more of the world should work that way, glad to see it still exists in some places

bit of a tangent here... did you hear the memorial tree planted for george harrison has died? the cause? beetles.

i am not even joking.

I think they should all let it be. Yesterday, I was thinking the if we would just all come together maybe we could get something done. I know all you really need is love to get things accomplished..

Jesus, they have so many songs you could do this all day.

A lot think Booth will be Raymondesque but better, others don't like Marlie players who have earned the chance being told basically, you have no shot as they keep signing players to one year deals.

Also, haven't heard Jackie Blue song in a long time, catchy tune!

- LeafMan


that is a catchy tune! haha

i was thinking about this over the last couple days actually. i dont know if you can say the kids have earned their spot.

this creates competition... if the kids cant outplay a recently bought out NHL vet.. do they really belong in the NHL?

That's pretty funny - pretty solid 3rd line pick up at a million per but he ain't no top 6
- docmorgan


Ya, I'd be surprised if he cracked the top 6 too...save for injuries. But the nice thing is that you now have an extra player who can (challenge) for the top six, which is always healthy. This, my Leafs friends, is called "depth"




Happy Friday.

Booth holland Frattin/Santorelli is a nice looking 3rd with potential to score a bit.

I'm okay with keeping most of the marlies together in a winning team.

The fact that the other guys got 1-year deals I have no issue with. If everyone got 2-4 yr deals it'd be another story

- Big_Lightnin


Well frattin is 26.. he is not young he doesnt really count imo

Maybe Leivo and Ashton
i dont see the problem. We will also have injures, more NHL depth is good

As far as forwards are concerned, Holland is a given to make the team, and Ashton, Leivo, and Broll could all see time.

Somebody called Booth signing dumb cause it pushes Frattin or Ashton to the press box.

As if that's a bad thing...

Man, you won't believe how unbelievably bad the weather is here in Edmonton today. Its been throwing it down with rain since 9 last night, some hail too.


It's almost like there's a loose sea in the sky with diamonds...

Sometimes it feels like it's cloudy here 8 days a week.

But looking out the window, here comes the sun.

So kessel has a slow camp and Ashton scores 5 goals in preseason, Ashton's on he top line and kessel starts in the press box.

Solid plan

There should be a couple spots up for grabs, and here are. Booth is making $1.1M. Kontiola and santorelli boy making peanuts also. Those guys all will have to earn a spot.

Especially sunny is that we got Komarov back.

I didn't want to see him end up Back in the USSR...

If Ashton outperforms Kessel, waive the bum.

True, but they won't.

Booth didn't earn his $4.25M last year, but he was damn sure better than Ashton and Frattin

If he was making $2.5m he'd still be a Canuck, and they'd be happy about it
