LostAnotherOne Posted March 1, 2018 Report Posted March 1, 2018 Gotta vent. My boss screwed up on how many bereavement days i got last week and to make it up to me he said i could take today and Friday off. Sweet. So i got a chance to sit and relax and watch hockey central at noon and leafs lunch. Throw it on and no real hockey guys on the panel just regular hockey fans like us talking hockey. Might as well put one of us on there. I know im crying lol.

DRIFTER_016 Posted March 2, 2018 Author Report Posted March 2, 2018 (edited) This Pens/Bruins game is redonkulous!!!! 13 minutes into the game and its 4-2 Boston. 5-3 at the end of one. It's a real defensive and goal tending duel!!!! Edited March 2, 2018 by DRIFTER_016
grimsbylander Posted March 2, 2018 Report Posted March 2, 2018 I watched some of that game Drifter...it was a bit of a train wreck for Pittsburgh. They looked slow, lost puck battles and never got the bounces. Probably all due to the massive goal deficit.
Jds63 Posted March 2, 2018 Report Posted March 2, 2018 I watched the Bruins kick Penguins butt last night ... Boston looked mean and scrappy I am loving my Leafs this season but it made me think about their lack of toughness .... I am hoping i'm wrong ... and their raw talent will prevail but playoff hockey is whole different type of hockey and if they want to go deep into the playoffs I think they needed someone scrappier than Plekanec added to their lineup

Pigeontroller Posted March 5, 2018 Report Posted March 5, 2018 But when you come home, the Senators will still suck, and the Leafs will still be making the playoffs.... Remember when you used to be a fan? Too bad you jumped ship!
grimsbylander Posted March 5, 2018 Report Posted March 5, 2018 That second picture tells me there's still lots to remind him of the Senators.
