Those were the days. Hagler had a chin of steel.

him and Tyson must be the last guys i would like to fight

Unbelievable 1st.

I've probably watched that 1st round 200-300 times

Been boxing in a gym for ~20 years myself, but no contact - only for the technical skills and overall training.

I hated Hagler because you just couldn’t hurt him. He just kept coming forward.

one of those very few that never took a step back

a true warrior - maybe the greatest

Back in the day a buddy of mine tried to fight a pretty good amateur boxer. He got his face pummeled and all the while the guy was begging him to stop.

My friend was a tough dude but he couldn’t land a single punch. The only thing that saved him is that the guy held back and just hit him hard enough to keep him off.

I finally convinced him to give up and we laughed about it for years.

well, there's your 1000 hours guy to know the game vs the 10000 hours expert to master the game...

The hockey IQ of an actual giraffe.

Still gets the job done that's required of him. With speed to boot.

In truth, I can't complain about that third line, of which he's a part. Giraffes are special mystical animals.

I can't complain about anything on the Leafs right now, they're in first place and have gone 15-2. (frank) yeah!

Game day buzzards!

Leafs 5-3

Yeah, 5-3 Leafs sounds right. Matthews on one of his binges, snipes a couple.

Bunting: 17 pts in 24 GP. 👍

I like how you constructed this sentence to not end with the preposition 'of'. Classy wordsmithery!

It's so odd that he's still considered a rookie. He barely missed all of the cutoff requirements

After practice, Keefe said Marner left practice for precautionary reasons. It doesn’t look to be anything serious right now.

Mitch Marner left practice for “precautionary” reasons, according to Sheldon Keefe. “It’s not looking like anything serious at this point,” Keefe said.

Marner will travel to Minnesota and be re-evaluated in the morning.

One of the interesting things at practice is Rasmus Sandin getting slotted in where Rielly plays. It shows that Toronto believes in him, and if Rielly can’t ever play, he will be the next man up.

Sandin was also quarterbacking the first power-play unit at practice today.

eligible for the calder

[quote=winsix]
Sandin Brodie is a solid option

eligible or the calder
- Zezel

Eligible but not likely Zezel. Raymond has 22 points and is on a line with Larkin. Bunting at 26 probably not going to beat a teenager for Calder. Something that will make Max dance is the fact that Woll leads rookie goalies at the moment with a 1.67 GAA

If Max is dancing I'm happy. I wonder if he still feels there is no reason to watch this team this season? He's missed out on some exciting hockey!

seriously though
I’m headed to mexico to make some bets today👍🏿

Panthers
Preds
Bolts
Avs
Crapitols
Hurricant’s
Pens(?)

7-gamess, your odds of winning are miniscule.

I don't like Pens over Canucks and Florida has been meh for a couple weeks.
