speaking of wedgies, anyone ever notice how Rafael Nadal picks his shorts out of his ass cheeks after every point?

if he had the cap space, absolutely.

I don't think he'll even be a leaf by the end of this year. More than willing to acknowledge that statement is a long shot, but that's my guess. I don't think we need him for part of our long term plans.

Vancouver should trade the Sedin sisters for the Williams brothers.

he doesnt

and no.. nonis has a price and he said he had the room to fit both of them in.. that means he sees franson as i do.. 2 and change.. not much more

yeah.. its the term that i think is the sticking point.. my guess is franson will do it for a year but nonis wants two.

we shall see.

6yrs $32 million

edit** i am obviously joking..

for me, the shorter the term the lesser the offer. as i said, i believe franson was probably looking for something 3.5+ and term... which they obviously cant do... so i would agree with dozzer's assessment of 2 and change for 1 yr for last yrs 2nd pairing dman.

There are some PMD's in development who should be close for sure, so I could see that, but I wouldn't mind seeing what Franson could do this year. Franson needs to understand that he needs to play and he has zero leverage on a max capped team. Sitting will do Franson little good.

We don't need more steroids in the NHL.

No, but the Canucks need more testosterone, so it might actually be a fair trade.

was just looking at capgeek, and noticed that Jake Gardiner's AHL salary last year was only 65000. since it was a half season he only would have got 38000. plus a little bit more for the 12 NHL games he played. so he likely only got paid 45-50K before taxes and agent fees etc. ouch.

Edit: not sure what his performance bonuses were, but since he only played limited regular season games, I doubt he hit them.

2nd edit: sorry those 12 NHL games likely earned him 128,000. so not as bad as it first looked.

That might be overkill though. Maybe just get rid of the Sedins and bring in Cristiane (Cyborg) Santos instead of Serena Williams.

weird how the guy who gets paid to run the leafs agrees with the 2 hmmmmmmmm


- Dozzer

Not for sure, maybe he just forgot to leave room for Franson, you know all excited after he landed Clarkson

I could do that if I really wanted, but it would have to be a mix of my wife and cheap hookers.
