it's about time bob did something for florida other than suck up all of their cap space


Lol. He has upgraded a bit from last year, based on what I've seen.

I didn’t watch tonight’s games but has Matthews wrist still lingered?

I’m in the opinion of Stewart’s that he should rest sooner rather than later or just fix it before the playoffs


yes but its much better, he takes full shots now. looks fine but ya never know, he also looked fine right before he reaggrivated it last time

It's much better. He's flinging off shots like he used to but his accuracy doesn't seem 100%.

the sharks add one more game to the "we need to rebuild" column.

fingers crossed someone knocks some sense into managements head because soon the teams record is going to.

42-52-9 = 40% winning percentage

in the last two seasons (last and current) with basically the same core that went to the WCF = you dont have a winning core anymore, stop trying to win with it.

Matthews needed that goal. Man has hit the crossbar way too much lately.


That was JT, it went off his foot, it's his goal

Watch the replay. Matthews shot it looking for a Tavares tip, but it went off Nurses skate and didn’t touch JT, therefore Matthews is credited with the goal.

With the TDL upcoming and a season that has spiralled out of control just wondering what teams you guys think could trade for the following guys and/or what your teams/others would pay for them. Lindholm would be hardest to get but I’d consider trading everyone on this list
Johnny Gaudreau
Sean Monahan
Mikael Backlund
Elias Lindholm
Mark Giordano
Chris Tanev
Sam Bennett

I feel like Montreal could be interested in Monahan or Gaudreau

I'd still be open to the idea of Bennett to the Leafs, but the asks for him in the offseason were absurd. I'd send like a 4th and a warm body if he's retained on.

He is a weird case, tilting both ways.
Like watching some games he looks very damn good. But not being a CBJ fan, don’t catch their games often and his analytics aren’t great to look at, then add if you don’t watch the games it doesn’t look good overall.

I believe his issues are size and skating, which isn't a unique problem among Toronto's what-if guys.

Power Play Goals or Points per Game? People use that abbreviation for either

Just from what I've been able to read/see, kind of seems to have some Hyman-ish aspects. Probably won't get that lucky, but I'd take a lower level Hyman for free.

These f**king toe picks, man. Just horrible injuries. I'd imagine he's done for the year.

He’s in so much pain too which is horrible. Plus it echoes with a lesser crowd.

Yeah that clip is a hard watch, you could see Ekblad was in a lot of a pain, I’d expect him to be out for the season, the Panthers will miss him and Barkov is already out, hopefully Ekblad is back next season and this lower body injury doesn’t derail his career
