I'm the one who brought up grabo in the first place, I know what the point was.

no problem

lets just buyout all of our 50-60 pt players because they go through a rough patch.

so were left with kessel, now were in great shape. but we got lots of cap space!

I never asked for this crown. Gold is cold and heavy on the head, but so long as I am the king of the Augello Thread, I have a duty … If I must sacrifice one poster to the flames to save a million from the dark … Sacrifice … is never easy, Lou. Or it is no true sacrifice.

Meh, I liked Grabbo, Kuli and Mac, but they're interchangeable supporting cast. Look at Chicago, they jettison quality guys all the time, they don't give a (frank). Worrying about Grabbo is like grieving the loss of Sergei Berezin.

i guess thats true, we didnt spend 3 draft picks to put bolland in for 20 games so we could lose him the next season.

dammit man, take a step back for a second.

I brought up Grabo in the shortened season to show how looking at stats only doesn't give you a good sense of reality.

Stats were good, play wasn't.

That's it. that's all I was saying.

Nobody wants to hurt Grabo. It's ok. Put the gun down.

I shall bring justice to HBeros. Every man shall reap what he has sown, from the highest lord to the lowest gutter rat. And some will lose more than the tips off their fingers, I promise you. They have made my kingdom bleed, and I do not forget that.

A 20 year old barely a PPG in the OHL who disappeared in the playoffs. Yes a grinder then.

Right?

- AdamFrench




17 goals on the PP top 6 forward. Nope.

I seriously seem to doubt you've ever watched any hockey besides the nhl..

good thing you put "next" in your sentence cause you'd be the one on a time out.

It's ok. You misunderstood the initial point, got upset that somebody dared question the great grabo, and threw a tantrum.

I forgive you.

My mistake for not checking if you were in the thread before mentioning his name.

I agree. I felt all 3 were also much more useful under Wilson. Once Carlyle came; they were replaceable.

I was arguing he was our main shut-down guy, and doing a good job all things considered.

That doesn't mean he was good overall.

...though I may have gone overboard, because, well, dopps.

Nylander said today he doesn't prefer centre or wing. Might be able to play in NHL sooner as a winger and Leafs have hole on right side.

The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the iniquities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil posters. Blessed is he who, in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of HB darkness. For he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know I am the moderator when I lay my vengeance upon you.

It never did us that much good. I'd rather develop a better one. Besides, Grabbo can't eat a pineapple without poopting himself, Mac is little whiny crybaby who wants the coach to put appie juice in his baba, and Kuli is nothing but Grabbo's personal (frank) female dog.
