Game Notes

CGY
?Vladar(2-0-0, 2.94 GAA, .891 Sv%) will likely start for the Flames
?Calgary played in Montreal last night, losing 4-2 to the Canadiens with Markstrom in net
?Calgary's top line has gotten off to a great start this season, Lindholm and Gaudreau both have 14 points in 13 games while Tkachuk is closely behind at 11 points

TOR
?Campbell (7-3-1, 1.90 GAA, .936 Sv%) will likely start for the Leafs
?Tavares missed Wednesdays game with a lower body injury but isn't expected to miss a lot of time, so he could return tonight or tomorrow
?Joseph Woll is expected to make his NHL debut in this back to back set. My guess would be he'll face a tired Buffalo team tomorrow night but we'll see

Tavares seems set to return, Campbell starts.

Vladar in goal for CGY.  Never heard of him but sounds like a Supervillain.

GO LEAFS GO!

Yes. This is concerning.

Time to get Thor's hammer out of the closet for this game.

Darth Vladar, I mean if he's not using Darth Vadar on his mask somewhere he's already doing it wrong.

This is the correct take.

After every goal that is scored on him in his career, he has to look up at the sky and scream "NOOOOOOO!!!!!!!"

Unfortunately that's a pretty quick way to get a call from Disney's lawyers.

This got me looking into Star Wars-y names in hockeydb and how much of a bummer is it that this guy never made it to the show:

100% his parents knew what they were doing.

Being a big sw nerd I tried to sneak in a name for my daughter - wanted to call her Leah (I would have pronounced it Leia). But my wife had none of it.

We did name our dog Chewie though. And that was my daughter?s idea.

ALL MUST KNEEL BEFORE THE SUPREME VLADAR.

Hopefully he has a sister named Princess.

I got my sister to name my niece Leia. She already wanted to name her Leah, but wanted to make sure no one pronounced it Lee-ah.

How about calling him by his right name?

I mean, people figured out the same principle applied to Leafs Legend? Karel Pilar, who by the way was arguably the awesomest being, human or otherwise, ever to suit up in the Blue and  White.

Let's be serious for a minute, Pilar just rocks!

Matthews' defensive commitment is really good to see.
