I hope Lindy Ruff:

Stubs his toe against a brick
Steps on a million legos
Has warm pillows
Has the feeling to sneeze but can’t
Gets stung by a bee

Gotta get someone to stop the puck too, and I say this as a Fantasy owner of Vanecek lol

Would like to thank Washington for not qualifying Samsonov

So far so good especially with the injury news

The Stars top line is magic. Excited to see how many points these guys can all rack up without Bowness. And hoping we get rebounds from Seguin and Benn this year.

Holl is such a polarizing player one game hes great another he makes me want to strangle something

That said good game from him and especially from Sammy


He's a viable 18 minute guy and has a right shot. Toronto doesn't have a replacement.

Really happy with Samonsov tonight.

Another Stars goal. Love that we have an offensive philosophy that isn't dump and chase.

Can you send that to the Sens please? DJ forgot we have skilled players now. Why is Alex DeBrincat dumping the puck in with 20 seconds left in a game we’re losing

I think the Wild might have a goaltending issue rn

MAF looks worse than he did in Chicago

2 games 7.14 GAA 0.800 sv

Looks like Cole is cleared


The entire argument for the person who accused her was pretty much doomed from the beginning

For one this is the nhl who have a habit of opening and closing investigations faster then me making changes to my sleep schedule

And two if this happened why didn’t or couldn’t she take this to court or at the very least attempt inform law enforcement (not picking a side just something to note about her claim on Twitter)

Fun fact: JT Miller has been on the ice for more goals against than our starting goaltender Demko. Effort has been optional these past couple games I guess

To me, it seems like the defensive system is the problem (goaltending def could be better tho). Too many missed assignments, bad backchecking, bad rebound control, etc

Also playing your best two goal scorers on the 4th line instead of your superstar winger isn't a good look

My quick evaluation on each of the habs that played tonight:

Gallagher: ENERGY IN ENERGY OUT JEEZ WHEN DID HE GET FAST. B+

Hoffman: i dont need to explain why he gets an F


Gally is so fast i still can't believe it

And freaking Hoffman, he has been useless since day 1 and I hated this signing since day 1. I'm sending him to AHL before Slaf no cap

Yeah at this point I don’t want Eklund, Bordeleau, Gushchin, Merkley, etc near SJ. Let those guy play on a winning team. The Cuda could probably beat the Sharks.

I was there. Not to split hairs, but the Devils had 39 shots. "Fire Lindy" was being chanted for most of the 3rd period. The goaltending was bad as usual, but the Devils are a soft team. They don't defend the front of their net at all. Bottom line, they need a new coach immediately.

they should've fired him in the offseason. they literally punted the season away by decided to keep him around. the goaltending is still as awful as ever but what's more concerning is that hughes has looked TERRIBLE. how many times do i need to keep bashing my head in to convince myself that i'm not delusionally cheering for a poverty franchise?

Leafs losing to MTL could have something to do with it

Thanks to that loss though we have seen some significantly better defense and may have found our new starter

As in general nobody can go 82-0

Calgary Flames are looking amazing this early in the season. Puck possession, controlling neutral zone, suppressing shots, dominating the offensive zone and just peppering goalies.

Hughes would do better if he didn't have Tomas Tatar on his damn line
