well Hall's outscoring the leafs roster. Don't worry, after the leafs beat the record for most consecutive years out of the playoffs, they'll get a few #1s.

no matter how bad the leafs do, the #1 spot is always reserved for edmonton. 3 years in a row, must be a record right?

please bud.

Kostka is an AHL D man at best, yet could've cracked TO's top 4 when he was 11. TO's best D man, Gardiner cant even stick in the NHL.

If TO has any NHL quality D men, why were they 29th in GA last year?

- TheNugeIsHuge

Systems.

Under Carlyle, the leafs have drastically improved their defensive play. And guys like Kostka, Fraser, and Holzer have fit in quite nicely. But I wouldn't expect someone who probably hasn't seen 1 leaf game this year to know that.

The funny part about this is, that an Edmonton fan is talking smack about another team's defence.

so...an "AHL D man at best" has a higher +/- than any oiler forward or dman?

it's so easy to destroy people in arguments here. what ever happened to the fans who actually knew what they were talking about?

gardiner cant even stick in the nhl? LOL dude he was coming off an injury and he was sent down to get back in shape. no point rushing him when the leafs are doing well.

i guess you're just used to any player who can hold a stick being allowed to play defense for the oilers

damn it's so easy to own you, nice try though.

Justin Schultz will be a ppg player...

He's already proven by his performances in the ahl....

I'm not sure those guys are yard sale quality. I may pick one up if they were at a swap meet.

as i just pointed out, TO had 2nd worst D to EDM's 8th worst. Now that's not a large margin, but in an attempt to help that, even a little bit, they signed highly touted Justin Schultz. It will only help slightly, but To's only attempt to fix their D was by sending Gardiner down and calling up career AHLers.

I've watched 3 leafs games this year (yes, not a lot) but what I've seen is kostka can move the puck, but he and Phaneuf are sloppy as all hell in their end.

At least EDM looks for improvement and can be patient through rough patches. TO just trades their future for players like Kessel, and then want to run Kessel out of town after a rough start.

Also, it's 12 games leafs fans, don't get your playoff boners just yet.

Now, continue to dance for me puppets

you're saying you know what you're talking about yet you're using +- as an argument point?

bahahaha

What makes this post funny is that...

Kostka > any Edmonton defender.

And that's not saying much.

- Pen15


As ridiculous as some Oiler fans are about overvaluing our players are you actually going to say that Kostka is better than Justin Schultz? Really? That makes you look just as blind.

you mean...

at least edmonton sucks so bad that they always get the highest pick, because there is no other nhl team that is worse than them.

"patient through rough patches"...it's a rough patch when it's a couple of bad weeks in a season....NOT THREE FULL SEASONS OF BEING THE WORST TEAM AHAHAHAHAH

damn i'm on fire. it's too easy to make fun of this kid who knows nothing about hockey ahahahahahah

Yardsale is correct. Maybe 4 or 5 slot or injury relief but none would improve anyone.

Holy Smokes Accoin? He was in Vancouver in 1994. But that though your heads a little bit.


The Lion King, The Santa Clause and Dumb and Dumber were all in theatres when he played for the Canucks.

You know very little.

Edmonton in 2 Veterans and a Goalie away from a cup run.

Toronto has nice jerseys and easy to find parking.

Two very different worlds.
