Toronto Leafs +120 (Pinny)

:pucky:
 
Auston Matthews scores the Leafs' first goal of the season (and his first NHL goal, obviously.)

Leafs Nation just creamed its collective pants.
 
Holy shit, his second goal was sick. He made three or four Sens look like ruhtards.
 
I wonder what odds coulda got on an Auston Matthews hat trick tonight. He's got an excellent shot at it now.
 
come on baby, hat trick debut one time

COMMON

just another kid from Arizona added to the list of great hockey stars out of the grand canyon state
 
went through the picks earlier but i don't that was even available
 
OMFG

Hat trick in one period and change

:bowdown:
 
Let's make it five, Austonballs. One PP goal plus an empty-netter. Common.
 
I'd like to think this thread provided the impetus for this stellar debut


you're welcome
 
greatest debut in a first game for any athlete in any pro sport ever already
 
...and the Leafs still find a way to lose. :biglaugh:

Final score: Sens 5 Matthews 4
 
Well it's the NHL. There's losing - and there's losing.

Which is to say there's losing - which would be losing - and then there is you-lost-but-we-don't-want-you-feeling-too-hurt. So you get a point. See? You didn't really lose lose.

You get a point.

There there.
 
Typical for a Good ol' boy to step in and save a franchise 'up there'.

I saw somewhere Letang wrote "welcome to our beer league" :mrquincy:
