Randall Flagg Posted November 28, 2018 Report Posted November 28, 2018 So what rule is it that, for two seasons now, refs have been trying to teach players by faking them out during faceoffs? It's really, really annoying. 1

Randall Flagg Posted November 28, 2018 Report Posted November 28, 2018 (edited) Rantanen has 40 points in 24 games, a 137 point pace. The 2015 NHL draft was decent enough eh Edited November 28, 2018 by Randall Flagg
Randall Flagg Posted November 28, 2018 Report Posted November 28, 2018 Duchene's goal tonight was ridiculous. And Brady Tkachuk has 16 points and 9 goals in his first 14 NHL games...More goals than he had in 40 games at BU last year. What even are the Senators
Randall Flagg Posted November 28, 2018 Report Posted November 28, 2018 IMO this is more impressive than the Crosby goals of similar style. 2 1

It's really, really annoying. Oh this goes WAY back. I can remember that when I first started watching hockey before the Sabres even existed. When we used to watch the Leafs play on a fuzzy TV screen picking up the Toronto channel in Cheektowaga.

What even are the Senators The BU fans that I would talk to last year were always gushing about him, regardless of his point production. All too often those stats are what drives the prospect discussions on the board. I envy the people who are actually able to see these kids play instead of just seeing a bunch of box scores.

Hoss Posted November 29, 2018 Report Posted November 29, 2018 I don’t remember where the conversation happened but it’s worth noting the Sharks went with their starter against us instead of Toronto tonight.

Randall Flagg Posted November 29, 2018 Report Posted November 29, 2018 The Leafs are an NHL team unlike any I've ever watched.

For me it is was the mid 80’s Euhlers when i was little, the early 90’s Pens when I was a little older, and the Hasek late 90’s Sabres when I was a teen but understood the game better.
Randall Flagg Posted November 29, 2018 Report Posted November 29, 2018 Landeskog-MacK-Rantanen broke the 100 point barrier as a line faster than any NHL line has since Heatley-Alfie-Spezza in 2005. Not sure how interesting that is given the propensity for teams to change their lines a lot, but those guys are ridiculous.

Huckleberry Posted November 29, 2018 Report Posted November 29, 2018 Nylander still practicing with a junior club in Sweden, I know he doesn't need to actually be in Toronto to sign. But I wonder if these two sides can live together after this season still. And the leafs really need cap space for Matthews/Marner. Nylander is right to think of himself though, even if he goes 'teamfriendly' on his deal, that only makes him more of a trade magnet to clear cap space. He should get the most out of his deal he can, because the leafs most likely would trade him anyway.

Their real issue is next year when they have to pay Marner and Matthews and Reily. Marner is going to cost them $8+
