Around the League: You Like Mammoth?

Lol Leafs...

fff yeah, i wasn’t going to watch but turning it on now

 

[valkynax]

lolololo

Panthers took those terrible penalties and killed all momentum….very dumb on their part but we got a game with 5 to go so let’s see what happens

Edit: huge goal by TO

Knies probably sealed it.

 

[bbud]

I recall the earlier post I made lol
Leafs got one more lets see )

 

[valkynax]

5-4 TOR, FLD got another back

And the plot thickens...

 

[arttk]

f***ing hell Florida

 

[valkynax]

Alright, TOR took game 1.

Good thing they didn't blow it.

 

[Jack Burton]

Whoever figures out to NOT sit on a lead and play 60 minutes will probably win the Cup this year.

Crazy but it is what it is this year

 

[SelltheTeamFrancesco]

After the final whistle Marner has his back turned to Matthew Tkachuk who then proceeds to cross check him in the back. What a sore loser.

6 more to go and if anyone knows how to blow it better than anyone, it’s TO

let’s see what happens as Florida will be ready for game 2

 

[vadim sharifijanov]

disappointed. at this pt i expect a crazy ass comeback every night

 

[Jyrki]

Hate the Leafs, but the Panthers just can't help themselves with their shenanigans. Can both teams be DQ'ed and the Canes-Caps series be considered the ECF?

 

[Attack Vector]

Leafs will never get their #1 goaltender.

 

[AwesomeInTheory]

I can't cheer for Toronto. The insufferable 'Canada's Team' nonsense and the dickriding the media would be doing from now until I die would be intolerable.

If Utah had reeled us in, I'm not convinced there would have been a chance in the world that the Canucks would have moved from 14th to 4th overall in this draft.

Let's face it. When it comes to the drop of the lottery balls, this franchise is cursed. Vancouver entered the league the same year as Buffalo--and how many times have they drafted first overall?

in Vancouver--not a single time. And doubt it ever happens in my life-time.

Cue Wetcoaster's WheelOfMisfortune.txt copy pasta.

Just crazy that Bennet gets away once again with another head shot taking a player out of a playoff game. I guess we fans will support whatever the players do as long as they win, but injuring the other team with dirty head shots on your way to a cup final is something else. What a freaking turd. Like Wilson. It's not like players like this don't impact the game already with their physicality, so there's no need to be dishing out cheap shots.

Hope dickhead is suspended for multiple games.

Dirty player. Say what you want about this team, I'm so glad I don't have to embarrass myself the way Panthers fans do trying to defend this kind of behaviour. At the end of the day, hockey is just a game/sport. Doing dirty, loser shit like this which can affect more than just the game at hand - can easily cause a hyperextended knee, which often does result in further ligament damage in the knee.

Marner not looking like a playoff "choker" now

Lol i could have hit him harder with a pillow. Stolarz is too soft for the game if that dropped him.

I'd love Benny in Gangcouver. And Wilson for that matter. I guess a lot of milquetoasts would rather send the league an email instead of breaking a fingernail in any sort of altercation.

He did take a puck to the mask earlier. If the guy is throwing up after that’s concerning.

That's where I'm thinking his bell got rung. Bennett barely touched him. The people whining about that contact and a half assed crosscheck make me laugh.

Has TO issued an official diagnosis yet?

 

[tantalum]

Tkachuk and Bennett are dirty af.

Sure would love them on the canucks...(one should be a canuck).

Has TO issued an official diagnosis yet?

Given they didn't say he had the flu and instead was "still undergoing evaluation" after puking it would be very shocking if he wasn't in concussion protocol.

Good chance it was a combo thing. Hit with a puck then jostled a couple times again. Our beer league goalie had to retire from playing last year after taking a shot to the helmet and getting concussed.

Bennett contact may not have been much but it was also deliberate so dirty nonetheless. Just not a play you'd expect a bad outcome from. But brains are weird. One too many collisions with the inside of the skull can be a problem even if it's "light".

edit: he was taken to the ER on a stretcher which is what should be done after puking multiple times from an head injury. At the very least this is Woll's team for the next few games. They will need to work with him the next couple of days to get him off the goal line.

I'm conflicted when it comes to Toronto because I actually really like their team. I just hate their fanbase and media.

Same. I get through the confusion in my head by simply focusing on one thing if the astounding happens:

Sure will be nice to see Tanev lift the cup over his head.

That said I think they have a long ways to go and there are some gaps in their team. If they can withstand the bullying of the Panthers then they are on to something.

 

[Jerry the great]

Has Sam Bennett been sent to Guantanamo yet? Toronto media going after him harder than anyone went after Epstein.
