GDT #5 - Tues. Apr. 30 7PM - Toronto Maple Leafs @ Boston Bruins - So You're Saying There's a Chance Team Zen Edition

Dude had something like 8 hits in game 2 if memory serves. Thats not someone afraid of the playoffs

Then again some of those "hits" aren't exactly epic. Think the same guy who counts SOG's is also counting the "hits"

I don't know. I'd sooner have someone (anyone) at 100% than a 50% Matthews. He's more of a lead anchor at that point and if he has to leave in the 1st then theres an empty spot.

I would take Matthews in a panic holding his severed cock in one hand, and a hockey stick in the other over a 100% Noah Gregor.

I was thinking McMann...your point on Gregor is very well taken

Nobody is afraid to hit. They're afraid to BE hit. See: Marner, Mitchell.

Also, presumably your son when he misses a free throw.

I keep telling you I don't have any kids.

And if I did have one he sure as hell wouldn't be playing a pantywaist pseudo-sport like basketball.

I dont believe you

Okay, i believe this.

There was no reason to not go straight tandem this series (as the Bruins, with two vastly superior goalies to ours did). Definitely no reason to game back to Sammy for game 2 after he got pumped in the opener. No reason to go back to him in game 4 after he repeatedly tried to hand the game over to Boston, etc.

So yeah, let the guy torpedo us in the series and decide to make a change only after it's very likely too late. Fuck you and your goalie, both of you can fuck off. Enjoy Pittsburgh cunt.

You might even go further back and argue there was no reason to be riding Samsonov almost every game to end the year basically grooming him to start no matter what, or even to give him the start in game 1. I can understand that decision to begin with him, fine, but yeah, after he got demolished, Woll should've been in for game 2, no doubt.

The part that is so fucked up about it is that Sammy is going to just be allowed to walk at the end of this season...so why the fuck aren't we rolling with Woll to see if he's a viable starter for next year. Okay, so Woll could've gotten killed in game 1 instead and then you go to Sammy. Or Woll maybe would've shut them out in game 1 and then you're rolling. They completely stunted and screwed with the more promising goalie who we actually have future plans for. Keefe was basically trying to get Sammy his $5M x 5 contract with this stupid move.

Yeah sure. We all know you'd take the severed cock and make a run for it.

Or soccer or baseball!!

 

[MindzEye]

Its truly bizarre that two top players (Nylander played all 82 games in the reg season) mysteriously fall apart at the start of the playoffs?

Is there anything mysterious about Matthews getting sick?

 

[WeHaveMoreCupsThanYou]

Or soccer or baseball!!

Fixed.

Baseball is a great sport. Granted it was better before the DH rule and before the rule about not being able to slide hard into a base were put into effect but it's still better than soccer or basketball.

 

[CH1]

Maybe not mysterious but extremely unlucky that both Nylander and Matthews "wake up with an issue" as soon as the post season starts.

I love how the goal posts move. This old man tough guy shit has always amused me from your generation. The biggest fucking crybabies I've ever met have the highest expectations of "manhood" from others.

Of course you hate the DH.

Yes....we don't even know if he is sick?

Not true at all.

The proper term is leafy.

Also congrats on the cannabis news

 

[WeHaveMoreCupsThanYou]

Of course you hate the DH.

I also hate that they lowered the pitching mound from 15" to 10" in 1969.

I do, however, like the pitch clock. Didn't think I would but I have to say I don't mind it.

 

[MyNameIsJonas]

Not true at all.

It is 100% absolutely true
