I think Engvall, brooks and maybe even kerfoot.

Foligno matthews marner
Galy Snake Styles
Hyman Nash Mick
Thornton Spezza Simmonds

I think simmonds could sit.

I definitely put Hyman on the first line. He’s better up there than Foligno and Foligno can give you everything you need on the third

Is Nash ready to play? I had figured that was a few games in. I wouldn’t be surprised if they kept Brooks around. He’s been moving the puck well, clearing the zone, helping keep possession and creating chances. If they move the elders back, he fits nicely.

Mik and Simmonds have just not done the things you expect them to do.

Maybe they just go with the depth chart though.

On sportsnet this morning, Johnson and Scott McKenzie were talking about Sandin sitting the rest of the regular season because his salary doesn't count against the cap if he is on the Taxi squad. They were predicting that this move is expected to be made to make room for Nash

HHOF is for players that were the best in the game.

Its extremely hard to play 1800 games. If it was easy every player would do it.

Just like it is to score 900 goals.

Both are as equally as difficult. Chara will be a HHOF for being good at a "boring" style of play.

No one cares if you think its boring or not...its about doing things other players haven't been able to achieve.

I can accept the argument that the player who has played the most NHL games should be in the HHOF. (I don't agree, but it is at least a valid argument)

But the idea that playing 1800 games is as difficult as scoring 900 goals is (frank)ing asinine.

Then why has only 1 player in history played 1780 games?

I think Marleau's 1200 points is worthy. However you get them, that's a lot of points. 566 goals isn't too shabby either.

If it is equally difficult - why has literally no one scored 900 goals?

Its an asinine statement to suggest the two things are equally difficult. Good for Marleau for playing the most games in the league. But playing a lot of games is not in the same universe as being overwhelmingly productive in the games you do play.

Is playing 900 games as difficult as scoring 450 goals?

No.

So the NHL is relaxing it's Covid protocols for fully vaccinate people.
Humm. Hope this one doesn't apply to the Leafs .

> Fully vaccinated individuals may golf as a group, and also use saunas and steam rooms at club facilities with other fully vaccinated individuals.
