I will only compare Toronto to Tampa Bay, once we get Andrei Vasilievskiy
- PatC80

There is no need to do any sort of direct comparison.

Its quite simple, the comparison is for people who cant seem to grasp that good teams/players can start the season poor only to put it all together.

You give good players the chance to make it right. And you give them minimum half a season.

Like my example above...TBL gets swept by CBJ, they start of the season very poor not even breaking .500 by Christmas, Point, Kucherov, Stamkos looking like fraction of themselves after monster seasons the past year. Looked very bleak in the eyes of fans that panic constantly. Point had a 40 goal-90 point season the year before, didnt eve break a PPG that season.

Did they trade anyone? nope. Did they win two cups after it? Yup.

So what happens at 42 games if they're under 500?

I love how all the premier beers in Ontario are actually beers for hobos in their home counties.

Heineken
Stella
Corona
Pabst

- Atomic Wedgie


Is Old Milwaukee still the ultimate american hobo beer?

I call those 'after the game beers' ..for when you just don't care.

It couldn't hurt. Well, maybe if he's more of a Moretti guy...

- PatC80

To be honest, he doesn't even buy Peroni or Moretti himself -- he usually buys a Kase of Canadian.

His real passion is wine (we make it together) and he loves this stuff:

You’d have to be drunk 1st to order it.
- Garnie


They couldn’t keep it in stock - no lie. The same faces in there drinking it daily until they got asked to leave. Agreed on the factor though.

I haven't watched the first one yet. Mostly b/c I promised myself I'd watch it while riding my bike in the basement. It's been a bad month for my waist Scabsy.

The people I see leaving the beer store with it look like they just crawled outta a drainage pipe.

So, his Kase di Birra is Molson Canadian... Geez.. Brutal.

On another note, wine is good.

Slow starts and playing well is one thing.. The Leafs have started slow and have not played well outside of the Rangers game..

Then they suck, Dubas and keefe may be fired.

But we are (counts on fingers.....) 36 games away from that.

I agree with you 100%.

But man oh man, if they lose tonight to Andersen, Leafs Nation is going to turn stupider than they have ever been stupid before.

Like, Stupiderer.

The level of panic will be sky-high.

- Atomic Wedgie

For me it's not the losing at all. I don't mind losing, the Ranger game was great (frank)ing hockey on both sides. One goalie slightly outplayed the other.

It's the games with the incredible lack of performance or push back from the Princess 3 Club.

I think most of the rest of the team has been playing really well.

It's an embarrassment that the team can't get poop out of Marner, Matthews and Capt John or Keefe for that matter.

$34M and a decent coach should get a team a lot more than the Leafs are currently giving us.

Yeah, he does not have an evolved taste for beer as he does in literally everything else.

Love me some wine and the home made stuff we make is actually pretty damn good. The cantina we built at my place is legit as is the process -- this isn't some mangiacake operation we've got going on here.

He also makes some grappa which is good but I definitely think puts hair on your chest.

Get on that bike buddy! I'm with you, been trying to lose weight for 3 months, only down 7 so far!

You'll love the series, even with the ending. It's nicely made.
