I really, really wish refs would call the dives more often.

The league could also add more warnings after games penalty or not.
After all it’s hockey not footy.

Agreed.

They gotta make the names available, too. I know that once they get enough embellishment warnings they fine them and then the players name comes out, but the number of warnings each player has from embellishing should be known, too.

Let them marinate in the embarrassment of it.

The game has to be bigger than the players & money. Those will follow suit. Idc about owners they’ll get fatter riding on it anyways.

Who cares.. The Leafs/NHL as a whole has become insanely boring.. It's barely watchable. The NHL has become the forth major sport.. Even in Canada. It's a joke. Let's Go Raps!!

I heard there is talk that Rask may come back in the new year.

From the guy that just whines and reports people that make fun of Eklund this is funny. What’s the matter Green monster. Is your Iron Maiden account banned?
- TurdFergeson

I don’t think I’ve ever reported a comment in my life. I’m sure a ref could verify if I’ve ever done that if you are so concerned.

And nope, my iron maiden account is alive and well. I don’t get banned, fella.

I just like talking and, for the most part, reading hockey blogs/comments.

Wrong wing for Mikheyev and he’d hate it being on the defensive line. If he’s put into a shut down role again I imagine he’ll be upset and it will give a bad vibe for the team.

I know everyone loves Bunting but he’s really not anything special. 3P in the last 10GP is not good enough for the top line. Sit him and see what Mikheyev brings to table offensively and then move him right away for the best deal they can get before he’s hurt again.

Dropped Bunting from my pool after the 2nd week. Best transaction I’ve made all year haha

People tend to forget not all wingers can easily and effectively change wings… basically the only guys in Toronto are Nylander (both wings) and Kerfoot (entire line).

That means when Mikheyev (RW) is back the only slots he can play at are currently played by Nylander, Marner, Kase, and Simmonds.

Therefore you cut one of those guys or the left wing linemate of Nylander to flip him to the left side and that is Bunting.

Bunting is dropping down clearly. Likely wouldn't be bad on line 3 with Kampf and Kase too add a bit of offence there. I think Mik gets a chance up in the top 6 but if he doesn't start producing it's likely going to have to get addressed since he won't like being dropped down into the defensive role again.

You must have the steadiest mouse clicking hand in the west.

I've reported by accident, like, 20 times.

that should not surprise you at all... and that's without MacKinnon

I've spent time on the West Coast for work recently so have taken in a few games - and the Canucks really aren't very good.

It would seem the league has figured Pettersson out to some degree - and Besser looks to me like he's playing injured.

Don't tell DrunkenCanuck. He assured me they'd be fighting for title of best team in Canada.

Bunting doesn’t provide offence

3P in the last 10GP primarily with Nylander and Matthews

Safe to say he’s not going to provide offence with Kampf and Kase

That being said their primarily defensive line 3 hasn’t allowed a goal in their last 6 wins so they’re not getting broken up until that’s over…. And if they stay solid it won’t be changing

Going to be interesting, going to have to change up something really. Curious what Keefe will do in the end there.

Oh I wouldn’t expect Vancouver to win but to be done 4-0 at roughly the halfway point of the game was super ugly…averages out to allowing a goal every 7.5 minutes (average obviously)

Lol nice! That’s certainly good for you tonight

My honest guess will be sit someone like Bunting if the third line is still doing defensively well. I also think it will be to pump up Mikheyev’s value to move him for more and won’t be long.

Unless of course Bunting picks his game back up

This better be a 5 minute major

EDIT: Good. Refs made the right call. For once.

Yeah, he's (frank)ed for sv% on the week now.

I had both my goalies face eachother the other day and I chose the wrong one to put in. So I still don't got a W this week yet.

6 goals in 40mins… ouch!!

Wish they kept him on so that 7th would fall on him too

As for your goalies how many more games do they play?

He's got a .769 to my .935, so the outlook is good.

I got Vasilevskiy and Freddy and can only play 1 per day. Hopefully Freddy plays tomorrow and not Saturday so I can get a start from him and Vasilevskiy on Saturday.
