Bruins are toast. Even their fans don't want to face the Leafs.

Yup and people keep saying our players need to be rested for the playoffs. Regular season matters. We have the second best goal diff, but are 3rd in our division.

With a game in hand, and a lot of hockey left. It's gonna be okay.

I don't even know any of that Manga stuff, I picked a movie at random because I wanted to watch some 3D and it was fun. Crazy visuals and action sequences, especially well suited for 3D.

Ya lots of hockey left still.
Last week it was looking like a potential tor vs mtl first round matchup. Now mtl is barely hanging on to a playoff spot.

Nylander has been a stud for like a month, but no one cares still female doging about the contract and wanting to trade him for a song.

Uh I wouldn't call my dream of trading Nylander for Ekblad a "song".

Things change quickly while fans tweak out. Like how Nylander has been the Leafs' best player other than the goalie for the last couple of weeks.

That Alita Battle Angel is a good movie, totally worth seeing in 3D. I didn't see it in IMAX 3D but i might actually see it again in that format.
- Zezel

I watched the Lego Movie Part 2...good movie, worst experience. There were 5 billion kids and several very loud learning disabled individuals who would yell their opinions at the screen from several different angles.

I wouldn't say they're toast. We would definitely be the favourite but we tend to struggle against them, so never know. If we do face them in the 1st round again we better (frank)ing win this time! Lol

Kinda coincidental that Uggy and Max were both at the same movie as you.

Any non Habs fan saw this coming.

They are not nearly as good as their record suggests...but this is the NHL and the parity is real.

We should be looking at wins for evaluating teams. I get why the NHL uses the “loser point” to keep things interesting in March....but look at wins. It tells a better story.

5 billion... Gross. I only had a VIP screening room available but I was kind of glad to pay the extra cost for just this reason. I hear those Lego movies are fun.

I think the Leafs would finally beat them. The pressure wouldn’t really be on either team...while a leafs/Habs matchup would be all on the Leafs.

Dubas ain’t done though, I think we see two more adds here. A quality add and a depth piece.

I won't argue the Habs have been surprising since the beginning of the season.

But the Habs have a 4 game losing streak while playing the Leafs, Preds and Tampa in the process.

A week ago, they pummeled the Jets and everyone was impressed, how things change in one week.

The Florida loss did sting a little and the slide needs to stop but I think they can bounce back. They always have this year so far.

Oh and they have just as many wins as Pittsburgh or Carolina btw.

Ekblad is a decent defenceman. But between the hits on the noggin and that contract....





EDIT: After looking out at some of his numbers, it looks like he defends the line well, and has a good shot, but struggles a bit in moving the puck. Gonna double down on my hard pass.

Oh and I think if you really want to know how good a team is, goal differential tells a pretty good story overall.

Also, how are Anaheim -54? Can you imagine how bad they'd be without Gibson?!?

Guess it could be like seeing any Marvel movie and a bunch of teen/young millennial female genitalias with their phone on the entire movie...
