Leon had a 4 point last night, and could finish the season with more points than anybody since Lemieux in 95-96.

And he'll still be 30 points behind McDavid.

Playoffs are no big deal,
don't have a crap attack.
Is Mikko Rantanen the quietest good player in the league? I sort of forget he's in the league sometimes.

Willingly taking a pay cut to live in and play for Edmonton counts as at least -100 points so its about even actually.

They can both bite one. Nobody wanted them signed here in the first place and if they’re too weak to wear a badass jersey they can sit out the whole game for all we care.

drat Jordan has always been one of my favorite players. Unfortunate.

I'm glad Malkin doesn't give a gently caress and keeps wearing it. I hope that continues and he doesn't back out next year or whenever the Pens do one of these

Fortunately for you, it's just Eric and Marc refusing the jerseys. No clue if Jordan would/will do the same.

It's just so loving frustrating to have these assholes undermine this whole thing without consequence because the Panthers can't ice a full roster without them and their league minimum cap hit. It'd be great if they just got jettisoned for the random 4th line fringe prospects from the AHL with the same cap hit but they have *~experience~* so they aren't ever coming out of the lineup.

I can't believe this line in their statement: “After many thoughts, prayers and discussions we have chosen not to wear a pride jersey tonight." How is that not a parody? Insane.

Yeah I saw it was Eric and Marc but I'd be surprised if Jordan feels any differently if both of his brothers are that way. It'd rule if he was the cool one though.

Please do not entertain re-signing this player unless it's for a very team friendly deal. He's made of glass.

Who's the oldest goaltender who will be available this summer? Could $5M persuade Craig Anderson to go one more year? Could it lure Mike Smith back?

Brady, Trout, Curry. Yes.

Basketball has new guys emerge pretty often though and there’s always Lebron. He’s in China’s pocket but when he’s not doing that stuff he’s alright.

Soccer has all the Ronaldo vs Messi stuff. I don’t know anything about Messi but Ronaldo is definitely unlikeable, but not for being a black hole.

I would honestly take an rear end in a top hat with charisma over the boring robot. McDavid is so much better than anyone else currently playing the game but I couldnt care less because he is just about as entertaining as a warm bag of milk.

Also I thought Ohtani and Judge were bigger stars in baseball these days and both of them seem to at least know how to smile and do an interview well enough to keep people watching.
