October game thread
- Thread starter The Napkin
- Start date
I know not every team can coordinate their jersey sponsor to fit their jersey, but there are five big banks in Canada, and the Habs choose one of the two whose logo actively clashes hard with their home sweaters (RBC).
Elsewhere, Warren Foegele and Kailer Yamamoto out, so Edmonton’s going with 17 skaters tonight.

The Oilers pregame hype video is set to Knights of Cydonia. I am excite.
Also, going back to royal blue and orange is the right choice.

Steve Dangle takes about 35 seconds in his season opening LFR video to move into full psychosis.
Sadly, we’ll have to wait more than two weeks until their home opener. My prop bet would be how short they fall of a sellout, with an O/U of 500 out of the ~4000 their borrowed arena seats.

You’re really sticking with that goal song, Tranna?

21-11 shot advantage to Toronto, 2-1 deficit where it counts. On the one hand, the Leafs have been EXTREMELY sloppy, and you’d bet on that correcting over time. OTOH, Murray and the now-pronounced-correctly Samsonov have been as advertised, and that’s bad.
This might be a bit of a hot take, but I don’t think this Washington Capitals team is good enough to make the playoffs.
Their goaltending is suspect, and Ovechkin looked old opening night against the Bruins.
They also don't have much forward depth. It's Ovi, Kuzy, and then....? Mantha? Sheary? I guess Tom Wilson but he's not expected back till at least December.
Carlson is obviously a stud on D. But this is a team definitley past its' peak.
Carlson is also not the same player defensively he was 3-4 years ago. Still great offensively but he's closer to a right-handed Krug than McAvoy these days.
Really really hate to see it for such a respectable franchise.

Leafs about to start their fifth power play of the night. They’re 0-4, 0 SOG.
They’re playing Arizona, FWIW.

So the Coyotes get a late PP (and goal) and the Leafs tying goal gets wiped out? This wouldn’t happen in Montreal.
tough loss for the leafs

The Leafs begin the year with 2 regulation losses to MTL and ARZ, the 32nd and 31st teams from a year ago.
Here’s the play in question:

Rielly clearly handled the puck. To me, the only question is if Keller touched it before Marner.
Naturally, Leafs Twitter is having a normal one about it.

I think it's a touch vs. possession issue. Keller may have touched it but didn't gain possession.
