Youngblood is sooooo bad it is good.

Perfectly Normal is also quite good, but a bit out there. Like, a few bus stops past out there.

And Face Off is fun to watch, just to see the old Gardens and cameos by Leafs.

forgot about Face Off... funny that actor (Art Hingle???) who played the Jim McKenney character - was actually better than Jim McKenney.

don't use points - use points per game... and only take face off percentage for select games - when he's good.

and never mentioned that Kessel propped him up.... no one in Pittsburgh will believe you.

I'm drafting up the Bozak for sale post..do I put 3 time almost 50 point scorer or leave that out? So confusing

I plan to trade him for a late 1st..that is basically a 2nd, or an early 2nd that is really a 1st

- senstroll

It wont matter, most dont read your post...but i woukd suggest using "practically a 50 pt"
dont confuse yourself, thats just mean.

I heard the term on TV a couple of years ago.

I also had to look it up on urban dictionary.

Since then, I try to use it at least once a day.

I would rather keep Boak than Kadri. More productive in more areas, and he can play with star players, so at least there's someone to feed Stammer for a while when he gets here. Plus 4.5 million is better than the 5 or 6 Kadri's likely to get...

Depends what The Dream wants. I'd rather him $5 than Bozak myself.

I don't think Pitts is looking for a C?

What will we get back? Something juicy I hope.

I was in the HHOF a few years ago, just before Christmas. They had it in the bargain bin - the DVD and Blu-Ray for $10.

The wife was absolutely thrilled to get it in her stocking.

Uncle Lou and Jr.(Dubas) - who currently carries Lou's tablet and notebook to meetings...

will negotiate 2 first round picks
1) 2019 1st - if the temperature is below 40F on Thanksgiving 2018 - otherwise the Leafs give Pitts their 2nd round choice in 2020
2) 2023 1st - if the temperature at ice level in Las Vegas at the local roller hockey game on January first is below 70F - otherwise the Leafs get Pitts 9th round pick (hint there aren't 9 rounds)..


something like that.

this.

seems always to be the case that people look at the salary dumps as attractive in their own right - they are not.... and history of trades would tell us that GMs view it that way...
in short you have to pay "extra" for a team to take you bad contract.

if the player is overpaid by large amount getting rid of them is difficult. see Phaneuf.

- BorjeFan4Ever


Yep. And Bickell might be the #1 case for this, as Chicago needs cap room and will need it more in the future.

I already answered that...they don't care...HE NEVER SCORED 50 points IN 1 SEASON

.64/gm
.61/gm
.84/gm
.71/gm

4 season of over 50 point pace if he wasn't injured and a 49 point season on top of that

but they don't like the player so it doesn't matter.

- Garnie

Im no bozak fan either but the point is, he will be cheaper then kadri most likely and has produced more or equal....i believe his career ppg might be 0.03 higher or something like that.
People just seem to have a hard on for kadri.
I just said if the right deal came along....move him...we have a cheaper him
