She was terrible,I could not watch the game because of her

I fast forward and stopped a couple of times

She talked right thru one goal.

When the 2 were in front of camera , i saw the guy & thought it was bring your kid to work day.

IMO Lilly has looked great. Outside of the first shift

nylander has been dancing.
Marner looks good.

kalgren looks fine

Ho sang is an nhl talent.

Sandin's been fantastic today. Lilly's been good too. SDA's had a great camp and was good today. Kral just building off the amazing camp he's had.

Thank you gents/ladies

At the risk of sounding like a grumpy old man.

I absolutely cannot stand live hockey games. The game itself is great! It's fun to see them play live.

WHY THE f*** DO I HAVE TO BE BOMBARDED BY OBSCENELY LOUD MUSIC EVERY SINGLE SECOND THE PUCK IS NOT IN PLAY.

Like seriously it's unbearable. I'm a hockey fan, when the play stops I want to talk about hockey, the plays, the players, how bad Dubas is... Normal hockey fan stuff.

Instead I have to yell just to have a simple conversation. My god I miss the old gardens.

Bunting looks more like JVR-lite rather than Marchand-lite right now. He has soft hands around the net. Those are top 6 re-directs. Bottom 6 guys botch those. As every practice/pre-season game goes by I worry less about losing Hyman.

What's key is we have a nice committee of prime aged athletes to mix and match to replace Hyman and some of the outbound forwards.

He reminds me a lot of JVR as well, except more gritty. Definitely going to be a mainstay in our top 6 if he keeps this up

Wait until he gets that thug-rat on sire. He finna bite that thang, hard. Still hissling and hassling and hustling. He is going to do something a lil bit of different next season, you'll see sire. Not like kissing other thugs... like marchand does. That's not special, nore unique. That's just stupid and should not be allowed, weird too. Bunting finna lika do thangs when referees don't notice. He has the eye to that too, just like the scoring part. The guy is special. Finna pull thangs and hamstrangs. You'll see, just wait for a lil more while sire.

Nylander take advanced power skating over the summer?

Has looked a step above EVERY player on the ice.

Has made it look easy.

Honestly I think he's just lost some weight, he was an incredibly fast skater in his younger years but he really bulked up FAST for a few years there and I noticed he didn't have the same pop in his step that he used to. He looks a little bit leaner. I think at his draft combine he actually posted the highest score on the Wingate power test

Gallagher/Tucker is what I see.

Gusev can shoot the puck holy

Loved Gusev's skill in 3 on 3 and shootout. Imensely talented.
Willy was a step better than anyone else on the ice.
Can't believe I am posting this but I HOPE WE CAN SQUEEZE HUTCH THROUGH WAIVERS. He has looked awesome.

I get what your saying but Maple Leaf Gardens had the worse sound system. It was some old post WW2 loud speakers like they had on M*A*S*H. my ears used to bleed. Your right though, I guess it’s all about the spectacle and getting kids involved.

I mean yes you're right about the Gardens. The facilities there weren't I just miss the atmosphere. It was a place for hockey fans.

And it's not like kids go to Leaf games! Demographic of people at live games are all generally wealthy people. Bet there's less than 10% kids at any given game.

It's just so annoying, has nothing to do with hockey.
