Roberts, Clarke and Tucker had more heart than anyone.. How about Sundin? Are you going to say he didn't have heart either?

Too late on a Friday to start this one....

Yeah, I'm not comfortable saying Burke could have been a genius in this.

It was a bad trade. The timing was just awful.

But it wasn't Kessel's fault.
- Atomic Wedgie

Was never supposed to be a top 5 pick. Hell he figured it to be a in the teens pick. The hockey god's conspired against him.

Not at the same level of the aforementioned, but yes - he did. You don't score as many OT winners as he did without heart and passion.

Good

Finn, Rielly

Meh

Blacker
Percy
Nilsson

Bleh

Holzer, Loov

MEAHAHAHAHA

Granberg, MacWilliam, Robertson

Arguably the top defensemen at the juniors..... monsieur frenchie

Poor (frank)ing Kessel man, has there ever been a more-criticized sixth overall scorer in any league in all of sports history? Lol...every team in the league will consider Kessel if/when he becomes a UFA and all of their fans will play with themselves if he goes to their team

Absolutely wicked backhander as well

Leafs confirm Burke will give press conference at noon at ACC tomorrow.

Great - another generation of Leafs fans who want to cheer for Motor City Smitty and Domi and Foligno.

I want to cheer for Gilmour and Roberts and Tucker and Clark. Not Mogilny and Hoglund and Modin and Renberg.

I wouldn't say even the best on his team but to each his own.

As soon as the next good player comes along, he will get the same treatment from some Leaf fans.

a Top six scorer and he is not good enough to play for the Leafs by some, yeah, get rid of him..

Phil Kessel can change that.

No... They won't. All you guys keep saying is "6th in the league in scoring." It was the first time in his career he's had more than 64 points. Kessel is a great complimentary player but he's not the guy that a team should be building around.

As soon as the next good player comes along, he will get the same treatment from some Leaf fans.

Nobody will be complaining the second we start making the playoffs, until then...well you know, we've been at this for 10 years now.

I still say the Canadian Hockey League should be for Canadians either that or change the name.

Would you not prefer a non top 6 scorer who shows leadership, heart and passion, like Jonathan Toews for example? I sure as hell would.

Absolutely wicked backhander as well
- JIMI-JAMES

ridiculous backhander!!!

Where's UG?

It's the way it goes.

Damien Cox is a douche bag....

He sent a tweet that the League and Teams will be bending over backwards to win back the fans.

I tweeted back to him that the fans during the lockout bent over and took it.

He blocked me..........
