Hockey people need to do both these days, or fall behind.

The problem is the so called hockey fans, and some members of the media, who skip watching the games, then quote advanced stats as the only way to evaluate players.

Yeah. I hate both extremes. It's crazy to me that people totally dismiss the value of the stats, as much as it bothers me when people use only those stats to decide a player's worth.

Like how ten games into the season Travis Moen had one of the top Corsi's of the year and some people were trying to convince me he had 'turned it around'

That's a lot of centers on the leafs, is it?

That's why I sent one to Winnipeg in the EVK deal, have to share the wealth.

Nobody cares about your ideas anymore.

It's all about King Gilmour now.

All hail King Gilmour!

You post that like it happens everyday. A lot of circumstances swung in Dallas' favour for Nill to acquire those players, and even still every G.M. should respect the difficulty of bringing in who he did.

Still its been done.

Ah yes - the EA Sports NHL 2003 trade scenario.

I'll bet Dubas crunched the numbers.

IN '94, if you were the team at the bottom, and there was a faceoff in your end on the left dot, you could pull your goalie at the right time so that he would skate through the faceoff circle and bump the opposing centre just as the puck was dropped so that you would always win the faceoff.

Good times.

Still scouring the planet for that elusive #1 centre, where oh where are thou.

I feel like since nobody has ever seen Kontiola play, we should be projecting him on our 2nd line.

C'mon, Leafs fans - you know you want to!

Well, he got the signing right, and endured the usual sarcastic responses, so I'd say he earned the right to gloat.

I played ball hockey so instead of just thumbs hurting, everything hurts.

You're on a roll today....

Of course, if we do end up with a guy like Evander Kane, our line up could end up being

jvr bosak kessel
kane kadri lupul
booth santorelli clarkson
komarov winnik kontiola/frattin

Phaneuf Gardiner
Rielly Robidas
Granberg Polak

Bernier
Hutchinson

Did your mom call you in when dinner was ready?

I hope you weren't a jerkwad and took your net with you - the polite thing to do is let the game finish, as long as the guys agree to put the net back on your porch when they are done with it.

mochoson just needs to get a little more comfortable here...I'm sure it's coming.

tell me about it.

play for almost 2 hours and my knees and ankles are sore and I'm out breath.
ah good times. almost got nailed in the pill while screening the goalie on friday.

So we give up the most fkn shots in the NHL's history last season, and the answer is to sign an abundance of forwards. But roll with the same defence essentially.

We had this little turd that did that every time he got called in to do homework. Grabbed his net and went home. Had to take turns with attacks on the remaining net.
