someone should contact feschuk's mother and ask if he was a needy child
- jimi james

I found 3 anonymous sources willing to confirm he was indeed, very needy and about 15lbs overweight.

i wish the leafs would go after johansen. send them kadri + for johansen. Johansen is 6'3 223 lbs, almost the same size as getzlaf, who people compare him to.

The Feschuk story should be a non-story imo. I've heard stories like this one too many times to even care, dating back to some pretty good team's in the 70s. In the end, if the coach is truly displeased with a player and their buy in towards a system, they simply bench them. Seriously, who the (frank) cares.

They aren't going to trade him over a contract dispute, when really they hold all the cards. And I wouldn't be happy if the Leafs paid him 6M based on one decent season.

I think Reimer makes our chances better with a backup.

I don't know, Tokarski looked pretty solid for them. He was no Price, but he stood up to some major pressure already, and he's simply won wherever he's played. I think the chances are pretty even.

We'll hear all the rumours this season about Johanson, especially on the site. The reality is, he's going nowhere.

What are the chances he sits out the year like his agent's other client, Turris, did?

Not likely, but he's demanding contract term at gets him out of Columbus ASAP. This isn't about money. They are offering him tons of money. He wants out of Columbus.

It's called an Eller isn't it? Or is that 4 posts in a row?

Kessel for Johansen. It's settled.

I think pretty good.

The earliest he could get moved is at the deadline.

no he's demanding contract terms that offer him leverage in the near term. it's all about money. why would he want out of Columbus for any reason other than money? low-pressure market, decent place, up and coming team...

I couldn't remember. Whatever it is it's my point - I sacrificed myself and took a hit to get you that 3rd post in a row.

Decent place? You ever been to Ohio?

Sounds to me he's buying the hype of being Ryan Getzlaf 2.0.

I remember a certain Oiler's poster (iggy?) laughing at me last season when I said he was like a younger Getzlaf, I think he said something along the lines of "just because he torches the Leafs doesn't make him a great player."

I appreciate it. I think.

Great place for football games. And its very green. I've got no issues with that State, only a stones throw from Kentucky and Tennessee.

Maybe the only problem with it is it's too close to Michigan Though Northern Michigan is beautiful.

Jesus, 3 posts again. I'm going to shut up now.....(frank), I just did 4. Now I pulled an Eller. Ban me quick before I pull a Clarkson.

Just so we're clear... You think that's a good thing, right?

Nashville is a great city, the rest of Tennessee is half a rung above virginia on the gene pool scale

Nashville, Memphis are great party towns. Lots of poop to do.
Amazing roads for the motorcycle. Scenic caves. Kentucky has the best horses on the planet. And tons of big breasted women.

I'm guessing Texas is more to your liking?

I'm kidding BL. But seriously, I had a great time in Tennessee and Kentucky.

(frank) no

My concern is the people, and I'm in the other end if the scale.

But my original point was Columbus Ohio, and certainly Cleveland, do not offer much of interest for a 22 yr old millionaire
