 5 minute Colorado PP that Toronto never would have gotten for a hit like that.

They may actually struggle to hit double digits in points this year.
At least they mean to do that though!!

Habs have 9 shots in almost 35 minutes of play against the Ducks and Brooks has been one of their only noticeable players... but that's not saying much.

Andersen going for that 2015 Carey Price season
Man I remember when the leaf's defense used to be better than the Canes, lol
Andersen looks rejuvenated and primed for a dominant back half to his career

Watching the Habs and Hawks struggle to start the season makes me so happy.
I figured the Habs to be a middling team that could sneak into the playoffs if things went right, so I don't expect them to continue to struggle this bad. But at the same time if this slump continues well into November, that's steep hill to get back into it.

I want them to get some wins eventually. Missing the playoffs by a couple points is best case scenario. No playoffs and no lottery pick

Probably best for the kid’s development. Glad the hype has died down on him too.

A prospect almost a full year older than Robertson, for the record.
