    I don't care who started it. It's a stupid trend. Bush league as hell, like they can't afford two sets of helmets

    What works for football doesn't necessarily work for hockey

     

    Why does it not "work" for hockey? 

    I cannot understand this overwhelming desire to maintain the status quo of quite possibly the most boring uniform in all of professional sports - the NHL road.

  2. I like the look. Glad they did something unique for the trip and wouldn't mind more teams doing it, as long as colours are dissimilar (i.e. not during Toronto v Tampa).

    Surprised that the Canes (and Kings 3rd) are the only teams who go coloured helmet w/ white.

  3. It's entirely possible that a player doesn't have a wrong jersey.

     

    As a neutral with no "favourite" NFL team, I see Manning as a Colt and a Bronco. He performed well in both cities.

     

    If he went to, say, Tennessee for a season and stunk up the place a la Favre, then you may have a point about him being in a wrong jersey.

  4. Shanny is higher up the totem pole, so he'd better learn to. Shanahan, Dubas and Hunter are steering the ship. There may be some sort of mentoring aspect between Lamoriello and Dubas, who is being groomed for the GM position. Lou is here to make trade calls and buy razors in bulk.

    The Leafs drafted, signed, and traded players without a GM. This is Lou's swan song.

    How I see it, and how I hope it plays out.

  5. It's been reported Graeme Roustan will be bidding for a team to fill his arena in Markham.

    Going to be a pricey venture paying off MLSE.

    Oh yeah, the Toronto team that's going to play out West.

    It would be a thing of sublime beauty for the Western Conference teams to vote to reject Markham on the grounds that it's too much of a travel burden.

    If the money's straight....

    From a business/money-making standpoint a second team in Toronto is a no brainer.

  6. Don't worry so much about your rating.

    Liking used to be visible to everyone. Underneath the post there used to be a little box showing who exactly liked the post, but that function seems to have been taken out. Don't know why, I liked it. Now, you only get a personal notification when someone has liked your post.
