The Leafs head coach had an up-front conversation with Mikhail Grabovski at the tail-end of Wednesday's morning skate at Consol Energy Center, impressing upon him the need for increased tenacity or a return to his usual form. "He has to play with more fire and more of his natural personality versus what we're seeing now," Carlyle said. "In his defence, he's just trying to be cautious and be in the right place at the right time ... [But] the reality for him is that we need more fire and more nastiness from him."

"I need to put gas in my tank," Grabovski agreed, his usual wit still in fine form.


oh i bet we see a different grabo tonight

whenever I'm in a bar in the states I always ask "what do you have on tap that isn't Lite." Waitress usually has to think for a while...

They have some beastly micro brews down there. But they're never in the restaurants

I miss working at a brewery when I was younger. End of the week you could take home a flat(24) of the over/under-filleds. Could get away with 2 or 3 flats or a keg, grab some broken pallets for firewood and have a proper bush party.

Simple rule in America: ask the waitress or bartender what they have that is local.

I dunno about that. I usually like to pretend I'm from a northern state so they don't get the idea that I'm some foreigner secretly working for the UN to invade and take all their precious guns and freedom.

Does anyone else work with a person that has a truly horrendous laugh? I have about three of them and they all hang out near my desk and joke around all day. It sounds like a herd of donkeys getting strangled over here.

That doesnt mean he wouldnt do it, or that he MLSE arent thinking about it. It just means they havent spoken.

He also said in the same interview that he has only talked to the Kings about a similar position.

His family is down there. He is not going to uproot them to move to Toronto.

Oh yeah, good point. Damn. Wish I could wear headphones or something, it's pretty brutal. Half the time people thing someone is having an asthma attack or choking...it's not a normal laugh at all.
