GDT: Jets @ Leafs 7PM CBC

[socko]

Matthews needs to start playing like Lemieux did with the bad back. No more crashing the net. You have my permission to play a little soft.

 

[Alerion]

not giving matthews or marner more than 5M Nylander 8m

You're just spewing nonsense now.

 

[Trapper]

When Matthews comes back switch Marleau and Kadri.
If we are going to have a 3rd line that just exists, might as well get Naz scoring some goals on the top pair.

 

[TimPeel]

Fagson makes it.sound like the Peg are five time Stanley Cup Champs

I know Hyman has almost zero finishing ability but I really enjoy watching him play. He really is a great forechecker.

A couple of more Hymans and they could win this game...Winnipeg is in a fog.

 

[The Kessel Run]

Brown too

Literally their 3 worst players.

 

[Pookie]

No they probably had some reason for it. Doesn't have to be a good reason. Research with several decades of games as sample size into questions like this has shown no support at all for pretty much anything attributed to the positive effect of enforcers. Which is a big reason why they are almost completely gone from the game. You weren't less likely to get cheap shots against with an enforcer on the team, there's no real support for an effect from fighting, there's no support for an intangible effect on the team because they feel more comfortable.

I'm sure they were liked, and made people feel like someone had them their back. There just was no follow up effect from that.

This is all widely available research, but you're free to ignore it if you want.

Do you think the decline of the enforcers has anything to do with fear of future concussion lawsuits?

Serious question.

 

[The Kessel Run]

Rielly has been really good tonight.

 

[Gallagbi]

Don't be that guy

 

[member 262271]

Don't be that guy

Not the first time either.

 

[Pookie]

lool okay...

Laughing out obnoxiously loud?

 

[PhiladelphiaKessel]

Just waiting for the early goalie pull and empty netter ...

 

[Chandrashekhar Limit]

Do something Tavares

 

[Nineteen67]

Will Tavares be back from vacation soon?

 

[Thissiteisgarbage]

One thing I don't miss watching JVR incessantly chomping away on his mouth gard.

 

[thewave]

This game needs more cowbell

 

[Daisy Jane]

(sigh)

 

[Canada4Gold]

That wasn't offside, kadri's skate was still on the line

 

[Cleetus]

Laughing out obnoxiously loud?

yes!

 

[ICECOLDBEER]

YEP ITS FINE TO SLEWFOOT HYMAN TO GET THE PUCK OUT OF THE ZONE....

 

[BigGulpsEh]

Leafs have played solid overall. They’ve had tons of chances and we’re way too cute early in the game.

What research? Link it.

 

[Havoc]

Something about Kadri's game that just takes Marner to a whole other level.

Tavares-Marner kills overall team chemistry. Keep this.

 

[HamiltonNHL]

Marner ?

 

[Daisy Jane]

It's what ignore is for.

i know. but it needed to be said anyway

 

[PromisedLand]
