  1. SmokeontheHorizon

    lmao who just got Hulk-shoved by Gio?

  2. OhDeerFren

    How is the CBC stream so bad that it keeps jumping to earlier games this year? It’s almost impressive

  3. StaticR0ute

    “Got lost” … oh because Holl was puck watching

  4. cbal41990

    O’Reilly has looked great same with Noel.

  5. Neighbourhoods_1

    just waiting for the Habs goal with a minute left

  6. Shooternow

    Do you guys think Bunting should be on the top line?

  7. Prometheus1866

    Woll and Holl, Rielly and o’reilly…these names are going to confuse the shit outta me.

  8. GrazedByMyMeatloaf

    I just now noticed Woll has a brick wall on his mask

  9. Level_Exercise_3939

    Not even ROR can save us man. Wow.

  10. inagartenofeden

    Local boy (to me) Jake Allen playing above his head again vs Leafs

  11. SMORKIN_LABBIT

    Hoffman out there with the oven mitts lol. I preferred those lengths too. Just tossing this out there because apparently ROR is still fucking with his gloves on the bench. Can we not get him his brand in the right color blue?

  12. sometimesalwaysnope

    How many chances do they give Engvall? Blowing the zone like a house leaguer.

  13. GrazedByMyMeatloaf

    Acciari is really throwing his body around

  14. StaticR0ute

    Suzuki would have a tough time not falling down in a brisk breeze

  15. Comprehensive_Bar913

    Lol disrespectful matthews is my favourite matthews

  16. johnnyd6

    Anyone else notice no RBC sponsor on the Habs jerseys? Do they only have that for home jerseys?

  17. Patrick Roy in net and and entire defense that is all Norris winners cloned

  18. GrazedByMyMeatloaf

    Matthews and smiling while being harassed by Habs players

  19. GopnikSmegmaBBQSauce

    Nylander already w 3 shots. He never has good value on the gambling websites for this, bookies know he’s good for it

  20. imjakedaniels

    Gimme THREE words to describe the Leafs 1st period.

  21. Neighbourhoods_1

    is there a single person who enjoys the SN/CBC intermissions?

  22. blacksewerdog

    In general not much heavy hitting anymore.When was last time by a leaf you heard what a check by ———-Then I watch a Boston game and boston finish every check and guys are crawling to get up.Leafs need some of that I think.Get pushed around to much

  23. loveashark

    welp that period went almost as leafy as it couldve been barring a flukey goal against

  24. nownowthethetalktalk

    This shouldn’t be anybody’s game.

  25. Spiritual-Zombie6815

    I know it’s terribly unsafe and not worth it, but damn the no visor look is so sickly old school

  26. CheckYourUnderwear

    I asked ChatGPT to write a poem about ROR:

    In Toronto’s icy rinks, a name is sung,
    A hero’s tale of valour, brav’ry and fun,
    Ryan O’Rielly, a hockey star supreme,
    A player whose artistry on ice doth gleam.

    With stick in hand, he dances and weaves,
    A graceful skater, a master of the leaves,
    With every stride, he brings fans to their feet,
    And with each goal, he makes victory complete.

    He brings to life the spirit of the game,
    A warrior’s heart, a thirst for fame,
    In every match, he gives his all,
    A fierce competitor who stands tall.

    With skill and speed, he creates a path,
    A leader who guides his team to the path,
    With every pass, he sets the stage,
    And every shot, his fans doth engage.

    He is a symbol of the Leafs’ pride,
    A beacon of hope, a star who won’t hide,
    And with each game, he etches his name,
    Into the hearts of those who love the game.

    So here’s to Ryan O’Rielly, Toronto’s knight,
    A warrior whose blade doth shine bright,
    May he continue to reign on the ice,
    And bring joy to those who find paradise

  27. glightningbolt

    No goals and no penalties. That period flew by.

  28. GrazedByMyMeatloaf

    I really am not a fan of the SN studio group

  29. StaticR0ute

    lol breaking news: guy touches pucks in warm-up
