The NHL (Hockey) Thread: 2015 - 2016 (Let's see how Kessel does on a real team)

Free Agency is gonna murder your team someday soon…

Don’t forget Yak, Nurse and McThanos.

The sins of Tambellini, Lowe and MacT are going to haunt this team for a long time…

Oh, trust me, I haven’t :lol:

I just realized Burke’s, and Nonis’ teams, are also dead last in the league. And Clarkson got sent to Columbus, who is down in the shitter too.

I’m listening to Babcock interviews, and you can tell he already hates some of the bums wasting bench space. Our special teams are atrocious.

Ya that’s quite a change for Babcock haha From a perennial playoff contender to the Leafs.
Exact same situation as McLennan. SHARKS, OILERS, WHATS THE DIFF?

The biggest issue is that I’m starting to wonder why I should watch Mathias, Grabner, Arcobello, Marancin and other non-essential future core players bumble around? Like I still look at every one of the guys on our team and think “I ain’t buying your jersey, you’re gone in a year or two!”

Considering Arco and Marincin were on the Oilers last year, you shouldn’t put any stock into them.

To show them what? How to choke a 3-0 lead? Lol

The Kings are on fire right now. 6 straight after dropping the first 3

Oilers never really have been the same since the Gretzky era. Are you a fan Odin?

I’m a Sharks supporter.

Salary cap makes no sense. Leafs did nothing, yet freed up almost 6 million in cap space. Just by calling a guy up to not play, then sent him back down.

That draft we got who was playing in Boston University decided to give up trying to play hockey in Mmmmrca, and is gonna come play in the OHL. not bad, just took like 3 years.

*Kessel Run: Return to Toronto *this weekend

I have lived in Edmonton since 1988.
Yes I am an Oiler fan lol

Can’t wait for Leafs nation to boo Phil. Just because.

I hope they don’t have a 20 minute video of his ‘highlights’ playing before the game, while the players have to just stand there.

I hope they do!
And I couldn’t believe the audacity of that guy.

Stay Classy, Pitts.

What a fuckin jagoff.

@odin: the pens got the kid back:

I also heard they gave him that Sid 3rd jersey.
Thank goodness.

Seriously though, no one confronted that piece of shit?
I remember when McDavid threw a hat in the crowd for a kid and some lady got it. Connor gave her a stare and pointed at the kid until she gave it to him.

I would have told McDavid to suck my asshole until he went to a real team like Toronto. He’d make a good 2nd liner, after we get Stamkos in the off season.

I follow the Bay in everything. Sharks are a good team though, they choke up around playoff times but they win the division every other year. I’m pretty happy with how the team is looking this year as well.

I’ve always cheered for the Sharks to win. Got no hate for that team. Hope they win a cup someday!
I am glad we poached your coach though, always respected Todd.

Yeah Todd was a good coach. We might win a cup, I’m hoping we do but glory days tend to pass and if you don’t cash in while the team is hot it can be hard. We’ve got a good team this year though, Joel Ward was a really good off-season pickup, really underrated player who sets up a lot of goals.

Martin Jones is going to be the best keeper in the league in a few years as well. He’s godlike in-front of that goal as it is and really inexperienced.

I literally could not fall asleep after that Frolik goal on Saturday.

I was seething.
