I think he got an invite to Team USA because he's one of the top 10-15 American defensemen out there and would excel on large, Olympic ice.

Is that not a fair statement?
- Leeman4Gilmour

Hope you are right. I think he plays American style hockey well. I think he is a huge liability in his own end. I also think he jumps into the play when it's not the right time causes confusion and kills the play. Once in the offensive zone I think he's awesome.

Lol, I'm only here because my wife has one tv and my daughter hijacked the other to watch a movie. I still have to replace the one downstairs which I'm thinking will be tomorrow.

The man of the house losing all tv's to the girls??

I didn't know that happened in society.

There Is only one thing in my house I maintain priority on with the girls.. And that's the tv.

Hope you are right. I think he plays American style hockey well.

I'm really hoping Reimer comes out ready to fight for the job this year and makes Leafs management trade Bernier.

I'm not looking for Bernier to crash and burn, but I'm really pulling for Reimer. Great attitude, home-grown talent, and he has had to work for everything he's ever earned.

Exactly how I feel as well.

I really think its all a preplanned poopshow just to get these boards wound up.

Is it one of those rocking chairs I see in those videos on xhamster with a dildo attached to it? GCHyundai has one.

Mine doesn't have a dildo, but a hot pair of boobs are attached to it with sweet lickable nipples.

Yes I know, I'll enjoy my ban.

Nope. Not at all. You just don't read well.

Speaking of banishment, I don't see Tee Dot in here, is it safe to assume that I'll be joining Tee Dot in the dog house? Tee Dot, I'll bring the beer!!!

Nope. Not at all. You just don't read well.

You literally just said, in this thread, you don't think that Gardiner is good in his own end.

If you know anything about "American" hockey, you'll know that you have to be good in your own end to play it. If you know anything about EU/International style of hockey, you'll know that you have to have good skating ability with the ability to move the puck around.

Pick one, please.

How? I post I like what Bozak brings. People like you go nuts. I post I don't like all of Gardiners game. People go nuts.

Dude seriously.

Dude, seriously. You can't consider Gardiner to be the baseline of American style defense. Look at Seth Jones and Jacob Trouba. Roughly the same age, both nasty in their own end. I can bring up more recent examples if you wish.

Dude, seriously. Learn about hockey.

Because you contradict yourself 24/7, you use the same worthless perspectives of minutes and coaches supposed perspectives to support the same beaten to death argument, and the moment someone disagrees with you.. You turn into a Richard and go on for days about how they can't read.

You come in here every single day and throw out little sarcastic antagonizing gardiner bozak barbs until someone bites, and then you make a riot out of it.

When the flying (frank) did I say Gardiner is the baseline of American hockey? IMO American defensemen are either Jake Gardiner or Mike Komisarek.

Not a chance.

Although I feel like those could use a fresh new look.

It's easy. I find it hilarious that if I dont follow the status quo of Bozak hate and Gardiner love I'm the bumhole. I've stated my case a million times on each but every day people like you jump in on something bc you don't like my opinion on a player.

you dont have an opinion. We'll listen to scouts, coaches and GMs who knows more than you when it comes to Gardiner



Exactly what you say when someone bashes Blowzak.


Owned.

Your opinion is tiresome, and I could care less about it.

The problem with it is how you start the same stupid arguments every day like a white girl wasted teenager looking for drama. You bait the boards. You'll make the same arrogant 5-8 sarcastic comments regarding either until someone bites, and you have your riot. Then you want to throw your hands up and play the victim when push comes to shove.

It's tiresome. Shut up and stop starting poop over bozak and gardiner. For the love of god.

- honesthockey

It has nothing to do wth your opinion itself. Its:
a) the snide remarks about how people can't read, don't know hockey, etc
And b) that your reasoning behind your opinions are flawed and contradictive

Well the Toronto Maple Leaf organization will have Tyler Bozak & Jake Gardiner in their lineup organization. So I guess your right & the Leaf organization with Nonis, his assitant staff, Carlyle, the assistant coaches & all the Leaf scouts well I guess they are all just plain stupid right?

Mabie you should send a letter to new boss Tim & tell him everything u hate about the Leafs & that u can do a better job than Nonis. Mabie you can replace Nonis? But please give me an advance warning, if u become Leafs GM, I will root for another team.
