I'm just asking a question though, getting barbs about the Sens is expected I suppose but what other team rolls two guys who can't play hockey at all...

Seems bizarre.

It's for nights, when George Parros is sitting in the box with either Orr or MacLaren, then the other one terrorizes the rest of the midget brigade, in Montreal.

They won't both dress 82 games. They'll cycle Orr, McClaren, and possibly Ashton around the 4th line.

To be honest, Orr especially has really improved his game. Never gonna be great with the stick, but he's an effective forechecker now so can help keep guys in their own zone.

A leader certaily doesnt stand around like a pilon and let the other team score 4 goals in 8 minutes, Phaneuf should be gone out of T.O

I see what you did there.

And its all good.

If I was that sensitive about it, I wouldn't have brought it up.

I do wonder why more offer sheets don't get thrown around.

10 years, 90 million for Stamkos and you'd have a franchise player with 60 goal, Hart Trophy candidate upside.

Doughty, Subban... You find guys like that so rarely that the draft picks aren't comparable. How many Doughty or Stamkos types have we drafted in the last 20 years?

How do you know he is a leader? Are you in the dressing room? Great player on the ice for sure, but anyone that is not in the dressing room, doesn't know how much of a leader anyone in the dressing room is.

Can one of you guys tell what having two face punchers in your regular lineup is supposed to acomplish?
- Talkshowhost


Perhaps you could explain what the point is in having two face punchees?

Exactly. One guy in two decades.

And you might be able to make the case that Stamkos will end up being better than Neidermayer, anyway.

YUP if Burkey was around, the Leafs would have Lu & his entire insane cap hit, Penner & we'd have Grabbo for the rest of his career.

The rumor is that his management team came to him with a deal for Luongo (likely involving Kadri) that Gillis would accept.

Burke vetoed it and decided to roll the dice with Reimer/Scrivens.

Doesn't make sense. If MSLE had a hard on to get Lu & Burke said no & this was the reason he got axed, than wouldn't MSLE have hired a "yes man" GM that would have traded for Lu?
