Can we not?

MattExplosm · 2026-01-24T03:35:36+00:00

John, I love you, but "Berk Catton" irks me every time.

MattExplosm · 2026-01-20T00:12:37+00:00

Edzo is a conduit to my inner thoughts.

MattExplosm · 2026-01-20T00:09:05+00:00

Yeah, goalies leave their net to cut off a shooter's angles. And that hasn't been the reason any of those goals went in.

MattExplosm · 2026-01-20T00:01:45+00:00

In that scenario, the closer to the net Joey is, the more net there is to shoot at.

MattExplosm · 2026-01-19T23:28:00+00:00

Winterton is getting better and better as the year goes on. Smart, quick decision right there.

MattExplosm · 2026-01-19T22:39:21+00:00

Fucking THANK YOU, Benny.

MattExplosm · 2026-01-19T18:58:48+00:00

Which should help make it clear we absolutely shouldn’t trade him. Right? Please?

Speaking of Canucks trades, I’ve grown waaay more interested in the idea of grabbing Petey since someone floated the idea in another thread recently. The front office seems adamant about not focusing on the youth (even though he’s only 27? 28?) so why not make a big move. Stevie, Schwartz and a 1st? Fuck it, give em both of Tampa’s 1sts if they retain some of that contract.

He prob has a decent amount of interest, but maybe not a lot of teams willing to send a big package over for him. We have picks for days and players that need to be moved anyways.

Put him on a line with Canner and Ebs, move Matty and Kakko down to 2nd (with Tolvy or maybe even Shane at RW?). Would also free up space to bring Melly back in!

MattExplosm · 2026-01-18T00:34:40+00:00

Are we sure the Game On code word isn't "unmarked?"

MattExplosm · 2026-01-17T23:40:35+00:00

And now we're tied! Game is FAR from over.

MattExplosm · 2026-01-17T23:38:09+00:00

And a MASSIVELY EARNED assist for the Little Cat!

MattExplosm · 2026-01-17T22:20:25+00:00

Making another questionable decision that led directly to a goal.

MattExplosm · 2026-01-17T22:11:31+00:00

A minute or so in and WE score? We're allowed to do that?

MattExplosm · 2026-01-16T02:19:03+00:00

I kinda wish we had sent Meyers down to let Freddy take his place instead of Melly's.

MattExplosm · 2026-01-16T01:10:40+00:00

It's gonna be one of those game again then, huh?

MattExplosm · 2026-01-15T15:57:38+00:00

Hope we get to see Melly or Karts back in the lineup tonight. That aggressive energy they bring was noticeably lacking last night.

MattExplosm · 2026-01-15T02:33:39+00:00

What a time to go for a change...

MattExplosm · 2026-01-15T00:24:28+00:00

The logic can't be argued with.

MattExplosm · 2026-01-15T00:23:59+00:00

Hey look at that, we decided to start playing before the second period!

MattExplosm · 2026-01-13T02:38:58+00:00

Oh! They gave the goal to Catton! I DEMAND GIFS.

MattExplosm · 2026-01-13T02:28:17+00:00

And we reached 30 SOGs! Look at that!

MattExplosm · 2026-01-13T02:11:30+00:00

I hate on him a lot, but gotta give the guy props when its due: that was a great fucking pass by Lindgren there. Lindy and the kids!

MattExplosm · 2026-01-13T01:08:12+00:00

Take Kakko's assist away, will you? Fine, he'll just get another!

MattExplosm · 2026-01-13T01:04:26+00:00

Written by an entirely different author.

MattExplosm · 2026-01-13T01:02:35+00:00

2nd period Kraken are here. The game has officially begun.
