    I follow Taylor Hall...he played junior hockey here...It was fun going to the WFCU centre and watch him play, his last year in Windsor you could tell he was ready, he was just dominate, and a tough hockey player.

    Your leafs are off to an impressive start...good to see them doing well...hopefully all Canadian teams make the playoffs.

    i don't think their record reflects how they are really playing ... no team atop the nhl standings should have the worst PK in the league ... they've been REALLY lucky early this year ... i think when all is said and done ... they will be clawing for that 8th spot with a bunch of teams ...
    i agree with the pk comment, the leafs struggled killing off powerplayers by the jackets last night, but they did manage the kill off the 4 powerplays with luck and scrivens.

    At least they're headed in the right direction...maybe they can correct the PK woes!!!

    I'm impressed with Edmonton and Chicago...a year after Chicago turned over so many players they look to be real good again.

    sid the kid comes back tonite ... clearly, the best player in the nhl ...

    watching ovechkin these days makes you realize that the best player in hockey isn't going to be the one who scores the most goals and gets the most points ... it's the guy who plays the best in a system and makes his teammates that much better ...

    Crosby with an awesome goal minutes ago. Welcome back Sid! Read his lips after that goal: "Fuck Yeah".

    Agreed. I'm supposed to hate him because I'm a Rangers fan, but that was a fantastic performance.

    I get hear my fair share of whiners being in the Detroit market. The resident hockey guy on their sports radio show just whines about Crosby when the Wings are playing Pittsburgh...it all stems from Pittsburgh beating them in the cup final and Crosby not shaking hands after the series right on cue. To just hear this guy Is so funny...

    Wouldn't surprise me if Crosby stays healthy that he challenges for the scoring title.

    Although we will have to put up with the endless crying and whining of Sidney Crosby once again, I'm pleased to see that the worst mustache this side of Mike Ricci has returned triumphantly.

    Caps fired Boudreau ... hired Dale Hunter

    http://ca.sports.yahoo.com/nhl/blog/puc ... hl-wp18408

    horrible move i think ... can't win with a bunch of individuals ... i guess the team first approach didn't fly with the CAPS ...

    Carolina fired Mauriced...replaced by Muller.

    I doubt the Caps will ever win with Ovechkin...he's plan and simple selfish...he isn't even in the same league as Crosby.
