King is a Humber Sporto now. I can confirm.

How about dem Buds! Ken Holland on Toronto...

 

"I think Toronto is one of the elite teams in the Eastern Conference,"

 

"Again, I think they're one of the elite teams in the Eastern Conference and they are a legit Stanley Cup Contender."

Well, I guess that proves it then. I bet he's sorry for doubting you now.

Leafs beat Detroit 6-3.

 

6-1-0 to start the season.

Pretty not bad!

I can't believe guys still aren't wearing teflon/kevlar socks... *smh* Jeff Carter had surgery today to re-attach a tendon... he'll be gone for awhile.

[Spanky99]

Sens have played the Leafs really well thus far, props to them.

Agreed.

 

f*** the Sens anyway.

Got a game now!

[Spanky99]

Brutal, that shouldn't ever happen... *smh*

[Spanky99]

Nylander and Matthews are lethal.

[Spanky99]

What a shot by Brassatd... sick!

[havok24]

No reason Martin should be in the lineup over Leivo. Leivo is obviously the more skilled player, and he gives you another option on special teams. Also while everyone was having trouble penetrating Ottawa's neutral zone trap, Nylander was cutting through it with ease. His transition game, and zone entries are breathtaking.

Pfft, don't you pfft me. Ten years is a big difference.

[burlingtonbandit]

Karlsson with 6 points in his last 2 games, what a special player.

And I don’t think he’s looked close to his best. Skating is far from mid season form.

[Dick_Pole]

Hurray for an 8 goal game

 

One time the entire year a Leafs game hit the under. Eventually these bookies are going to smarten up, but for now ride the overs. NHL-wide and especially Leafs games.

 

Penalties per game are starting to trend down (from 4.1 to 3.95 per team) but that's been offset buy a spike in PP% (17.5% to 19.3%). I don't think that's sustainable so goals per game might be topping out. For now it has stayed steady at around 6.2 per game and Vegas lines are still averaging under 6.

Whoops... he was wearing the socks and still was cut that deep?

[Spanky99]

Nice Buds... 1-0

Pfft, don't you pfft me. Ten years is a big difference.

 

Pffftttt... 24 is much bigger, lol.

[Spanky99]

Marner's wasted on this line.

[Spanky99]

Boom, Buds... <3

[Jimcanuck]

Marner's wasted on this line.

 

Nylander spent time on the 4th line last season. Like Nylander then, Marner is in Bab's doghouse. Do not question the master's methods.

Lie in traffic, thanks.

Lie in traffic, thanks.

 

Komarov has been brutal though. Kadri and Marner worked well together before, I'd swap out Komarov and Marner when his time in the doghouse is over.
