No salary cap if he goes the ladyboy route.

Whats the award they give out for best line changes?

As in over the boards to join a pre-season fight?

That earns you the coveted Water Bottle.

Understandable, Kessel's not really a significant winger
- Zezel

We weren't only taking about right wing.. I forget about Kessel all the time too... That horn that's always going when he's on the ice is hardly noticable.

He cant help it, someone yelled "pile on" and he thought they yelled 'pylon". It was a very understandable mistake.

If Lucic is gonna run around hammering players smaller than him he's gonna have to answer to someone his size. If he doesn't he'll be less of a threat.
- Arctic_AARDVARK


problem is, there are few players his size who fight and are important enough for him to fight. Orr asks him to and he says no. what happens? nothing. what are the Leafs gonna do, send JVR or Phaneuf after him? i hate the guy as much as anyone but i cannot see any reason for him to fight guys like that. he has nothing to gain.

lmao

yeah it's easy to forget about Kessel, every time he winds up a wrist shot the horn and flashing red lights are a huge distraction

And I'd like to point out that if Lucic is going around legally hitting guys, why should he have to fight?

It's a stupid new "code" in the NHL that need to be drummed out by referees calling instigator penalties.

If you are 5'9" and don't want to get hit, keep your head up.

If Lucic was on the Habs or Leafs, we'd be loving him six ways to Sunday.

@jonasTSN1050: Nylander played centre growing up. Switched to wing when he joined men's league in Sweden. Says he could see himself playing either in NHL.

no (frank)ing doubt. Habs drafted McCarron on the 1% chance he could turn into Lucic (don't worry he won't). those guys are so rare. although Lucic really is stupid and i think that holds him back from being even better.

Brad Marchand though, i can safely say, i would not want on my team in a million years.

It doesn't matter whatsoever if he scores 50 goals a season, if he runs around he'll be challenged to a fight. If he declines they'll keep challenging him until he has no choice. Then he'll eventually fight like he did with Orr and get his ass kicked. Now he's not as scary to the Leafs.

Has anyone applied to be the new Leafs in-house host?

I'm hoping for Bushkorn, of course.
