I think you missed the part where I said I'm not a Habs fan. Anyways, if you look back throughout the seasons Montreal has a weird knack of playing spoiler in the playoffs. I was looking for a few examples, there were a bunch that were less epic but they have been spoiler more then once in the last 10 years. They aren't taking the division spots from Toronto or Boston, that first round matchup is pretty much set in stone, so may as well get ready for it. But for Montreal to take the second wildcard spot and face Tampa in the first round (As I had predicted, not Washington) they would have to beat out Carolina who they are 3 points up on and Buffalo / Philly who they are 8 points up on. Its not as cut and dry as out west where 6 of the 8 playoff spots are already determined and a team that is barely .500 will make the last spot, but if I were a betting man, I'd say that Montreal will get one of the two wildcard spots.

So nothing like 2010 when Montreal did just that against Washington right?

Maybe that's why at some of the dive restaurants I go to along lake Erie they always give me Pike when they advertise it as 'Pickeral' on the menu. ?

They'll lose to the Habs in the first round. (And I'm not a Habs fan) You heard it here first!

My co-workers hate me because I say anything other then Sander Vitreus is just a nickname. Some pretty cool info there.

The only one that I saw that has Super Dogs is the Sportsman show. I'm going to that one because the wife will come to watch the dogs which means I can stay longer and spend more money.

We're. Fixed that for you. But nice try.

Zzzzzzz........ You're either a Sens fan or a troll to come on a FISHING FORUM, name yourself about a hockey team you hate, and make 2 posts. (Is that you Matt? Musky fisher by day, throw on the mask and troll by night) If you are a Sens fan there is nothing to talk about. The Sens have done no better and are about to give Jack Huges on a silver platter to Colorado this year. The Sens have: 1 presidents trophy 1 Wales Trophy 1 Norris Trophy oh oh and: 0 Stanley cup trophies. Read that last one a couple more times. 0. Because without that trophy, none of the others really matter and are just participation awards.

As much as I'd like to hang that one on the Sens sadly it happens all around the league. My buddy and I checked a few years ago if we could make a leafs road trip to Columbus happen (We want to see every team in the NHL eventually play a home game) Same deal. The worst seats were $100 (this was 5 or so years ago). Where as a few days later you could get lower bowl for under $50. Buffalo prices their tickets by Tier (Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum) depending on who they are playing. Guess who is at the top of all of that? The big thing that gets me for that is explain to me again why the Leafs can't spend over the cap when they are clearly providing added revenue for these teams that otherwise would be struggling. Lets implement a soft cap with a luxury tax. It doesn't make the league fair? Tough! Life isn't fair.

Oh man. So jealous. What a great haul!

Jesus. How does anyone survive up there? Is that a dog sled behind you?

Wow! What a monster. If that’s not advertising for the best lure to use on simcoe I don’t know what is. ?

OH! The Marleau contract becomes a lot easier to move to teams that have to reach the cap floor but don't have the cash. There may be a deal yet out there.

No way Gardner can stay. When they signed Musin it pretty much sealed the deal. Right now Toronto has $14 million available for next year. Even if Marner takes 9 they aren’t going to spend the other 5 just on Gardner.

It won’t last long. Next CBA the NHLPA is going to lose garenteed money. So signing bonuses will come with less money. Be interesting to see if no garenteed money means it also gets taken off the cap when a player is injured.

Lmao. I hate to say it because I really don’t like what he did this year, but he is starting to get his legs back under him. The problem was (and he is an idiot for doing this) he was half a season behind everyone else, finally got warmed off then was off for 9 days with the all star break and bye week. If he gets back to form by the playoffs i’d Be happy but also surprised. I think we won’t get our monies worth until 2019-2020

The mentioned on 590 in the city, Toronto is going to keep the best players. So Nylander probably isn’t moving. Kapanen and Johnson are Probnaly between 2 and 3 million for 2-3 years each. They guys you mentioned are Probnaly gone. All this means is unless Dubas gets a really good deal he is Probnaly done trading this season. No big moves at the trade deadline.

For 5 years I was hoping he would make a little less then $11.6. I expected that more for an 8 year deal. But that is why they are the experts and not me. If Marner signs for 5 years does that mean he will sign for around $10? Also time to cue up MuskyMatt saying it was a bad deal and that Matthews is going to post a pic of him in his Arizona Cyotes pajamas in 5 years when he leaves.

What a game by the leafs. Another big game by Muzzin.

Ice fishing....... that's the sport that people with healthy, functioning knees do during the winter correct? ........ Actually my knee isn't terrible now. Walking around mostly healthy. Doing my physio 2-3 times a day. Main reason why I haven't gotten out on the ice since surgery is I can't really sit for more then 20-30 minutes without everything getting sore and stiff. I figure I'll get out once for my overnight on Nippising in a month then maybe once more on my Laker Lake but that will be it for the year. I sure hope the whitefish are as feisty next year as they have been this year and last.

Wow. Nice whitefish.

Jesus. I wish whatever team was wearing the leafs jearseys in the second period showed up to every game.

First one though he left his feet. Gotta be careful with that stuff.

Oh man. What a monster!

Right eye dominant left handed here. No wonder I can't shoot straight.
