I am taking my son to Pittsburgh to catch a hockey and baseball game in April. My brother in law used to be the assistant trainer for the local QMJHL here and the trainer there is now the head trainer

Glad Bet365 gives you an early payout when a team goes up by 3 goals haha. Kept my TB/BOS parlay alive at least or else would be screwed.

Didn't think so, just sayin.

 

Lol you really are concerned about whether or not I made a $5 bet. You need to get your priorities in order my man!

Oh, talking about 5 dollar bets are sad, especially when you need to work a payout, lol.

I do small bets of $5, $10, $20 all the time. I deposited $100 a month ago, and got my account up to $600 now. Would rather make small bets here and there rather than blow it all. I'll make the occasional big bit here and there, but I don't do that on a regular basis.

 

That $5 bet bought me a 6 pack of Mill St. Organic. Not complaining at all.

They're off to a slow start, but slow down there hombre, lol.

 

Of course. It's only 13 games in. But aside from the Core 4 (plus Rielly) the rest of the roster has some real problems. The core is playing amazing, and they're still not able to overcome the rest of the teams piss poor play. The defense has been an issue for years and years and it keeps being referenced but never really addressed. Samsonov was let go by Washington for a reason, and I think we're seeing why. Could he turn it around? Of course, but it's not like he's never struggled for long stretches before. And I am a BIG fan of Woll...but putting it all on him is dangerous.

 

I'm saying there are flags....major flags. They could get sorted out, sure, but it's not a lock...not even close. The doormats of the division aren't doormats any longer. Points are going to be harder to come by. I'm not going to pretend that I don't have concerns. They're too obvious to ignore.

Yeah Leafs are middle-of-the-pack kind of team. Not upper tier like Boston, Colorado, Las Vegas or Dallas. They have elite top talent in Matthews, Marner, Nylander and Reilly, but the rest of the roster is lacking which is a shame. If they can't put together a Stanley Cup team with that elite core they have, not sure they ever will. It's going to be tough to have a core like Matthews, Nylander, and Marner together again. Need to take advantage of them now when they're all in their prime and at the top of their games.

 

MLSE likely doesn't care though. The Leafs still sell out every night even if they're losing and they sells jerseys, shirts and hats etc. You think its frustrating being a die hard Jays fans, imagine what die hard Leafs fans have gone through haha.

The Sharks beat the Oilers.

 

Was contemplating putting like $5-10 on the Sharks last night haha. Figured they had to get their first win and what better team to do it against haha.

 

Oilers have been awful this season, like what is going on? Stanley Cup contenders s***ing the bed. NHL really needs to get McDavid out of Edmonton.

It's still early.

 

It is and it isn't.

 

If you look at this season in a vacuum then sure...13 games...it's early. But if you look at what plagues this team, as it pertains to any true success (i.e. playoffs) then it's 13 game plus 7 previous seasons of soft play, with no killer instinct, or defensive toughness. Goaltending that's been hit and miss. Secondary scoring that's been lacking. These aren't new conversations. That's the most frustrating part...these things have been discussed for years.

Same, kicking myself for that one because I had a feeling the Oilers were about to hit rock bottom.

 

A big shakeup is coming there, likely a coaching change.

Waiting for McDavid to ask for a trade.
