I don't think any of us have won a Cup...
And been 23yrs since Oilers won the Cup...what's your point?
No matter how you look at it 13>5

Good for Gagner for wanting a NTC...
And as Clouts said, as much as Oil fans hate Phaneuf, he would the top pairing d-man the Oilers need.
However, Klefbom, the 7th, or one one of the untouchables would have to be coming to Toronto...he isn't going to be had for spare parts like most offers would suggest.

So the past is forgotten just because its not fair?
Does that mean the Civil war in the US doesn't count because not all 50 states were involved?

No im saying that your 13>5 argument is weak considering all 13 of your cups A) were won in a 6 team league and B) Oilers werent around for.

Was the person saying Nurse compares to Peckham just being racist?

Oh, and when you say you are "not at liberty to explain" the whole Horcoff situation, it sounds like you are legally obligated to keep quiet. Can we cut the crap on that matter? You don't have insider information there.

- Morris


On the first subject, I think you're right, but I wasn't going to write that. It's an accusation and I get enough heat from members of the MSM as it is.

On the second subject, I do have an actual source on the matter...it would become obvious that I do if I got into the specifics of what is occurring. I was asked by the source not to get into specifics in the hopes that the entire situation would work itself out, with both camps calming down and backing away from their current positions.

So that's the Leafs fault?
The team is still on the Cup as NHL Champs 13 times regardless of how you look at it...

The logic doesn't work there. He's saying the past isn't comparable here because the oilers could have won just as many if not more Stanley cup titles had they been a part of the original six.

So under his logic the only way you can compare the two franchises is titles after both have been in the league

Ok well curious...what do you think it would take to get Phaneuf?

That must be why they went out of business. He ate them all

Completely illogical. If I ate them all, the company would be rich. No reason to fold.

They could have, or they may not have as well...
Bruins only have 6 Cups, including one in last couple years...
Hawks only have 5 Cups, including two in last couple years...
Rangers only have 4 Cups...
So there is no guarantee that the Oilers would have that many more Cups...

At least teams would be scared to come into the Leafs zone, cause he literally may kill someone

Well I stand corrected then. I don't necessarily believe you without any possible means of proof, but I shouldn't have told you to cut the crap.

Indeed, what's the point of having sources if you can't pass on anything they say for fear of compromising things? This isn't the first time you've claimed to have knowledge of the specifics but been unable to share it.

A better vice indeed. I hate sweets for the most part too, but I love salty things. Chips, burgers, etc. are going to do me in.

Maybe because the person I speak to doesn't want people to know that he speaks to me?

either way it's very sad neither team has won since 1990. Saying 'we won only 23 years ago' isn't that great a chirp. Better than we have been, but not very good at all.

Consider two people:

Person A wants people to think he has insider information, but does not have any insider information.
He tells people that he has insider information, but that he can't share it for fear of compromising his source

Person B actually has insider information.
He tells people that he has insider information, but that he can't share it for fear of compromising his source

You could be either person, and there's no way of knowing whatsoever. So that's frustrating.

In essence, your claims are not falsifiable. I can't say you're definitely full of crap, but that's not a good thing, actually. What I'm looking for is someone about whom I can say they're definitely NOT full of crap, which is a different thing altogether.

Why is that the only fair comparison?
At the end of the day, what's you point? Losers like yourself continually bring up the Leafs last Cup...why? Cause you can't run your mouth about them not making the playoffs anymore, so might as well go back the oldie but goodie...

- BoBBeR56


2004 was the last time the Leafs actually made the playoffs.

This year didn't count for any team.

Nothing to think through. I like salty foods? Do you really go around worrying about how innocuous sentences like that can be construed?
