Rules...

some of us are more lenient than others yes
- Dozzer

sure..

in all seriousness.. the standard is all over the place. some things fly in some threads that would never fly in others. the coc seems to have alot of grey areas as well..

Really, so ur gonna use its our first b2b dude every team plays like 6 or 7 b2b this year, after watching the highlights you guys need a goalie most of those goals were pretty soft
- arnpriorguy

Let's see how many of those teams lose the second game of the b2b?

Just because everyone does it, doesn't mean it's any less of a legitimate excuse. Unless of course it's the Leafs.

they've played 4 games in 6 nights.. in 3 different cities.

did the canucks forget to fill the tank before saturday?

But that is what I actually meant. It is a compressed season and only the first week of it. If teams are bushed now, just think of how it will be in a few weeks.

I just don;t see Detroit or Pittsburgh ever saying that. It should be a balanced playing field. Oh well, some nights it just sucks no matter what you do.

Was that Reimer's first play?

we definitely need a goalie.

scrivens should be in the ahl.

we need someone more capable that can take on something like a 65% - 35% split with reimer.

.. or we just need to stick with what we've got and draft in the top 5. i'm not going to encourage a tank.. but i'm fine with whatever happens.

Dude. Calm down. They had an AHL legend on their team.


15 years from now, they'll have another AHL legend on their team, by the name if Nino Niederreiter

compressed schedule or not, i think you'll see alot of fatigued teams playing on the tail end of a back to back, after travelling in the middle of the night, against a fresh team who had a night off. those teams will really be exposed in a compressed schedule.

reimers first play? he started last night..

- Leafland

watching supernatural right now

I said unless its the Leafs, it works in both ways.

Four more years! Four more years!
- AdamFrench

Nah... Make a big move this year... they will spend some money before Brooklyn.

Hopefully Wang sells the team to Mikhail Prokhorov. (Nets Owner)

I know, it was by Phanooooof. Lupul must of been 20 feet wide of the net.

I'm not bashing the leafs,goaltending was the difference tonight period the leafs got 4 goals on 43 and the islanders got 7 goals on 33 numbers don't lie ,to get 43 shots on goals usually means outplaying your opponent period.

He fell down the standings.

if thats the case the sedins must have broken necks.

Scrivens started (5 goals allowed), Reimer finished (1 goal allowed). Reimer started last night in Pittsburgh, 5-2 win. Reimer will likely start saturday.

He fell down the standings.

They didn't outplay them at all though. After the first period the Leafs barley held the puck in the Islanders end for more then 5 seconds at a time.
