The Hockey Gal was a nice touch to the power rankings and I think you just need to ignore the negative comments. The true fans will support you two ❤

[@bradgerthoffer2803]

I thought it was really cool seeing her in the power rankings video. Gave vibes of like wheel of fortune but better cause its hockey.

[@johnalwell5795]

People really criticized your wife being in a video, that's horrible and sad .She's great on All your videos .

[@FHL-Devils]

Yeah, that definitely sounds like a shadow-ban worthy offense. Those people just contribute nothing to the process.

[@AreYouKittenMeRtNow]

I LOVED that Yvonne was in the video!! People should put a cork in it, JFC. Starting my own channel really opened my eyes to how entitled commenters can be … demanding, out of touch, and rude!

[@hpshovecraft]

Shoutouts to Yvonne for all her hard work behind the scenes!

[@tonykung8756]

Well, they shipped a boatload of money to Lindholm and Zadorov. The Bruins knew what they were getting when they made the move: Lindholm's a strong 2-way centre but maybe won't rack up Bergeron points, and Zadorov's a #4 dman where if you play him too much or too high he's prone to mental mistakes...

[@JohannesJanssen4]

No problem whatsoever with Mrs.THG being in the videos! And if she's in the video and doesn't speak, I think that legally you get to pay her less... (That's a joke!😂)

[@Mayor_Of_Eureka17]

Tandem Power Rankings. I'm pro that.

[@chrisg1556]

I predicted 2-4 games for Reaves last night. He has a history, but I think the Jeannot hit was worse, and he only got 3 games. So, a maximum of 5 games seems somewhat fair.

[@thatreidguy]

I think because he only got 3 games for that they go heavier this time as a repeat offender. This is why I predict 4 games.

[@garrickmusic]

It will be 5 games minimum with the Leafs Tax, probably more.

[@Mitch-ui8ps]

He better get minimum 5 that shit was dirty as hell

[@justjohnny420]

​@garrickmusic 5 games is the max he can get though 😂

[@garrickmusic]

@@justjohnny420 Is it? Why is that? I wasn’t aware that there was a five game max on head hits.

[@BlueLiner85]

Keep up the good work, don’t worry about the haters

[@ShreejiMaharajAlways]

Bruins change should start with GM first than coach. Team lacks high end talent and they are not hitting on their high draft picks

[@TheMerlotLine]

Some questionable moves and signings for some time, too.

[@csolivais1979]

When have they had a high draft pick latley?

[@BeanGargler]

The bruins have been the best team in the league cumulatively over the last 15 years. Sweeney and Neely have been pinnacles of winning hockey team management

[@michaelb4590]

Partially correct as they haven’t picked in a good 1st round position in ages. It’s bad free agent signings

[@michaelb4590]

@@BeanGargler😂😂😂 pinnacles ?

[@brandonr.2807]

Canes are playing fantastic hockey right now, Love watching the boys put it together!

[@Jweldsandlifts]

I often watch your game reviews in bed and the other night you started off talking about one of the cats who was giving the stink eye to another. My gf was half asleep, rolled over and said what the heck are you watching? I told her it's THG babe and he's dealing with cat drama, okay? I didn't hear back. Enjoy your date night you two!

[@TheToni9234]

The chytil situation is so unfortunate. For him personally, but also for the team. He has arguably been the best center on the Rangers this year. Wonder what he could develop into without the injuries.

[@serfindukdb1776]

Kyle Davidson: "Hey Connor, which two wingers do you want to play with?" Connor Bedard: "Mitch Marner & Mikko Rantanen. MAKE IT HAPPEN, KYLE"

[@vipeholmskolan6052]

Reaves doing Reaves things again.

[@MarkCMG]

Thanks for the video! Reaves should be having a in-person hearing. Pionk should be fined more. Weirdly, I am fine if players want to drop gloves but I really want the cheap shots to stop and that requires higher fines and longer suspensions. Georgiev has been platooned much of the time this year. Too bad Kaapo Kahkonen was waived but he's in a better place for his own sake. The Spoked B needs (dare I say it) a rebuild. Boston mortgaged the future some time ago and now they are paying the price. A shame about Seth Jones, who I like a lot more than most Blackhawks fans. Crevier is a 23-yo minimum pay guy who is RFA next season. Let's see what he makes of this opportunity. Rangers needs Chytil back soon, I think, but his health is more important if he wants to be able to pump his own gas and use a fork at dinner someday. Canes have been great and Utah had a miracle game between the pipes and in the O-Zone. Sorry Yvonne gets pushback on joining you in the videos. Enjoy the date night.

[@carparthero]

reaves is a pylon. not sure what his purpose is in the NHL occupying a roster spot. people can like or hate nurse, and i'm all for hard clean hitting. reaves crossed the line last night.

[@AreYouKittenMeRtNow]

I don’t like either of those players and I thought that was disgusting

[@jamessheeran4931]

I'm a Leafs fan and I think that hit should be 5 or more

[@autumnfall1997]

I thought it was 5 at least

[@wainber1]

I'm not sure what the outcome of that hearing will be although I hope he will receive suspension for a hit that no doubt was vicious, dangerous and totally unnecessary. Those types of hits no longer have a place in the NHL if they ever did.

[@tecatetime1267]

Please more Yvonne in your videos, it's great and refreshing.

[@dfshark]

I guess I'm a bad Canadian as well. I had no clue that the Grey Cup game was today...I don't watch CFL at all!! :D

[@Jweldsandlifts]

We aren't bad Canadians, 3 downs is criminal and we don't support criminal activities!

[@SverigeiSverige]

Jack Cambell on waivers.

[@retflo2583]

Have a great evening...

[@gordonmacdowell8117]

I hope you don't get caught in the traffic apocalypse downtown tonight, with the Grey Cup ending around the time a hockey game starts.

[@TheHockeyGuy]

We're going to park at Scott Road.

[@jamesnunn5452]

People were complaining that no one came to Boeser defence after his hit. I notice nobody came to Nurse’s defense.

[@valeriehowden471]

Enjoy your date night. Us long time viewers know she does alot of work behind the scenes. ❤ the look she gave you when Jets dropped in the rankings.

[@cyan5161]

0:37 iirc previous suspensions can always be taken into account regardless of how much time has passed, recency would only matter for repeat offender status.

No no, I've seen lots of comments on both Instagram and KZbin by "Toronto-based hockey experts" that confidently say that wasn't a dangerous hit at all and if Nurse just was a better hockey player he wouldn't have hurt himself and that Reaves was clearly just swiping for the puck. Incidental contact, really, according to these "experts"...

[@dennish.7708]

Pionk’s fine is roughly the equivalent of a $75 fine for most folks. Is this a deterrent?

[@michaelb4590]

Good thing they didn’t sign Lindholm at center long term

[@michaelb4590]

Just curious if you think Boston could “re-tool” who do you trade ? Being not a Boston fan I was excited they signed both free agents to too much money and term. So again who do you trade ? Marchand ?

[@sistek133]

If Boston can not get mojo going, I would think retool is only option. But it would be nice to aquire an extra draft pick.

[@dennis2376]

Thank you.

[@clydeblair9622]

Detroit would love to have Montgomery.

[@woodsie22]

Yeah, he would not be unemployed for long. I kinda feel like the reason the Blues kept the interim tag on Bannister for so long last season was to see if Monty would become available

[@tt128556]

Reaves needs to go, that was a Chris Simon level assault on person's life.

[@sabinoruiz2080]

If that was Tom Wilson that made that hit last night they probably suspend him the rest of the year

[@paulbaker9086]

Honest question: do many Canadians care about the Grey Cup? I know a lot of football fans, but none of them follow CFL. Maybe it’s different out west where most of the teams are?

[@r_p_m7330]

Like the superbowl. It draws a lot of fans that don't care about the rest of the season.

[@adamwidmer1705]

depends where you are. It's huge out west (I'm talking to you roughrider fans). In the east not as many people care. In all honesty most sports fans in the GTA (greater Toronto area) would rather watch the Bills. I personally believe this is because they are a carbon copy of the leafs. Always have a good regular season, give the delusional fans false hope, then shit the bed come playoff time.

[@JohannesJanssen4]

There are very few CFL diehard fans, and as far as I can tell they're all in Saskatchewan. Most Canadian football fans want to watch more football than the CFL can offer, so they start watching NFL or US college ball. CFL games can quickly become an afterthought.

[@chancestewart1336]

C RAPPY F OOTBALL L EAUGE

[@justjohnny420]

Personally I care about it more than the super bowl and actually find the sport more enjoyable to watch than slow paced NFL

[@original6hockey402]

Agree time for Boston to make big change% they should deal McAvoy and Pastrnak.

[@dipeachio6832]

Everyone should be on the block

[@jakedodd7895]

Delusional to think Reaves would only get suspended for 2 games… he has been suspended for 5

[@totallykoolyeah]

A certain leafs channel demands a 63 game suspension😊

[@biglebowski3961]

2 to 3 games, his head didn't come off. Ridiculous

[@urtaxwiz]

Twenty years ago the Pionk hip check was a standard move. Now they want to fine him but ignore elbows to the head all over the ice.

[@joshb6470]

you know when you are wearing a Leafs jersey and remember that that plug parros is still in charge expect it to be an overly excessive punishment

[@BradyBanta]

birthday vid

[@omfg322]

Canucks can take zadorov back lol

[@Colin-wi9cd]

The league needs to stop punishing hip checks, refs didn’t see it as a penalty. If you are going to punish it then put it in the rules!

[@HexagonalMan6]

Pionk's hit is clearly at the knee; clipping is a hit at or below the knee. It's a rule.

[@justjohnny420]

That hit was 100% leg, you're not allowed to do that 😂

[@PsychoDadJesseOriginal]

Sign Alex Chaisson for the bruins so he can play the pp

[@bostonwarrior4824]

Gotta fire Sweeney and cam. Signing Lindholm was a terrible idea, looks like a third line center. He’s so bad, zadarov is sooo bad defensively. Both terrible contracts. Plus you have a lot of guys locked up NMC or NTC. Gonna be difficult to do much. But I’d fire Gm and president and then the coach. Ik that seems excessive but they way they are playing is pathetic

[@kftc1980]

I’ve heard people complain about William Karlsson’s contract because he doesn’t score 40 goals. He is a better version of Lindholm, for a lot less $.

[@Undefeatedsports3]

Reaves won’t get suspended.

[@gallydex3566]

He got 5 games lol

[@Undefeatedsports3]

@@gallydex3566as an oilers fan I’m glad

A hearing means a suspension.

[@RiccoNapoleon]

@ ya but what do they do for suspensions 2 to 3 games like what is that gonna do when you have players like him doing it ever year it’s just a slap on the wrist when it comes to players like him and Tom

[@TheHockeyGuy]

Tom hasn't been suspended in ages. 3 games isn't nothing since he also forfeits three games worth of pay.

[@gallydex3566]

He got 5 games

Shannon as i watched the hit on Nurse and i will stick with this never come around the net with your head down. He looked at the puck and got hit simple as that no penalty no suspension nothing!
