Just waiting for the Russell signing and watch everyone in here doing back flips like they are Donald Trump trying to re-explain what he said 24 hours earlier as everyone's opinion suddenly changes.

Considering Russell's poor underlying numbers I can't see how the Leafs would be interested in him. I guess if Dubas had a lobotomy, and the advanced stats department had a fire and the computers were destroyed, and Shanny and Lou both drank a 40 ouncer of Rye and called Russell's agent...otherwise...hell no.

Russsell for back up goalie
- DDM-Coga


Well, he probably blocked more shots than Bernier last year, so there's that.

... but I will admit that I am happy that Leaf's fans no longer look at D-men instead of just their names (*ahem*, Phaneuf)

So apparently Melania may have first entered the United States illegally.

At first glance, this looks like nothing but a smear campaign - not really a lot of evidence to prove anything.

But with how the Trumpster went on and on about Obama's birth certificate, this is going to be a very tasty dish.

You reap what you sow, Donald.

Best check your facts before making this comment. It was Hillary that first started the birther movement, vs Barack in 2008. Trump later picked up on it.

The Marancin and Corrado contracts might as well be considered 2-way contracts.
- Atomic Wedgie

How do you figure? What a dumb comment
Carrado didn't clear waivers last year. Which is how we got him. And we didn't send him down all year just so we didn't lose him
Marincin was on our top pairing last year and we traded assets to get him
I doubt either get exposed to waivers.

"Trump said that Clinton started the birther movement and "was all in."

It’s an interesting bit of history that the birther movement appears to have begun with Democrats supporting Clinton and opposing Obama. But Trump, and others who have made this claim, neglect to mention that there is no direct tie to Clinton or her 2008 campaign.

The story appears to have started with supporters of Clinton, an important distinction."
