The Athletic has a profile piece on Marner, and in it, his dad complains that Marner is never mentioned among those who should be named the Leafs captain. I saw someone say that he was worse than Nylander's father in terms of input and influence, so have fun with that negoation Toronto.
A bit scrambly, but Florida has the 2nd best PP in the league, them having a 6 on 4 and looking dangerous isn't surprising. Habs held Barkov and Huberdeau to 0 SOG, at least until the last 4-5 minutes of the game, shows how well they played those guys.
Marner's dad is highkey a control freak I'm pretty sure. Or perceived as one.

Has anyone in the Leafs organization thought maybe give Nylander some time in the AHL for awhile before signing his contract?
BEFORE signing?
He could have used some conditioning time there, though. Yes. But he probably would've had to go on waivers to do that.
That seems... high. I'd hope for something closer to Horvat or even Guentzel; the latter has benefitted from playing with Crosby but his playoff resume is very impressive (23 goals in 37 games).
Only a matter of time til they are banned again, don't worry

I really liked that Habs game tonight. This team is definitely different from last year, they don't give up until the period ends.
In other years it's like oh they have the lead let's not do anything else this period. Now I can feel the comeback coming in games like tonight.

Decided to watch YOU instead, a pretty enjoyable binge worthy show.
It's not just your 'cultural issues' dude:

Like the rest of the forum isn't here to listen to your hot takes. You can have an opinion obviously, but there's no need to bait ppl with trolling bs. Being a contrarian is not a hobby. You can be polite at times. Do better.

It's what he'll get based on comparables and pure PPG. It's not what he'll deserve.
You've shown your ass enough. I don't think anyone cares. In fact most seem to actively want you gone. Like I know we're just people on the internet but that can't be a good thing, right?
I'm not too fussed either way. If you came back and said you realise you're sexist and racist and apologised maybe that would help. I don't know man. You always say you're going to do better. Then you ask people to pat you on the back for not taking advantage of your drunk friend. I just don't understand you man.
To each their own I guess.
"Be better"
Does that mean recognizing the marginalization of black people and the objectification of women in the workplace, and how as privileged white men it is important that we are advocates or at the very least not perpetuating myths? Or does it just mean harbouring the exact same beliefs but being more careful when expressing them?
Not sure if I actually give a shit what the answer is but I do think it should matter to you, Member from Northern Ontario

Option A
I repent, apologize and will be no trouble. Just want to be part of the salty community again and talk hockey.
I was in the wrong.

I'm glad Babcock bucked his trend and started Sparks tonight. It's easier to say in hindsight after a win, but he made the right call and now Freddie can play tomorrow.
Freddie needs to play less. I'm still not 100% or even close to that in confidence in Sparks, but he does have a good record and battled for the win tonight.

I wonder when Wild brass will finally realize that this team is simply not good enough to complete and will make the decision to rebuild? Many contracts are not tradable but many others are and even with reduced values they should be able to get some fairly high draft picks in return.
Build toward the 2020 season when Kaprizov comes over. Tank this season and next in hopes we can get back to back top 5 picks or something. It's the only way we become competitive enough to actually stack up against teams like Winnipeg or Nashville or Colorado.

Maybe a Wild Exec will have a Big rant about Parise and Suter and how they aren't living up to their contract
Honestly those two have been slightly underwhelming but definitely not the low spots this year. Parise has 30 points in 35 games, Suter at 27 in 36. Suter's skating isnt great this year but it is getting better and considering 6 months ago people were not sure if he would ever play again, so he is doing fine.
It is Staal, Koivu, Zucker, Nino, Dubnyk and Coyle all shitting the bed right now. And pretty much everyone outside of Dumba has been disappointing in one way or another, and he will be out the rest of the season.
The owner is best friends with Suter, he would never call him out. But I could definitely see him going on a tirade if Suter raised enough hell about other players. You all make jokes about GM-Eichel, it's basically an open secret here that Suter has more input on team makeup than any other player and might have a better ear for the owner than even Boudreau.
How bout instead of your typical "I made a mistake" while not actually admitting you did anything, how bout you break down what you did wrong?
How are you repenting?
Taylor (or Tom) Pyatt I guess? Which is fitting because they're from my hometown

why are you all hating on TheBeardedOne?
i'm back so pile on me, i swear i'm worse. ALL my posts are shit. even this one where i pretend to care about a fellow poster so i can bask in the glow of my martyrdom.
ok but seriously yeah how about that Carter Hart, any chance he'll bounce back tonight from the previous game where he kind of sucked? i'd be psyched to see the Flyers get a reliable goalie finally.. i'm kind of nervous for him tonight lol, i REALLY hope the Panthers don't totally light him up, even though Panthers are another underdog team that i like to root for. i hope everyone plays well and it goes to OT and either Giroux or Barkov finish it.
ohh god what a vanilla post.. i just can't find any salt atm. except fuck the Leafs of course.

Some pretty bad numbers. Andersen isn't really day to day I bet
Hutchinson had every chance to be our number one goalie back in 2016-17 and yet both he and Helle floundered. He was a nice help to us when Pavs was still relevant to us, but he can't seem to find his game anymore. I thought maybe the change of scenery would have helped his career in Florida like it did for Luongo, but I guess not.
OP
OP
AHL and insurance, or even as Sparks' backup in the next game. Hopefully Andersen will be back and okay though. 'We' don't play until Thursday after this.
What's up with Joe Hicketts? I've been surprised to not see him on the blueline during a rebuild in Detroit. I thought he was one of their better prospects?
The comments that were sexist and racist, which I embarrassed myself with. I feel bad and embarrassed by what I said, and hope to move on from it.
I understand where I was in the wrong and have adjusted.
