Five games.

Don't worry. He originally posted stats (after 2 games) without the salary, age, and contract info. In April he will be including marital status and who has the better car to justify his post.

Don't even try for rational discussion.

That's why I kept it simple, and limited my response to two words.

Maybe I should have used the numeral "5" instead of spelling it out, though? Or posted a picture of a hand holding out five fingers?

Oilers suck anyways cap goes down that have 12 million between hall and ebs never mind adding nuge, yak and Schultz who will get close to the same so that close to 30 million plus a starting goalie and fill out the roster they are (frank)ed

Its weird how the biggest oxygen thieves in Leafs nation find their way here all the time. Dont worry. Im sure Kessel will resign to continue enjoying all that success.

It's called P E N I S (success and/or potential for success) envy, the Leafs have the playoff bubble to look forwards to for years to come, while Edmonton in a couple of years will be a contender or close to it.

I wanted to respond to this from the last blog.

Once again you are showing your hockey ignorance.

When Garrison became a free agent he stated publicly that he wanted to be a canuck. Do you have any idea how valuable that is to an organization? Of course you don’t.
Garrison’s contract was inline with the market value. In fact, he signed a contract that was considered a hometown discount.
Even though I’m not a fan of it, AV and Bowness’ defensive system is considered complex. A lot of offensive responsibility is placed on the defence and that takes time to learn.

Give the guy a few weeks to get used to his linemates and you’ll see why he was so sought after. Educate yourself.

I don't know why some Canucks fans are being so hard in Garrison. As a Blackhawks fan so I can speak on this subject with a little more objectivity. Garrison is an excellent defenseman and wanted to be a Canuck, then your GM went out and signed him to a very reasonable deal. After a long lockout the entire team has struggled for various reasons but its expected that Garrison would be the savior? The guy is playing on a new team with a new defensive partner in a city that puts a lot of pressure on the team (and his how town no less)? By the end of the season I have no doubt Garrison will be playing like he did in Florida (or better). As time goes on this signing will look better and better I assure you.

Hmmm 5 games, eh? That's as foolish as those idiots who judge prospects entirely based on the World Juniors. How about their career stats?

Cory Schneider 2.29 GAA, .926 SV%, 40W-19L-4OTL
Roberto Luongo 2.52 GAA, .919 SV%, 339W-283L-33T-51OTL

James Reimer 2.84 GAA, .911SV%, 35W-25L-9OTL
Ben Scrivens 3.09 GAA, .899SV%, 5W-7L-2OTL

I love how Leafs fans mock the Oilers despite the fact that most of them wanted to do exactly what Oilers have done the past few years by stockpiling great young talent. Talk about jealousy.
