You know what, I take back what I said earlier.

I still think Torts is a jerk but I saw the last shift isolated, it was okay I guess until the end, gave up battling for the puck and then a lazy skate off.

Fair call benching him.

But I still think they should trade him asap.

Yeah, they need to trade him soon. He's going to kill their season.

Seeing that makes me second guess his value.

This is just stupid. There is an all Canadian matchup on TV but I am only allowed to watch the Kings/Avalanche. Who wants to watch that??

I think the NHL could have really benefited by bringing back new and old fans while people are at home. They could have really milked this All-Canadian division but they blew it. Very short term thinking.

Here's his last shift of the game. The last few seconds are pretty bad. Might as well just sit him and keep him away from the team if he's going to pull that.

Laughable game again from the Habs and Canucks. Sloppy, lazy hockey. Hope this isn't the norm this season as we are seeing it often.

MacKinnon scored on the power play in the last minute of the first period, 2-0 now.

The Habs are basically spamming the poke check button. Can't stop taking stick infractions.

Looked like no one was passing to him, or am I missing something? Not a good situation for him or the team either way!

6 million a year for another 3 years after this one, for a number 5-6 defenceman.

The funny thing is that despite all the young guys filling in in the Canucks lineup, Tyler Myers is clearly the worst player on the ice.

Yeah some of that shift isn't terrible, but the last part is. Totally giving up battling for the puck and then just a lazy skate back to the bench. Doesn't look good at all. Very toxic situation all around.

A healthy Anderson is a pretty valuable asset. Wish the Flames could've somehow snagged him.

As I type that they score again 9 seconds later lol.
