Hurricanes @ Leafs - Feb. 25th, 7:30pm - SNO, TSN 1050

[Kin]

Well, if they have to win a game or two ideally you want them to beat a team that's chasing Pittsburgh.

 

[CarltonTheBear]

Nice pass off the boards from Gardiner too.

 

[ZBBM]

I'm going to miss Parenteau.  I like his fire and he seems to get the most out of his skillset.

Agreed. If we cleared out some bodies at forward I wouldn't mind trying to re-sign him on July 1st.

I'd have absolutely no problem with signing him to a one year deal again.

 

[CarltonTheBear]

Seriously, like Eric Staal is such a POS. Jordan has how many pounds on Kadri, and Eric jumps in to help his baby brother?

Also, clean hit boys. Grow up.

 

[ZBBM]

He showed it again that sequence, got pasted then got back into the play and took Eric out of the scrum.

Yeah CTB & Nik, if the Leafs want a veteran forward to mentor the new guys next season, he'd be great IMO.

 

[brothert]

agreed on the staal comment. 3rd man in and all that. based on size its a 4 v 1 advantage.

Anyone else scream in horror when PAP took that hit along the boards?

If Edmonton is sitting Purcell, perhaps it's time to wrap PAP in bubble wrap and prepare him to be shipped.

Scream? No. Hold my breath for a second? Maybe . . .

 

[GhostofPotvin29]

The end of this game was painful.

 

[CarltonTheBear]

Leafs finally pass Edmonton in points. But don't worry the Oilers are playing tonight so maybe they'll pick up some poi... hahahahaha

 

[CarltonTheBear]

Babcock really leaned on the Marincin-Rielly pairing tonight. Here's the defence's ice-time:

Rielly 28:48
Marincin 25:13
Gardiner 22:14
Corrado 16:41
Percy 14:04
Loov 9:11

Surprised that Percy played that much more than Loov.

That's a career high for Rielly too. In fact the last 3 games comprise 3 of his 4 highest totals there.

 

[Kin]

By the way, did anyone catch what was said about the pronunciation of Loov's name? It sounded like they were just pronouncing it as you might read it. 

 

[CarltonTheBear]

By the way, did anyone catch what was said about the pronunciation of Loov's name? It sounded like they were just pronouncing it as you might read it. 

Yeah, some people think it's pronounced Love for some reason. They just said that it's technically spelt L??v and pronounced like you would think.

I didn't scream, but in my head I was like "Ohhhhhh crap!"  Glad he turned out to be fine!

When you spell it properly as in Swedish it looks like a couple of freak out faces between the L and the v.

 

[herman]

According to Loov, it's pronounced 'love' in Swedish and it means Leaf.

But Anglicized, Viktor asked that it be pronounced Louv (Lamoreillov).

 

[Highlander]

I wonder if he has ever been to the Louvre?
