I haven't, but I find the current standing surprising, and I wonder if any of you know what's up.
I haven’t been following but surprised the Stars ain’t doing better, then again it’s the Knights. The series is still young

I'd Keefe responsible for Pigman's for poisoning?
Over the Internet, you can pretend to be anyone or anything.

I'm amazed that so many people choose to be complete twats.

The leaves haven’t made it past the first round since 2004. How many in a row will it be for this group? Marner is getting ripped again on Twitter. He’s definitely no big game player that’s for sure.

Bieksa made a good point, the Leaves play a puck possession game all season but in post season everything tightens and turns into dump n chase forecheck game that the Leaves aren’t built for.

Hrudey just ripped Marner for his bench tantrums and for looking at the ref for calls. Just move on and play through it, FFS. The guy is precious.

They did make it past the first round last season for the first time since 2013.

But to your point, this core has been a colossal failure and they keep quadrupling down on the type of team build that has proven not to work. They still have one final year of Pajamas with a NMC as Willy starts on his $11.5M

Keefe will be shown the door, so should the Shanaplan. But for those outside the center of the universe, I hope they both get extended.

I hate to say it, but an interesting comparison to the Stevie Y Detroit era too.

They going to hire Quennville because... they likely can.

Much to Doyle’s surprise my patriotism has me cheering for the leaves. I fucking hate the Bruins
