Around the NHL - Part XLV (Playoffs edition)

[Siddi]

That is definetly on Woll.

 

[McRanger92]

This has been the most predictable playoffs in recent memory

 

[Machinehead]

is moving on from Marner enough of a shakeup, or do the Leafs finally go for some big changes?

Maybe they should stop having one of the worst defense corps in the NHL.

They haven't tried that a single time!

 

[Machinehead]

Nah last year was worse. Almost everybody played somebody they never beat.

Edmonton vs Dallas in the West is a re-run I actually wouldn't mind seeing again

Edmonton - Florida rerun for the Final

 

[Machinehead]

Edmonton - Florida rerun for the Final

That, I would mind.

Watching Florida play hockey is like sitting on cactus.

Assuming he doesn't score tonight, it's 3 goals in his last 21 playoff games for Matthews...

i know they dont matter to you but theyve also never tried having a decent goalie either

 

[mike14]

That, I would mind.

Watching Florida play hockey is like sitting on cactus.

you love it and recommend it to all your friends and co-workers?

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

the other options in the East are even worse

 

[Machinehead]

That's your thing.

the other options in the East are even worse

Nah that's Leafs Derangement Syndrome talking.

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

That's your thing.

oh im already considering them eliminated.

I'd rather see Florida than Washington or Carolina

 

[Machinehead]

Assuming he doesn't score tonight, it's 3 goals in his last 21 playoff games for Matthews...

The funny thing about it is that Florida's stars are never that great. They just kind of maintain status quo.

I wonder how their fortunes could have changed if they traded for McDonagh instead of Tampa.

 

[Machinehead]

I'd rather see Florida than Washington or Carolina

Washington, yes. At this point, Carolina, no.

I am so tired of Florida.

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

If the Leafs want to get their pound of flesh off of Bennett now is the time.

 

[Machinehead]

Florida is that team, and there's always one in the league, that wins because they've perfected doing WWE on ice and never getting called for it.

I hate watching those teams and I would argue they might be the worst iteration of it yet.

 

[bleedblue94]

The distribution of ice time for the cats is also such a major thing for their success. Their best forwards are usually near or below 20 mins a game. Trocheck last year was touching 24 and the other better nyr forwards were routinely run out there 20+. Nyr min distribution is always so top heavy.

 

[will1066]

Here's what makes McDonough so f***ing endearing. He rhetorically asks if Toronto is headed for another scoreless period. Then says yes, if Verhaeghe can skate it past center ice. Is it really f***ing necessary? To kick a team while it's down? Just call the game.

He's a nasty little man.

my co-workers prefer palm fronds, it's probably a climate thing...

Could be worse. Could be maple leafs.

Marner is a mistake waiting to happen for some team. Soft lazy regular season player
