Just thinking about how they talk about the future of sports betting on your phones during hockey games - it would be fun to see how the odds would keep changing on Matthews getting a hat trick tonight.

Agreed. Petan is a guy who is skilled enough to be playing top 9 on a lot of teams and top 6 on some. He could be a guy to get moved, he won’t get much of a return but I could see him as a part of a package - although I’d rather see Vesey get moved.

Vesey is running out of runway, hell he might just already be out of runway.

I'm literally just finishing up work right now, so I've got the TV on, but my back turned to it (watched all the goals on replay).

How has Tavares looked tonight? I don't think I've heard his name called.

Is he fighting the puck?

Fighting the puck. Made a couple of nice moves, but he just can't hang on to the puck to get what he wants. He has actually made some nice defensive plays, but on the other side of things, he still looks off.

The Leafs need to hire me as a mental coach for him.

"Hi John, I'm Atomic Wedgie. I've been watching you play, and I just want you to know, I know exactly what you are going through right now. Fighting the puck, not having the timing to make the plays you want to make, not hitting your passes, having your confidence totally destroyed. I've been there, man."

"Thanks, Wedgie. That makes me feel much better. How did you get out of the funk and get your confidence back?"

"Oh, I never did, John. I was always a terrible hockey player."

Watching Thornton on 1st line and when Hyman is back I think Jumbo can stay where he is and moving Hyman to line 2 should really help JT and Nylander.

Thornton (much like Hyman) seems to know what his job is on that line - get the puck and find one of the 2 snipers & bang in the odd rebound etc.

Added bonus is Joe in front of the goalie as a screen is a much bigger body and he has hands to tip and redirect one for a goal like he did on the beauty slap pass from Muzzin tonight.

Soup is the victim in this but it is what it is and he can move up / down when there is a need like days off for Joe or injuries.

Listen, if your business is all about no repeat business, I think you have a plan that will meet your criteria for success.

Why does Tavares need better line mates? I’ve always been told HE makes the stars. Look what happened to Matt Moulsen and Kyle Okposo when they stopped playing with him. Need that JT back.

Jesus. Get up Hutch there is zero reason to be down on your knees when the puck is that far away from the net / trapezoid.

Le Hutch pas de Clutch in full effect on that goal.

Want to help out Hutch a little there maybe? What a terrible defensive effort this period.

Working hard, not much luck, but not the same head-scratching plays every shift.
