People outside of hockey don’t even know who McDavid. Marketing isn’t their strong suit

We sincerely apologize for the extended downtime. Our hosting provider, XenForo Cloud, encountered a major issue with their backup system, which unfortunately resulted in the loss of some critical data from the past year.
What This Means for You:
- If you created an account after March 2024, it no longer exists. You will need to sign up again to access the forum.
- If you registered before March 2024 but changed your email, username, or password in the past year, those changes were lost. You’ll need to update your account details manually once you're logged in.
- Threads and posts created within the last year have been restored.
- Our 2025 light and dark themes were lost, so we are rebuilding them. Light theme is currently available, but work in progress
Our team is working with Xenforo Cloud to recover data using backups, sitemaps, and other available resources. We know this is frustrating, and we deeply regret the impact on our community. We are taking steps with Xenforo Cloud to ensure this never happens again. This is work in progress. Thank you for your patience and support as we work through this.
In the meantime, feel free to join our Discord Server

NHL being niche sport/thing is their own doing indeed.
Edit: I, of course, understand they are also affected by hockey being a very expensive sport etc but the league certainly isn't helping itself w 0 marketing skills
I know more about Latvian Floor hockey through you than the average American knows about ice hockey

The NHL should test the Flyers for performance-depleting substances.
Ekblad is the first NHL since Nate Schmidt in 2018 to get suspended for a failed PED test.
Aaron Ekblad 2024-2025
Nate Schmidt 2018-2019
Shawn Horcoff 2015-2016
Jared Tinordi 2015-2016
Carter Ashton 2014-2015
Zenon Konopka 2013-2014
That’s all the players that have been suspended for PED’s since 2013 when there were changes to their rules/procedures on them.

He could’ve taken him in our Megaverse draft and didn’t. I did. Don’t @ that charlatan.
Probably our only realistic way to get rid of TORTS.
No. The last thing we need is the NHL shoving this story down our throats.
If I hear about Ovi breaking the record every day, I'll end up hoping he'll get Space Jammed and never scores a goal again.

Toronto - Utah game. A fight breaks out after a Leafs goal, and the Leaf player tried to start with a Superman punch.

My work here is done
A drug called Tortorella
A drug that was claimed to be safe, but actually caused death.
Carolina coming out of the deadline, trading Rantanen for basically futures, and beating Winnipeg and Tampa would be very on brand.
On brand only if they go on to lose to the Jackets or Devils in the first round when only scoring 8 goals in 6 games...

Just realized Habs pulled chuck fletcher. They have UFAs in Dvorak, Armia and Savard that weren't traded.
Laughton had his first fight for the Leafs tonight. Spreading that culture.
Has he done a single good thing for them since the trade? Leaf fans have to be going crazy
Go search "Laughton" on X.
Since the Flyers blow, the only joy I get is through schadenfreude and I'm getting plenty from Leafs fans right now.
