Yeah, he was released today from the hospital with a concussion and out indefinitely.

[Artemis]

The Leafs have to break the Montreal curse tonight so that they can move onto the next round against the Jets.

I'm going to refrain from commenting on hockey. Seems every time I do, I jinx the Leafs.

[Artemis]

Quelle surprise, Leafs lose AGAIN!

[Artemis]

Congrats Montreal!

Their keeper reminds me of Quick during 2012 and 2014, he's legit.

Oh shit...hadn't heard rip

[clickie]

One of the greatest to ever do it. Great guy and awesome goalie. Best the Hawks ever had, but came up short for the cup.
78 seems way too young to die in 2021

Fuuuck

Last night before the kings game kicked off a ref hit a player on the ice and was stretchered off...bad omen for the season I thought...our top pick from last year looked like he snapped his leg in the third...just came out today yup...broke it.. got put on IR.....hockey is back...weeeeeee

[Juana]

6 in a row for the Kings maybe they're starting to put it together after some down years

[kv]

Naw...we are fucked...so broke right now.. just teams sleeping on us more than anything

[Juana]

Yeah I'm aware but I think they can at least make a playoff run but that's just being an optimist I suppose.

[Juana]

7 in a row and Quick had a SO

[kv]

Watched em all...teams be sleeping on us because we are so hurt...but I doubt our good fortunes continue...you see last game quick gets hit side of neck by a leg...goes down like a rock shaking his hand like crazy full on stinger...never goes off the ice...crazy...and poor Alec Martinez got opened up by a skate last night... teeth flying 50 stitches...poor guy

I'm aware but I'm not having much fun watching Capt TO in the Purple and Gold so Kings it is but I do think the Kings are finding their place, they're likely going to have to play like early 2000s puck control type stuff.. and yeah Alec got ripped up.

[kv]

Byfield gets his first!

[Artemis]

RIP...Guy Lafleur, 70

That's 2 in a week- Mike Bossy gone too.

[kv]

[kv]
