So if the hit wasn't malicious and you know it, why fight? I get making him answer the bell if you think he had any intent, but it was an accident.

And then Simmonds trying later to fight Perry? C'mon.

HEY ! START LIKING THE CODE AGAIN OR KYLE DUBAS SENILE GRANDMA WILL GETCHA !

Pathetic.

Is that Sun related to any of the rags Rupert Murdoch owns?

Fucking classless.

That is C.S. Lewis, not me.

Well, this doesn't sound all that good (hopefully just a maintenance day for Campbell).

There was a picture that reuters released last night of tavares face and it legit looked like he was in a car accident

Hockey can be so great and so stupid often on the same night.

The more I think about the paper using the picture of the collision and not the pic of the Byron goal, the more irrationally angry I get.

Good on Dubas for calling out the Toronto Sun for that terribly insensitive cover and caption. I'd even go one step further and ban all Toronto Sun reporters from the Leafs dressing room.

I guess everybody is basically banned due to COVID-19, how about not allowing anyone from the Toronto Sun to be included in pre or post-game pressers?

That cover was brutal.

They do a better job of just throwing a fuck ton of shade at them instead. Matthews called out Simmons after he put out there that he tested positive for Covid last summer and Dubas likewise gave him one word answers for a while.

This is such good news. Hopefully his diagnosis helps the team concentrate on the ice.

He did bum his knee a little bit.

I must admit, I was worried when none of the updates said anything specific about his neck or the feeling in his legs.

Huge relief.

WTF is going on with Price? He keeps looking like he's caught between playing deep / retreating to the post first across the crease and just flailing across the crease with no regard to where his post is behind him. I'm not used to seeing him look like he's just winging it.
