The craziest thing about Bergeron is that he has what, 4 Selkes..? And you could easily argue that he SOMEHOW DESERVES MORE.

And he also happens to be one of the most liked players in the NHL, amongst player opinion.


If only the Selke wasn't a "whose turn is it" trophy. He should have more than 4.

four hours into the thread and we're already five pages in damn

random hockey thought: tyler toffoli is still second in habs scoring with the games he played despite not being on the team; four points ahead of third place josh anderson

Welp, that kinda undermines Ovi’s statement


Can't help but agree. Could be he's had a change of heart though. Live and learn...

Caps D-side of the puck is brutal.

They should decline all other situations in hockey other than 5 v 5...

Holl honestly has been settling in. I feel hes back in his groove that brought him success. Now up next lets get Tavares back on track


At this point you just have to take the good with the bad. He is playing extremely well during this stretch, will probably fall off again. Let’s just hope he gets back on a heater come playoffs

Am I the only one who just realized that Mats Zuccarello is 23RD IN THE LEAGUE IN SCORING?! 53 POINTS (17 goals, 36 assists)?! Holy cow.


I'm more suprised that as the 23rd top scorer, he has 53 points. This season has been insane in terms of offensive production.

I checked nhl.com to see what you were talking about.

When I saw 541 save percetage, I though my eyes were playing tricks. This makes those TOR and DET goalies look like Andrei Vasilafski (I can't spell his name lol but you know who I mean).

100%, I don't believe for a second that the leafs actually plan to bring Muzz back mid season. They are going to be swinging for the fences and Robertson is going to be trade bait.

Its really not up to them. If hes healthy they said they dont plan to hold him back

Thats what Friedman said, they have told teams that they dont plan to hold him out until playoffs... But its up to Muzzin when he returns as he needs to feel he is ready as suffering back to back concussions makes it difficult to tell when he will be back at this point.

But yeah I got a sneaking suspicion Robertson is being showcased. But rn with Brodie doing pretty well in the LD maybe they go to their original plan of a top 4 RD. But with Holl playing well maybe thats shifted to a Forward to replace Kerfoot or a Goaltender. To hard to predict rn lul.

Jones as in Martin? Interesting theory.

I feel the the panther goaltending situation doesn't get talked about enough with the leafs goaltending also being bad. Them getting a goalie would be smart.

They SAID, but I don't believe them. They're going to be doing the same thing they did with Andersen last season.

Anderson's situation was so bizzare I dont think anyone knew what was going on. He wasnt on LTIR for 4 weeks after his disappearance lul.

Bob has been fine, its the backups that are the problem, Knight is inconsistent and Johansson sucks.

If Bob gets hurt they are royally ****ed rn lul.

For rentals hes untouchable

But for guys with term candidate to be moved

Basically he wont be moved for a rental come the TDL (Domi, Copp, Stasney, etc.). But say Chicago calls and says we will give you Hagel for him and a pick done.
