The Fantastically Beautiful Joyously Superfun 22-23 Season Celebration Thread

And my god that's a massive advantage

Matt Murray with his methadone refilled can almost go shot for shot with Vasy imo.

 

[LeafOfFaith]

That's why he's there, but it sure is an expensive $5M contingency plan (seeing as to how you can't count on him to be healthy enough to start with any regularity).

"contingency plan"

He's plan A on the 1st day of the playoffs bud. Just gotta make sure he's got a rye or two in him to sort out the hangover and he's had a few minutes to fire a dart and he's good.

“Ryan O-postraphe Reilly” Bowen being relegated to radio for the last decade is the greatest crime of the 21st century.

 

[Hoss]

I love the "to the guy who finishes every check".

More of that please

At this point, that’s all I really view him as. I hope he’s back and fully healthy because neither of them are sure bets or anything, so both need to be healthy. But what I saw from him in a Leafs uni so far hasn’t exactly been too inspiring.

“Ryan O-postraphe Reilly” Bowen being relegated to radio for the last decade is the greatest crime of the 21st century.

I’m actually in London right now and I was in the car going to the airport during the first period and heard Joe call the action for the first time in over a decade and was chuckling out loud when I heard that.

 

[trujaysfan]

Washington may be a seller this year... would Sheary or Mantha (at 50%) be on interest. No idea what Shearys defensive metrics are like.

I’d love to know where the “cookie” moniker comes from.

 

[Preston]

He's addicted to oreo cookies

 

[hockeylover]

I’d love to know where the “cookie” moniker comes from.

ACCIARI: Yeah, I got that nickname in Florida. Oreos are my cookie of choice, and while I don't try to overdo it, I'd say I have four or five Oreos before a (pregame) nap, and then I have a great nap.

Ask and ye shall receive!

 

[mbow30]

They all have their pregame thing.

Acciari and oreos
Marner and skittles
Tucker and coffee-Coca cola mixer
Lupul and strippers + blow + talk radio

 

[Habsy]

Mathieu Schneider and Roy's wife...

Joey Anderson cleared waivers.

 

[LeafGm]

Weird. Our run of having seemingly everyone we put on waivers get claimed has come to an end this year.

Aube-Kubel got claimed, but anyone else we’ve waived has cleared.

 

[JackBurton]

I thought he'd be taken for sure

Sorry for posting crap heard on the radio, but this was from Mike Johnson,

I didn't catch the name but he mentioned that maybe the Islanders bail out.. and if so maybe *** is on the leafs radar. (I missed the name as I got a text read to me right at the time.)

But Coliacovo said something like... I like it... big long and lanky stick that can pop in some offense but is a steady dman.

My assumption could be Dobson? Mayfield is older but 6'5?

That's the only players I could see that explain that.

Likely Mayfield is my guess

 

[trujaysfan]

Mayfield as a target has been pumped a few times by the media.
