50% of Leafs games this season have gone to OT. 2nd highest mark in the modern era: last year's Kraken, 37.5%. I guess scoring & no D makes it so. Also - Connor McDavid is now on Canada's Walk of Fame... lols. We have a Walk of Fame? Is it in Toronto?

Also - Connor McDavid is now on Canada's Walk of Fame... lols. We have a Walk of Fame? Is it in Toronto? Circa 1998... 168 stars & counting. 13 designated blocks in Toronto, in front of Roy Thomson Hall, Princess of Wales Theatre, & Royal Alexandra Theatre... I've stumbled onto it once or twice, it doesn't really scream out if you're not paying attention, which is appropriate because Canada.

Only thing I can think is Sid declined for now.

Another OT for the Leafs, 12th in 25 games holding steady...
Tavares assists for his 1000th point at the Islanders with about 4 seconds left, only to lose in OT to the Isles. Was funny the league allowed the bench to empty to congratulate him in front of his loud booing NYI fans.

Craig Berube will now have the Blues, ironically.

Craig Berube will now have the Blues, ironically. Blues fans booed Jordan Kyrou all game on home ice, seemingly in response to his suggestion that he didn't much care for Berube (in fact, all he said was "no comment, he's not my coach anymore" when asked about their relationship). Kyrou put up an assist in a 4-2 win. Poor kid was in tears when asked about the boos afterwards. The whole team has been underperforming, pretty classless of Blues fans to single out one guy and boo him throughout the night.

Yeah, that's pretty shitty. Fans are stupid, but hopefully they see this and give him a standing ovation the next time they see him. These are still human beings, not automotons put on this earth for one's amusement.

These are still human beings, not automotons put on this earth for one's amusement. Seems he got cheered Sat night. What a juvenile escapade by the fans, it's not like guy got him fired & personally drove him to the airport. Strange. Toronto booed Larry Murphy out of town, but that was because Leafs fans wanted him to be as prolific here as he was with Mario & co. In other news, looks like father time has caught Ovechkin. Only 5 goals this year on an even 100 shots, 5%... last year's 42 goals on 14.3% of his shots. Alex is 38yrs old now, & still 67 goals behind Gretzky. I don't see it happening.

Ovechkin hasn't scored in 14 games and has 5 goals in 29 games, with 1 power play goal.
Scoring on 4.6% of his shots. His low was 10.5%.
He's not catching Gretzky this way.

And of course Ovy gets a power play game winner from his office.

Local boy Natey Mac with a 4 goal game, first player to do so since the team moved to Denver.

William Nylander re-ups with the Leafs, 8 years with much of it bonus money.

Yahoo fantasy now has player faces on roster lists. Looks a bit creepy, looks a bit stupid, looks entirely distracting & pointless.
Coincidentally this is begun days after their NFL fantasy year has concluded. I guess NHL is where they try silly gimmicks with lowest risk.
