GDT: Blues at Leafs - Tuesday 7pm

[ToneDog]

Don't completely agree.

He hasn't been his best but.

Tavares had 4 points for the month of January, 13 games.
2 goals 2 assists

That's #2 center at a 25 point pace on his line.

JT with 6 points in last 12 games. .55 PPG while Willie is .75. Both can get their cookies on the PP.

Do you remember when Willie scored top shelf short side on Merzlikens? He was lethal. He's scored two goals thanks to Demko and 2 beauties vs Wedgewood in his last 12 games. Sorry, not buying Willie can't catch a break.

I think the 'not catch a break' refers more to Bert and JT not finishing his setups - zero goals between them in 13 games.

 

[Roo]

I think o-dog is the one that nailed it

 

[PROUD PAPA]

what did he say?

 

[Gary Nylund]

They will be fine.

Well hell, considering your track record with predictions, I feel so much better now.

They also tend to bounce back after a bad game, and Keefe seems to get them to win any time the whispers start about him being fired.

Except when they don't.

Random thought for a pre-game thread.

 

[Roo]

My quote didn’t come through lol fixing it now

 

[Gary Nylund]

what did he say?

I'm guessing he's referring to O'Dog saying "this is not a serious team".

Words to live by it seems for this group of cupcakes.

 

[notDatsyuk]

JT with 6 points in last 12 games. .55 PPG while Willie is .75. Both can get their cookies on the PP.

Only two of JT's points (both assists) were at even strength.

Done, it’s in my post on this page. I swear hf on mobile is just so shieettt

 

[Evilhomer]

I think the adversity is good for them. Let's see how they react to it.

 

[ACC1224]

Feels like St Louis at the ACC is pretty much a guaranteed loss. Not sure why they struggle so much against them.

And this is why they’ll win lol

Hope you're right, hard to see it though.

Timmins has mono??? Right when he's otherwise healthy and finally gets a chance to play and get 1st PP minutes?

Man this guy is cursed.

Cursed or not built for hockey? I’m ready to move on from him this offseason, potential or not.

No room or time for someone who can’t stay healthy for more than half a season. 47 games is his max in the last 6 seasons (his entire pro career).

Which of course would be patently stupid.

47 games is his pro max. It’s been 6 seasons. What’s stupid about not carrying around dead weight? You guys cry about Lafferty but are blaming the wrong person. He was traded so we could keep Timmins sitting in the press box.

Not sure what you think mono has to do with being "built for hockey".

You guys cry about Lafferty but are blaming the wrong person. He was traded so we could keep Timmins sitting in the press box.

You're the only one bringing up Lafferty, who was traded so that Reaves could be DJ.

It's not like it's a chronic issue with this guy, it's been bad luck. You don't throw away a RD, with decent size, who can move the puck, and put up points like he can. Free asset, we aren't at maximum contracts, and he doesn't cost much.

This lack of patience is exactly why we ended up getting rid of guys like Moore, Marchment etc... and then ended up with people crying about it...

 

[ACC1224]

Can you even call yourself a hockey player if you've never had mono?

 

[HolyCrap]

Timmins is still out sick, unfortunately.

There’s a bad stomach virus going around. My whole family got it from my niece. I spent two days barfing and crapping. My bathroom was an absolute mess. lol.

Edit. Guess he has mono.

 

[rumman]

Mono, that should end his season……

 

[Fogelhund]

Depends on how long our season is, and how badly he has it.

At what point is it chronic? It’s been 7 seasons IN A ROW and every single year of his pro career (6).

Not sure what you think mono has to do with being "built for hockey".

I can assure you I never complained about losing Lafferty a single time but I saw hundreds of comments on losing him. And as I said, you’re blaming the wrong person. He was traded so we could keep Timmins, Reaves was always going to be here.
