Pre-Game Talk: Devils @ Leafs | Thursday @ 7PM

[notDatsyuk]

Willie is as dilutional as Marner if he thinks he is putting in a full game. I can see him saying the same thing in the playoffs. "It’s only been three games. What’s the big deal Bro, really?"

Where did he say he was putting in a full game? He said “I think all good teams need to go through some stretch where everything's not clicking".

Nylander is as big a clown as Marner and Matthews. You are correct about us fans. They seem to forget that fans pay their exorbitant salaries.

He's probably right - whether the fans boo or don't boo likely doesn't affect the outcome of the game. We would like to believe that our booing would inspire the players to be better, but that's probably delusional.

Is he really wrong that teams go through slumps (sometimes longer than three games) and that good teams work their way out of them?

Is he really wrong that the puck isn't going in for him (or the people he sets up) at the moment? If he continues to generate chances for himself and teammates, there's good reason to believe they will return to normal.

Definitely tone deaf of Nylander to pull the "we got this card." It certainly only has been a 3 game losing streak, but also 9 years of boy band hockey.

Wasn't he asked about the current losing streak, and not the 9 years?

If someone asks you if it snowed yesterday, do you assume they're discussing global warming?

I can’t make out the user names in dark mode.

"You say that like it's a bad thing."

I usually read the posts before looking at the name, and can often identify the user by style.

Locked skates. Stretch him out.

Who know, wild guess groin.

Mark Masters: John Tavares limps off the ice after awkward fall at Toronto Maple Leafs practice | TSN

John Tavares got tangled up with Chris Tanev and fell awkwardly late in Wednesday's practice. The 34-year-old centre was slow to his feet and immediately left the ice.

The Adams Award all but won this year for Keefe, cuz Leafs.. and this game better not help him cement it!!

Sooooo.. big game for that reason, lost 3 in a row - all signs point to a skilled NJ team walking us... guaranteed Leaf win then??

They’ve had their own issues lately and surprisingly putting the puck in the net is the main one. Even their PP has gone cold.
It’s almost guaranteed they’ll go off soon, I just hope it isn’t tomorrow.
