Flyers are red hot (8-2), but that's come mostly vs a light sked, which gets much harder for them the rest of the wsy, starting with tonight's game.

And of course, the leafs are also one of the hottest teams in the league (6-2-2 in last 10, 12-3-3 in last 18).

Some great news on the injury front - Clarkson may be out with injury tonight!

It's funny Toronto media ties in Jake Gardiner, or even Morgan Reilly, to the "Schenn treatment" ... saying young defensemen might be dangled around as trade bait.

Fact is, Luke is nothing like Gardiner or Reilly.

Gardiner's been held back in icetime a bit, but he still leads the team in 5on5 average icetime. Reilly actually sees his icetime go up, and mistakes go down during the season.

Schenn, OTOH, sees his icetime dropped to 6th on the team, averaging only ~16 min a game.

We shall see the difference between Schenn and Gardiner / Reilly tonight. Schenn was eventually traded because of his limitations as a NHL player, Gardiner has to overcome mental cramps.
 
Schenn was traded because we got JVR for him.

If we could get a similarly impactful deal for the team Gardiner could be dealt too.

Rielly is be untouchable.
 
Nobody had responded and gut said Bozie even though I usually rock the one balled overlords jersey. My bozak one is signed and he had a stellar night last game. Hopefully it carries over. Anyone else going to the game tonight?
 
Every summer he would, until we were able to put him on LTIR. Same thing the Flyers are going through with Chris Pronger's contract.
 
By 10% only ... but, let's say for all intents and purposes, a retired / career-ended player's cap hit is of no consequence.

Wishful thinking though ;)


Anyways, back to tonight's game ... despite how we lost the 2-0 lead with 2 SH goals, the W over the Rangers was huge, because it put us back in 3rd in division, and ended our winless streak after the Olympics. This team plays a lot better, especially at home, after a W and pressure's off. Let's hope that is the case again tonight.

The flyers are red hot, mainly because of Giroux (and his line) ... Carlyle tried a Phaneuf - Gleason unit to shutdown the opponent's top line, but broke that up after the first period. It'll be interesting to see how he plays the Giroux line tonight.

Clarkson's no-go tonight, which is probably why McLaren was re-activated (still, I'd go with D'Amigo or Smith ahead of him ... unless he's thinking there might be fireworks against the big bad Flyers tonight)

Go leafs Go!!!
 
Objects in the mirror are closer than they appear?

I don't know how anyone could watch the NHL at all over the past 10 years and come to that conclusion. It's the exact opposite. It's more difficult than ever to make up points at the end of the year.

Stupid ****s.
