Leafs having 14.5M in Tavares & Kerfoot only

SO THEY KNOW OUR IDEAS GASP


That even looks like Armchair GM, almost.

This may well mean that Pierre Dorion is a CapFriendly forum user. He could be any one of us.

Same **** different day. Anderson stood out in a good way. Team looked like ****. Montembeault let in goals that he should've saved. We had 5 Pylons in defense (I guess that's what happens when you sign 3 stay at home D and expect them to play great together)

The crackdown on cross-checks and hooking will kill Ben Chiarot’s career. He was atrocious tonight, and his signature stupid penalties have multiplied.

I mean Buffalo isn’t that bad. The habs were though. The worst thing is that the habs seem to bring out the best in their opponents, which isn’t a great thing to do.

I don't know if it's a coaching problem or a player problem. This team has 0 chemistry together. 0 hockey IQ in either zone. We can't make a tape to tape pass I'm the defensive zone and can't cycle whatsoever in the offensive zone.

Yes! To add on that, JFresh : "Chiarot has taken 32 more penalties than he's drawn in the past three seasons, most in the league"

Tonight could be an early make or break game for us, we need to start winning games if we want to have a chance to make the playoffs and starting 0-3 wouldn't exactly help the morale or our odds

Joshua Roy is on a very hot streak to start the QMJHL season: 5g, 7a, 12pts in 6gp.

One of his teammates is David Spacek, the son of former Canadien Jaroslav Spacek.

Fun fact that I definitely didn't steal from somewhere else, the Rocket played last night against former habs prospect Martti Jarventie's son, Roby Jarventie, who's a sens prospect, they might also play against Vadim Tarasov's son, Daniil Tarasov who's a CBJ prospect.

Armia was swapped with Toffoli at practice. All other forward lines remain intact.

As @Zuki9797 pointed out, Romanov was also swapped with Chiarot.

Allen looks to be the starting goaltender, thank heavens.

If Romanov-Petry is a paring, doesn’t that mean we’ve changed all 3 pairings? We had Chiarot-Savard, Romanov-Wideman, Kulak-Petry before

Things must not be good for Eddy if he can’t be here but Byron can. Especially since Byron is still 3 months away with a hip injury.

This offseason was one of the worst we’ve had and not for a lack of trying, Weber’s career ended, Kk offersheet, Price entering NHLPA program, Tatar and Danault leaving, Edmundson and Byron are out for some time, our forwards are good in theory but our D and goaltending tending needs a bit of help

Well it’s good that Hoffman is almost back, I’d assume Belzile gets waived when he does get back, we need our forwards to produce, that D to not suck and Montembault to be able to be good to even have a chance at contention

He’s out for an absolute minimum of 30 days. Which means he’ll likely be longer.
