Now in retrospect, a year later, we see what might be stirring in Calgary.

Johnny Goudreau, Tkachuk both wanted out ... cuz of Sutter's toxic coaching style. Tkachuk flourished and continues to, in FLA. Huberdeau sucked in Calgary... and even Kadri from a Cup winning team sucked. On paper, with their players, they should have been better.

That can't be right, cause that would mean a player like Nathan Gerbe is 5' 1, lol

Toronto played really well, except for 40 seconds

Bobrovsky was amazing

It was a great game, both teams are fun as hell. Florida is like the complete opposite of LA Kings. That was a brutal series to watch, as much as the Oilers are enjoyable.

I'm glad the 'dead puck' teams are gone, at least from what I've seen

NHL.come isn't that far off, lists him at 5'10" and 177lbs... but geez... you'd think you're that close to the big show like he is you'd put a bit more training effort in?

If you look at EP40. He is like string bean. Same with the Sedin twins. But they are super solid with their skates on and super fit.

lol, are you sure you're that tall?

Most of the time, I find people are not accurate about their own height. Reason I say this is because there have been people who are literally the same height as me, but when they give me a number of what they think they are, it's 2-3" taller than what I know I am.

Leafs are good as done ... do you see them winning 4 out of the next 5? Panthers are on a 5 game winning streak since down 3-1 with Boston!

True ... but this is the choke master Leafs. Boston (up to this year's playoff) is ... Boston.

I'm positive... but does it matter? Even if I was 5'9" that would mean Rathbone is 5'6" lol... if I'm standing next to him and the top of his head is at my eyebrows he's almost 3" shorter than me

What a stupid reporter. Samsonov is probably the reason the Leafs are in the second round. The dude plays well above his pay grade already. Bobrovsky makes 10 million a year compared to the tiny 1.8 million Samsonov makes. Why don't reporters ask the Leafs Top guns to raise their game instead.

^ Schitt's Creek was HUGE here in Canada, won lots of awards! The name of it shows the wittiness of the writers. Eugene Levy, I think.

Schitt's Creek was huge in the US too.

Dan Levy was the writer/creator, and also played the son. Eugene Levy is his dad, who played the dad on the show. Eugene Levy, along with the mom on the show Catherine O Hara, are both Canadian comedic icons.

Eugene Levy was the Dad in American Pie. Catherine O Hara best known to be the Mom in Home Alone.

It got awards in Canada, but never really caught on until it got on Netflix where it blew up in the US and swept the Emmy's for a few years.
