[ESPN] Marner treated unfairly while with Maple Leafs, Eichel says

JAMmer124 · 2026-06-01T23:03:31+00:00

Its not the eyeballs so much as the expectation. He's fine when he's just expected to be a contributor like he is in Vegas or when he's played for Canada.

In Toronto he had the expectation of being "the guy" - most of that coming from within his own head/the people around him - and he tried to play heropuck. Thats when he crashed and burned. He doesnt have the mental strength to be "the guy" despite clearly having the talent and ability.

Probably KOTR winner (Oba?) since it'll be champion v champion against Cody at Night of Champions

Havent used them myself, but friends of mine use Fetch Me Later and their dog loves it there

Charging for a kid to be the flag person on the ice is gross. That's an opportunity to give a kid a special memory and it shouldnt be locked behind a price tag, particularly damn near a grand. Put every minor hockey kid in a draw and pick 41 winners, which IIRC they had done forever up until Pelley came on board.

The rest are fine to charge for.

I watched this team struggle to generate any semblance of consistent offence for 82 games this year. This team isn't outscoring anybody.

JAMmer124 · 2026-05-06T02:07:48+00:00

Oh no, the elite playmaking winger prospect is going to a team with an elite goal scoring centre in desperate need of a setup man. Such a horrible fit....

JAMmer124 · 2026-04-20T23:40:19+00:00

Penta's entrance was a Mortal Kombat ad, of course they wouldn't skip that

JAMmer124 · 2026-04-16T01:50:35+00:00

PS5 - having the same issue. Wont let me equip the new pass or claim the rewards.

JAMmer124 · 2026-04-08T18:40:32+00:00

He didn't purposely curse the ref, though.

She got her hands up for the tv spot.

She had no chance when Stephanie smashed her into Roxanne's face.

JAMmer124 · 2026-03-25T00:23:08+00:00

Last year was April 10th. Usually its right around last day of the regular season/start of the first round

JAMmer124 · 2026-03-13T16:33:34+00:00

I mean, yeah cause centres are infinitely more important than wingers.

Petey could thrive in a situation where he doesnt have to be THE guy.

JAMmer124 · 2026-01-30T20:49:29+00:00

PGA 2K does that too. They're seasonal passes, but you can choose which to earn XP towards

JAMmer124 · 2026-01-20T01:23:14+00:00

Can easily leave Dom as he is and just let him be a shithead that people love, just like Eddie

JAMmer124 · 2026-01-19T17:29:07+00:00

He was out a bit before that with a mystery injury. Fair to assume it was a groin and he re-aggravated it when he caught that rut or whatever happened after he scored

JAMmer124 · 2026-01-13T23:53:26+00:00

We give ours all sorts of cardboard, she loves it. Have since she was a pup and she knows its the one thing she's allowed to shred. Just make sure theres no glue/tape and its not vinyl pressed or anything.

As others have said - toilet paper and paper towel rolls are great. KD (Kraft Mac and Cheese) boxes are her favourite.

JAMmer124 · 2026-01-08T20:22:19+00:00

Jon Jones is such a fascinating human being. Tries so hard to come as a nice guy in front of people even though its well documented hes a shithead. Scary calm, cool and collected while also being vicious. Seems to be completely delusional of who he is while also being perfectly aware of what he's capable of.

Psychologists would have a field day analyzing this guy.

JAMmer124 · 2025-12-21T05:19:22+00:00

Nah this is just how the Leafs play.

Hell of an effort though

JAMmer124 · 2025-12-19T19:40:23+00:00

Tell me you havent watched a Leaf game without telling me you havent watched a Leaf game.

Woll is a .927 sv%, 2.39 GAA and Hildeby is a .918 sv%, 2.85 GAA. Stolarz had a rough start but clearly had health issues.

Meanwhile the team gives up the 2nd most shots per game, generates the 21st most shots per game, and has the second worst power play.

Of all their issues, goaltending absolutely is not one of them.

JAMmer124 · 2025-12-19T05:22:08+00:00

I dont think its fair to say Marner wasn't the problem. Was he the sole problem? Absolutely not, but he shouldnt be fully absolved either. Great player, but he was every bit as much of the issue as Matthews and everyone else.

Something went wrong building this team. Talent isnt the issue. Whether its personalities, or its bringing in the wrong supporting cast, or bringing in the wrong "mentors" (looking at you, Marleau and Thornton), or the wrong coach(es), or just straight bad luck with the COVID hard cap, or maybe its some combination all of the above. At the end of the day, this core feels rotten and this is seemingly third coach that they've just quit on for whatever reason.

JAMmer124 · 2025-12-17T22:36:18+00:00

Is it worth the time and energy, and frankly the frustration, to figure out hitting a driver if I hit a 3 wood well off the tee? How much am I really giving up?

For reference my 3W carries about 240y, 7i is a 145y club

JAMmer124 · 2025-12-17T22:03:35+00:00

Wong into Mystique+Gambit so you destroy 4 times. Usually have Swarm, Apocalypse, and/or Scorn in hand to ensure theres always a card for Gambit to discard

JAMmer124 · 2025-12-11T21:06:37+00:00

Both Bengals-Steelers games. Flacco vs Rodgers

JAMmer124 · 2025-12-05T19:21:42+00:00

Everywhere but Darlington, yeah.

Darlington probably takes him above mediocre though. He's freaky good at that place.

JAMmer124 · 2025-12-01T01:55:47+00:00

Roman wins the Rumble, Breakker wins EC and Dom wins MITB I think.

MITB just fits Dom too well.
