HYPE! LGRW!

Thanks for the laugh guys. I watched Tavares in the post game interview. He was asked about the Islanders fans, he said he expected it, and it didn't seem to bother him. Athletes are some of the most mentally tough people in society. Guys who are wusses don't make it that far. They play in front of tens of thousands of people, and are told they "suck" every game. Yes, it was the Toronto fans and media who made a big deal out of it. I think the only thing that got hurt was Toronto media and fans feelings.

My favorite pic of 'Terrible Ted'...Mocking the Leaf fans at MLG by taking aim, and shooting

To be fair, as far as I know JT himself didnt complain about anything, its more so the TO media that are blowing this up.

They fear us Get this W boys. END THEM

Yeah the problem is Johnny played good Islander up until the moment he signed with the Leafs. I legitimately believe the Isles thought he was most likely going to re-sign. Hence why he wasn't traded. And John may very well have wanted to re-sign up until the final days, I keep hearing that it was his agent is the one who pushed hard for him to join the Leafs. But in the end he sat on the fence, and the Isles lost something for nothing. He shoulda made up his mind at the TDL IMO

At least his last name was Lindsay and not his first name. I'm looking at you Madison! Seriously tho, his tombstone should read: Robert Blake Theodore Lindsay July 29, 1925 - March 4th, 2019 He was Class

But, but, they were so mean to little Johnny. Those bully Islander fans were calling him names and making fun of his jammy-jams. He is such a sensitive little boy, what if they hurt his little feelings? What if he developed PTSD from this? Thats why we had to give him a standing ovation. At a meaningless game. When he accomplished nothing. Or did nothing of note. Other than being taunted. By rival fans. In another building. Because what he had been thru was so awful, we had to applaud him. To give him a safe place. To make him feel loved. Because his pride was crushed. And his feelings were hurt. And he is so sensitive and thin-skinned. It might have traumatized him for the rest of the season. We had to baby him. To protect and mother him. It was the only way to take his boo-boos away.

RIP to the legend. LGW!

LGRW!!

Cool move by the habs

He was class

Damn

RIP Legend

I used to see Ted around Detroit Skating Club all the time growing up playing. He always proved that he was more than a great player, but a great human more so. He was always so gracious and friendly with everyone; he loved the game and he loved the fans. Sad day for the hockey world.

You're Grandpa Joe! RIP Ted Lindsay

I know old thread, but I think Ottawa's demise is hilarious and worth documenting. I had to type it all just to get my head around it. 2017 playoffs - The Senators lose in game 7 of the eastern conference final. They have a young team just entering their prime and after the deep playoff push the future looks bright in Ottawa. Since that time: Bryan Murray dies Melynk threatens to move the team Melynk tells reporter Brent Wallace "I will bury you" after being questioned about withholding bonuses from employees Assistant GM Randy Lee is accused of and pleads guilty to sexually assaulting a male shuttle bus driver Randy Lee steps down and months pass before another AGM is hired Mike Hoffman's girlfriend allegedly goes on a cyber campaign of harassment towards Erik Karlsson and his wife Hoffman is traded to the Sharks to keep Hoffman out of the eastern conference The Sharks immediately flip Hoffman to the eastern conference and get a better return By dumping Mikael Boedker on the Sens in the first Hoffman trade, the Sharks have now freed up enough space to chase a certain Swedish Dman Arguably the most talented player Ottawa has ever had, Erik Karlsson, is put on the trade block Budding young player Kyle Turris is traded away because Melynk does not want to pay him 2019 1st round pick is traded away for one year of Matt Duchene Fans start paying for billboards to get #MelynkOut In disgrace Daniel Alfredsson steps down from the Senators front office (his second time walking out on the Sens) Alfredsson tells the media he hopes a new owner will take over the team soon Melynk proceeds to fire his CEO Melynk names himself CEO Tragically, Erik Karlsson's first son is stillborn Craig Anderson asks for a trade The team can no longer afford to pay for ushers in the third deck of the stadium, and simply goes without them Team decides to hold a media event, but bans recording devices and cameras from the event, promises made to not trade Karlsson Erik Karlsson is traded to the Sharks Karlsson tells media that he believes he would have been traded anyway, even if he had signed the Sens offer Karlsson cold shoulders Melynk on his way out of town and does not thank him Team refuses season ticket refunds after Karlsson trade Season ticket sales drop by 4,000 Clarke MacArthur is forced to retire due to concussion symptoms Dion Phaneuf is traded, but he is currently still the 2nd highest paid Dman on the Sens roster due to retained salary Cody Ceci has booze fueled party at his home and a woman gets set on fire and severely burned Hidden Uber camera catches multiple Sens players roasting their coaching staff Keith Tkachuk publicly announces he wants Mark Stone signed so that he can keep helping his son Brady Mark Stone is traded Duchene is traded Dzingel is traded Duchene and Stone tell the media they received fair offers from Ottawa, but did not want to sign them Stone signs new deal with Vegas about 30 minutes after the trade is announced stating he likes the owners commitment to winning Video of Melynk surfaces in which he says he had been planning to trade Stone for a long time GM Dorion states the Stone trade was his proudest moment as GM At this point, 7 of the Sens top 10 scorers from the 2017 ECF run have been traded away GM Dorion states the team will keep Boucher on as coach and reassess in the summer 24 hours later Boucher is fired Melynk sues former lebreton co-developer for 750 million, is counter-sued for 1 billion Doug MacLean and Brian Burke roast Melynk and Dorion publicly on sportsnet There is no god in Ottawa, only chaos. This fact should bode well for our lottery chances...
