He even missed a couple, that had some beautiful stick work to them.

Imagine if head some better wingers flanking him. I think they really have to consider switching him and Bozak. It would be a defensively liable line though. Kessel's been a turnover machine the last few games.

Franson for either Bailey or KO...take your pick...

I'ma quote my good friend Habby on this:

"You know who was amazing for 19 games? Pierre Dagenais".

This being said, he's having a great season no doubt about it.
- Scabeh

He has to prove it all year but I have seen enough for me, that he is on his way to being a good NHL player. I still could be wrong though, lol

Bozak is Kessel's BCFL

How many errand behind the back no look passes can I guy send before you realize he isn't your number 1?

seriously?
this is almost as stupid as not making sure your fax machine works before trying to trade Antropov for Lecavalier.

and Hoglund for....who was it on Boston?

It is clear, RFA's signed halfway through a season don't pass through waivers. If he accepts an offer sheet it's as though he was a UFA and all foreign UFA's signed during a season need to pass waivers to enter the league.
- AdamFrench

Not true. Doesn't have to do with offer sheeting an RFa or signing a UFa, has to do with whether that player had been signed to a contract and played in another league that season, so you can't hide players in Europe and bring them in later in the year (Don't ask me about Radulov, still don't get how that was allowed). RFA or UFA who aren't playing in another league and under another contract don't have to pass through waivers.

My take on it, he will start to try and force feed every pass to Kessel and not try what he did last night, my opinion.
- LeafMan

sigh, this might be true, bozak with/without Phil is two different players. Who can forget Bozak's first goal? In fact, I love most of Bozak's goals......those are like the only times he makes the right offensive play.

Sorry, missed word 'foreign' in your original post. Is true. My bad.

Leave Kadri where he is and replace his wingers when Lupul and Frattin get healthy. Done.

JVR-Bozak-Kessel
Lupul-Kadri-Frattin
Kulimen-Grabo-Macarthur
Brown-Orr-Mcclement-Steckel-Mclaren-Komarov

Wait... Can we trade 6 fourth liners for a legit 1st line center?

Credit to him for his effort though.
I know how people feel about trade speculation but Colorado is starving for D and we need one of their #1 centers.

What's it take to get Statsny in the best jersey in all of sports.

- JIMI-JAMES

silly old wives tale that the Leafs were gonna trade Boyes, Kaberle, Antropov for Lecavalier but the deal stalled due to a fax machine not working properly.
When they went to consumate the trade a second time the Tampa owner refused to allow it.....
apparently it must have been the same fax machine the Flyers used in the NYR trade.
