You're a guy who can clearly get by on his looks alone, but adding in the brains makes it unfair for the rest of us. But can you do one of these write ups but using Quick and Bernier? As if that trade just happened. How close were those 2? I'm jaded as (frank) obviously with the Leafs and their goalies. Granted it was Lou who traded for Bernier, still...I'm curious.

Unpossible.

That's what nhl.com says.

It's my ban dodger, implying we have some sort of secret friendship and it's not really an insult but a friendly tease.

50% of the time, it works everytime.

Hopefully my flagging of the comment does the trick.

I guess the pick turned into Dermott and Bracco
- TheMussel

And Dzierkals

3 long shots that have upside. I'm OK with it

Sobotka was pretty good in both leagues..

I DONT KNOW LET ME DREAM DAMMIT!!!
- Tanooki

At least there's really no risk here for the Leafs. If he's really good then perfect. If not.. meh. Only cost them money, no big deal.

Well we don't..
- bixll

I never said it had to be real.

I do?

Pretty sure I'm trying my best to be objective.

I'll try harder.
- Scabeh

i dont mind you at all..

you're kind alike how i am in other threads, but when i do it they all flag me immediately and the ban symbol get shone up in the night sky above Dozzer and Leafman 1 bedroom apartments..

Which Rougeau brother are you?

Bernier barely played at all. That's the main difference. He was even more unproven.

I like Lou and all. He's a fantastic GM. But he needs to get with the times and not let stubbornness steer his job. It's 2016 Lou not 1999

CAn't even fake it.

Thanks brah. I'm actually hanging around here because it talks way more about hockey than anywhere else.

Dozzer and I get along, he knows I mean no harm.

Andersen


- Lucas.Neilson

That's what I don't understand. Why do people always talk about him being a backup? He was clearly their starter

They had to make a choice and went with the younger option. He's not a cast-off.

Bernier was a backup when he was signed, and continued to play as such. Andersen has been the guy before

I like Lou and all. He's a fantastic GM. But he needs to get with the times and not let stubbornness steer his job. It's 2016 Lou not 1999

Dubas is getting him signed up for pokemon as we speak

- Santo_44

There is zero basis in fact for the line of thinking that Lou's "stubbornness" is what is holding up the Matthews contract.

Speculation and the desperate need for a story in mid-July is all it is

If i were Matthews i wouldnt budge..

He owes nothing to the Leafs yet.

- WingmanWillie

It's widely speculated. And I believe it. Some of his rules are just really unnecessary. It's pretty simple. Give him max everything he's the number 1 pick that's what they get

- WingmanWillie

The most games he played in one season is 54, two years ago. I guess at that point you could say he was "the guy" at that point for the Ducks.

Last year he started a little less games (43) and was working more of a tandem with Gibson.

This being said, I never saw him as a backup at all.

Nah,

Lou is being Lou..

He is very oldschool.

- daeth

More unproven then who? Andersen? (frank) it. Like I said, just pretty jaded.

- Santo_44

Bet you Edmonton loves that they gave Yakupov max everything. Hey, whatever, he's a number 1 pick. They get whatever they want.

Come on.

The media wants to rile up the fan base and it's clearly working with some of you.

Come October when Matthews suits up, we'll all be wondering why the hell we bothered.

If i were Matthews i wouldnt budge..

- Tanooki

I'm on Mathews side 100 percent. I read an article that Lou got mad that Liepsic got a one on one interview on hockey night in Canada. He doesn't think rookies deserve the spotlight.

It's a a league where a 19 year old can come in and be a top 10 player in the league now.

I'd ask for a trade and refuse to report like Chad Kilger

The most games he played in one season is 54, two years ago. I guess at that point you could say he was "the guy" at that point for the Ducks.

Last year he started a little less games (43) and was working more of a tandem with Gibson.

- Scabeh

started another 16 (w11-L5) that year in the playoffs. 70 games started is decent
