I am watching Florida versus Ottawa... the stands are literally empty... embarrassing for the NHL! Why are the panthers still in the league? Joke

Wonder how it feels to be a player there and having a half full shed unless the Leafs come to town? At least they have warm weather and low taxes... You certainly don't sign there if you care about winning...

They are not even half full... looks like there is maybe 2000-3000... and that is no exaggeration... the TSN guys have been talking about it all game. Why would you want to play for this team? Money isn't everything....

What's funny is they'll announce an attendance of 14,000 or something... they never go off the gate... just tickets sold or given away as part of package deals...

I remember a few years ago there was one for Florida... 2 tickets to Shania Twain, 2 tickets to a hockey game, free parking, food and beer vouchers and all for less than $200... disgusting

Which team are we going to see more of, the Saturday Leafs or the Sunday Leafs? The Wednesday Leafs get a pass.

I want to see the Tuesday Leafs before I make a decision... the Wednesday Leafs weren't brutal... that first goal deflated them... and then tying it up at the end only to be let down again... that game was winnable...

He got consistently worse the longer he had to wait in between starts. We'll see what happens this year. If they give Bernier the bulk of the starts and he wears down again it'll get ugly.

amen... finally someone with a sensible comment on this subject.

ask yourselves this question... if you were the coach and had to select (I"m not saying these logical questions in any resemble what Carlyle and Co will do)...

1) Goalie A has started two games with letting in weak goals... appears to not be sharp - do you focus on the softee and poor start and go with him again because he's the defacto #1?
2) Goalie B started one game and looked sharp.. appears sharp but just got dinged in the head again, do you put him right back in?
3) Talked all spring and summer about jobs being available, about going with whomever gives you the best chance to win... do you chose based on the 3 games in 14/15 or last years meltdown?

Is there a joke behind that?

ya ek turned down Shania at a Preds game or something.

only one who believes that BS is ek himself

Except that's Save Percentage, not Goals Against Average...

And up until Christmas, Reimer's SV% was .925 and Bernier's was .929...

Are those stats facts or what?



- SofaKingBored

stop with the logic... you KNOW that has no place in here.

I have a feeling the Tuesday Leafs are in for a bit of a track meet. Going to be a real north/south game.

I see someone answered that, and I don't need a ban with a game tomorrow.

It's not completely impossible. I guess. I'm not sure what wife, girlfriend or even husband for that matter wouldn't hand over a hall pass if Shania Twain is offering though.
