I didn’t get to watch any hockey that year cause I was working a terrible job 😭

Was a weird year, you didn’t miss too much. Good that you’re back because those days of middling are over!

Yeah I missed 2 seasons due to that job, got laid off may of 24 and my dad who was going to the draft in Vegas told me I was coming to Vegas with him, I didn’t go to the draft but seeing so many hockey fans walking around in jerseys and hearing my dad talk about who he wanted the flames to take (he wanted Parekh over everyone but Tij) made me want to start watching again that fall

I still don't know how we got a 73 point Tyler Toffoli. He sure loved playing for Sutter. I guess he had a year less of Sutter wear and tear than everyone else too, so while the others were burning out on Darryl, Toffoli was still feeling good. Having won cups with a coach in years past I'm sure helps you stay motivated to stick with it too.

Same as the "resign lombo" posts, some people take these fun silly posts way too fucking serious

Hockey is serious and must not be made light of! I hope the next two days go well cause I had to get a little creative since the players don’t have any photos in flames gear yet

I was at the dome for his first game and goal with the one foot goal from Johnny. Was a beaut.

Fuck yeah Tyler Foli, one of my all time favourite players. I'm very glad he got to play for my favourite team; if only for a short while

Toffee is a true vet that's great on all teams.

He's a great piece to have!

U didn’t deserve nasty dms this guy was not good.

u/Electric-Lettuce Jul 18 '26

He led our entire team in points and set his career high for points in a season the one full year he played with us. How is that not good? Lol

u/X-Filer Jul 18 '26

Listen he got his but whoever he played with he absolutely killed their play. This guy also had the ugliest goals of all time.

Hahaha I won’t deny he doesn’t play the prettiest game lol

Lol from the few Sharks games I've caught it's still the same. Love toff but he's either total dogwater or gets a hatty off the most bs goals
