I'm hearing Nino and Nabokov for Luongo
- Boinker

no youre not.

There's plenty of positives, they're in a playoff position despite being one of the youngest teams in the league, missing two top-6 wingers, a top-4 d-man, and their #1 goalie.

Their biggest contributors are their young guys, who have bright futures.

Both goalies are young and doing awesome.

Team finally has an identity, and is playing a great defensive system.


I just reposted that stat, because it seems to have struck a nerve with mr. killian, after a jab about the Leafs' goaltending by a Penguins poster.

Sounds like the team is getting better. Now you'll only have to get rid of Phaneuf's contract. Send him to Philly. Maybe you guys can fleece them once again like you did on the Schenn/Van Riem deal

ok well you can talk when your team wins a cup again...my guess would be that it will be another 46 years...na, they probably still won't win won by then
- Killian

Sure buddy, we'll be seeing u in the Eastern Conference finals.

Taking Nabby wasn't good news for them?
- Ryman

it was good news, in fact it was very good news. just nowhere close to as happy as we are today.

The rumour was that after Domi was fined for this, several teams in the league took up a collection to pay the fine.
- Atomic Wedgie

Wish we had Domi still, could do something about that little poop they've got right now.

lol i guarentee you couldn't describe to the room what you think a p ussy smells like.
- Killian

This makes no sense.

Even if I was a virgin, I could still describe to the room what I thought it smells like.

This is the third post of yours in this thread I've had to correct.

It's sad, really.

Dipietro to the the Leafs for the Isles 1st rnd pick in 2013..........makes sense for the Ilses, seeing as they dont care if they are garbage year after year, and Wang will save a butload of money.......Leafs will then make the playoffes and draft Top 5

Ill drive him to Toronto

You can keep that sieve as far away from Toronto as possible! No thanks!

- Orpik44

Why on earth would we want to get rid of Phaneuf?

Guy's better defensively than he's ever been, and he's been finding the back of the net lately.

i heard boobs feel like bags of sand

So by your logic you believe the islanders are better than the penguins? Cheer for your team all you want; pick a relevent thread if you want to call out the leafs.

The best part is, during the 25 years that there were only 6 teams, the Rangers missed the playoffs like 18 times, and won ONE playoff series (there were only three total, every year). That is a record that is hard to beat. I have to figure that if there were only six teams, and you were one of them, you'd probably have to win the Cup once by accident over that period of time.

is it true that if you dont use it, you lose it?

Well Phaneuf & Luke hate each other so I doubt Dion would have chemistry with the the Schenn bros. Do the math, Luke would have to come back the other way. However, I'll always prefer Dion over Luke & since Kadri is playing better than Brayden, Philly can keep the Schenn bros. Wow never thought I'd be saving that.

i believe this to be true. makes sense right?

You guys have to make up your minds. Most Toronto fans I've talked to said he was playing like crap. Anyway, I guess a few good games makes him the best physical d-man in the league again.

i would be absolutely shocked if anyone actually took DiPietro

arguably the worst contract in the league - at least most of the other decade-long albatrosses actually play most of the time

well, the few you talked to were wrong. Even when he wasn't putting up numbers earlier in the season, he was playing strong defensive hockey. Now he's getting the offense going.

It's a way of buying talent.

You trade for DiPi, buy him out with the compliance buyout so that New York doesn't have to do it.

Only issue is that I'm pretty sure the player being bought out needs to have played a minimum number of games with the team buying them out.

Ah sneaky. I thought he was implying someone would actually trade for DP for the purposes of actually playing him. But yeah somehow that seems totally illegal, or at least it should be.

That would be like the most expensive draft pick ever though.

i could be missing your point, but why does that work for a team thats potentially claiming him?

The theory is this:

Isles trade DiPietro + something really, really good to the Leafs for Komi.

Leafs then buy out DiPietro this summer.

So the trade is essentially Komisarek and $36 million for 1st round pick or Tavares or whatever.

i would think so....killian, is it true?

Because if the Leafs take DiPietro, you have to also give us Tavares or draft picks or whatever.
