Koma is a 3dr liner.

Martin signing is very burke-esque

I could see the defense staying largely the same with Zaitsev on the top pair.

Corrado and Carrick round out the RD. I don't have a problem rolling with that next season. Better than overpaying for a D like Chiarelli or signing a boat anchor in UFA

- WingmanWillie

Oh yeah I forgot about him. Hoping he turns out as expected. But since it's the leafs he ll probably Paul Ranger himself.

And I have no problem with that.

Now that Stamkos isn't coming here, it's time to stick with the slow and steady plan.

Next year will be painful, but we will at least get to see into the future, as opposed to seeing Boyes and Parenteau giving half-arsed efforts.

When did they say this?
- lumlums


Lou was asked about the interest in a stay at home dman yesterday

and we all know how Lou roles..he doesn't speak much about things.. obv said they aren't "targeting anything" right now, but if something became available, then it's an option.. Said that subliminally.

Didn't shoot it down, but like I said, he keeps quiet on things, and we all know that.

We have to wait and see. But I just don't see us not adding another dman via FA, whether it's Wiz/Schenn/Schultz , whoever.. but from the beginning..the only stay at home guy in that list of 3 is Schenn..and that's where it all started with me bringing his name up. Apologize if it pissed some people off, but just going by what was said in the video.

I mentioned Schenn before the interview/video came out, and that's because I thought that would be a need for us. (and I still stand by that) A Shut down guy, bigger presence on the blue line, someone who blocks shots/hits, isn't scared to stick up for a teammate, character guy, etc.

The technology is here - time to move to an automated caller of balls and strikes.

But yeah, will never happen.

Given that you're advocating the signing of Schenn, then my comment is still valid

So, we're extrapolating from what wasn't said, running it through a blue and white filter, giving it a shiny new coat of paint and seeing what it looks like on the other side...?
