Seriously? At this point in time the odds favour the canucks by a wide margin, unless your a blind follower of a GMless team...oh wait they took another of our castoffs as a gm right?

Too bad there isnt a "yawn" emoticon.

I dont care about odds, I care about results.

The odds of the Canucks, with their aging roster, being better than the Leafs making the playoffs is not that wide of a margin. Both long shots at best.

Funny you make fun of canucks fans and then offer your garbage players thinking its ok....once again not so shocking.
- rune_74

I dont even think those players are garbage their all good prospects. You guys can keep dreaming about getting our best players. You guys dont even want Lou so why complain.

What does that have to do with the Leafs being in great shape?

I know you don't like his opinion, that's fine, I agree Luongo is a better goalie than Bryz, imo.

MacKenzie picked them to finisg 15 th in the East

[quote=VANTELLets see a gold medal winner, Jennings trophy .multiple vezinas nominations , 2 presidents trophy and a Stanley cup finalist against a rookie that has problems in his own end and helped lead his team to 29 th spot .

Where can I sign up?



Non of that matters. All the matters is his conract. Period.

None of that matters. The only thing that matters is his contract. Period.

Where are these delusional fans saying they are in great shape? I'm around Leaf fans here a lot and the only thing they say about being in good shape is being set up comfortably with cap space for the next few years and only a couple of long term contracts (JVR). Have a little bit of depth in the AHL and juniors but very little elite talent.

If your going to make a broad statement like that, at least back it up and don't go by the obvious troll accounts..

Well played good sir.

They probably will thats why our 1st isnt going anywhere.

Must be. Why else trade such an amazing goalie that eats planets for breakfast?

Any other reason? I'll wait until you find a way around this. Take your time.

You mean no GM is smart enough to figure out after 6 more years Lu comes down with concusion like Symtoms?

Could very well be, depends if they buy into Carlyle's system and goaltending, then they move up a few spots closer to 8th.

I dont even think those players are garbage their all good prospects. You guys can keep dreaming about getting our best players. You guys dont even want Lou so why complain.
- LEAFSfan28191

They are only good prospects to leaf fans, to everyone else they are basically average.

They probably will thats why our 1st isnt going anywhere.
- LEAFSfan28191

so what happens if you draft 14 th?

To bad the new CBA doesn't have a clause where you can buy out a couple of contracts. Wait, what...........?
- fiveandagame

So you think they would keep Bryz and Luongo this year just to buy out Bryz next year? That's a TON of money committed to goalies over the next 10years, lol

Um, because we have two great goalies. You have none.

- VANTEL

Gillis obviously was. Again, why trade him?

Lets see a gold medal winner, Jennings trophy .multiple vezinas nominations , 2 presidents trophy and a Stanley cup finalist aainst a rookie that has problems in his own end and helped lead his team to 29 th spot .

... But let's disregard Lu's age and contract, and the fact that a stacked Van team in arguably the weakest division (until recently) had anything to do with any of those rewards.

Exactly. Gardiner WAS A ROOKIE D-man who managed to turn heads around the league with his poise, skating, pucks smarts, vision etc despite being on a lottery team.

- rune_74

You have one great goalie and a goalie thats been great in only 60 games.

I was right, you guys would find a way around discussing the horrid contract.

Dude we don't play the leafs 6 times a year, too bad...

Its called postional depth. The Canucks feel that they have 2 #1 goalies and there is a redundency in that. They want to trade one to help fill holes in other areas. Is this really a difficult concept to figure out?

Gardener doesn't make sense.. So Reilly does?

You'd have been better off removing that line that said no sarcasm intended before posting.

Ridiculous.


- joel878

So Rielly for Corrado

so what happens if you draft 14 th?
- VANTEL

We get another good prospect. Its a deep draft.

But you're a Canucks fan. Hire Fletcher. He can draft shmaft with the best of them.

You mean no GM is smart enough to figure out after 6 more years Lu comes down with concusion like Symtoms?
- VANTEL

And yet (outside of Rielly), there probably isn't a Leaf that the Canucks and their fans want more

- systemtool

Though toronto had a ton of money...Van can seem to afford it. His cap hit is what 5.3 m? That too rich for you guys?

29 teams couldn't take Nash becasue of of his NTC. I would love for you to give me a detailed list of teams that would take Luongo. As far as I know, Gillis is the only one that has that info.

Read the top of page9.

So Rielly's jock for Corrado
- Scooby_Doo

Fixed.
