Kassian has those crazy serial killer eyes

The most memorable part of his career for me was that trade to Vancouver. Canucks fans calling into the radio crying about losing Hodgson. In response to what to do with Hodgson jerseys, one guy literally said to fold it up and put it away and then pull it out for his silver stick presentation and Kassian would be out of the league within 2 years. I wonder where that guy is now.

Wild to think their career totals added together ended up shy of 1000 games (I know Hodgson retired for health issues though) and Kassian doubled him up in games

Officials are horrible. Make a bad call. Zero repercussions.

Coach gets pissed, lets them know about it, gets tossed, and fined $25K

It's such a stupid cycle. Why do they think the officials are horrible in the first place? Because there's zero accountability and they fine anyone that criticizes them.

Ref makes terrible call/non call > Player/Coach criticizes their mistake > NHL fines player/coach > Ref laughs at them > Ref makes terrible call/non call.....

Zero accountability for the refs makes it that much easier for the league to cozy up to all those gambling dollars.

Fox allegedly on LTIR but not sure how good the source is. Congrats to Quinn Hughes on his Norris

(I really don’t want to figure out how to embed a tweet found on Reddit)

Very good

Very good

It was some rando I’d never heard of that broke the news that was on the Reddit thread but sounds like it was credible after all

If you are referring to Vince, he's a Rangers beat writer


BTW, for all the talk about "adding some snot" for the Leafs during the offseason (Domi, Bertuzzi, Reaves), no-one did f*** all when Marchand launched Liljegren to the boards last night and Liljegren is going to miss significant time now.

Well, Reaves yapped Marchand from the bench but...

Seravelli here looks like Steve Levy if he were in Blink 182.

I feel like I've seen Seravali wear that sweatshirt a few times before in these interviews.

It takes me a moment looking at the thumbnail to figure out whether it's a sweatshirt, or he's wearing a tank top on top of a sweatshirt.

Similarly I always laugh a bit when I see the 51 year old dapper Jared wearing that flat brim hat pulled down over his eyes, like he's doing a Steve Buscemi skateboard over the shoulder meme.

Buffalo goaltending sucks so much

Can't believe we lost 4-0 to Buffalo and Pittsburgh. How??

You know, if Frank wasn't such a walking injury we could have probably traded him to Buffalo for a decent pick.

Clearly none of those guys have played hockey at a competitive level. If they had they would know that those guys would stop them in their tracks

Planned , giving Nate's buddy Crosby and Av buddy Johnson free points that won't affect the Avs in the West

Didn’t take them seriously

every so often you get a guy like Marchand who just doesn't care.

He's a gem

J. Hughes injured for the Devils

[Balthazar]

Shoulder, maybe. Didn't look bad.

Saad just had one of the worst empty net misses you’ll ever see. Someone needs to post a gif of it

They should rather look at the refereeing decision and then decide if the coach should be fined. (Don't know this case but for the future). If refs are making terrible calls, they should hear about it..

Still cracks me up he thought that was the team with the leadership to win lmao

 

[dahrougem2]

This is probably good news. I assume they'd know right away if the shoulder was separated so that has to be ruled out.

Unrelated - holy can Dawson Mercer please do something this season? I don't think he has a point yet. I'm holding onto him in fantasy but patience is running thin.

I've got mcdavid and he's not helping much, in the long run it should still be fine. I slightly know how you feel.
