Was Scrivens as awful as the numbers imply, or was he hung out to dry?

 

bit of both

[havok24]

As expected, the Leafs are getting dominated.

This is so perfect. My fantasy hockey team is making it likelier that Nonis and Carlyle get the boot. Thank you Patty Hornqvist.

[GD]

Bernier doesn't have it tonight, pull him for tomorrow, just FUGLY!

 

Give Optimus Reim a chance to shine.

[havok24]

Kunitz?

 

Hornqvist. Great pick.

It doesn't really matter though does it? It's not like they're actually running things.

[GD]

Hornqvist. Great pick.

 

I love beating you because every time I try and claim some breakout Greenwood stud, you own him. So this is my revenge. <3

Bernier after the first game said he felt a bit of pain against the habs. if that's the case now, he should put the team first and let reimer have a shot. put the team before yourself.

Cherry cracks me up, that rant was for the ages!!

 

Turranah maple leafs!

[labadee]

wow both rushes on this pp were way offside..

[labadee]

just let kessel or phaneuf have a rip

[labadee]

fantastic sequence! LUPS!

[havok24]

They've woken up, hope it isn't too late. GO LEAFS GO!!

 

Still plenty of time left.

[havok24]

Wayne Simmonds is a monster.

[labadee]

play with some urgency, boys

[havok24]

Dirty shot by Malkin. Yeah this game is over.

ayyy

[labadee]

wow their top line has 17 shots on goal thus far

[burlingtonbandit]

f***in fans booing them now? They should've been booing after the first? The guy that threw his Jersey on the ice is a loser, they played a decent 40 minutes all things considered, they were flat in the first and were terrible then. Rangers tomorrow, Ruh-Roh...stand on your head Reimer.

 

Amazing what score effects do...

The Leafs winning is bad enough. Them torching Lundqvist and likely costing me the week in fantasy is pretty much unbearable.

Brutal. Just killed your GAA and Sv %.

I'm now likely going to lose both to a guy rolling with Ondrej Pavelec and Karri Ramo. Is baseball back yet?

[Abomination]

Ouch! That's a lot of empty seats (the first picture is from warmup, but the rest aren't).

Later, Garrioch tweeted that the official attendance was only at 7,311, the lowest in franchise history. What's worse is that the real number of people at the game was probably even smaller.

 

Luckily, you could probably count the people in the stands fairly quickly to get a more accurate number.

Yeah, yeah. Didn't link it for the article.

The Panthers crowds are only going to look worse as the season rolls on. They eliminated the comping of tickets so now there won't be any freebies inflating the attendance numbers. I wouldn't be surprised to see them average less than 10 000 for the season. I mean they got 11 000 for the home opener...

[burlingtonbandit]

The Panthers have an exciting up and coming young team, move them somewhere where people appreciate hockey!

 

If the team was in Detroit the last 10 years you probably would see crowds in the 12 000 range there and I wouldn't say Detroit is a bad hockey market. That much losing would have small crowds in 75% of the cities in the NHL. In 2003-2004 the Blackhawks and Penguins averaged 13,253 and 11,877 respectively. Those 2 cities would be considered 2 of the stronger hockey markets in the NHL south of the boarder.

 

That being said I think the Panthers should be moved to Toronto, Quebec City, Seattle or Kansas City.

Lundqvist having another rough night

[Dylan]

Phil the thrill!

 

Solid game all around for the leafs

[havok24]

The Leafs outshot the opposition 40-24 lol.
