I don't like Dustin Brown for one thing and not really hung up on where the players are from....hell if it weren't for Russians and Swedes The Wings would have been sunk. :lol: 

He certainly doesn't seem like he's a fan favorite, but he has turned thing up/on this season. There was a time when L.A. had the most CDN's of any NHL team, and maybe that's why I liked them so much at that time, but I think they still have what it takes to come back from this, I hope? I chose them to go all the way in the Playoffs so maybe that's just wishful thinking on my part?

TBH I don't watch much hockey until the playoffs but I like Torts and The Blue Jackets and The Lightning mostly because I'm such a huge Yzerman fan and he has done a great job building that team. Guessing that The Penguins or Bruins will make it out of  the east and Winnipeg the west.:thumbsup:

Torts is one of my all-time favorite coaches.  I love him calling out the NHL bullshit put in place by Bettman.  I was excited as hell when I heard the rumor he was a possible option for Minn.  Oh well.  “Tater Tot” is ok.

I like Yzerman too, but his rep hasn't been the greatest since he joined TB. Him snubbing St. Louis wasn't any different than Keenan snubbing him years ago. Contract dispute/issues with him and Stamkos and of course Drouin. Not sure what is going on there as I personally don't know the man, but I know something is ascue and I know St. Louis was glad to leave as was Drouin. Stamkos leaving was very close but I think Yzerman knew if he allowed that to happen, he would have been lynched.

Love him or hate him, Torts does a good job and has a way of getting things done. I just hope they can finish off the Caps. Torts would love that, as would I.

I didn't realize that...like I said I don't pay as much attention as I should because I do really like the sport.:thumbsup:

the Leafs are so fucking lucky this game....it should be 6-3 Boston 

No kidding....Boston has clanged more than a couple and Torontos first PP Goal came after a blown call.

Not to mention he took a shot and cross check at Andersen.  Which is why he ran from Reilly

Zach Parise out 6-8 weeks with broken sternum as reported by TSN.Tyler Ennis drawing in tonight.

Parise wouldn’t have made enough  difference.  He’s a “plus” for sure but we got through most of the year fine without him.  Having Suter out is our real tragedy.

I’ll shit if we win tonight.

Dude.....Parise was playing the best hockey he has played since coming to MN 6 years ago.....and now another freak injury has ended that. This is a massive blow to the team...

I would argue that our D corp is covering for Suter better than Tyler fucking Ennis will cover for Zach. I was actually slightly hopeful this would go 7 games. Its guaranteed over in 5 now
