Can you imagine if we open the season tomorrow with no Jack, No Kyle and No Ryan..wow..

 

At least the Panthers tickets in a couple weeks might be cheaper. :wallbash:

 

I have a nice pair of center ice 100 level seats for the game tomorrow. It's been a long time since I was looking forward to an opener like this one. You could almost sense a crescendo building up around town as Thursday drew nearer. Feels like a funeral home today.

They really need to rename that injury. High ankle sprain sounds so tame, like something you recover from overnight. Maybe something like high ankle explosion or even just plain old death would be more appropriate given the response from the fans. It sucks in the short term, but we'll get plenty of hockey out of him for years to come. I'm most curious to see if Reinhart can further establish himself now.

 

As for Matthews, the way things go with so many rookies, I wouldn't be surprised if he wound up with about 15 goals all season. The road is always so bumpy for these teenagers.

Don't worry. They lost and that were the only goals scored for Leafs.

 

Now everybody on planet will get message to not take him lighty... Which Ottawa probably did @ first. Probably just didn't know how to play him, match against. Sens eventually won the game.

 

Let them have their day in the sun. One for the record books, hopefully it was an outlier game. I will worry for balance of the Sabres-Leafs rivalry if it happens more or if this wasn't just the first game. I mean, he is an elite player!

Be aware that the Habs are likely without star goalie Carey Price.

Wow... Still?

So you're saying that Matthews won't score 328 goals this year while the rest of the team scores 0?
