Team Canada and Team USA both undefeated heading to the quarter finals in the world juniors .

Team USA only 4 goals against so far. Canada just 7. If things transpire for the expected final, it has the potential to be a real classic!

I’m thinking Edmonton is going to win the pacific this year .

Yep, I like them too. Nice coaching and goalie upgrades. Expecting LA to be up there as well.

Knights don't have a lot of options. 19 year old rookie Logan Thompson may have to be given a shot at stepping into the starter role. Brossoit had off-season surgery and is a question mark.

Leafs fans have been waiting along time that’s for sure .

55 years with no end in sight. All last season the Leaf fans I know were saying "Don't get your hopes up, they're a good regular season team, but they're not built right for the playoffs."

I find history interesting, so had to look this up.

Sawchuck and Bower won the shared Vezina in the 1964-65 season. The Maple Leafs lost in the Semifinals to the Canadiens in 6 games that year.

Neither man won the Vezina in 1966-67, but they did win the Cup in 6 games vs the Canadiens. Bower went 2-0, while Sawchuck went 2-2 including the series clincher game 6 which saw a 3-1 final score, including an empty net goal by Toronto.

Thanks for looking it up and clarifying hotcross!

Terry Sawchuk gets voted best Leafs goalie all time in a good number of fan polls. Johnny Bower is usually up there too. I think both were on the 1967 team that last won the Cup for Toronto, and if memory serves they shared the Vezina that year. Also had Jacques Plante for a while, who I believe crafted and wore the first goalie mask. Mike Palmateer had a decent run. They also had Cujo for a bit.

Good job by the Jets signing Dubois . 👍

[Checkerboard]

Jets signed Dubois to a one year, $6,000,000 after last season's 81 game, 60 point season.

School boy math says that means an NHL point is worth a $100,000.

Mangiapane signed with the Flames and avoids arbitration. Three years 17.4 million.

24 players in arbitration this year.

Salary arbitration starts today. Most guys usually sign before it gets that far .
