Before he was injured they were tied with the Habs at 70 points, and well on their way to the playoffs.

Save your breath - some love to argue and will all day.

Hopefully Reimer bounces back from his poor finish.

But for over $2m for a backup I wouldn't be surprised if he's traded.

Yeah thats a good rate,2 years too,that will look attractive to some teams!

I think Reimer and Franson both look good to other teams now.The Leafs did good.

Apparently people feel he is worth 7mil...no (frank)ing way...oh wait it's the NHL, nevermind.
- AdamFrench


He's a star free agent. You have to overpay wether yi
You like it or not. Your getting a really good player while giving up nothing in return. So you have to give up some sallary instead.

I can't see Reimer playing for the leafs this year. He will be gone. As for Franson I think he will play it out this season and we will make an assessment on wether we keep him at the trade deadline.

So the future franchise player, as some dream he will be, is only an assist man? A rookie defensemen on the leafs had 4 more assists than him last year.

You should have way better things to do at 2:15AM than troll Leafs forums. No one has ever called Gardiner a franchise dman...even his Mom.

Exactly and even if he WAS a franchise d man. What's wrong with an assist man? Kieth gets 3-4 goals a year with 50 assists.

I think he is exaggerating but some people on here have him on 1st pairing - I believe he would be eaten alive against other teams 1st lines, he's horrendous in his own end.

Sorry but there isn't a single injured NHL player that can't/won't play injured if the team needs him. Regardless of doctors orders. A doctor who'd refuse to clear a player would not have any juicy NHL patients/clients if he went against the teams or players wishes.

Starts off slow. Be patient with it. The first book is the shortest of the lot, but stick with it. You'll be part of the "Ka-Tet" in no time.

Another question for my nerd friends here:

I'm thinking of grabbing a PS3 off of kikiji so my daughter ca learn to play guitar using the Rocksmith game.

Anything I need to know about what model of PS3?

How big a hard drive do I need? My kids won't play many games.

Do I need a 2nd generation PS3?

Other than size, any differences between the fat and slim?

Feel free to edumacate me here - I know nothing about them.

Thanks in advance.

Ever read The Black Company by Glenn Cook? Beast first book, solid 2 others, the rest kind of rollercoasters in quality, but the last two (8-9?) are really great as well.

Don't buy a PS3 you (frank) face.


You're welcome.

It only gets better with each book. So many stories pieced together to make a magnificent tapestry of magic carpet ride for the mind. And he incorporates characters from some of his other books.

I don't think it will matter which PS3 if you are only going to play a few titles. I'm sure Stee will have some advice - I have an older bigger model I believe ( bought new ) never had any probs

I think I get it...some people only see his offensive abilities and see him as a huge asset. While others (including myself) only see his defensive zone play and see him as a liability.

Kinda like the leafs as a whole, sure they can score, but cant keep the puck out of their own net (unless the goalies play like they did in the first 25 games of the year)

I suggest you don't buy online for a few reasons... too many strings of robberies and murders when meeting up lately to purchase. Also, don't buy used as elecronics like that since most snot-nosed teens abuse the (frank) out of them... The drive could be (frank)ed, the laser could be on it's last legs, could be covered in dust inside, etc. Better you buy brand new since they are cheap now that the PS4 is out.

Generations and gigs are irrelevant since your kids only play a few games and all models need a current system software update anyways so feel free to buy the cheapest new PS3 you can find.

Hope this helps.

I wouldn't cast him off but he needs to be played in the right spots - pp - 4 on 4 but I don't believe he will ever be a 1st pairing at least not until he puts some weight on

Get the man some ROIDS
