Has Strome improved much since his draft year?

Has Strome improved much since his draft year?
- mykokes

never heard of this Strome guy, is he any good

I would say yes or sure....But everyone else will laugh at it, the leafs would have to add several 1sts and a 7th

He's looking more and more like Josh Bailey to me. Probably will be a top 6 forward, might even be a Kadri, but franchise guy, not so sure.

Why the (frank) would we want Strome? wheres he gonna play? Marlies?

I'm telling you...if the Leafs want to outshoot a team they need to bring Jason Blake out of retirement, although you could argue Blakes shots may also be considered a turn over.

I also just learned that the ACC employee registering the opponents shots is 83 years old and is suffering from Parkinsons. He will now record the Leafs shots from here on in - expect a big change in the Leafs play.

You probably aren't far from the truth.

I know I've been beating this drum pretty loudly here, but please contemplate this:

The Leafs have 91 giveaways at home over 4 games. That's 22.75 giveaways per game.

The Leafs have 28 giveaways on the road over 3 games. That's 9.33 giveaways per game.

Anyone who thinks that these stats are meaningful or useful is as dumb as Travis Yost.

FACT: the giveaway statistician at the ACC is using a different standard than what is being used in other buildings.

I know I'm a genius, and very, very good looking (not Lupul good looking, but I'm still stunning), but why am I the only one talking about this?

It was brought up many times Bruce. "Trade Dion and sign Hainsey to take his minutes". Maybe someone with a better memory for names can point the poster/ or posters out....And I know you weren't as extreme as some others, but Hainsey is crap.

To me he's the Matt Stajan of top pairing d-men.
- mykokes

what did he end up signing for? i wouldnt of paid more than a million for him

but yeah.. he's lost his PMD skills and has tried to re-invent himself as a stable defender

Betting my child's college fund on the Leafs tonight, I've got a good feeling

Your not, Doz and I got tired of talking about it. Watch the games is my biggest tip to the stats guys.

What's the difference between a toilet and Miley Cyrus?

Did he fall and can't get up ?

You guys forget... When Carolina comes to town, leafs rarely win.
Sorry boys, Leafs are losing this one tonight.

I have no faith when the hurricanes are at the ACC

Lupul will win that himself.., coast to coast!

like i said.. stats like corsi and fenwick are good for making a list of things to watch for when you are actually watching the game

you see a trend... great.. go investigate it.. dont accept the trend as truth

ok please stop posting this trade idea.

NO!.
- zazzle

really?

i'd prolly make that move.

get younger by dealing from a position of strength for a centre who put up kadri like numbers.

- Fruitcakenipple

I'll give it a shot.

You use toilet paper after you crap in a toilet???

really?

- Dozzer

So whos spot does he take? Kadri, Bozak, Bolland,? or he plays 4th line C?
What Kadri like numbers? oh you mean OHL,,news flash this is the NHL he hasnt put up Kadri like numbers
No thanks its real life not NHL14

Agreed. The problem comes when "analysts" try to predict team ouutcomes from them. You know, get outshot and you lose. Except Leafs get outshot and win --- pretty regularly.

I'll give it a shot.
