How many goals does your Lord and saviour have in the last 12? Matthews had one great game and has been an average player the rest of the season while guys like Laine and werenski have been dominating

Ryan dzingel is producing athe the same level as matthews, and is more consistent

That is very cruel and highly insensitive.

The mere fact that Laine is trending towards a 60 goal season is more than enough slag for any one team to have to bare.

a 19byear old kid.

the other is a player you claim is a top defenseman.

I don't care what laine does.

the fact that Karlsson is trending towards a 30 point season is hilarious.

and you dolls think he deserved a Norris. look what happens when he is forced to play defense.

Karlsson is playing magnificent hockey. He is still setting guys up and making incredible passes. They have hit some very good goaltending but have kept on winning. Goals will come. Overall, you have to give high marks to a team that has implemented an entirely new defensive system and yet is still getting their fair share of points.

Lot of credit has to be given to Phaneuf. He has done a great job in giving the Sens a very strong second pairing. Looks pretty good from here!

Hahahahahahahahhahaha. phaneuf has been even worse than Karlsson.

Do you really want to go down this path. I was sort of hoping we would hold off until after Christmas before doing the Calder stuff

10 pts in 13 games is trending for a 30 pts season? I knew you were a troll but I thought at least basic math was a concept you understood........guess not.

Although by your logic that would mean that matthews is on pace for like an 8 goal and 25 pts season.......guess the Leafs did make the wrong choice

Your getting yourself exposed on this. Karlsson has been playing fantastic offensive hockey. Guys just are not burying the puck. The points will come.

He is just off his game, normally he does not make these kind of errors.

Laine is looking like he'll be a star player.

but seriously, nobody really believes he's going to maintain his 24% shooting percentage, right?

3 points in his last 9. As soon as things buckled down, and he was forced to play D, it all dried up.

You realize now, all that yapping you chumps did about "historic season", was all because he was so historically bad defensively.

You're comparing ups and downs of a 19 year old kid, to someone you consider a top player in the league. That really does say it all.

What are you talking about, Karlsson has been one big highlight reel of errors.

Like I say, I don't care about Laine. If I had to do it again, I'd still take Matthews. He's likely going to end up better. And even if he doesn't, we've still got Nylander and Marner, who have both been lights out as well. I'm happy as a pig in poop right now.

What I do find funny is that YOU are desperate to talk about Laine. You realize he plays for Winnipeg right? I love that you avoid talking about the Senators like the plague right now.

Is it because you know they're total crap right now?

This entire post is the definition of irony, coming from the clown who literally does NOTHING but talk about the sens, for literally the last 3-4 years.

LOL, yeah, you're so right.

Well at least this thread is about which Canadian team is better. Laine is actually sort of relevant finally.

I agree with you. leafs made the correct choice.

Number one centers don't grow on trees, and no one trades them away ........ unless the player demands to be traded.


Which leaf do you see as having the best shot at the Calder?

toss up. Marner has been the best all around so far. Nylander has been awesome too, and has the points to show for it. But Matthews is the youngest, when he gets acclimated, he's gonna take off.

Big step up from the Swiss league, where he only played in 36 league games plus 4 playoff games.

Much more travel. media commitments etc ......... I agree, once he gets used to the "grind" he should excel.

Montreal - Staying at the top not relying on Price..chance at a Cup run
Leafs - Playing good, future bright
Edmonton - McDavid
Jets/Ottawa/Calgary - Tie ...Ottawa doing well Cal/Jets stumbling

Reality, today this season, 2017


Montréal Canadiens .663 - 99.8%
Ottawa Senators .620 - 90.2%

Very Good chance a Canadian based team, from the Atlantic division advances to the Conference finals.
