Why?
Xzibit would be proud…
NBC has Hockey Day in America now? This is new, right? Showing two games instead of one with switching to ends of other games in between? Something new overlord Comcast did?
Whoa this thread went into sleep mode.
Whatever, Gillis added Maxim Lapierre for basically nothing on deadline day, this pleases me :china:
Now if Bieksa, Edler and Alberts get back I can start to get berry excite.
Pretty sure this is even better.

And on the topic of ref hits, look at this one lay out Chimera.

Leafs are looking sexy as of late. And Carolina and Buffalo have to play each other a few times, too!!!
C’mon leafies…playoffs is actually close!
same shit every year. The will probably miss the playoffs by a point. But it’s enough to get us excited for next year, where they will suck all year and then make a push at the end again.
lol, well we’re right behind NYR now, and we have a game on them. And Carolina and Buffalo still meet two more times. My nipples are hard.
No, our past GM’s sucked at drafting. Burke is a BEAST at drafting. Next years draft is gonna suck, so no point in packaging our picks to get one higher pick. Much easier to package a pick with either a 2nd round pick, a future pick, and/or one of our remaining players (McArthur, I’m looking at you), and move up that way. Mark my words, we WILL still have 2 first round picks come July.
Lupul has lit a fire under Kessel. Phaneuf and Komisarek are new people. We’re like ONE legitimate #1 centre away from a fearsome first line, and our second line could easily still be good. And our goalies are wrapped up for years, and look great.
Bring it
We’ll see. The leafs also have a history of drafting good players and then trading them away for shit. Like who’s the asshole who put steve sulliven on waivers. YEah everyone is doing good now…but the leafs always do good at the end of the season. So until i see them start preforming when it actually matters, i’m not putting much worth into it. Riemer is looking good, i hope he can keep it up.
Leafs back to back wins in pennsylvania, pretty impressive as of late. Whether or not they make it to the playoff is irrelevant, theres no point in getting blown way first round by Flyers. Not giving boston a lotto pick is what matters.
Yep. We need the Leafs to keep winning. I don’t think they’ll make the playoffs, but as long as they play over .500, I’m happy. The Panthers are only 7 points behind 1st now.
sportsnet showed the leafs last 5 years win percentage after christmas, and they’ve maintained greater than .500 every year, this year being the highest at .700+
I don’t believe in those random stats. Not saying they can’t do it but those stats are pointless to me. Like on HF, when people bring up these random facts of something like “the 26th overall pick has had a 4% chance of making the NHL according to stats.”
But anyways, the last stretch should be fun to watch. I just hope Philly and Montreal lose in the first round.
I’m having a ball reading this thread.
Zdeno Chara’s Brutal Hit on Max Pacioretty - Part Three (ALL TALK HERE) - HFBoards
The Chara hit on Pacioretty. Canadiens fans are hilarious.
Thank God we have a 3 province buffer from Quebec.
edit: lol fucking Chara
NO INTENT TO KILL
i dont think Chara intended to kill him or injure him. Sure, there was some history between the two during the game, but chara is a huge fucker. U risk yourself if you try to go by him. He will probably get a 3 game suspension or something. It wasn’t even a dirty hit. Just bad geometry
Was the hit on Grabovski a dirty hit? Looked questionable to me.
Dirty or not, and intent are all subjective. The action and result (damage) are facts. I say slap 5-6 games for him and he’d think about running another player into the board… hopefully.
Chara will receive no further suspension. I can taste the rage on an entire city.
