Gotta love how dumb NHL coaches are. Toronto is down 5-3 in a game they should be down 8-1. They have allowed endless 2:1s and breakaways on the second night of a b2b.

Refs swallow the whistle for a few minutes, a few questionable hits on both ends. Keefe then sends out Simmons, who on the face off trips Harkins from behind then cross checks him in the back of the head.
pp goal later and the game is pretty much over.

Hearing the Vancouver Canucks are very interested in Marc Bergevin for the now-open GM job



Spoiler:
george mcphee's name also out there, which makes way more sense (hey they already hired bruce), and would probably be way better than bergy anyway

might be the best realistic choice, assuming gmgm learned some lessons in vegas

Actually a bit looking forward to seeing if Bruce can work his reg season magic in Van. Not an easy job but fun to see. And if gmgm then thats not a bad combo. Bergy would also be fun to see =)

Maybe Boudreau can do something, anything to get EP40 back. Without that, nothing really matters

AV out in Philly too. That team's gonna blow it up in the not too distant future.

The Flyers have been the same garbage team for what feels like forever, have sprinkled some a couple of playoff appearances in there but they just give up way too many goals all the time, awful.

Zegras is an awesome player to watch. Slippery, good hands and vision, tries stuff and makes it looks easy. Too bad he's on the most boring franchise in the league

Yessss Zegras, was just watching star-eyed. With Drysdale and that McTavish kid they sure have pieces going forward.

They really aren’t at all right now the most boring franchise in the league. You’d much rather watch a Ducks game than a Canadiens game, a Senators game, a Kraken game, a Coyotes game, other teams as well.

True but there's a reason why I said franchise not team. Canadian teams can't be that low for me due to the sheer amount of people who care about them or in Ottawa's case the whole thing being a tire fire. Kraken still got the novelty factor too. Maybe I should've said anonymous franchise.

I'm fine with settling for bottom 5 tho

Quick ran hot and Kopitar drove the offense to start.
Plain truth is they are not talented. For all the hubbub over their drafting, no one has hit yet. Byfield is out injured. Vilardi is in the minors. The D is meh.
Kings are in the running for a Buffalo-level rebuild.
