All the centre traded at the tdl are scoring even Jankowski

Jankowski sucks, but I was definitely on board with getting Cozens. Dach obviously wasn't going to get it done for Buffalo.

Hughes passing on Cozens is a big failed.

Montreal didn't have an equivalent of Norris to trade

Holy shit Utah are bad. Down 3-0 at home to Toronto in the 2nd with only 5 shots on goal.

And Benoit just put his thumb back in place after a fight vs Kesselring lmfao.

Superman punch LOL

Superman punch LOL

I saw that too lol.

And of course Utah scores 2 goals as soon as I call our their play.

No offence to these Leafs goalies but holy shit can I see them getting exposed this playoffs. On a "who da fook really is that guy" type tip.

That’s not a Superman punch, that’s a Falcon punch, it took forever to deliver.

Only in Leafland can the team that is 13th in GA “finally have the defense and goaltending situation sorted out”

Bruh. Lehkonen is so fn elite. Didn't know he has 27 goals. I want him back

I’ll say it. All those minutes with KK negatively affected his value, how he was perceived.

Old KK threads - people always blaming Lehkonen for KK’s struggles.

Habs lore is off the charts

Watching hockey on Prime makes me hate Rogers and TSN even more.

Hopefully they get things figured out.

Hopefully they get things figured out.

AND SN

those fig channels will be gone soon, when Amazon takes over in a year

...and all it did was dislocate his own thumb...

To be fair his ES numbers are less than Josh Anderson and they both rode contract extensions off of a couple good seasons. Norris is a much better PP option though. But Norris also averages like 7 or 8 ES assists per year. Cozens probably didn't have the value people thought he did if he went for the bad contract of an often-injured player in the same division. Not to mention Buffalo added a 2nd for JBD who isn't even an NHL-caliber dman.

Probably not many teams were lining up for a 30 point 7.something million dollar third line c.

Washington's drafting and development is so impressive. Not at Dallas Stars level, but up there. McMichael and Protas have significantly improved their skating. Good job by that organization.

 

[Andrei79]

I mentioned earlier in the year as I go watch games in Ottawa, but this Sens team is way better than previous ones. Staios has done some really good depth moves and Green has them buying into a system. They're much better without the puck and give a three zone effort. Night and day compared to previous years.

 

[TheBuriedHab]

Yeah Ottawa is a pretty solid team. Whoever gets them in the first round will be in for a tough series.

Their Captain sets the example. Like him or hate him but Brady Tkachuk is a great player, leader for this team.

 

[GordonGraham]

Another win for the Sens tonight unless they go on a major(5+ games ) losing streak they will make it
