no you didnt

it's true I didn't

No probably not, but what does that have to do with what you said? What would make you think the Leafs wouldn't have made the playoffs if the season continued?
- MapleLeafs90

I never said they would have missed.
But it's not impossible that they could have missed.

See the difference?

They were headed for the 18 wheeler leaf special by the looks of it.

probably their abysmal advanced statistics, mediocre defence and decade-long pattern of aggressive awfulness throughout 82-game seasons

And they havent done anything important since 1967. They should probably just never play again cause history is against them.

.....the worst guy in this whole (frank)ing thing is kessel with that stick work of his. (frank)in maggoty move. i have lost a ton of respect for him.

The worst guy from the league's perspective was Rolston, that's why they came down on him so unexpectedly harsh.

A clear message has now been sent to all coaches that the leagues meal tickets are out of bounds when it comes to this kind of monkey business.

I wouldn't want to be the next coach who tries it.

I think Ek needs to get the straight jacket ready for Barff. His blogs are just getting too delusional and he's now in a war of words with some of the Toronto radio stations. His morning blog was picked up by Leafs Lunch, on TSN Radio, after he did a hatchet job. Without mentioning names, the TSN guys decided not to say what the site was, but those in the know, knew exactly who they where talking about. Barff needs to go for some kind of mental evaluation done, for real!

Why doesn't he just borrow Eks jacket?

Yep. Problem is, the NHL respects the players more (assets) than the players themselves do.

If the trade involves Colorado, it will be Liles. They are short-handed and thin on D with the injury to R. Wilson and both Roy and Sakic know Liles from his previous stint with the Avs. The Leafs will likely take a player back with a lower salary who they can bury in the minors with less of a cap hit the almost $3 Million still on the books if they buried Liles.

Colborne could be Edmonton bound, with RNH and Gagner out, they need a healthy body at C and Dallas Eakins knows Colborne from the Marlies.

I still believe the Leafs are not trading Franson.

Trying to think of a Liles + package where we end up with Downie.

Great exposure for garf...not for the right reason but in his case, he will take ANY kind of publicity. The more people click on his blogs...the more $ he gets.

really??
- scotch_tape

I am a courier, by trade, and listen to TSN Radio, for allot of my routes. I couldn't believe what I was hearing from Jeff O'Neil on there, at lunch time. Him and the host where actually mocking what Barff was saying and said that it was on a well known hockey blog site and it was foolishly insane. When I got home and read his morning blog, it all came together. It truly is delusional.

That's true, but the coach still ultimately has a choice of whether to dress the player, whether to give him shifts, and whether to place him opposite a meal ticket with orders to rip that ticket in half.

Any Sabre fans in here?



Am I a ref yet?
