Yeah, we wouldn't have seen this Tkachuk in Calgary this year if he had stayed. The change of situation was huge for him. Going to Florida with Bennett there was probably perfect for him.

He was still young. He just needed time to grow into the comfort level required to play his style of play in the playoffs. Power forwards are a different breed... unless you're blessed with the size of Eric Lindros, it just takes longer to develop than other forward styles.

It took Iggy 5-6 years before he was a beast too.

His game is maturing, true.

And then make it worse by fighting the same player again for nothing but selfish reasons.

It's not just chucky either. Bennett is playing a huge role for this panthers team especially in playoffs.

Our 26 year old 4th overall center and our 25 year old 6th over all winger are tearing it up on another team. Meanwhile we've gotten older, missed the playoffs and refused to try and reset our core.


This organization really stink to be a fan of sometimes, they don't seem to do much right.

Bennett is getting major minutes in Florida. First unit PP, always out there with the extra man. He's still taking dumb penalties, but hes producing enough to offset them.

what I see is chuck getting big minutes and it's paying off, i think Sutter is stuck in the past, balanced ice complete teamplay is not what's winning anymore it's star players with alot of time to make the big impact and then cycle the rest of the players.

19 minutes for Bennett and 20 for Tkachuk and they had 1 pp and 4 pk.

At least Maurice plays his stars and doesn’t just roll lines.

Great to see those guys doing so well

First penalty on Bennett was a dumb call. It was pretty much for body checking. Those first two penalties were not the standard for the rest of the game, and certainly they weren’t looking like they wanted to call anything on the Leafs.

Late high stick is one the refs miss if O’Reilly has a visor

And my god, no. I saw this suggestion earlier in the thread. Penalties shouldn’t carry over from game to game.


Anyways, Florida was flying. Full marks for the win

And Bob did goalie the Leafs a bit. Wow, he was tracking developing plays, anticipating shots, and getting into position really well. What a game

Flames seem to scout talent just fine.

Apparently Maurice was trolling the refs in the end lol




NSFW!







Penalties were 5-1 for Toronto.

Watching Tkachuk puts me in such a deep depression, I cried all night. I’m over Johnny. Chucky stings.

Only logical next move is to not play Wolf and he leaves to turn into the next Giguere
