50-55 pt guy, nothing wrong with that. But being drafted 5th overall and having the hype he had, people thought he'd be an 80pt guy

He'll probably have a couple big seasons, same as Couturier like Carter/Richards did, but that won't happen until guys like Laughton and....man, Samuel Morin? anyways, not until that team gets good again.

Good question, I'd say fight for it, but Reimer would have no chance against Knuckles.
- peddy-93


don't know about that ... I could imagine there's some pent up anger in Opi... he might just be able to lay a good ole farm boy whoopin' on the "little french guy trying to steal his job"?

He was ranked the #1 prospect at one point....extremely overrated....Frederik Gauthier will be just as good, which is where Schenn should have been picked in the draft.

Yeah, Gauthier was a safe pick, I kind of wanted to take a flyer on Shinkaruk though

cough

Draft day I'll give you it, but the number of times I had to tell UG that Kadri's development was on par with Schenns was too numerous to count, let alone that Kadri looked to have a higher upside.

- mykokes


not pickin' on you but using UG as a reference point/sounding board doesn't make the argument defendable.

but above a__hole comment aside ... Kadri had more upside - no question.

btw... when does "he that shall not be name" or the "dark lord" return?

Have you seen how dysfunctional that team is? Hell even Giroux can't get off the snide. And I'd never question Giroux as a hockey player.

Does anybody want to talk sustainability for this team? I mean in terms of keeping our key players, and even our role players locked down if this team proves itself this year.
It's going to be a tough year to sign all our free agents for starters, whose walking?

There were many more, here and abroad...whenever the words Kadri and bust were uttered, I was there! Whenever talk was that we should move Kadri, i was there. The Nazmanian Devil won me over very early.

The dark lord was supposed to return Dec. 13, 2013 or something.....but now I can't even see his account when I PM him.

hate to say it but move kuli

he'll be too expensive as a UFA and the leafs have proven they can still do rather well without him.

Kuli is the type of player you trade at the deadline.. solid player.. has some offense.. but will simply cost too much for his role moving forward

Who gets the start saturday? I think Reimer lack of rebound control, although better of late, will expose him against the skill of the canuck forwards. I say bernier and yes I know Reimer got a shutout last game.

The Dark Lord and his alias are no longer users on this site, so for whoever asked, we won't see him back unless he finds a new account. That's what it looks like to me anyways.
