Those 2 D cores are NOT comparable.

Not in the slightest.
- Lee Denault

So Carl Gunnarson could play top pairing on a lot of NHL teams?

Really?

And in your opinion.

What is Dion?

Shiit since he hooked up with what's her name..

don't worry Lupe's is taking care of that poop

I only noticed a few players making their way to centre ice and then being steered away, again, I don't care about the salute, this is about the character of this core, they have none, imo.

I'd argue the team is being united by this idiocy and as a result character is emerging. Good on them for not feeling the need to "salute" a bunch of entitled jerks that have disrespected their logo. That's a big deal to a hockey player. I applaud them, and would moreso had they said "yeah, we did snub them - they deserve it".

No, probably not.

But

I can ask the same question for Dion.

And in your opinion.

Top pairing offense first d man, which is why using as the defensive guy is stupid.

If we had the Calgary Dion...

We have a Captain we could be proud of.

God Bless Leafs Nation.

We are now lamenting the loss of Karl Gunnarsson.

We disagree to the millionth percentile.

No point in going forward from here.

Polak has been a blessing.

I'd do that trade over again for sure.

Yes, because the 18,800 people who pay the most of any fans in the league all tossed their jerseys - every game.

What's that? The number of jerseys that have hit the ice can be counted on one hand?

Crazy!

Weird how he averages 15:22 in ice time then.
- Atomic Wedgie

What the average split of times for pairing in the NHL?

If we had the Calgary Dion...

We have a Captain we could be proud of.
- Lee Denault

Very similar to when Darcy Tucker and Tie Domi got "civilized" and were goal scorers instead of shift-disturbers. Tucker was useless without the crazy eyes, and Dion needs to play with edge to be effective.

We have a Captain we could be proud of.

His game has gone straight down since she came into his life, she mellowed him out. Made him soft. I want the Pissed off Dion, or let him go..

Again, this is fascinating. I am reading on Twitter about a "silent revolt". after the next game, no matter the win or loss, fans will just leave the building. They just want "to shake things up a little."
- Beatle_john

Aah, the average Leafs Fan Twitter account. Re-tweeted by Jonas Sieglel by any chance? Sounds legit

I used to have a remote control car that could go forwards, backwards and turn left only. It was my Carl Gunnerson and I loved it!

Change the coach at the same time as moving Phaneuf.... a journeyman bottom pairing D would fill in just fine.
- Mr_Smokey

im not opposed to any change for the team, if they get better because of it im all for it.

how can you applaud someone for snubbing you? you're a die hard fan of the team and live and die with them. so they snub you, and you say thank you?

- Lee Denault

He's been very good for us but the retaining salary is piss off, I imagine it had to do with Gunner going for surgery though.

Let's get one thing perfectly straight, Leafsman:

I grabbed a frozen lunch out of the freezer today because I didn't have enough bread to make me and the kids sandwiches.

Stupid lunch was something like 190 calories - and I just ripped off 10k on the treadmill.

So don't come at me with your "let's be logical" or "Wedgie, tone it down" or "Quit sending my wife pictures of you in your Speedo" - I'm still hungry, and that's making me angry.

Got it, tough guy?

We also hate other leaf fans so it works for us.

- Atomic Wedgie

Just takes one. I don't care how much anyone pays - no one is forcing them to go. I'm also not blaming the players for being pissed off it's happening. I'm not making excuses for them - I'm just saying good on them for not feeling the need to kiss a$$ with a fake stick salute.

If pissed Dion comes back. We've got a captain.

The guy that broke two panes of glass in the same period. I want that Dion.
