Good news Lucas !!!


Itll be interesting to see what they do with greening and mihalek. Do they keep them to insulate the young guys and send guys that are likely ready back to the Marlies or do that waive em and play the likes of brown?
- burn

my hopes/thoughts:

greening - AHL
michalek - pending no injuries in camp - play him - if nobody gets hurt and Marner and co. look like they are good to go - buy him out.

Personally, I don't care if we short shift a players career if it means we are playing a rookie that is ready to play and could be part of the future.

If guys are not ready, start them in the AHL and let Milan get some playing time (try to move him for a pick)

I'd be fine with one of Michalek or Lupul sticking around, and hoping they regain their form.

In fact, a Lupul-Bozak-Marner line facing 3rd-tier opposition could be just what the Dr. (lums) ordered!

the dinner they deserve:

Come on, you should splurge a little, how about a nice chicken in a can complete with cheap Russian beer?

Yah, its Wednesday! Great news that HB will be worth reading on Monday, Wednesday and Friday. Congratulations Lucas!

Guess it might be more difficult coming up with 3 beauties a week vs 1.

Look forward to your articles.

The big question is Lupul - i really don't know what's going on there..

Locked in Lou's basement.



And when I say "Locked", I mean drunk, high and with mustard smeared on his face....

Yeah, real cone of silence around that guy. It's a weird situation

But Michalek, when on his game, can be effective. He just hasn't been on his game for a couple seasons

In a full season he should have NP putting up 40+ points..

Try French's Ketchup. It's great.

Really? And forsake Heinz after all these years?

Can't buyout michalek. Buyout period passed already and if they don't get to arb with marincin then they don't get the 2nd buyout window.


Also lupul is looming. Is he healthy? Where do they play him?

French's goes down smoother.

Milan will have to play or be extra forward in presser in that case.

Lupul is a total ? at this point...even Lou you can't get a read on what his thoughts/plan is. Pretty odd, reminds me a bit of the Robidas scenario last season.

Heinz has the squeeze bottles too, but they are every bit as tedious.

Squeeze too lightly and nothing happens, apply a bit more pressure and BOOOM your food is drowning in ketchup. There is no middle ground

If it goes down the same way, I can't say I'll mind a whole lot

When you play the game of condimenting your foods, you either win...or die. There is no middle ground.

Waive him


Lou said in April "I'm not sure lupul will play next year"

"The Ottawa Senators have signed restricted free agent Mike Hoffman to a four-year, $20.75 million deal" ... As per tsn

Leafs fans are worrying too much about Lupul.

He'll be a good 2nd line forward...until he gets hurt.

so everyone just chillax.

Awesome news, Lucas! Great read as well.

Is that in tandem with MiB or will he still be blogging every day?
