If I were in Okposo's shoes, I'd be thinking long and hard.

Almost lost an eye and now back to back season ending injuries to the bean.

I’m sure the Leafs will take 7 3rd period penalties so we can tie this baby up

Kadri cross check was a dumb ass play. Take the clean hit and move on, especially when your already short handed. (frank). Buffalo is still in this game.

Maybe Elliott had been reading garth. sabres always have our number but reading Garth makes me say ridiculous things about the sabres.

But seriously, why do they suck do badly? I only see them against the leafs and they earn their wins for sure.

Revolving door in upper management, coaching staff. Made idiotic trades that gave away our future for mediocre players. Draft picks not panning out. Injuries. poopty goaltending. Amongst other things. No consistency or continuity.

Oh that's right, that was before HD so you have no clue who that is.

I’m still confused what point you are making.

We aren’t 31st because O’Reilly is great at fade offs, the point is there is no measurable value to being great at them, so it’s a who cares stat.

O’Reilly is great at face offs. Awesome. No one should care

- sbroads24


The point I’m making is that Schopp’s logic is ridiculous

U could apply any stat & use that logic to show it doesn’t matter

McDavid is putting up points,
but Edmonton sucks,
so clearly points don’t matter

See how dumb that sounds?

Honestly he wasn't as bad as everyone says. He was coming into his own before the injuries.

I’d say it matters more how we are gonna get better than it does that we’ve been disappointing the last 2 years

Onward sir, onward

If Kadri gets any ice time it might happen. What the (frank) was he thinking? Just got out of the box about 5 seconds earlier and then he takes a really obvious penalty. I like Kadri, but that was just dumb.

To be fair...
i highly doubt u that when u were 20, u were an expert on guys drafted before u were born

Why should Gerbe give a sh!t who Mamula was?

It all depends if they play for your team, huh. Montreal fans like Gallagher, Bruins like Marchand, Leafs like Kadri.

Ok, but McDavid’s points have a positive impact because you know.... they are points that go on the score sheet. That’s measurable.

Is O’Reilly going to score more points this year because he’s winning more face offs?

In all seriousness ............ when did he become such a retard and what triggered this behavior out of him ? I'm out in California so I watch from afar but I don't remember him being this confrontational the first several years of his existence in Toronto. He was nothing more than a middling player IMO ...... maybe he felt the only way to stay in the league was become the royal pain-in-the-ass he's become ?

He walks away he still gets $11 mil as it was a signing bonus spread over 6 yrs.

He's already made 16 of the 42 mil in the 1st 2 yrs.

Just saying.

To be fair, he scored over 30 goals last year facing the best in the league and is doing it again this year, so he's not just a poop disturber.

Also, he doesn't do this sort of thing every game or something, but once in a while it seems like he just gets really pissed off at a player and does some dumb retaliatory poop that you just know is gonna get called...

He has calmed down in recent years.

His dumb streak goes waaaaaaaay back.
