NHL SEASON

[TpaEnforcement]

The Leafs have win 15 games, out of 17 up to date. Man only if the Leafs, can make this kinda run in the playoffs. That would be so nice, I believe, they can do it this year. They are only growing as a team, for the last 3 to 5 years. The more times they keep on , making playoffs the better they will get. I believe this is the year, they will finish up the season. In top 5 teams , this is the year they are going to pass the first round. All the times they have in the pass, they are going all in to make it far this seasonin the playoffs. GO LEAFS GO.

I am having a hard time watching now. The corona/no crowds thing killed it for me. Maybe if I dont watch they will finally win.

 

[alabos]

the leafs can win every year......lot of talent there.......they had just focus to pass the first round and after tey will be extremely dangerous.......for my part go avs go

 

[TpaEnforcement]

Well I can't wait until the season continues, with the cases are rising. Now there probably won't be and fans in the stands, but as long as I can watch it on TV I am down with it. I really hope this season, is the season that they make it past first round.

 

[cdntyler87]

Yup this is the year they make it through the first round! What a huge accomplishment that would be for the TML fan base!! Better use Matthews while he’s there he won’t be resigning

I was looking forward to watching some Olympic hockey, not so much now.I just hope they dont cancel the NHL games.

I have given up on watching hockey, I will not put up with this utter BS about the mass psychosis of turning the common cold and flu into some "fear porn" planned demic, I have had it with these overpaid clowns and the 'elite' team owners.

And lest you think "oh so what, who cares about you?", I could ice skate before I could walk, I grew up in the cold and snow with rinks in everyone's back yard, hockey has always been my greatest joy to watch, but I've had it with them and with ALL sports. They can shove it for all I care... it has become nothing but a brainwashing and conditioning program for the unthinking masses.

I'm sure the families of the people who have died from your "fear porn" would disagree about your armchair diagnosis. Not trying to convince you otherwise as that opinion seems deeply rooted in online clickbait and unwavering disbelief in proven science. However, to the actual topic, I don't get to watch hockey as much as I used to, just busy with kids and life. I also could ice skate (I had to learn to walk first, not a natural talent) very early and loved pond or backyard games. Unfortunately for the OP, i'm a LA Kings fan (barely above 50% this year, so not gonna be all "go kings, go!") even in the down years. GL leafs if they go deep!

Oh, and yes, as to the winter olympics, yes! Although, i pretty much only watch the hockey.

 

[namvidnee]

I'm rooting for Washington! Intense struggle. Let's see what will happen next!

Every year it is a roller coaster for us Leaf fans. So much talent last 5 years or so and some really good runs - until playoffs, then heartbreak. But looking better then ever this season but will Covid deal Leaf fans another twist that leads to disappointment once again?

Glad to see our Bruins guy Brad Marchand speaking out about the idiocy and the hypocrisy.

“The NHL and NHLPA can change the rules of the cba to add a taxi squad so that they don’t miss any games and don’t lose any money… which has already been agreed upon that the players will pay back in escrow until the owners are made whole from what they have lost during this pandemic, regardless of how many games are missed… Yet they can’t do a taxi squad during The Olympics so they can honor the agreement they made so the NHL players can go [to the Olympics],” wrote Marchand. “Please tell me that’s not [baloney].

(Marchand obviously did not use "baloney" in his tweet.)

“And for all of you who want to pipe back about forfeiting pay while being gone… yah not a problem,” Marchand added. “Let the players make their choice.”

I don't care about Olympic hockey, that never really interested me, but they sure have destroyed the regular NHL season with this BS and fear mongering over what is basically the common cold. Name one player or coach who has been hospitalized with sickness... you can't name a single person. Heck, name one player who has actually gotten sick... its nothing but faked positive tests, in order to brainwash the public that there is a "pandemic" happening... it is complete BS and I speak out because I will not put up with it any longer, people MUST wake up and stop participating in this mass psychosis. For me, this means I will not watch NHL hockey which will hurt them where it counts, in their wallet. I wish more would join me in my boycott to teach these clowns a real lesson... but I know most won't and will eagerly watch when it returns.

Everybody loves to sing that national anthem at hockey games... the ending line is: HOME OF THE BRAVE... how about showing it then, you cowards? Take off the stupid masks and STOP PARTICIPATING.

While I actually do think it's fantastic that you personally have not been affected in any way by Covid, that's great for you. However, your personal opinion doesn't really matter in the face of what's actually going on. I personally (I work all over in IT) know 9 people who have died from Covid. I personally now know 22 people from all over the world (8 in the USA) that have permanent side effects from your "common cold" which has never been seen before this pandemic. I will grant you that the effects may not be permanent, but at least so far, the (2) rhythmic heart failings, (3) greatly decreased liver functions, (8) lung dysfunctions, (5) kidneys failing and only coming back about 50-60%, (3) over 14 months of still no sense of taste; ALL of these have lasted over 8 months, where most of them have lasted over 12 months. Even if they don't end up lasting forever, I sure as hell never heard of anyone before getting anything like this from a "common cold" or even a cold *lasting* 8 to 12 months. So, maybe take advantage of this internet thing you use daily and make friends outside of your city/religion/political party/country etc. and find out from actual people how they feel and have been affected. I live in a small town in the USA and damn near everyone around here thought just like you, talked just like you. I introduced them via zoom/skype/facetime in public meetings to people all around the world and most changed their tunes when they saw the suffering and sorrow personally. It's a lot harder to hold onto that hate (unless one is a sociopath of course) when you see real people with real consequences. Don't continue to hide behind ridiculous conspiracy theories or a silly opinion that the entire world fell under a spell just to inconvenience you , just talk and look for yourself, all the news nowadays is slanted to generate fcuking clicks and views, just because you have it good, doesn't mean others living elsewhere have it the same.

Be BRAVE yourself and stop letting wherever you're getting your warped delusions from scare you so badly that you lash out and call others cowards for wanting to actually help others. Unless you really don't care about anyone but yourself, hell, you could BE a sociopath for all I know. I just don't assume that because you post like one, that you actually are one.

If you've been impacted personally, then I'm sorry for that, it certainly brings me no pleasure to hear such things.

But I simply see this as an attempted takeover or subversion of humanity's freedom and our ability to control our own destiny as we each see fit to do so.

If people want to wear masks, then fine - but don't tell me I have to do so, just so you feel "safe" and/or "comfortable". And likewise, if you feel comfortable accepting some mystery injection just because you believe it will protect you, then fine, be my guest... but don't tell me I have to do likewise just so you can feel "safe" and/or "comfortable" to be around me.

I know my opinions and my words are controversial and may cause some upset, again that is not my intent nor my hope, but I understand the reality we are dealing with in these times, people have been scared out of their wits by the mainstream media's relentless assault, and I certainly don't blame people if they choose to believe all that stuff. But I don't believe them, and I don't believe our mis-leaders have our best interest at heart. Plain and simple as that. We agree to disagree, and thus, there is always going to be conflict in these matters. I'm far from being alone in my viewpoints, as I'm sure people must know. Yes we may be in the minority about choosing freedom and liberty over fear... but what else are we supposed to do, willingly become slaves to a system we disagree vehemently with?

Hope that helps, it probably won't, but please understand it is nothing personal against anyone who makes a difference choice or decision. Our problem is, there is no "middle ground" in this hot-button issue we are facing as a species... and I truly believe that is by design... "divide and conquer", essentially.

I wish I could just get back to watching hockey, which was always my love, but this has ruined it for me. I will miss it, but nobody ever said having principles would be easy or comfortable. Thanks for taking the time to respond, and thanks for your calm and reasoned reply. I wish I could just tell you "I agree", but I just cannot, and yes it does make me sad that it has come to this point. It is tragic, no matter what any of us believe about what is happening and why. There are no winners in the end, we're all going to end up the losers.

Anyone sick of the fact we can’t watch a Canadian home game yet? This is crazy list the world juniors today too… when will this nonsense end
