I get why you hate the concept of Scott.

But in the context of the play in question, is he wrong?

Yes, If John Scott didn't know he was a marked goon than he is as dumb as he is talentless. It has nothing to do with Phaneuf. Scott brought it upon himself. Not to mention it's 2013 going into 2014, using gender related insults is lame.

If you want to take a shot at the NHL, consider that apparently it would have awarded the Leafs a goal early on if the puck hadn't been kicked in, even though the whistle had blown. Weird.

Well didn't start as well as I'd like but down 3-0 I saw a lot I like.

 

I saw push back with the uneven officiating. I saw them out shoot, hustle and play when they needed at the end.

 

At this point a split is good with the promise I saw.

 

Adjustments' still to be made but trending upward on my scale.

Maybe Pat's relationship with Bill Daly and the other folks at the NHL offices can mend the fences so that Kaleta and Scott aren't marked men.

So they really sucked through the first two periods. Nolan probably should have skated them this morning.

 

This team is just not in game shape. It's something that will have to be built through a lot of high intensity practices.

 

They'll look better soon.

 

I love Ted Nolan.

 

I think the sucking for two periods had a lot more to do with score effects than conditioning. The Leafs took it to us while close, got a lead, then laid back.

Wait, what? I thought when the ref blew the whistle, the play is dead no matter what. Hell, intent to blow (insert joke here) is enough to kill a play.

I'll take Stafford 1,000,000,000 times over Leino and that says a lot. Screw this #1 pick, it ain't happening. Get Leino off the team the second Armia or someone else can come up.

 

35 shots again and they are not boring anymore. I'm still happy and please convince Miller to stay!

 

Princess Phaneuf!! Love IT BIG JOHN

 

 

I would to see them bring up Luke Adam, see if he's ready, another big center couldn't hurt and he's been lighting it up in Rochester.

Lieno and the other vets are going to notice that Nolan does not like lazy mistakes. John Scott dig on Dion made me smile. The next meeting will be fun to watch. I think they will bring back Kaleta at mid season. He has the hustle and drive that Nolan likes.

So calling someone a pu$$ie is out?

  • I don't like his jerkoff name. I don't like his jerk-off face.
    I don't like his jerk-off behavior, and I don't like him, the jerkoff. Lol, agreed!!! The Leafs in general seemed to play chippy both games, almost like they didn't think the sabres could or would react. If it wasn't hockey night in Canada and all the bad press the team has had from the Kaleta and Scott incidents I have to believe it would have been a different story!!!

After review, the ref's explanation was, no goal, the puck was kicked in.

What did he do during this play exactly? He got subbed by a falling/sliding phaneuf, he gets up and almost get his faced sliced off by orr and then gets jumped from behind by the other leaf idiot that got tossed from the game?

That does not mean that if it wasn't kicked in it would have counted in spite of the whistle blowing. I'm 99.999999999% certain that if it wasn't kicked, it would have been disallowed because the referee blew the play dead before the puck crossed the line.

I'm pretty sure (87.995%) that you're right. It was just a weird explanation, like the war room somehow missed the quick whistle.

Hello Everyone, what a nice evening... :)

Blow it out yer ass.

 

Most favored Team status in full effect.

 

I usually root for the Leafs, but the buttercup calls they got tonight piss me off to no end. Why did John Scott get kicked out? Because the rest of the Leafs are a bunch of pu$$ies and the refs were afraid he was going to hurt one of them? That truly was an unbelievable call.

 

Millbank, enjoy another first round exit.

clearly has not been a great week on the political front for Toronto. Mayor simply a ridiculous man. As contrast , it has been a excellent week for those who support Sabres. Even tonight while a loss on the scoreboard, a win from a effort and team building perspective. I am guessing Nolan will have team playing emotional , combative hockey , creating excitement again for all teams followers. Imagine the big decision will be , does team continue on with trading and drafting youth, or fill needed holes with vets. Really believe Nolan will create a emotional environment that will put this team closer than many would have imagined.
