Islanders are now 0-8-3 in their last 11 games. Yikes.

Pretty funny that Lou and Bergevin were 2 of the 3 GM of the Year finalists last year.

I'm pretty sure seeing GM of the Year finalists (and even Jack Adams finalists) lose their jobs within a couple years after they earned that recognition isn't even that uncommon.

Oh, of course. It?s just funny that if Lou weren?t Lou, there?s a good chance that 2 of the 3 would be gone by early December of the next year, literally months later.
 
This is mostly triggered by last nights loss to the Jets, but it is obviously not a Leafs centric problem. Officiating like last night is just making it harder and harder to be an NHL fan. Leafs fan for life, but just tired of games getting out of hand physically with no calls, then soft impedance penalties get called one after the other.

With all the scandals befalling the league from concussions, to what happened to Kyle Beech, to the absolutely toxic culture hockey has fostered(as is reported, never got to play), to everything in between, I would really like to see some new league leadership and soon.
(fwiw, I get it's unlikely)

So why did they let go of Linus Ullmark again?

I'm not sure how much of that was the team's choice. If you were a goalie, would you want to stick around to play behind that "team"?
 
So at some point does Boston and the isles have to play 5 nights in a row while everyone else gets a week off?

I don?t understand how you can be this far into the season and be 6 games behind everyone else.

At least the Islanders have the excuse that a few of their games were postponed because of COVID. Boston's just had a ton of off days.
 
How many games will Ian Cole get for kneeing out Scheifele's knee? (where a major penalty was called on the play)

Based on the Pionk suspension . . . 1 game, because he got the misconduct.
