New Blood Connection! Duke to King George…

Actually kinda love this.

Feels good to be the one inflicting this. I think we’re a stronger team having Barzal back at center. Balances the line up. We could roll 3 scoring lines.

Best game in ages. Really good to watch.

I lol’d, quickly thought you wrote ‘We could roll 3 second lines.’

NYI is a different look with Barzal/CizikasHorvat/Nelson down the middle.

It just makes sense to do that. If they don't have elite talent at the top, then spread it out and roll 3 scoring lines. I've been saying this pretty much since they got Horvat. If you can't out-talent teams, then try to out-depth them.

BTW, it wouldn't be a shock to see them go on a little bit of a run. Team is mediocre with players out. Players come back but need a game or three to get their legs back. Team goes on a run. That's kind of a thing.

Just good enough in fact that with the 10th pick in the 2025 nhl draft the NYI are proud to select -

We are so in the unsweet spot ..LGI


IMO that TR91TOR guy was so good that he kept our absolute team of losers from getting another top 1 or 2 pick to help him
And now Sorokin will steal enough games to keep us in that10-15 range .. I am not comparing the team from 15 years ago with today as we have much more talent today .

For as dismal as this season has been, another Leaf ass-whopping brings a smile to my face. The tank can have a night off.

Reading HF boards is like digging for gold. You sift through a lot of dirt, but then you find a nugget of intelligence like this.
