It does. It's insanely annoying that the second Toronto fulfills their promise to get bigger, nastier, and tougher, all the bleeding hearts crawl out of the woodwork to get all high and righteous.

Nobody said a peep when Boston basically gooned their way to a cup.
- Leeman4Gilmour

They won a cup. Their goons scored goals and made plays!

Bollard looks like the guy for ocean 11 that screwed the rest of the team.
- Yeti1181

Looks a little like jesse pinkman too

it was a high stick not a hit... then he throws and elbow on fraser when the puck is long gone and doesnt expect anything back... that is exactly why orr is in the line up... it was a love tap and that was it... wish people would stop over reacting to every little thing just cuz someone falls over
- DarcyTucker16

Said nothing about someone falling over. Orr could have put his team down for 5 minutes, which could have cost them the game. Done talking about tho.

Wasting his time there. Send him down

practicing with the big boys, learning the system, getting a few games in before his demotion is great experience.

Bolland needs to tighten his chin strap.
- Atomic Wedgie

Do hockey players not understand how those things work? They may as well go back to having no helmets at all if players are going to wear them like that.

Doesn't Bolland have a concussion history? Same goes for Crosby. Learn to tighten the damn chin straps. If I were an owner, I'd be pretty concerned about protecting my 100 million dollar investment.

Bodie seems like hes got a bit of game suited for the 4th line, Id rather him than Ashton

even if we win, im not happy. I mean, the Corsi stats say we should have lost this game. The corsi stats rule all, according to all non leaf fans.

Game play is always better than practice.

Whoa

Yeah. Ashton is a great skater, but a pretty lousy hockey player. Bodie seems to have more hockey sense.

Ashton has been predictibly useless. Devane should have made it over him.

agreed. Loved him yesterday. Today haven't noticed him until now

Phew... Nazo is back

Corsi is for losers!


Leafs need another goal, they're slacking off, it could cost them

Yup.

Bodie can skate, he seems to hustle, he sucks at fighting for his size but so does Ashtom=n

- poohcrumbs

I'm saying that helmets don't perform anywhere near their engineered capacity the way they are worn in the NHL.

It's amazing to see guys getting hit and the lid just popping right off like it was never there.

Franson > Gunnar

By the end of the season, this will be common sense, though it should have been months ago.

Game play is always better than practice.
- Fakepartofme

Practice at the nhl is better than game play against 16 year olds

Yup.
- burn

Better and better and better.
