I've already built a trap that he'll fall into, so height won't be an issue

makes me realize it's been a while since I haven't bought any clothing... I'm sorta due for a wardrobe upgrade, but I didn't really care prior 2020, and now with the covid/confinement situation I've never given less (frank)s about it... like those t-shirts I found the other day on redbubble, I find they were awesome, but then I thought "when am I going to wear these anyways" loool

Yup, I think it’s the best match-up for us. Giroux and Voracek are not awake yet, if we’re lucky, they stay that way
- Karine Hains

Not to toot our horn (little shot at Aaron Boone if you’re familiar with that present story), but that Philly team had the second most points in the league since the new year after Boston, and they seem to have picked up where they left off. Down the stretch they were taking top teams behind the woodshed.

I mean, if I were you I’d wanna dodge the Lightning, too. I certainly get that. But Philly is playing strong hockey right now. Not the Flyers of old that grind you with physicality. They run 4 solid lines, the defense is young and fast, and Carter Hart has been quite mature for someone with limited experience. He can read where pucks are going to come from very well for a kid his age, much like your legend could in his early years (and frankly still does).

Giroux and Voracek haven’t put up points, but if you’ve watched them at all, you’ll see their defense has been stalwart and has completely shut down opposing top lines.

Ever since Lindblom got his cancer diagnosis, it’s like they’re on a mission, and AV has coached them well.

I’ve still got Tampa and Colorado in the Finals, but Philly should be a tough out.

seriously though I was kidding, if you're not a troll you're more than welcome to stay loll

Nah, man. I don’t troll. I just love hockey. The majority of us over there are pretty chill. You Damn well know the one who is going to be a pain in the ass, though.

hey man, not to toot OUR horn, but we just beat the NHL's poster boy (besides McDavid), on his (frank)ing birthday nonetheless.

so your defense may have been stalwart, but they haven't seen the likes of improved young guns like Nick Suzuki and Jesperi Kotkaniemi....

not to mention a Carey Price who seems hungrier and even more focused as before.

it's always a gamble and you just gotta know that going in. they were all good jerseys, sometimes they are just assembled badly. i've only been burnt twice, an old kings jersey where the logo was stitched on way too low, and a ballard era beaut of a leafs jersey with a yuge leaf on the chest.

but i got a perfect mitchell and ness baby blue mike schmidt philles jersey that would have cost $200 here for $25 too, so there's that.


EDIT: technically, i got burnt on luongo too. but i have 10 or 15 perfect jerseys.

- kicksave856


Schmidt was my idol as a kid. He’s why I played 3rd

Those baby blues with maroon are sweet as hell. I have the same one, but with Steve Carlton.

Well, Tanner might be one of them, but I don't think his alternate personalities leave his threads, other than maybe surfing the Leafers now and then. Not sure. They mostly exist to defend himself.

But our knife-twister sure isn't him!

so you're saying he's created accounts to make it seem that some posters actually agree with viewpoints? that's (frank)ed up

I'm curious, does anyone remember what were the odds of the habs making the playoffs right before covid happened?

yeah, he doesn't even try to change his posting style.

Good thing Canada isn't relying on him for espionage.
