When Babcock wants to "Finish", he thinks of Zack Hyman.

He seems to be good at faceoffs.... which I guess give him an edge on Chaput who was good at.... nothing?
- Scabeh


so Chaput wins 50.8 and Thompson 53.1?

Thompson takes about 9 FO per game.

so over a season...my rough math says the diff between the 2 is about 17 FO wins.
or 1 extra FO win every 5 games.

the impact of that is nothing at all. big deal

overall its a nothing move, but if you look at the fancy stats..both rank at the bottom of the entire league with Thompson slightly below

that and $2 will get the Canadians a coffee

but they identified an area of weakness. Great. but went and made a move to fix it, but basically did nothing to fix it.

As a Leafs fan, i am happy about that

They should make one where she's tied to a chair and a bunch of guys drop loads onto her from a balcony.

So, did that stupid groundhog see his shadow or what?
- bobbyisno1


The groundhog said it'll be an early Spring. I don't know if that means it saw his shadow or not, though.

That chair girl should be the new groundhog. If the chair hits a pedestrian, it'll be 6 more weeks of winter.

I have not liked him since he came back from injury.
He gets too much usage on this team. Way too much.

I can just (frank)ing picture it how, Leafs and Habs series goes to game 7 OT.. faceoff in the Leaf zone. Habs send out Thompson to win an important faceoff.

That’s why Hyman gets so much PP time?

If it see's it's shadow it gets scared and runs back into the hole=late spring.
If not, early spring.

Tavares is such a complete player, it's ridiculous.

He's currently your best player with Marner imo.

Oh ok good.. For a second there, I thought he won the faceoff back to Weber, and Weber's slap shot hit Max Domi right in the face..
