Isn't that just normal Sedin-line minutes + PK? I'm not okay with it but better him than Megna.

I really, really, really like that someone made Willie play Boeser. No way he made that decision himself. Maybe they promised to let him go quietly in the off season if he just iced some young'uns a bit more. Or maybe they'll hire him as skate sharpener when his contract runs out

I don't think a goalie's going to win but excellent chance that no one breaks 100 pts and very good chance no forward except McDavid hits 90, no forward hits 50, etc., and that's usually the kind of thing that helps a non-forward win. I also think Burns for Hart is dead given both him and the Sharks cooling off.

I'd be pretty surprised if McDavid doesn't win it.

Desjardin's been pretty consistent with giving younger players low ice time at the beginning and slowly ramping it up so nothing really surprising, there. Boucher at least got second unit PP time today so that's a positive. Boucher and Boeser looked fine, Goldobin looked a little lost positionally.

ha ha Rask is out tonight so the Bruins are definitely going to lose, and probably miss the playoffs again this year

Also, regarding Hart Chat: barring a huge surge by Marchand, Kane, or Burns - it'll go to Crosby or McDavid. There are some other top 10 scoring guys who I don't think will get votes for stupid reasons (Backstrom, Kucherov, and Scheifele) so I'm not even going to count them. I don't think Bobrovsky will get it even though he's having a really good year. He's probably got the Vezina locked up though.

McDavid has more assists so he should win the Hart because that makes him a better team player.

Crosby has hacked the fingertips off of more opposing players so he should win the Hart because that makes his team's opponents worse.

Their wingers the past two months, and most of the season have, almost exclusively, been horrid with them. I can understand them not giving a poo poo when it seems Willie is content to have no loving clue.

He hasn't really racked up secondary assists. He has 38 Primary Assists to 23 Secondary, which is a healthy ratio. He's first in primary assists and 5th in secondary assists.

But yeah, secondary assists has always been a dumb argument.

Yeah and I think Sid was consistently #1 in primary assists too but all people ever bitched about was the secondaries. Thing is when you get a ton of assists because you own you tend to get a lot of both kinds.

So postgame Mike Babcock says that it was the Sabres team doctor that requested Andersen be pulled, presumably due to concussion protocol. The Leafs team doctor didn't travel with them on this trip, which seems incredibly stupid, and so the Leafs couldn't give Andersen his baseline test and he had to stay out.

That seems kinda sketchy, I mean I'd hope someone isn't loving around with concussion protocol for on-ice reasons but agree it's real dumb of the leafs not to have their own guy there to check it out.
