bobby mc jesus is back! here he is talking about his injury and return

transcript under the cut

Q. do you think you'll be back playing tomorrow night?

uh hopefully, I feel good, feel ready to go, definitely took the time to feel better so hopefully

Q. what was is that led to the injury? was it something you've been dealing with or was it more of an acute circumstance?

yeah, it was more just like an isolated event. nothing i was dealing with. i think maybe just like some things transpired in the game where I guess I just didn't feel like, I guess when I hurt it initially I could think back to when maybe okay maybe I felt like a tweak or something but nothing that was like significant it just kind of went on me

Q. how difficult do you think it will be to get back in the lineup I mean compared to where your game was at when you went out?

um I feel like I haven't been out a ton of time and I've definitely been skating a good amount, like I didn't miss a lot of time off the ice. the game speed is always something that takes a bit of an adjustment but not being out that long, I don't think it'll be um too hard and I just trust that I'll rely on what works well for me

Q. what do you know of Fraser Minten?

uh he's good player he's obviously young but he plays a bit of an older game. he's poised and he makes smart plays and understands the game really well so I think he's he's doing really well

Q. what went through your mind last night when you saw Stolarz go down the way he did and leave the game?

yeah obviously you're just worried about him, hopefully it's not anything major, especially the way he's been playing, he's just been keeping us in games, winning us games, just been an absolute back stop back there so you never want to see that and you just hope that it's not long term

Q. Max getting back into the lineup, having the game he did, what sort of immediate impact did you see him make?

he's just a power forward, he gets the net, he's hard on pucks and plays really well around their net and making plays, plays to the guys he was with so he did a great job

Q. For a guy like him who early in his career was known as a real offensive guy, to embrace taking on a bit of a different role this year, playing physically he was talking about how he knows what his role is on the line, what does that say about him in terms of what he's willing to do for the good of the team?

yeah shows he's a good leader, shows he wants to win first and foremost and doing whatever it takes to be a contributor and fill holes on this team that maybe aren't there all the time so he's definitely doing a great job of bringing that presence and bringing that style of game

Q. what do you learn about Dennis Hildeby over the time in the organization?

he's a professional, right from when he came here, saw him with the marlies and he just takes every rep, everything to the maximum, even in practice, even after practice if we're just doing like shootouts and stuff he wants to keep every puck out of the net, so just a professional all the time

Q. when you're injured, obviously on a team with a number of injuries already, how do you balance that pressure to get back in the lineup whilst still doing what's best for you?

yeah I mean that's a good question actually because it's always hard, you want to get back right away but, that's the hardest thing to balance with injury, is trying to come back at the right time where you're not going to re-injure it and I think that's that's the point where you know okay you can feel confident you can push it maybe you still have a little bit of pain or maybe you're not feeling 100% but it's at the point where you're not going to re-injure it and then hurt the team anymore because if you're out again then you're just hurting the team again so just when you're feeling better

Q. as craig always says now, you're ready to go when you say you're ready to go, do put do your hand up at one point and say just give me an appearance [i have no idea what the reporter said here]

yeah it's not necessarily that you wake up one morning, it's always a progression and there's always metrics you want to hit with strength and speed and things like that and how you feel on the ice but yeah I guess there is a point where you're kind of like okay I'm ready do this like you feel it one day on the ice you're like oh I didn't feel it through that turn I didn't feel it through there and then you're ready to go

Q. what went through your mind when you got hurt?

just initially, there's always that frustration and then you're hoping that it's not anything too drastic and you're waiting for the the pain to go away a little bit and then kind of reassess so always a bit of frustration but it wasn't too bad

Q. sorry if you said before, i got here late, but what actually happened to you? what happened on the play or what ever?

I just over stretched on a stride and just felt it through my groin, i think I just overexerted on something

New video!

While VNs with grand, thrilling multi-route scenarios are the norm now, they were once something new, and it all began with one corny mess that goes wildly off the rails. Also, Nasu maybe ripped it off.

Let's talk about 1996's Kizuato.

Daniel grips cold porcelain between his fingers and watches the veins in his hand push against the skin with the effort. He takes one long, deep breath and takes stock of himself. His hair is freshly cut. His suit is tailored perfectly. When he smiles at his reflection, he can see a brief glimpse of the guy who once had a C over his chest and skated more naturally than he walked. Toronto is going to be different, he promises himself. If this is his last chance at a Stanley Cup, he isn't leaving without a fight.

Spooky Season Recap

Originally Auston suggested you go as yourselves to the team Halloween party.

All it took was one girl wearing a look similar to one of your concert outfits with a mic and her boyfriend in a leafs jersey for it to become a trend this Halloween.

You automatically shut the idea down.

And instead you show up as Linguini (Auston) and Remy (you) from ratatouille.

Which is iconic bc a week before a popular hockey blog said you’re controlling everything Auston does.

You and Auston agreed at the beginning of the night you would have a few drinks and that’s it.

You both were delusional because you end up being the drunkest.

You blame it on Auston because he kept challenging everyone to beer pong.

He blames it on you because “If you were better at throwing, we wouldn’t have drank so much.”

You end the night on the kitchen floor, giggling as you eat candy and make fun of each other for how drunk the other is.

The next night which is actually Halloween was supposed to be spent curled up on the couch watching movies, but John and Aryn want to take the kids trick or treating so they ask you to house sit and hand out candy while they’re out.

You happily agree, excited for the excuse to wear another costume.

You let Auston choose and he decided to be Carl, you got to be Russel and Felix was Doug.

You and Auston sit on the front porch, felix in between you, handing out candy.

Lots of families ask for pictures and autographs. Your favorite costumes were the kids that were dressed up as you.

They may or may not have screamed, cried, and one kid even threw up from excitement.

(y/f/n) (y/l/n) and Auston Matthews Relationship Under Fire

The larger-than-life relationship between Toronto Maple Leafs Captain, Auston Matthews and musician (y/f/n) (y/l/n) has been all the talk in mainstream media and sports discourse alike. However, many fans are upset with recent comments made by NHL commentator, Mark Rosario and have claimed that the conversation has gone too far.

The Penalty Box, is a panel of five NHL commentators on ESPN. The panel usually discusses the latest games and the players that make it possible. However, the discussion on Sunday evenings segment took a turn.

Mark Rosario, one of five hosts didn’t hold back when sharing his thoughts about the Toronto Maple Leafs season thus far. Rosario began the discussion by questioning the legitimacy of Auston’s captaincy of the Leafs, saying, “It’s easy to be named captain when your girlfriend is the biggest celebrity in the world and your team is profiting off of it.” Since going public with their relationship, in person attendance at Leafs games has doubled while viewers at home has almost tripled. While the team was already popular, many attribute the new widespread interests to (y/l/n).

“Regardless of what team you support, her attachment to the NHL has brought on millions of new viewers who would’ve never been interested otherwise. She’s made the sport more popular than ever and we should all be capitalizing on that.” Russel Brewer, another host spoke up. Rosario, however, didn’t waver, “I disagree, I think her presence will not only be detrimental to the Leafs organization, but to Auston Matthews, specifically. No other team will take them seriously and they sure as hell won’t take him seriously as a captain.” Rosario shrugs continuing, “Ya know that kids movie with the rat that can cook and he’s controlling the guy by pulling his hair, that’s how I view (y/f/n) (y/l/n) and Auston Matthews relationship.”

While, Rosario has yet to issue an apology, it’s safe to say his commentary had no influence on Leafs fans as they continued to show up and show out.
