Around the League - 2024-2025 Part II

[Maple Leaf]

There was a YouTuber talking about the Florida Panthers re-uniting Tkachuck-Dvorak and Marner in Florida. Can you imagine that top 6 if they did that?

Verhaghe-Barkov-Reinheart
Tkachuck-Dvorak-Marner

and they still have Lundell and Luostarinen on the 3rd line.

What if you had a team full of former leafs hyman kadri Verhaghe could go far

 

[Menzinger]

Could happen given the Florida tax break advantage. But riddle me this, would you rather pay Marner $10+m or Bennett $7+m if you are Barry Zito. If I knew Marner would play a foot taller playing for the Panthers, I would consider it, otherwise you pay the winner, Bennett not the loser, Marner.

If Marner leaves im skeptical he extends in the division. Last thing he will want is return ring to Toronto as much as possible. Bennet and Marchand likely remain Florida's main off-season moves first and foremost

and Ekblad... they have the money to extend them all, if they don't have crazy asks, and I expect that's what they will do.

Draisaitl with the first goal.

 

[ACC1224]

Draisaitl with the first goal.

Wish Matthews could remember how to shoot like that.

Wish Matthews could remember how to shoot like that.

holy that's exactly what I thought right now...creepy lol

Draisaitl beats goalies so effortlessly and cleanly, look at game 1 of the series too, just going far side 1 on 1 vs the goalie

Matthews needs triple screens or a deflection off someone for the puck to go in

 

[IPS]

Dallas just does not match up with this team worth a shit.

 

[fahad203]

Look who scored. Draisitl

Remember when Matthews was better than him. Those were some good times

 

[BallardEra]

Hyman injury looks like it could be a bad one.

 

[Torontonian]

This is why I don't mind Matthews not disclosing his injuries.

This is why I don't mind Matthews not disclosing his injuries.

Opposition players would get confused trying to remember where the latest injury is.

 

[ULF_55]

Dallas started hemming the Oilers in later in the period.

 

[keonsbitterness]

And we're tied.

Oiler fans are quite the big sucks.

 

[keonsbitterness]

Now we're not tied.

 

[BallardEra]

And we're tied.

Oiler fans are quite the big sucks.

Both good calls and stupid penalties to take by Perry and Marchment.

 

[LeafalCrusader]

Sucks Hyman is out. Favourite player left in the playoffs.

 

[TheGreenTBer]

Wish Matthews could remember how to shoot like that.

He'll be using the injury excuse the rest of his career, I can feel it.

I realize some injuries are chronic; I myself have some chronic ailments. But he's run out of excuses at this point in my opinion.

 

[ACC1224]

Oilers are winning the cup this year aren’t they?

 

[fahad203]

Oilers are winning the cup this year aren’t they?

So many players are stepping up. Hopkins has really stepped up along with Perry
Other series it was Brown

Kane has been decent ..... Not to mention Skinner

They geneuinly believe they can win. Becaues they have players who can win it for them

They all know they just have to play their role and wait until McDavid /Drai gets his mojo during games.
One of them will always come through

 

[TheGreenTBer]

Oilers are winning the cup this year aren’t they?

Yes.

 

[thewave]

Leafs watch this pace. Forget it, let's go golfing instead.

I have playoff-level anger when I golf. As in Habs-Nords Good Friday Brawl level of anger.

Maybe I should run a seminar, take all their phones and throw them into a water trap

 

[keonsbitterness]

Next goal wins.

 

[blue stick]

I don't even think the golf courses are open in Edmonton. Has the snow even melted yet?

Who waits for the snow to melt?
