I think it seemed to be a general concensus that Kostka should sit out more than Fraser. Although he had a bad game too. But he isnt consistantly poopty like Kostka.

That's true, didn't even think of Kostka...

an elbow to the head? if they suspended lupul for his hit on hedman then they better damn well suspend ference for that.

also, ference has been suspended before.. not a new thing for him

Did you see the post game interview? What an twit.

says a Bruin fan....oh I do remember a bunch of Bruins fans laughing at avs fans when they got O'Byrne for Cohen.......I took note of that, and when I heard he was coming to the leafs I wasn't very pleased. lol. Of course you want the pylon to play, it'll be 6-1 Bruins insted of 4-1.
- mykokes

I thought O'Byrne played well toward the end of the year.

Hey All!

Been lurking for a while... figured this was as good a place to commiserate with fellow leaf fans.

Saw a lot of panic from the boys last night with all their give-aways and failed clearing attempts. Bad line changes to boot. I feel we'll see a little more bravery and discipline form this team on Sat.

Also... hopefully more skill.
- TripMcNealy

agreed.. shake it off.. realize they cant afford to hold back and go at them next game

welcome btw.

I may be an a-hole here... I am trying not to be but I AM SO GLAD another Canadian city finally sees that the league treats Boston differently than other teams. When Vancouver got screwed over, there was no outcry from other Canadian cities who thought the Canucks somehow deserved it.


BUT MOST IMPORTANTLY ------------------>>>>>>>>> What the hell is up with Ek's video player? Did he get an offer for a free pizza and sold out to this marketing company?
- Beatle_john

if its against the canucks it shouldnt be a suspension

That's true, didn't even think of Kostka...
- RickJames77

I wish I didn't have to think about Kostka

We are tough, Bruins are tougher... therefore we need to play to our strength's... our speed.

In: Frattin, Hamilton, Gardiner

Out: Orr, McClaren, Kostka

FYI: only Leafs win against Boston this season Gardiner was plus 2 with 20+ minute of ice time, while Hamilton and Frattin both collected an assist and were plus 1 and plus 2 respectively.

In the shootout loss a couple of nights later Gardiner set up a beauty for Lupul.

So the leafs are only tough when facing a smaller weaker opponent, but when they go up against someone tougher, then it is time to run scared?

Typical Bullies.

no, was at the bar with some buddies

what did he say?

Boston does not get respect. They get sympathy.

Grabcokski dove, he also deserves a hit to the head every once in awhile.

no, was at the bar with some buddies

what did he say?
- Dozzer

He completely denied the play existed. He acted all confused and said he had no idea what anyone was talking about. Multiple times he smiled, looked at the camera and said there was no play, no elbow... nothing.

That's true, didn't even think of Kostka...
- RickJames77

Oh Leprachauns. He was awful. I seriously don't even think he's good enough to be a Marlie

Is that actually what you read there or was it just the usual weak troll attempt?

- Oilhab

no he didnt.... he isnt a hab anymore

- Oilhab

Yes he does, seems to make him play better. Especially since he needs all the help he can get after getting sick from eating a smurf.

It's a spin on what he wrote.

Did you see the post game interview? What an twit.
- Beatle_john

Ya he did the same - I didn't know what I did - dance when he ran buddies head through the glass and when he checked another guy from behind. Maybe in his own mind he's a clean player?

at least own up to it and say "if" i did hit him in the head it was unintentional

sorry.. i dont like ference.. i think he's a bit of a tool

He is like a blue heeler, kick him in the head and jumps up and comes back for more.

Well except last night when he was trying to draw a more severe penalty

Someone on the last page mentioned they thought when Rask played the puck that it was outside of the trapezoid. Curious as to what you saw. I thought he played in front of the red line then let it slide through the are he can't play the puck until it went in the trapezoid, then played it in the trapezoid. Did I miss something?

So do you, but then again it might make an improvement

no he didnt.... he isnt a hab anymore
- Dozzer

If anyone would know an embelishment when he sees one it is a habs fan MIRITE?

Projected Lines as per Ice Chips....

Forwards:

van Riemsdyk - Bozak - Kessel
Lupul - Grabovski - Kulemin
MacArthur - Kadri - Frattin
Komarov - McClement - Orr

So do you, but then again it might make an improvement
