Fair enough.

Leafs need to remember to play 2 extra periods

Pretty safe bet there eh?

Bryzgalov, Tlusty, Earl, Mitchell....

Just a few examples of the gems you've listed as being superstar potential over the years...

how bad were the two recalled goals? any fault on the reffs part?

Phaneuf's doing fine, stick a Ryan Suter beside him he'd be a 50-60 point d-man again. But he's got Kostka. dem be the breaks....ps hows weber doing without suter?
- mykokes

How is Suter without Brodin?

As respectfully as possible.. Because I'm not interested in the 30 page battle that follows this..

But since when do you care about the team doing anything that helps them win? Kindve gathered the impression that the team losing games is pretty much gravy for you.
- joel878

Because the young guys matter and should be given more ice time and opportunity when they are earning it. Odds are, over the course of the season, the young guys still lead the team to a great draft pick but the important part is that they get the ice time to improve themselves.

oh (frank)

thanks alot

the only thing i disagreed with was breaking up the frattin kadri komarov line

i have zero issue playing them as a whole in a different role
- Dozzer

Komarov doesn't do anything special. Replace him with Kessel, make Frattin go to the net while allowing Kadri to set-up the trigger man, Kessel.

What are you talking about? How is what Phaneuf is doing fine? He's payed over 6 million dollars, is the captain, has 1 assist, and is getting burnt 3+ times a game. But that is fine? And immediately everyone else's fault on the ice?

oh (frank)

thanks alot
- Dozzer

im sorry, i missed them not trying to cause any poop here.

Nope, that was NEVER said by anyone.

More sarcasm.
- Leafland

Holzer went to the same hockey school as Phaneuf.

DAMN! I am so happy to hear that! Watching him for years in Calgary, he lost all his positional play way back then. He was far too emotional. Sure he makes good hits... but that is his job... not an extra that he should be more valued for.

I am not saying he is a complete doofus, but Burke sold him waaaaaaaaaay to high to the fans. I would like the 'C' to move on.
- Beatle_john

I think you'll find the percentage of phaneuf supporters among Toronto fans is the minority.

Even a good chunk of the ones that do know the 'C' being on him is a farce.

Disagree....

I think it's been Kostka so far this year that's bailed out Phaneuf's brain farts.

Well.... put Suter anywhere and suddenly they are all 60 point guys. Phaneuf was supposed to make everyone else better. He was "the Suter".

Toskala is a 1A goalie. My favorite

Oh, you mean the arguments that little Nicky had with him previously on HB, wonder how you remembered only those, oh, yeah, you are him, my bad...

- Two_For_Truth

Just curious when you're going to stop messaging yourself with this useless banter back and forth?

Btw - Tlusty looked good out there today. Seriously.

How is Suter without Brodin?
- AdamFrench

Do you mean Weber? If you do, well he's turning Tom Gilbert into a 40 point d-men.

Actually that's the opposite of what he needs. Phaneuf needs to stop trying to move the puck because he has no idea how to do it. Phaneuf should be the one focusing on defense and leave his offensive game to the PP. But his offensive game is another problem because he's too stupid to know that he should be shooting low and hard instead of trying to pick corners with a shot that has hurt more people than it has scored goals.
- Two_For_Truth

IF he's "brain dead" then better to play him with a smart and responsible guy rather than leaving him and a more attacking guy out to pasture, as is happening now

Komarov doesn't do anything special. Replace him with Kessel, make Frattin go to the net while allowing Kadri to set-up the trigger man, Kessel.
- Two_For_Truth

you wont convince me of this

taking komarov off their line changes frattin's role. and frattin is thriving right now

kessel's problem isnt his linemates... its because he is doing his best jason blake impersonation and skating around the outside until he finds a wide open lane.. one in which the goalie sees him coming a mile away

no linemate is going to fix that for him.. he himself needs to start taking it to the net, not get a linemate to do it for him

he had the same damn problem last season when he struggled.

Phaneuf's doing fine, stick a Ryan Suter beside him he'd be a 50-60 point d-man again. But he's got Kostka. dem be the breaks....ps hows weber doing without suter?
- mykokes

This is a far cry from the previous stance on Kostka...

I (frank)ing wish. That will never happen, and Nonis will get ripped to shreds for picking another defensemen, but holy (frank) could we use him.
