Kings gave every fan tonight at staples a replica Stanley cup ring... What a great idea.

It should have been placed in a box of Cheerios.

Free Breakfast for all the bastards!

zero issue with that signing, has started the year with 4 points in 5 games. so its been more of the same from him really.

Exactly, won't find many leaf fans that will complain a whole lot about his signing.

Not sure why, but the Leafs have to overplay current players to stay, and no one wants to sign there as a ufa...and if they do, it's someone like Connolly.

Canucks on the other hand, get discounts on both Rfa and ufas.

They wouldn't dare put their ring finger that close to a canucks players mouth

How did Jensen not get suspended?

Hansen?

Hansen?

Whichever, he cross checked the ref.

It's sad that 4.6 for Garrison is seen as a discount. Garbovski more than likely would have got in Free Agency what leafs gave him, maybe lupul too.

pretty sure grabovski was better than Kesler last year and definitely so this year...

yeah i would say burrows is the comparable and he is signed for a million less.

however it looks like grabo is out of the gate a bit quicker this year. 4 points to burrows 2, and as a leafs fan, i wont lie, i hope that trend continues

pretty sure grabovski was better than Kesler last year and definitely so this year...
- jribout

and Kesler is paid twice as much as Grabovski this year

both would have gotten significantly more.

MacArthur and Kulimen probably too. Actually don't mind where the leafs are when it comes to contracts and cap space and such.

Ya Edler sure looked worth way more than $5M a year last night... such a sweet pass... oh wait...

how much of a discount did Luongo take to stay?

@rayferrarotsn: Fans in LA get to shoot on goal prior to warmup..Kings and Canucks at 730pst #tsn http://t.co/CJHKd6yM..



Sure hope leafs had scouts present...

I think he's overpaid but I don't consider him overrated.

He hauls big minutes, and despite the odd McCabe-esque brainfart he's actually pretty good.

Just be nice if he could hit the bloody net once in a while
- AngryWhiteMale

Offensively he's pretty bad I think. I've never seen a less accurate shot. I don't mind him defensively.

Strangely enough the general consensus seems to suggest I have things backwards.

One year wonder Garrison was not a discount.

Great play by Carter to save that break away.
