Around the League - 2024-2025 Part II

[Superstar]

When will Marner start yelling at the Dallas bench?

 

[Trapper]

So why Dubas didn't want Corey Perry again?

Shrewd management. Why take Corey Perry when you can have Nick Petan.

 

[Gallagbi]

I think I would have thrown Otter back in after that first whistle at 2-0. Go with your best, even if they don't look it, down 2-0

Pull him for a shift to refocus

 

[Cleetus]

Wes McCauley is such a bad ref yikes

 

[fahad203]

Shrewd management. Why take Corey Perry when you can have Nick Petan.

I believe it was between him and Wayne Simmonds

 

[SprDaVE]

Is that the 2nd Leafs assistant coach they've hired in the last 5 years?

Hakstol was the first coach they had and now Lambert, yeah.

 

[GlitchMarner]

Eh... I hope Edmonton wins the Cup.

A few reasons:

1. f*** Sam Bennett

2. f*** Brad Marchand

3. f*** Florida

4. McDavid is the best player to come out of the GTA in a long time. I'm a big fan, and I find it petty and silly to root against him (and to favor some guy from Arizona who has less talent and nowhere close to as much heart) because of how a couple of lottery balls bounced and landed years ago.

5. The Canadian Cup drought has gotten pathetic at this point. It's time to bring the Cup home and make hockey great again.

nah. f*** the oilers.

 

[Maplebeasts]

Choosing between the Oilers and Panthers for the cup is like deciding if I'd rather be kicked in the shin or the balls. Both options are not great at all.

 

[MSZ]

McJesus what a goal

 

[Dragao6]

That’s a legit superstar
When you need it

And from TO

 

[mikeyz]

Holy f***ing shit McDavid

 

[LeafalCrusader]

nah. f*** the oilers.

f*** Marchand Bennett Tkachuk and the whole state of Florida!

 

[Tie Domi Esquire]

McDavid should've taken a weak wrister from just inside the blue line

 

[shaner8989]

Hope Matthews is watching how a real player plays. Mcdavid is truly spectacular. Matthews doesn’t have that level of “want”

 

[Seath The Scaleless]

Oilers are getting all the bounces lol

That should be curtains for the Stars.

 

[fahad203]

Rantanen going from zero to hero to zero in a hurry

 

[Blanka]

I love how Kane has stepped up. He thrives in this environment, with these stakes. Sure wish we had players like that.

 

[hockeywiz542]

 

[Blanka]

Oh wow. That happened rather quickly. I hope he finds success there.

 

[fahad203]

I love how Kane has stepped up. He thrives in this environment, with these stakes. Sure wish we had players life that.

Fun fact. He was available. San Jose sharks were willing to take half of his salary. At the time it would have been 3.5 million a year . They wanted somebody to take him out of their hands

but you know dubas was. Nice guy who only wanted to bring in exampleatory players.
Kane had a bad rep. A guy who can hit, score goals and fight anyone

 

[ruaware41]

Late starts and horrible games, in bad markets. Bless Winnipeg and TTOE, but they ain’t getting anyone excited to watch hockey.

TTOE?

 

[fahad203]

Series clinching game and star players have 2 points in each
Mcdavid and Drai

Is that allowed?

 

[Zero1]

Props to the Oilers and their superstars.

We can’t deny greatness and McDavid is going to be an all-time great.

It’s insane how much better McDavid is than Matthews.

edmonton got lucky drafting these players and they are very proud
