I just finished watching the HBO miniseries John Adams last night. Thoroughly enjoyed it and would highly recommend it to anyone. Giamatti, Linney are great as the leads with a very strong supporting cast; especially Dillane and Wilkinson. Not to give anything away but I was particularly blown...

He hasn't been talked about much so far but Nylander has 5 points already

I get what you're saying Herman and it definitely makes sense. However the fact that there are many players who are not able to use the whole field (beyond Pillar and Pompey) speaks to the fact that it's perhaps not that simple to harness that mental side. Or even that there is an element of...

Agreed, as louis points out there is more an air of acceptance if they do lose. Because it's not realistic to believe that this team is ready to win now. Is it within the realm of possibility? Sure, but I think most realize it's highly unlikely. They're young, they're talented but they're also...

That's awesome [emoji1]

I like what you are all getting at re: small ball (despite my penchant for DINGERS!) But in terms of existing personnel I'm skeptical that Pillar and Pompey could suddenly improve and learn how to take a walk/make contact. It's not impossible but I wouldn't bet on it. Perhaps I'm being too hard...

But really I just want to see some DINGERS!

It'll be a long season if all that matters is wins and losses and points but I don't know how you can look at this young team and not be both excited and entertained. They may end up with way less points then say the 06-07 Leafs (basically pick any of those post lockout/9th place teams) but...

Marner HM Brown (tough choice for HM)

Apparently he and his wife are about to have another kid

Aw JVR you had to ruin the rookie scoring party...I suppose I can forgive you though.

I can get used to this

Matthews is in a slump, his goal pace is way down. Hopefully he can get back on track.

85, Kadri, Rielly 

The bullpen was absolutely dominant tonight. The O's didn't get a hit after the 6th and only one base runner. I just hope Osuna is okay.

What a way to end it especially after all those blown chances earlier. That ball was absolutely obliterated. Awesome stuff.

Well, there'll be at least one more game at Skydome this season

Haha I just saw that Team Europe beat Sweden. Good for them but the final series is going to be a complete joke. Not that Sweden had much of a chance either but still... I'm predicting Canada scores at least 10 goals in the two game sweep.
