Kessel would be a nice addition to the second or third line for us. You guys think that since he "was 6th in scoring" last season he is automatically one of the best players in the league. I would much rather have Seguin + Hamilton.

Oh ya, Hamilton was a real stud at the WJC.

Nice try sport

What do we need? First round picks??

A chance at getting a sniper is better than having a sniper already

i was thinking Tatar or Sheahan

That's a start...though no to the poopty alchy who will be lucky to be a fourth liner.

They haven't done that properly yet.

What I don't get is this "get into 8th, get your ass kicked and pretend to be happy because they made the playoffs" stuff.

Dave Naylor nailed it in his recent article. This team needs to take the long road and that includes sticking to this rebuild and doing it right.

We have come to the point we want all to fail instead of hoping they do well, it is completely screwed up.

Let's play these guys and hope they fail, just not right , imo.

....Well there's your problem.

It's not a problem, I'm cool with it.

For the most part the entire team was sh!t. Are you seriously judging all of Canada's top prospects based on the World Juniors?

So a 6 game tournament has told you all you need to know about Hamilton?
Where was Mackinnon all tournament? I think it's pretty safe to say he will be a bust now, huh?

Or last offseason..

"If the Leafs want to make the playoffs, they'll give Bryzaglov whatever he wants. He'll be the best goalie since Cujo"..



This offseason

"The Leafs would be idiots to trade for a 33 year old goalie... Woo first round exit!!!"

MacKinnon played 4th line minutes.

Hamilton was the go to defensemen. They went to him, he failed.

It's not a problem, I'm cool with it.

Michael Grabner was tied for 7th in scoring a couple years ago. Where would you have him on your list of best players in the league?

I thought MacKinnon played well but didn't get the ice time. He'll still go first overall.

Below Kessel

Probably pretty close to him though, right? I mean, he DID finish 7th in scoring after all.

Well, maybe now is a good time for Nonis to try pick him up. Since he is a bust and a bit of a project maybe he can be had for a 4th or 5th round draft pick.

Where's UG?
- faceto27

He was banned for 18 months.

you guys still talking about Kessel, I would hate to have him on the wings. man, worst guy ever from the comments around here.

ya but he one upped u with the teletubby costume.
- wingz4life

Not gonna lie I wrote a blog about it but it was pulled immediately because we "Can't air players dirty laundry" That was a great story. Wasn;t he like a blood/alc of .30 or something

No, not nearly as good as Kessel. Just because Grabner was seventh in scoring one year doesn't mean he's as good as Kessel.
