Moar PPs for the Leafs.
Going to the 5on3 now - to go with their five PPs already halfway through the game.
Wonder what that feels like.

Leafs could be like 8-1 today or 7-1 without "Big Papi"

Their PP started to soar after Matthews got injured lol. It was worse than ours at one point.

I don’t like the Blues but how did they steal a coach? The Bruins fired Montgomery and so the Blues hired him.

The last three coaches the Bruins fired had all been recent Jack Adam’s winners and all three were signed by their new team within a week. For the genius that some of our posters make Armstrong out to be, he looks like an idiot for his last hire, the guy didn’t even make it to 20 games as permanent HC.

So many negative and sad stories in today’s world. If you want to be uplifted, watch this.

2 parts of interest, Douglas Murray’s comments on Joe and his family’s generosity and philosophy (around the 30 minute mark) and of course Jumbo’s thank you speech and his many stories about teammates and so on.

Highly entertaining watch. Just a huge, honorable man and character

For a guy that's only been in the league for a year and a few months, Connor Bedard sure gets a lot of media exposure. He seems to be in an inordinate number of commercials and ads for a guy that really hasn't done a whole lot yet. Sure, he obviously has lots of talent, but anyone thinking McDavid needs to worry about his crown can relax.

I kind of feel bad for him because he's obviously a very talented and sure fire star level player, but I always thought the "generational" accolades were premature and a little silly. Putting him in the same category as McDavid and Crosby wasn't fair.

He's undersized and not the greatest skater in the world. He is and will be a star, but I think more on the John Tavares/Steven Stamkos level, not anywhere close to Crosby, McDavid, Ovechkin, etc, etc.

That's f***ed up. Don't like Bisonette, but no one deserves that, especially since he was just trying to defuse the situation.
The first thing I thought of was back in the 90s when Shawn Michaels of the WWF got jumped by like 6-10 military guys outside of a bar

Celebrini. 10 points and counting in 12 games.

That Avs - Tampa game was a fun watch, the Lightning ended Colorado within the first 20 minutes. Annunen got pulled and put back in in the 3rd after Georgiev couldn't do shit in net and had himself an nice little meltdown. Tampa's retool over the past couple of years seems to come to fruition, pretty impressive.

I imagine at least one or two of those dudes woke up in worse shape than biz. Losers.


Looks like they all are in worse shape than Biz.

Good lord.

I also have to say - man - of anyone to start a fight with, a charismatic millionaire with a platform to millions who cut his teeth as a professional fighter has to be literally the worst person in the world to get in a fight with.

They're going to lose their ass criminally, civilly, and they got their ass beat too.
