Hyman beats 4 out defenders with 2 right on top of him, embarassing

Are they just going to leave Henrik in there?

I live in Toronto. It’s so depressing. As much as I hate to admit it, I think the Leafs near-future is much brighter than the Flames.

That's what winning a lottery and hiring the best coach in the sport will do.

Ovi has 6 goals and it's only Saturday night. Man, what a start.

Don Cherry just called Travis Hamonic "Hamrlik" three times.

Flames have the talent. The Flames' creative players are suffocating under GG's system, as structured as it is. Look at the Leafs and the defense is flying out there, forechecking like crazy. Mike Babcock is having them play efficient yet flashy hockey, using what he has to his advantage.

Really hard not to be jealous of teams who crapped and/or lucked their way into these incredible players

4 periods into the season (1.6% of the way into the season), Ovechkin is already 12% of the way to 50 goals.

Kane has scored early for the Hawks. Some of these guys are putting up some big numbers this week.

edit: Hartman with his 5th assist in 2 games. Wow.

Islanders / Sabres features four shorthanded goals.

This sport is weird sometimes.

This Leafs team is just good. Sometimes they have legit meltdowns (like right now) but they put themselves in a position to have meltdowns and still get a point or two. There's almost never a game where you can say their offense didn't show up.

Rangers tie it. That's a shame.
