So are you suggesting that Berube is intentionally trying to piss off his new captain ?

I was responding to you saying Matthews requested to play with Marner. Which isn't logical considering he was 2x more productive without Marner last year. Why does that mean he doesn't want to play with him to you? You don't think it's possible that Matthews is gonna let Berube coach and make lineup decisions like most players?

Winning over an old school guy like Berube is HUGE

I noticed you were using a lot of round letters. Don't deny it.

I don’t miss Keefe either. I’d rather have Berube and he hasn’t even coached his first game with the leafs yet. Keefe just wasn’t the right guy

They lack size, speed, and skill. Of course he’s noticeable.
In your first sentence you say that I said "Matthews requested to play with Marner." In your 3rd sentence you ask "Why does that mean he doesn't want to play with him to you?" And finally you ask if I "don't think it's possible that Matthews is gonna let Berube coach and make lineup decisions"
I didn't say Matthews requested to play with Marner, I didn't say he didn't want to play with him, and I didn't say he wasn't going to let Berube make the line up.
I merely said I believe they like playing together, and at this moment, they are. And if for some reason 34 no longer wanted to play with Mitch, then I find it odd that they still are, given your evidence of how much more productive the line would likely be with Domi as RW instead.
Matthews was being emotional - change for the sake of change is unproductive and makes things worse

Not too confident about us winning the cup but sure hope that we can at least embarrass the Devils, Penguins, Habs and Bruins whenever we play them.
Interesting that former assistant coach for the Marlies and member of the organization was there first hand when Keefe introduced it and didn't like the music idea by Keefe. He thought it was disruptive.

I think it is kind of stupid because it is not normal to most practices growing up, but also, is it really bad?
The whole thread, his only complaints are "staff had to set it up for the Marlies, and it can be disruptive to players".
The people telling him that it is helpful made better points than Han, he just sounded upset that he had to set it up for the Marlies.
Probably closer to a game situation than dead quiet though.

Expected goals are much more important than real goals, aren't they?

That's a solid lineup, not sure what to expect from Pacioretty.

No noise doesn't happen either.
I don't want to dive too deep into it (not educated enough, nor do I hope to be), but from the thread, other leagues do it (NFL) and studies say it helps performance, and Han just sounded bitter about it.
I don't care what sound they play (if anything), but unless they have soundtracks of crowd noise with people yelling insults mixed in there, it isn't like a game.
People acting like music at practice is an issue are just funny, it has pros and cons.
