he's on pace for ~45 points. he was due to come down from his unsustainable pace at the beginning of the year.

a lot of uncertainty with years 2 and 3 of that deal, but this year we're getting what should have been expected.

If he gets 45 points, I think you're getting exactly what should have been expected.

Obviously expensive for the production but he also brings in a veteran presence that's always welcomed with a young team.

45 points is what most people thought/expected. However, it's not just Marleau, its the entire line. The line of Marleau-Kadri-Komarov needs to be separated

He's going to deservedly get it.

I would be very hesitant to give a long term deal to a guy who has a bionic ankle.

They're used as a shutdown line...not really expected to put up a ton of points, except maybe against the weaker teams.

If someone would have told me that in January this team would be #1 in the (frank)ing league...

You can't not give a 2x Norris winning near PPG defenseman all the money in the world. Regardless of worries going forward.

No Rielly again tonight

It's a mirage, they truly suck...them and Tampa Bay.

9ndersen vs bern1er

COL 9 - TOR 1

I have the a feeling the Leafs will win tonight.


Which probably means I'll be turning the game off halfway through again.

COL 9 - TOR 1

McBackup playing?

Anders1n doesn't agree

1 goal against? There's a bet!

Or are you talking the 1st 5 minutes?

COL 9 - TOR 1
- .HOHO.

MacKinnon with 9 points. Graham conflicted.

Larry Brooks of the NY Post: Brooks wonders if the Rangers might be able to acquire forward William Nylander from the Maple Leafs in a blockbuster trade for defenseman Ryan McDonagh.

He can keep wondering...

Pittsburgh isn't a good team, everyone just think they're good.

- James Tanner about the back-to-back cup winners.

Lost about 400 points and a game in both HB pools this week

Still in 1st...but barely, I could have ran away with my divisions this year....frick.

Anybody else miss putting their picks in last week?
