Only 86 kids last night....damn cold and rain kept the little monsters, goblins, and super hero's away.

We used to get close to 100. Last night we had 9. Neighborhood is getting too old I guess.

Shame the rest of him isn't...

He's had some pretty flukey injuries. I feel bad for the guy after he went through that blood infection, sounds like that was a nightmare. And it sounds like he does all the right things to prevent that back issue reccurring, and it hasn't, but then he has these chance injuries. If a guy wasn't rehabbing hard and kept hurting the same thing it's on him but with Lupes it seems like he deserves some better luck.

Pathetic, we should have traded him for Buffalo's 1st on Thursday.

What a (frank)ing joke....

Unbelieveable actually, it's Karma for looking at himself in the mirror too much.

To all those trolls who say Kessel doesn't make his line mates better.

Winnik tonight 1g 2a. Prior to tonight 3 helpers in 9 games.
Kadri 1g 1a. Prior to tonight, 2g 0a in 9 games.

Of course the best so far is bozak with 4g 6a in 10 games.

Kessel himself with 6g 7a in 10 games. Despite being "fat".

Imagine if he wasn't fat

Bernier should be back in tonight

Back to back and Chicago

Leafs recall Carrick and demote Percy.

Do you think Nylander will step into the top 6 next year? 3rd line dosnt make sense for him really because of the style of play. I fully expect Lievo or/and Connor Brown in the bottom 6 next year.
- Santo_44

Not sure …just don't rush him. I don't expect anything out of Brown …Leivo might be ready to get in though.

Maybe Frattin sits. He was awful ….again.

If it were nice, I'm sure we would have had over 200. Some excellent all out displays this year, but only a couple houses had adult treats because it was so miserable. If the weather looks to be crap next year, I think I'll get the coffee machines out, some paper cups with lids and a bottle of Baileys and Amarula for the parents.

Did anyone catch when they zoomed in with about a minute left in the second, after jvr got clipped with a high stick ..... They had a mic turned on close.

I'm pretty sure boll said to phaneuf- everyone hates you

And I think phaneuf said- haven't heard that one before.

Anyone else hear this?
- bryant

Ya haha.

Boll said " you're such a loser. No wonder everyone hates hates you"

have to send somebody down to,recall a forward, and frattin nit waiver exempt, so they'd have to wait for him to clear to recall someone else.

faster to send Percy down

surprized they didn't recall Leivo instead though. He had made the team before hurting his,foot

- The Law

I hope so. Can't believe he kept playing over Ashton. Like he could have been any worse.

Too bad about Percy, but yay for Carrick. I like that guy. And maybe it is to replace Flattin. One could hope.

This makes it all make sense.
That's a lot of thinking for a Saturday morning. Kudos.

Maybe Carick can bring more defense and energy than frattin. Useless.

Frattin is waiver exempt...not technically, but rather talent wise.

I had zero expectations of him when they got him again cuz he couldn't crack a lineup elsewhere...looks like there was a reason he couldn't. Experiment over...move on.

And, Carrick has something we all like...a hockey head.

Why are we worried about losing frattin? No big loss if he doesn't clear

- Woderwick

Yup. He doesn't look like the same player he was before surgery. He's not skating, he's not hitting, he's not shooting.

I would bet Reimer
- Garnie

nothing like giving your supposed starter the easy game against an inured blue jackets team and putting your backup to face the hawks. only carlyle coaching can do this

who are they playing tonight? i hear carrik got called up. about time this kid plays with heart.
