Mimicked peeling and eating a banana


Am I missing something on how this is racist?

Not trying to defend this guy or anything, just trying to understand what happened in this incident. Was there a specific way he did it or something?

I believe that it implies that Smereck (or however you spell his name), is a monkey since smereck is black. Theres a video of it somewhere and If i remember correctly he looks directly at him

Suspended 3 games… with basically an option to pay 2000$ or sit out 10 more (so an option to sit 13 games or lose a couple extra grand and rest for a week)

Somehow drastically worse than all the NHL DoPS suspensions…


Oof, I mean, suspend him for like a year or something, there's no place in the league for that, I guess Tony D should play over there,

It's hell, any busy NHL day, Draft, Free agency, trade deadline, expansion drafts are just 200000 AGM posts about the same subject, and even the forums blow up though the discussions here are probably more civilized

1) Columbus finish 6th in the Metro ahead of the Rangers (panicking for grit comes back to bite them in the backside) and Penguins (Injuries)

2) Laine bounces back and has a 60+ point campaign.

3) Leafs win the Cup.


Unless everything clicks and the big 4 go Tampa mode I think round 2-3 for the Leafs is semi-reasonable. Then again maybe its their turn for a Cinderella run lul.

Underwhelming.
I thought Remi Elie (another experienced forward we brought in for depth) played a much better game.

I can’t find a standalone clip of Gurianov beatboxing, but this is really cool.

Wonder what Toronto's 2nd unit will look like

As it was Simmonds, Thorton, Spezza, Nylander, and Rielly/Muzzin last season

My guess is Ritchie, Kase, Spezza, Kerfoot, and Rielly/Muzzin

I'd go with:

Bunting
Nylander-Spezza-Tavares
Sandin

First unit:

Ritchie
Marner-Kerfoot-Matthews
Rielly

So with zero knowledge of the Stars start/ preseason so far I’d assume what…

PP1:

Robertson - Pavelski? - hmm Hintz?
Klingberg - Kivi or Lindell?

TOR really has no depth what so ever on paper.

They BETTER hope their big four remains healthy, cause if one of them goes down their F depth becomes subpar

PP1:

Rads
Hintz-Pavs-JRob
Klinger

Or if they operate in the greenhouse formation:

Pavs-Rads
Hintz-JRob
Klinger

If you want it in line formation it would look like this:

Hintz-Pavs-Rads
Klinger-JRob

PP2 would look like:

Benn
Segs-Gurianov-Heiskanen
Suter

Or if you want it in line formation:

Segs-Benn-Gurianov
Suter Heiskanen
