Luke Schenn is a different player now. He is too heavy, slow and isnt as physical anymore.

Or the whole "LUKE SCHENN IS JUST LIKE SHEA WEBER!" thing the broadcasters were going with.

They roomed/billeted together... the excellence has to rub off, right?

The mention of Shea Weber, in relation to Luke Schenn, in that broadcast was just magical and not in a good way.

If Luke can catch you, he's still pretty physical.

Stupid rule, but an obvious violation. The funny part was Larry Brooks treating it as the NHL going soft on Ed Snider, because they didn't release the amount of the fine.

Adding insult to injury, the Flyers played like the flight landed 10 minutes before puck drop, and lasted 18 hours.

now we know they were all worried about the impending fine

Ugh. I'm so mad the Flyers traded for him. This video would be so much better if he were still with the Leafs

It's ok, lots of people confuse the definitions of words. I'm certain "probable" will eventually mean "definite", just like "literally" means "figuratively" now.

Just make sure Merriam-Webster gives you credit when they make that change

18-14-24; 12-49-17; 76-78-40. Rinaldo a first line winger???


Assuming/hoping Giroux is back for the game tomorrow, I don't mind how these lines look.

He looked better in Toronto's press box. He was so quick to get the Tim Bits (I'm assuming there's a Tim Horton's at the ACC). Now, he can't get a $9 slice of Lorenoz's in under 24 minutes (in his defense, no one else can, either).

Where they miss Hall, IMO, is winning that opening faceoff on the pk leading to an easy clear

no such thing with this team for the last 15 years

The Toronto Maple Leafs have acquired Luke Schenn from the Toronto Maple Leafs in return for Luke Schenn and a 3rd round pick in the 2014 NHL Entry Draft.

Giroux is now officially day to day and "likely" to play vs Ottawa

With a baby girl at home, I wasn't able to watch all of the USA and Canada games, but neither Eichel or McDavid did anything to make the think they were NHL superstars-to-be. I mean, they looked good at times (McDavid more so) and had some nice plays, but nothing really blew me away. If anything, Max Domi and Dylan Larking (both older) were the ones I noticed the most.

And I still want to see someone (preferably Sam Morin) to hit Max Domi in the face with a cheese grater.

One positive is Vinny might now actually be a little tradeable.

Voracek told Carchidi that Giroux had discomfort putting his skates on with the laceration, guess that's why he wasn't skating today
