That would fix it.

No clue what the ref thought on the Matthews body slam.  Unless he thought Matthews was pulling on McAvoy too. *shrug*

A couple of penalties should have been called. But Christ...what an awful goal to let in.  Samsonov looked good too.

Ullmark starting for Boston is an interesting choice. 

While I agree his right shot is likely why he is used, he looks lost and out of place out there.  The Bruins know they are telegraphing the PP through Matthews, and they were cheating as such.  Putting Bertuzzi in front not only screens Swayman, but it could open a few more possibilities like a...

The PP looks dynamic when Nylander is pencilled in.  Swap him out for Jarnkrok and it looks run-of-the-mill.  What an awful option and decision.  Park Bertuzzi's ass in front of the net instead. 

Nice to see an immediate response to a couple of the Capitals goals to create some distance again.  Good win. How Washington is on the cusp of a Wild Card spot is beyond me.  They stink.  Well, besides the fact that the East is awful after the top six teams.

Probably a good thing we haven't.

There's a difference between just burying guys in the minors, and stashing guys on LTIR for the regular season and having them miraculously return for Game 1 of the playoffs, no? Like I suggested, I applaud the Golden Knights for exposing the rule and using it to their advantage.  And I usually...

I'm unsure if I should applaud the Golden Knights for their creativity in circumventing the cap, or be pissed at the league for constantly allowing it.  Because I'm sure if there were some other teams *cough*Leafs*cough* who continually pulled this off, the league would step in and squash it.

I'm okay with the Leafs just having tinkered the last couple days.  They don't have the draft capital to burn, nor should they continue to do so with the structure of the team.  Let things play out this season, and re-evaluate in the summer.  It just sucks that yet another prime year of...

Why would Guentzel decide to re-sign with Pittsburgh?  They're a sinking ship.  He'll get enough offers from teams in much better positions to make it worth his while to forgo signing back there.

I can't believe Marner passed on taking the shot there.  That was a tied game.

Exactly. Hell no!

Unnecessary yet necessary trade, if that makes sense.  I don't hate the trade...don't love it either. I'd rather not see Treliving blow a 1st on some player nowhere worth it like we've seen the last few years.  And the draft capital of the team is severely compromised the next couple years, so...

Much harder than it needed to be, but they squeezed it out.  Nice pass by Marner there.

I'm really digging the Bertuzzi-Domi-Nylander line.  Keefe may have found a sweet spot there.

I wouldn't want the Leafs to either, but Henrique is posting far better numbers than what Foligno was. I think the trade (including Carrick) helps round out the forward group for Edmonton just nicely.

For the Leafs that'd be ugly and tough to fit in.  But for a team like the Capitals which is aging, set for a severe downswing, and pretty much only trying to stay afloat to get Ovechkin the goal record, I think it is a reasonable gamble for a team that'll have more than adequate cap space in...

Kerfoot got a video tribute.  Seriously...? LOL
