Healthy scratch (again) for today's game.

Wish rumours could swirl around this news, unfortunately there is a better and shorter explanation.

Sweet Jeezus Don't start that up again Wick...

Ashton for L. Schenn.

Using Nylander here isn't fair. If you asked me in the midst of that thread with all the Nylander shots in it yesterday, it would take me 7 minutes to confirm that I have a wife.

I'll take it. Wait a sec...how much does Luke make?

100% correct. You won't see many 1st round picks (2015) traded this season.
- bloatedmosquito

well not in the top 14 ish

Let's call a spade a spade here... I'm pretty sure its unanimous that the Leafs are the most hated team in alllll of the NHL, let alone just Canada.
- TheThrill

certainly the most hated in Canada but the Leafs are pretty irrelevant to fans outside of Canada.

good point. Luke can stay where he is playing wing for the Flyers from the pressbox.

- TheThrill

Why?

Robidas is at least playing.

What do you mean by irrelevant? Like fans not talking about them kinda thing?

I'm guessing the Flyers would at least be on the ballot.

Pfffft. This was taken minutes ago from the streets of Ferguson, Missouri.

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

THIS IS A GREAT IDEA

Maybe he can Lindros out of that situation.

Is there another team in the league that is less deserving of McDavid than Edmonton? Not a chance.

Plus if they did draft him they'd still sh!t the bed and be drafting top 5 in 2016..... they're a perpetual loser.

yeah... the main reason for the hate in Canada is the overblown national media coverage. Americans don't have to deal with it really. so to them, the Leafs are just another middle of the pack team.

I'm pretty sure that if the LA Kings win their 3rd Cup in 4 years they would be less deserving of McDavid than the Oilers.

Not by my definition... They drafted smart, traded smart, hired the right coach and stuck with their GM....

The draft needs to stop rewarding horrible teams like Edmonton year after year, it's a broken system.

No no...I promise.

And then you go do that

What's a better way to give poopty teams a chance to get better again?

if they don't decide to get serious about goaltending and putting together a real defence, then i don't see any reason why they won't be drafting top 5 again in 2016.

Gotcha. Yeah I agree. Probably only Buffalo, Rangers and maybe Flyers give a poop. Oh and that Dan Spiegel chap who used to/still ? blog for the Panthers. Had a wierd thing about Leafs fans

Why?

Robidas is at least playing.

I'm not!
