Around the League Part XIII: The season's here, and so still is this thread!

[God Says No]

Damn, that's a good pickup by the leafs. Even if it's just a gamble. It's a good gamble.

Puns are the lowest form of comedy.

I thought fart jokes were? Or anything starring Kevin James.

I think Dane Cook is the bottom of the barrel. Kevin James is brilliant by comparison.

Forgot about Dane Cook, talk about falling off the map completely. He always seemed like a good guy in interviews, but yeah I hated his stand-up.

You take that back!!

Carlos Mencia is the worst.

Looks like Tokarski getting his first start tonight.

 

[Teufelsdreck]

Seriously

I was pumped when Toronto scored to tie 3-3 but then thought "oh no, 3 point games are bad for us" and "I can't believe I'm happy Toronto tied the game late!"

Then Montreal scored to take the lead and was sad but thought "hey no 3 point game!" and "**** you Montreal"

It was confusing for sure

You have no control over what any team does. If Montreal or Toronto makes the playoffs, so be it. But they're not the only teams to consider. There's also Tampa Bay, not to mention Boston and Detroit.

 

[Do Make Say Think]

I like Boston, don't care about Boston and have mild feelings towards Detroit

I ****ing hate Montreal and find Toronto hilariously bad

Quick is overrated

 

[Qward]

Quick is overrated

Nes'quick is pretty good.

 

[aragorn]

Quick is overrated

Two rings say otherwise.

 

[Caeldan]

LA has managed to somehow perfect the 'we'll play well enough to just make it into the playoffs, and then have a team designed for when the rules change' system. Or as Burke likes to put it, truculence.

 

[Six Assets]

Quick is good but put him on Ottawa and he wouldn't be any better than Anderson

 

[L'Aveuglette]

Johansen is apparently out of shape and hasn't played a single pre-season game due to his contract demands, yet the Jackets are playing him after one practice.

Ok.

 

[aragorn]

That doesn't bode well for Ottawa, personally I think they would be a lot better & a goalie like Quick would guarantee Ottawa in the playoffs. He is much more consistent than Anderson IMO. How good is Montreal without Price?

 

[OttawaSenators11]

1-0 WSH.

 

[OttawaSenators11]

WSH can actually thank Subban for that giveaway, which lead to the 1st goal.

 

[Super Cake]

I honestly would rather have Price. Price seems like the type of goalie who play great even if you put him behind a **** defense.

 

[Vesa Awesaka]

Quick would not survive behind an Ottawa defense. Hes super atheletic but overplays everything. Anderson probably has some of the best reflexes of any goalie in the league. Give Quick Andersonès career path and imo he wouldnt be an NHL starter

 

[Vesa Awesaka]

The only thing you can say Anderson struggles with as a goalie is when players get in his face. He gets flustered and seems to fall down

 

[starling]

LOL. 18 minutes into MTL-WSH game shots are 0-14.

 

[L'Aveuglette]

LOL. 18 minutes into MTL-WSH game shots are 0-14.

And they finished the period 2-15. Yikes.

 

[Qward]

Perry and Crosby already setting up for a race for the Rocket.

 

[Caeldan]

Maata with 3 assists so far tonight... I think I just missed out on him by a pick or two in a couple fantasy drafts.
