Not sure how this one will play out, but it's probably the biggest game of the year for Canuck fans.

 

[pmrules]

CTB.....there has got to be a mistake....Daniel sedin leads in PIMs???? LOL.

Go after that 7mill thug Orr! 

 

[Beowulf]

Yeah I did a double take at that as well. Also, Henrik is 3rd on the Nucks with 14 PIM and is actually beating Daniel in minors taken 7-6. Both are among the league leaders in that category. Daniel already has more PIM than he did all of last season.

Kinda odd.

I figured that would get pointed out. It looks like after setting up the game-winning overtime goal in a game against St. Louis he and David Backes got into a bit of a scrum and started throwing punches with their gloves on. Both of them got 2 minute minor penalties and a 10 minute game misconduct.

 

[Bullfrog]

So glad to see Kulemin back. I hope Clarkson gets going so too. The two of them add good depth to the forward lines.

 

[moon111]

Kulemin's return is very welcome with Bozak out.

 

[applecheeks]

It is a big game for Canuck fans, they really dislike the Leafs and their fans and often read the same going back the other way. I had two phone calls with bets that (they, those, the canucks) would mop the floor with (us, our team, the leafs) and slap (us, our team, the leafs) silly.
I believe (we'll, the leafs, our team) will keep it close and it will be a good test before our five day "get it together period".  Looking forward to collecting my winnings after (we, they, the leafs) sweep the west. I beleaf, goLeafsgo.
I like my team.

 

[maplesyrup]

Hard to believe this will only be the 4th game I'll actually be able to watch. I think I've already missed as many games as I did the whole of last year. Anyway, as always, go Leafs go!

[LittleHockeyFan]

now that I know he's staying, I'm gonna have to do a RiellyBear

 

[losveratos]

I live in Vancouver when I'm not working in China.

For the love of James Tiberius Kirk.... win and wipe the douche off my neighbours faces tonight. (Tomorrow Morning for me)

 

[Redleaf]

Practice line on Friday....

Drop McClement to the 4th line Centre spot (Smith sits)
Drop Bozak into the 3rd line Centre spot (when healthy)
Move Lupul up to LW on 2nd line
And you've got a real decent lineup.

Move Lupul up to LW on 2nd line (and Raymond down to 3rd)

And you've got a real decent looking lineup.

Leafs become a 'big' team after this win.

 

[Heroic Shrimp]

I don't like sitting on a loss for 6 days before the next game, so, you know, win please.

 

[Bender]

I don't like sitting for 6 days, period!
