Thanks busta, so just looking into this stat, the Leafs are in the bottom 3rd of the league in 5v5 goals YTD. I would conclude that this is a little concerning...

ZBBM, you're a game behind!

Sunday hockey just feels wrong in general.

I get all that, but the salary projections don't seem bananas...but what I was getting at is that he's a really popular player with the fans, as well as a local boy.

Jays non-tender Romano: https://www.sportsnet.ca/mlb/article/jordan-romano-decision-puts-spotlight-on-blue-jays-bullpen-needs/ This management team just keeps hoofing fans in the balls.

So just doing some quick math... Gretzky - 894 goals in 1487 games (.601) Ovechkin - 866 goals in 1443 games (.600 and still going) Matthews - 373 goals in 575 games (.648 and still going) At Matthews' pace, he'd need 1379 games to get to 894 goals (OV could set that bar a fair bit higher), so...

To me, Chief is just coaching old school hockey...get the puck out of the d-zone, get it in the o-zone as quickly as possible, forecheck hard, get the puck, make a quick play. But it's a lot harder on the body, so more bangs and bruises along the way.

I'll allow it.

Should we start a thread for the 4 Nations Face Off?

OEL is kind of a dick out there on the ice. I didn't know that was part of his game.

You give guys that have put up 9 goals in 10 games a nice little call up so that they get NHL money for a reward even if you don't end up playing them. I think it's a good idea to ensure that your farm team prospects know that if they play well, they'll get rewarded. Having said that, after...

Nice Carlton...I'm quite glad to have missed last night's game.
