This Lora Bird from Ukraine just said Blyet.
Not sure what she means watching the highlights.
Is that a bad thing?

It's pretty funny that not only does he inexplicably think the issue is point shot threats, but he simultaneously blames the only one of our last 3 GMs to bring in a point shot threat.

You expect that bobble head to show up in a grudge match against shit talking Kane. I would have been in Michigan lobbing octopuses at Kane's head but this dumb Ukrainian bird I'm dating says not to go to the states for hockeys. What do I do? She doesn't get that weeds legal.

I was saying this while he was out. How we didn't miss him in any way. He was a nice plug in player last year plugging gaps in Tre's first season on a one year contract. I'm not sure I would want him in the lineup come playoff time not Tre's greatest decision this summer. I'd ship him if I could personally.

RE: Point shots
Reilly - muffin
OEL - not really a hard shot, but a bit deceptive
Benoit - a bit better than a muffin
McCabe - can actually crank it a bit
Myers - howitzer into the 300 section
Timmons - can crank it somewhat
Hakinpaa - ??
Tanev - muffinesque
So basically, the guys who can pass the puck can’t shoot, and the guys who can shoot, can’t really be trusted to pass the puck around. Simply put — we just don’t have a threat from the point. It just seems like you really need a point shot threat to have successful PP.

I was going to say something smart but im to high on CBD hash and non alcoholic beer.
I love these games where they largely carry the balance of play against a weaker opponent but fail to score and then just have brainfarts where everyone on the ice does exactly the wrong thing at the same time to give up easy goals.

It doesn’t need to be a howitzer it just needs to be an average adult male shot power-wise, the high end skill required is getting it on net without telegraphing it every time. The Franson half-clapper is the single best point shot we’ve had in 20 years, it got on net almost every time and it did a perfect rebound off the pad and into the slot almost every time with 0 wind up or telegraphing.
Whoever can consistently fire that shot can score 0 goals all year as far as I care, we have 5 elite netfront guys on the ice 40+ minutes a night we just need someone that can feed them bounces.
This team is straight up weird
When were good defensively our offense disappears and when we're going offensively we can't defend for ****
I'd like to say I'm shocked by the loss but I'd be lying, we've been poor for the last couple of weeks and it caught up to us
You can't play like this and expect the results to be stellar, we got what we deserved
Hopefully this helps the boys to pull there heads from there asses

The Leafs played a poor game more than Detroit played a good one.
Despite the two assists Marner had a particularly bad showing. I thought he was gonna cry again after they took his goal away. Then whatever that hissy fit was after he got called for a blatant trip was childish.
Not a good look for a guy who is supposed to be a leader on this team.
I wonder if Woll is slightly near sighted. Because in close he stops anything and everything. But he really seems to struggle with shots from a distance.
It's only a problem when they lose though.
Max Domi, he of zero goals and six assists, is the fifth highest paid player on the team. For some inane reason only Treliving knows he gave Domi a raise after scoring a whopping nine goals last year. Given play like that it's no wonder Berube chews so much gum watching the games.
He'd probably be chain smoking and popping pills on the bench for a showing like this if he could.

Mitch has been good actually Matthews is not a 100 percent by a long shot his wristers off for sure

I am not about to go sky is falling or anything but the way we have been playing lately if our goaltending regresses at all from what it is now, which is the best in the entire league...we are going to lose a lot of games. We can't be a bottom 10 offense in the league with what we have invested into our forwards.

Marner has been great this year.
I just didn't think he had a good game is all. He still got two assists though. If you can rack up points in a bad game then you must be doing something right.
It's not like the rest of the team had a good night.
