Fine the age thing is legit and he probably would get 4 x 4.5 which we'd all female dog about in 2 years.

Can we take a stab at Chris Stewart. The Leafs need some PF's that remind us of #17 rather than #80.

Ah, yes, nothing like asking for them for 2/3rds of a cup of Coke.

Drop 2 of the Lucics, and take a Lindros and a Gretzky.

Thanks.

My friend and I split a plate of the nachos at the ACC on Saturday.

Do you know how drunk you have to be to think that those nachos are a good idea?

Here's a handy little secret for my fellow beer drinkers at the ACC:

If you look into the time keeper's box, a little yellow light comes on whenever the next stoppage in play will neccessitate a TV timeout.

So as soon as you see that light, get ready to make a bolt for the washroom and beer stand. When the whistle goes, the light goes red, and off you go!

Do they search for hidden beer-bladders at the ACC?

A guy with questionable upside, a 6'4 ECHLer, a guy with a long way to prove he wasn't just benefiting from elite players his whole junior career and a midget


Sign him

Man, what is Ross doing with the Marlies.


I get not having a ton of points, as a first year pro player... but he's supposed to be an agitator... how does he only have 13PIMs

I don't think PIMs are a good stat, mind you, but there's no way he's playing his style and only pulling 13 PIMs in 19 games.

RFA, plus St Louis has to open up the wallet next season, a lot of RFA.'s to sign and big ones to boot.

If you look at their payroll, they have something like 20 million in cap space this year, next season if they want to keep the group together, they have to spend a lot of money.

Definitely, but I will give Wilson some credit:

He was good at getting offensively-minded players to reach their potential. He worked one-on-one with Grabo to get him to be effective in the face-off circle, and really brought out his skill. He got Kulemin to be a 30 goal guy, revived Lupul's career, and made MacArthur look like a legit 2nd liner.

But when it came to team-play... damn did he suck at putting all the pieces together.

- Feeling Glucky?


He did a good job coaching offensively, but look at how bad those teams had to be defensively in order to Kulemin 30 goals, same with MacArthur. I'd rather less offense and more wins. I do agree he did do some good work with the forwards.

I like RC ....but he blew the match up game on that Boston goal. He sent the 5 slowest Leafs over the boards which made a routine rush down the ice turn into an odd man rush.

Send him a memo that if the Steckel line is on the ice ...Fraser-Franson can't be.

- The Law


I think he blew the NYR game, too, as good as he's been for our team. He admitted as much.

31 minutes is way too long to play any defenseman not named Lidstrom. Let alone Mike Kostka.

They were clearly gassed about half way through the 2nd period and the 4th line ended up with 3 minutes all night. One shift per period isn't going to cut it.

beer stand first, and then the washroom?


Nothing like walking out of the bathroom with a cup full of foamy yellow liquid.

Oh I agree completely. I just believe in giving credit where credit is due, even if I don't like the guy.

I was hoping Toronto traded for Stewart before he was moved to St.Louis. I doubt Toronto has a chance at him, but if they did, they should definitely go after him.

Perhaps by playing Kotska so much they are inadvertently tanking

Doesn't play enough minutes yet and when he does play it is 4th line, last game they had Devane, McKegg and Ross as the 4th line.

It's a good camera. Especially if you're used to point-and-shoots.


But if you're used to SLRs, he Fujifilm kills it.

Scary thing is I'm sure we'd make the playoffs, but I wouldn't guarantee us a Stanley Cup.
