Did you guys see the clip of Simmons on the TSN 1050 morning show after Matthews signed? Said there's a real story of Lou caving to a star player and the score is Auston Matthews: 1, Lou Lamoriello: 0.


I sincerely wonder why he's still employed. He's been proven to be a fabricator when it comes to sports news. I'm curious if firing him would be difficult for the Sun, so they just put up with him.

Because people eat his controversy non-stories up. People love to be riled up. He brings viewers whether they are there to agree with him or there to poop all over him.

I suppose it is naive to look at it any other way than this.

It's (frank)ing ridiculous.....

Matthews not signed, media Spouting off that Lou is playing hardball, going to upset the kid. Deal signed in 10mins...... Now th story is Lou caved?

I said it yesterday...... If you don't have a story invent one. No longer do we have "reporters" working hard looking for scoops, checking facts, talking to sources. Now we just have douchebags writing gibberish and making poop up. It's disgusting. The Internet and bloggers aren't the reason for the newspaper downfall, it's the hideous writing of their poopty employees.

Agreed I think Vesey is overhyped but if leafs do sign him for a discount I hope he lives up to it
- figgs1979


No discount. Every team will offer him max ELC with bonuses.

Why not right? I think the only player to ever hit all of their bonuses that was undrafted in the last 10 years was Panarin.

That's right! I don't think Vesey will live up to the hype... just a feeling.

Not needed anymore. Although he will continue to be with us in my location until something stupider is presented. So, he'll be with us for quite some time.

yup. its become about the money.

Thats why CNN talks about Trump all day, because people tune in. Theres only a couple news outlets that still have some form of investigative journalism. The CBC still does a good job and Vice is also an excellent outlet. The SUN is anything but a "news" medium, its strictly entertainment and opinion.

- traded Winnik for a 2nd and Carrick

- traded Polak (and Spaling) for two 2nds

- traded Harrington for Rychel

- traded a 1st (30th) and a 2nd (2017) for Andersen

- got rid of Bernier

- signed Rielly for 6 years with a cap hit of 5m

- signed Kadri for 6 years with a cap hit of 4.5m

- is not the GM of the Nucks


All of this in just a single season. That's not the record of someone who is "over the hill," jealous twit. Now go back to your 0-cup Winning Franchise's own thread, jealous twit.

don't forget that he fleeced the Nucks in the Schneider deal...
