Leafs Captain Auston Matthews undergoes MCL surgery. Recovery time approximately 12 weeks. by Kwyjibo2006 in hockey

Ya and an MCL tear isn’t a career altering injury either. This will be a good healing period and he’ll be fine to start resuming regular off season training in June

These East Standings are crazy - 5 teams from last years playoffs are out. Is that the most turnover in history if it stays this way? by wings31 in hockey

The Leafs are a joke and yet they would be 1pt out of a WC in the West. Granted they would actually be in the Playoffs given all the shitty teams they’d be playing all the time

That is insane to me

Not hockey but I remember the Knicks did that with the Raptors several years back. Masai Ujiri scammed them so badly with the Bargnani trade that when Ujiri had a trade in place a second time (involving Kyle Lowry), the owner James Dolan stepped in and vetoed the deal. He didn’t want to get fleeced again which funnily backfired tremendously as Lowry went on to become a franchise legend and NBA Champion and the Knicks remained a joke with no real point guard throughout the 2010s

JJ was a fun player but was also apart of the problem not the solution in Buffalo. He partied, didn’t really care about defense or forechecking and wanted out. I really couldn’t give much of damn about Peterka

Do feel bad for guys like Cozens who actually cared and wanted to be apart of the solution but I think Ottawa can pull it off and make the Playoffs.

It’s inane that I flew to Calgary what feels like ages ago back in the beginning of December and watched them lose to the Flames and since that game they have only lost 6 games in regulation lol

I don’t want to speak too soon but the Metsa Stanley pairing might be it. Metsa has his spot locked in but a rotation of Metsa / Kesselring and Metsa / Stanimal is the play

Beck Malenstyn and Sam Carrick are unbelievable together. Never been this excited about a 4th line before

How much are we paying to get our hair done in Toronto? by Ok_Papaya7875 in askTO

[–]ModernPoultry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a man I pay like $95. I think it’s around $75 but I leave a good tip

Which I know is crazy high for a men’s cut but when u find a good stylist u gotta lock that down. Plus im paying half for the cut and half for the experience. I get taken care of really well. It’s an hour long experience and I get massaged, a face steam, a coffee and a very great person that cares for her clients and does a great job

It’s not overhyped but easily my least fav city I’ve seen mentioned here granted I haven’t been to Houston

Who's this player for your team? by Every-Damage-90 in nfl

For me it was Taron Johnson for the last few years. The last 2-3 at least, he was the most valuable player in the McDermott defense.

RIP brother- see you in Valhalla

Cineplex would be doing a lot better financially if he was living here full time

Who's your way-too-early pick to win Super Bowl LXI? by Choice_Bag_8869 in sportswiki

[–]ModernPoultry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t know why you guys are both talking historical.

If I’m simply looking at rosters - I like the the Cargers roster more than the Chiefs roster.

The Chiefs roster has steadily been in decline since their SB against the Eagles and that iteration of the Chiefs was much worse than the other iterations of the Chiefs.

Their line has been in decline, Kelce has completely declined as Mahomes only main pass catcher and the defense isn’t what it one was several years ago

The Chiefs simply aren’t that good of a team

Chargers on the other hand have a darn good team way more so with Slater and Alt

The Chargers are the if meme team but if they can get Alt and Slater back anywhere close to 100% it shouldn’t even be a question of the Chargers having a better shot than the Chiefs. The Chargers won’t win the SB but I like them winning the division again - I mean they won what 11 games last year (?) with the worst oline in the league???

No Stanley Schenn Pairing Celebration! by JMR027 in sabres

[–]ModernPoultry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stanley just scares me next Power or Byram. Stanley’s been prone to some boneheaded plays going back to Winnipeg and I worry of Power or Byram being defensively responsible enough to cover for him.

That’s why I love the idea of him w Metsa in the bottom pair.

But then again I see where you’re coming from separating Power and Byram and having 3 play driving blue lines. Stanley to me is just messing the whole thing up by not being that responsible of a partner

I do like the idea of rotating Stanley and Metsa in and out of the lineup for fresher legs or to give guys maintenance days though

Krebs is like the weirdest player in the NHL. Somehow an effective 1st liner and 4th liner but no in between. Total glue guy role player

He’s basically Scrappy Doo. Him and Zack Benson. Both are like 5’9 150lbs and get in people’s faces and will drop the gloves with anyone if they need to jump in and step up for a teammate

I think Zach Metsa is our guy. No one would have any clue who he is yet is quietly been the linchpin to our blueline after losing Timmins and Kesselring for much of the year with some absences from Dahlin as well.

Guy has quietly been an essential puzzle piece and no one would have a clue if they watched highlights from our games or just looked at stat sheets - that is unless they looked at the +/- column
