Around the League - PLAYOFFS!?

[Shooter2x]

Why do we care what players like Kerfoot do on lottery teams anyways. Those teams are low pressure and designed for non translating breakouts. We already know what he can do here

Because we'd rather blow up the core than admit Dubas sucks

Am I the only one who watches other teams. This league is watered down to the max how much more cap space do we f***ing need? What we need is a competent GM not a higher cap

 

[Evilhomer]

Tough stretch of games here for Boston and Florida, so I think the Leafs will be able to make up a lot of ground on both of them.

 

[TMLegend]

Boston getting wrecked by Pittsburgh holy cow.

Boston getting wrecked by Pittsburgh holy cow.

5-3 Pens. Pasta with 1g and 2a. Most goals scored since beginning of last season.

Imagine, the mighty Boston Bruins, having won nothing since 2011, losing.

FWIW Arizona is in a wild card spot right now

Pens look ready to choke this away.

Useless ass good for nothing Penguins have the choking strench of Dubas all over them

Nah, Pittsburgh will win this. Boston is a really average team at this point.

We'll see how long that lasts. Not sure if they'll continue to get elite goaltending from Ingram

Oilers and Kraken are also charging hard

have to think that the Oilers will take that wild card spot. That said, Arizona is a nice story this season given the arena situation they are in.

And only 9 fans to witness it

Didn’t you say that last time?
We are farther back then when you gauranteed we would catch Boston

We lost to Columbus. Buffalo. Ottawa

Strength of schedule isn’t really doing us favours

Yeah I think it'll be two Pacific teams for the WC spots. Oilers and Kraken seem like the best among those teams

Not buying any Nashville stock and doesn't seem like Minny wants to do anything.

We will see who ends up being right. Boston is a paper tiger.

I could see Florida passing Boston setting up a Leafs vs Bruins first round.

I think it will be a Boston/Florida rematch, with the same outcome as last season (but in fewer games this time).

 

[LeafalCrusader]

Hopefully the Sharks win tonight. Don't want to face them coming off a 10 game losing streak. No way does that end well for this group lol.

???? You said Toronto would be ahead of Boston last week. We are 7 pts back

 

[Jojalu]

Dallas/Avs OT was amazing.

Mack winner. Now tied for scoring lead.

 

[HolyCrap]

???? You said Toronto would be ahead of Boston last week. We are 7 pts back

Yup. And they he did some serious goal post moving after he got called out by us. Pretty sure it’s another posters parody account anyways.

I may be wrong on the date, but I won't be wrong on the outcome. The next 7 or 8 games are a tough stretch for Boston in terms of quality of opposition. Both Florida and Toronto will likely pull within a couple of points of them, although Florida has a tough stretch of games, as well. The Leafs' schedule doesn't get more difficult until late February/early March, so the next few weeks will be a good time to make up ground. Now, for me, all of this is predicated on who the wild card team is - for instance, if Jersey ends up being the first wild card team, I don't think that would be a good match-up for the Leafs.

Nice to see Drouin quietly resurrecting his career in Colorado.

Rangers - Islanders
Hurricanes- Devils
