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.

He has family here too. And you just made my point. Your post only says he hasnt talked to the Leafs, not that there wouldnt be interest. Which is speculation at best anyways. You've proven nothing really.

You two have far too much history to just let it end like this.

If you don't try to talk to him now, you'll always wonder what might have been.

If you are looking for an ice breaker, I suggest this:

"Hey Flyers fans, just wondering how Luke Schenn has looked. Stupid Leafs Nation always said he didn't have footspeed, but that's just because they don't understand the game like real pros do. He doesn't have a footspeed problem."

His wife, and his kids, going to school there.

Not a chance he leaves there to come back to Ontario.

About as much chance as Luongo being traded to the Oilers.

Didn't stop him from becoming a TD Bank ambassador 2 years ago, where they paid him millions to attend parties in Toronto with other very rich and wealthy people and chit chat about how great TD bank is.

I'm guessing president of the Leafs is pretty much the same gig?

I could see him becoming something along those lines. A glorified ambassador.

jets in to town every couple of weeks etc.

Then he goes on to say this.......


Elliotte Friedman ‏@FriedgeHNIC

Gretzky did say, however, that it would not be a problem to relocate if a job he wanted required that

You should email Frieds and Gretz and tell them they're idiots and give them the same reasons you gave us.

Tell you what....... I'll give you 5 to 1 odds that he doesn't surface in Toronto.

Care to wager?

One of the Refs can hold the cash. We can set till July 1st as the deadline for the wager.

I just heard from a reliable source that the Burkie Dogs hot dog stand at the ACC has just switched to Polish sausages.

Expect a Gretzky announcement soon.

Trade Idea

To NYI:

Phil Kessel
Stuart Percy

To Tor:

Nino niederreiter
Ryan Strome

I think this would work for both teams, but Nonis would need ownership approval to trade our best player and tank this year. It would help us get closer to one of Jones, Drouin, or Mackinnon at the 2013 draft though.

Way to start the thread with the dumbest proposal i've ever seen. Why did you add Percy, and why do we not have a 1st and Okposo added our way? Kessel gets 50+ goals with Tavares and puts them in a playoff spot. Why on earth would we do that.

How did you generate the 1.21 gigawatts to travel back in time to read a post from 24 pages ago?

I'm more interested in the part where he travels in the future and he sees Kessel scoring 50 goals with Tavares.

Marty,

you feel better about your habs today? Didn't see the game. Did they play better or was it Florida totally stunk?

A combination of both.

Actually, what really helped is Andrei Markov playing like.... Andrei Markov.
I'm still in shock.
