Gonna be a tough game for sure. We don't want the Jets to tie or beat the Leafs record of 10 game winning streak to start the season, do we?

I was told over and over again that laziness or soft play would not be tolerated, it seems like it isn't being tolerated and Nylander is being demoted.

Not saying the others have been great.

It’s pretty clear Matthews drives the bus in terms of who he is going to play with. People say it’s Marner who makes a big deal out of it but I don’t think the organization gives a rats ass what Marner thinks. There is one guy with that power and it’s AM34. They moved heaven and earth to give him the C a year early than they needed to. He wants Marner on his wing and that’s the way it’s going to be. I don’t think it’s talked about enough. I’m sure Berube would love to split them up.

It's not clear at all.

Coaches just may disagree with you and others.

It's weird how much people defend Berube right now... if he has no backbone and won't split them up cause Matthews says so, he is an idiot, but what is far more likely is he disagrees with splitting them up.

If he wanted to split them up he would.
I’ve never seen any evidence that the players dictate anything.
 
Yes, Marner and Matthews had two horrible games, more Matthews and nothing happened so I am not sure it's a demotion.. maybe.

McMann getting benched for one turnover seemed over the top when all of Willy, Matthews and Marner have had more glaring ones
I must say Willy playing with Pac and Tavares is more of a punishment...
 
Going to be a juggling act tonight, Leafs, Steelers, World Series

7pm start on a normal channel would have been nice.
My man, you need 3 monitors all set up with chrome cast/firetv and subscriptions to TSN/SportsNet/Amazon and you're set....my Saturday/Sunday setup has my girlfriend threatening to leave me for not leaving the couch for 12 hours.
 
Streaks end ...

I think the Jets are 2 games behind Leafs record for wins to start the season?
Starting the season 10-0 while coming off the LA series, in the middle of the Jays winning back to back World Series were some happy times.
 
No Lilly. Berube goes back to his golden boy Timmins. Robertson also scratched which is just dumb but thats Berube being clueless gain.
Tavares back with Nylander.
These are are the exact stuff Keefe would do

To be honest, I don't care what the lines are.

A loss is a loss is a loss.

Swap Rielly for Little m, if Berube thinks it'll help.

Might lay down a few sheckles on this and start putting it away and saving up for the 2025 Pontiac GTO, some kinda slick in Orbit Orange! Low 4s 0-60 yikes and that's the base engine 600ish horse
 
It’s a big, fast, heavy, deep playoff style hockey team. Their third line might be the best third line in the NHL.

Kyle Connor — Mark Scheifele — Gabriel Vilardi
Nikolaj Ehlers — Vladislav Namestnikov — Cole Perfetti
Nino Niederreiter — Adam Lowry — Mason Appleton
Morgan Barron — Rasmus Kupari — Alex Iafallo

Josh Morrissey — Dylan DeMelo
Dylan Samberg — Neal Pionk
Logan Stanley — Colin Miller

Connor Hellebuyck
Eric Comrie
Super. Then the playoffs come and that big, fast, heavy, deep lineup gets absolutely obliterated in the first round ever year, as they will again this year.
 
Some interesting things happening around GFL...

They might actually be running the place I work at. They supposedly were going to put in a very competitive bid for the contract that was up. If they do in fact win the bid, I'll be taking the buyout.
 
Holmberg on the third line with the way he’s played looks gross. f***ing do something my man.

I think I might try watching this game on my computer as it was kinda choppy on my TV last Monday. I have a Telus high speed connection which is well known for being a little farty. Or maybe I just have a mediocre TV?
