Laaksonen didn't play in game 2 but 7 total defensemen did.

Healthy scratch or injured/illness?

D Oskari Laaksonen is scratched for the Amerks. Not sure if he's injured or healthy.

I live in Florida, so it doesn't impact me so I don't have a dog in the fight.
I'm just saying wow to paying $550 per game AND having to pay PSL's which theoretically goes to paying for Pegula's portion of the Stadium.

Oh I agree. It’s nuts. The power of the nfl is insane. People pay to be in Cold and miserable weather that isn’t fun to be in

If Ullmark becomes available do you take him back?

A very cursory look shows the Bruins need to re-sign Bergeron and with the emergence of Swayman I wonder if the Minion is a cap casualty

Sure, conditional on them holding $2m for each of the next 3 years..oh, and the return is they take Bjork back...with a conditional 7th thrown in if Ulmark hits a SV% of 924 or higher.

Let them fvcking Rot in hell.

(Bourban) is kicking in I guess)

Didn't we have enough injury prone goalies that we were relying on in our lineup? Hey, what's one more?

I mean. He makes a completely unfounded claim that the Columbus GM is avoiding players from his own country because he hasn't drafted any in the first round, which is just absurd, so I linked him to a google search of Patrick Laine... You know, that Finish player that plays for Columbus, with a Sponge Bob mocking meme and the dude genuinely thinks I'm "trolling" (again, he doesn't seem to understand the definition of the word) and decides to throw shade. And he seriously wonders why so many people mob him on here.

And you just got to love the classic "you're a loser for posting on the same obscure hockey blog full of people just like you" insult... The blog he is known on for having regular 2 am meltdowns multiple times a week for the past 7 years.

But Professor DeMartino is 100% his spirit animal.

If Toronto loses this series I suspect that soft play by Nylander is going to be replayed in leafs fans minds all off-season. At least they can move him - they are stuck with pajama boy.

KA has been doing great. Has a plan and sticking to it. Seeing what young “new core” will be worth investing in and who will step up. We are seeing that already.

Tanking is done, but that doesn’t mean selling the farm again. I think he’s going to continue drafting, make smart signings with small trades or one big offload of who isn’t in our plans

Doesn’t happen often, but we totally agree

I think Boss was just being sarcastic at everyone calling for major moves to be made

Hank the truth is KA has to be extremely happy he didn't bite on a long term deal for Ullmark. He's probably let that ship sail and will now concentrate on bringing in a tender for a couple years. This will give him time to evaluate what he has in his stockpile of goalies. I'd find it hard to believe MAF isn't on the top of his list.
