I was just thinking, (rare moment), Hockey Canada selected Reilly over Dion.

No Olympics, no World cup, no Stanley Cup, yeah, he sucks.

No no....it was his partners

We could they have traded Bernier?

I thought the new motto in here was "in Lou we Trust" then I see guys this morning still chirping about the fans that wanted Kessel gone.

Go Leafs Go

I don't know what you said there, but i think the could have traded him before they signed him to that contract.
He did play half decent the first couple of years.
But then again maybe every GM sees him the way i do, the second coming of Raycroft.

Lot of conspiracy theories and crazy talk in here tonight. I'll try to provide a little good news from some grade 8 kids.

Backstory my son had a birth defect that was supposed to prevent him from ever walking. He had a surgery done before he was born that allows him to walk and run. He doesn't do either well but he's a trooper and has the heart of a lion.

Today was track and field day at the public school and when I got home he was wearing a first place ribbon proud as a freaking peacock. He got it from the 100 yard dash and he was fully aware that the other kids purposely sandbagged it so he could win as he over heard them whispering. I asked him if it bothered him that they let him win his response was, if they think enough of me to let me win a race I'll think enough of them to wear this proudly.

When it was presented I guess he got a standing O. Pretty cool group of kids.

Wicked, cool story. brought a couple tears on.

Of course I knew what you meant that's why I explained when I thought they could have traded him.

I like your son's response. Very mature.

And oh yeah, Bozak sucks and JVR was just as, if not even more, heartless.
Bernier just thought he was entitled.

Crocodiles in Dark Waters is the name of a show I just turned on.....



1st thing they show is 2 guys in scuba gear at night

That just restored my faith in humanity after a crappy day. Thank you.

How many games? And now the lucky (frank)er gets to attack playing 3rd line and pp with Sid and Geno.
- Garnie

Can we please stop with this absurd 3rd line winger crap?

He's 2nd in toi/g for Pittsburgh forwards in the playoffs, and 5th in estoi/g.

He's the leading scorer on the team. The notion that opposition coaches aren't aware of this when matchine lines is redonkulous.

- the_eye

Well JVR won't be getting $8m either

Berniers got 1 yr left and he's going to play great

Bozak and Kessel on the 3rd line and Phil making 6 and we are groovin

So apparently in basketball it's a foul to get run over by a freight train.

Imagine Bozak feeding Kessel?

Oh wait, Bozak as his chef and butler for years.
- Atomic Wedgie

seriously, you think one guy alone could feed him?

I don't know what you said there, but i think the could have traded him before they signed him to that contract.

- the_eye

Exactly. Bernier is/was untradeable. I imagine Bozak was as well (gotta think they've tried). JVR will most likely be traded in the future. That's why they had to trade Phil. Plus, I don't want to imagine what a 30 year old Phil would look like

Well JVR won't be getting $8m either

Berniers got 1 yr left and he's going to play great

They just have to be trying to find a way to dump those 3 clowns, at least I hope they are.

You're crazy if you think they are keying on Phils line and not Sid and Malkin

Plus he gets pp time with both of them....Kessels a great player....just making it a little easier for him IMO
