For sure it was a clean hit. Looking down at the wrong moment has ended more careers than Sauers...

Bummer. By all accounts seemed like he had some real promise to him.

32, signed until the end of time and injured...
At most, the offer should be Leivo, Gardiner and a 2rd rd pick..

- PatC80


ugh Gardiner in every trade

He is a big part of the reason the Leafs have been decent since Rielly went down. gets no respect

I think there is a remote possibility Karlsson makes it to UFA.

No way in hell Doughty leaves sunny California.

- Atomic Wedgie


With Doughty it depends. He's been doing a lot of Richard swinging to the media and if he backs up his talk he is asking for north of $75mil... Not sure LA can work with that.

Only three players in the last 30 years scored more even-strength goals after their first 124 NHL games than Auston Matthews:

1. Teemu Selanne (64)
2. Eric Lindros (59)
3. Pavel Bure (55)
4. Auston Matthews (53)

- nbboy


And those guys all played in higher scoring eras, so really Matthews is the best.

its not that I don't have respect for him. I think he is a good player, and is cleaning up his game..

Gardiner is included because the Habs won't accept only crap players for Weber.

His 10 pts in 6 games ain't worth poop with all those giveaways. He never puts his stick in the back of guys. Not mean enough. Can't rim the puck like polak. Trade his ass

- Atomic Wedgie

Yeah, it's likely Doughty pulls a Stamkos and waits to the last minute to sign an 8-year deal with LA... but there's always a possibility, albeit slim, that he tests free agency waters.

We don't yet know how deep Matthews-inception play made it into Drew's subconscious at the ASG.

Love it! (frank) Laine, and his disgusting beard.

What site is it people use to see which goals were scored Even Strength, PP, Empty Nets, etc..

i know. A total fail

And to further pile on:

Four of the goals were sweeeeet!

Two 1st NHL goals.

The Marner goal was fantastic.

And the Matthews goal - Greiss had the fantastic poke check, which of course ended up on Matthews' stick.

- Atomic Wedgie


Matthews' release when he gets it just up under the bar like that is so sick and disturbing. He's the kind of player, anytime he's anywhere in the slot or around the net and the puck is even in the vicinity, you get scared if you're not a Leaf fan. Especially since he can take the puck away from people like Datysuk.

Mehh... his giveaway/takeaway numbers are actually not all that bad or, at worst are on par, when comparing him to other defenders. I think Leafs fans tend to over-examine his greatest misses.

He's a legit 2nd pairing defender who seems to have picked up his game recently after having a pooptastic first quarter of the season.

nhl.com actually is pretty comprehensive. Just filter the report types.

I still don't trust him.

I mean, why doesn't he have an avatar?

How can we possibly know if he is being sincere if we can't see his avatar?

Also, the day after the game Doughty woke up with Bailey the Lion's severed head beside him.
