That Pacioretty-Stastny-Stone lines scares me

"We need Reaves."

We kinda do, actually.

Go Leafs Go!

They better play better than Tuesday night or we'll be on the losing end.

I wouldn't be the least surprised if he scored against us.

Just a reminder, they won the game on Tuesday, allowing only 1 goal.

If they can keep LGK to 1 goal, I think it's likely the Leafs win.

I hope Babcock puts up a picture of Fleury on the dressing room bulletin board with a note that says "This guy is not playing us tonight ... what are YOU going to do about it?"

Subban beat the Leafs the last time he started against them.

Still no Hyman eh? Damn.

Are you talking Malcom or PK?   When the hell did that happen?

Subban technically had a bad night in net, but Andersen had it worse and the Leafs let Vegas have the puck far more often.

Looking forward to watching a team that doesn't come to town very often. Watching and beating that team 8)

GO LEAFS GO!

But the were in Vegas and somewhat distracted, Vegas can be very distracting to say the least.  My favorite watering hole in right on the strip, outside of Caesar's.  Old girl pours a nasty Margie and she is from Buffalo, LOL.  Only cost 20 bucks for double. Two of those and your on your way.

Highlander, I have to assume the NHL players are just slightly more disciplined and focused than the average, drunken tourist.

I think there's a whole subliterature on bogus regression analyses.
