TB know how to party

As both a 20 year old and a 21 year old he saved the Flyers asses a few times in this first two seasons. His age and his play as a very young goaltender, which is rare in the NHL, is what makes him a great young starter.

pretty sure that they don't get the real one, it's a replica made out of the same materials and with the same engravings and everything

I’ve been told the #Canucks are taking calls on Loui Eriksson. Nobody is calling….but they’re taking calls.

by that definition, almost every team in the NHL has a great goalie


I guess that's true if you're comparing them to the average hockey player, but by NHL standards a .905% goalie is far from great.

Yeah I think there's a few of them, replica, best not to give a bunch of drunkass hockey players something of value like the original

Nope....he's great

Jim Benning is probably licking his chops and preparing a contract as we speak

I don’t think either of those guys are looking at the Canucks and thinking “that’s the place where I have the best shot at winning a cup next year if I take a league min contract for 1 year”.

So you are saying the Stanley cup is like Lassie ? There is more than one ?


Can you imagine if Brady threw the Lombardi trophy into the bay? That was straight up big kahunas

Nope....he's great

Braden Holtby is too then

It's the real one. They have a "presentation" one which is the one they have in Tampa, and a replica in the HHOF. The original cup was retired in 1970 or something though I believe.

The NHL is saying the cup will be sent to Montreal for repairs

“He’ll get more than Barzal.”

“Do they say “(frank) it, give him $7.2 million, let’s get everyone on the ice!”

“He’s kinda got them by the balls.”

“I’d say he’s a franchise guy, he’s a unicorn!”

that seems like a backward way of doing things, but I guess it makes it more special for the players.

At 21 years old Holtby was in the AHL, Carter Hart was starting his second year as the Flyers starter #great

Parise LTIR in the future should've been easy with his injury history, Guerin seems like a straight shooter Burke type instead of a Tampa type. Doesn't want to bend the rules.
