[GT] Maple Leafs @ Flames. Nakladal's NHL Debut

[sureLoss]

Should be an interesting game

Leafs trade their captain.

Flames scratch 2/3rds of their top line.

Go Flames Go.

Let's go Jakub! GFG!

The real loser of today's events = Matt Stajan.

Wel, then he'd drop to the second line and get less time, so it's a choice between that and playing top line minutes with the guys he's played with lately.

TSN just showed Stamkos after showing Lamorillo and Shanahan during the Leafs/Flames intro. He's never played for either team.

Is that tampering some how? I love a good a tampering charge.

Watching the game in our new home theatre. Nothing like sitting 10 feet from a 106" screen to highlight how crappy the sportsnet/shaw HD quality is.

Let's go Flames! Blow the Leafs out!

Compare that lineup to the lineup we rolled exactly two seasons ago:

Bouma
Backlund
Byron
Cammy
Colborne ("rookie")
Galiardi
Hudler
Jones
McGrattan
Monahan (rookie)
Stajan
Stempniak

Gio
Brodie
Butler
Russell
Smid
Wideman

Berra

[Monahan For Mayor]

Bold prediction that Bennett has a 4 point night, and looks absolutely dominate.

They also said that Toronto made cap room to make moves, when actually they have less cap room now and next season. I just call it bad reporting.

Seriously though, they should be fined for making such obvious hints.

Everything is going to look bad that close to a 106" display. Backup a few more feet! /nerdmode

Nah. Watched lots of Netflix and a couple Blu Ray movies so far and they look awesome. In fact, the commercials look pretty decent. But the game itself looks like a pile of ####.

This game's going to end 8-7 or something.

Who's going to score the goals?

I think it ends 1-0 in a shootout.

[Badgers Nose]

one chance to make the dion trade worth it and stajan flubs it

[Monahan For Mayor]

Nice try Engelland.
