Looks like Hutchinson gets the nod tonight. And before we harangue and rage, there are a lot of good reasons for this:
1) Campbell is coming back from injury; rest is key to any recovery
2) Campbell took Ennis' hip to the head; Tyler tried to avoid it, but Jack put himself in a vulnerable position trying to smother
3) 10pm start time is a mess for Leafs' rhythm, so why not put the freshest goalie who will not be relied on for multiple starts after this game to take the hit

I don't think there was much Ennis could do and certainly nothing illegal but it would be nice if players stopped running into our $*%(&#$%* goalies.

I'll probably get criticized for this as I'm always saying how soft this team is. You can debate some hits etc and I'm first to point out how this game has gotten stupid when it comes to hitting. Clean hits and players come running to a teammates defence after getting hit. The questionable or dirty hits are the ones where someone should step in and stand up for a teammate especially the stars. Draisaitl hitting Marner the other day should have been a penalty and was cheap and someone should have stepped in. Comes back to who is that going to be? The goons are gone and so be it that's the way the league has gone. In my opinion though you need some players that can play but also strike a little fear in the opposition so shit like that may not happen. Players aren't stupid and unfortunately teams take liberty when playing the Leafs because they know there won't be any repercussions. Some of you will disagree but in my opinion you need that balance still especially come playoffs.

The Swedish NHL rights are owned by a company called Viaplay. Their sport package is actually pretty good value for money. For 67 Canadian dollars a month you get access to every regular season and playoff game, and you can watch them up to 48 after they finish. Only a few of them will have swedish comentators and intermission talk but that's fine by me, I prefer the original comentators anyway.
You also get access to a bunch of other sports and leagues but that is of litle interest to me.
I might just pay for my hockey moving forward.
What's the cost of full access in Canada?

I'm in Australia and with NHL.TV it's typically US$25 a month.

That's not too expensive.
A bit anoying with blackout restrictions though.
I wish I could push the price down by removing all the other sports in the package but that's not an option. Who knows, maybe my sport interest will grow and diversify one day.

Can you call and ask for a reduction? Maybe a promotional rate or something?
