One of the best actors on the planet. Was Mr. Clean in Pulp Fiction - here's a clip.

I never watched Pulp Fiction, so that clip doesn't help. What else was he in? Anything good?

Lot of ridiculous questions here. And incomplete answers , but realistically some of those questions would deserve a full blog to really get into it.

That one about signing prospects was absurd and completely ignores the fact that we have until AFTER the season. Mike nailed that one. Don't worry. We have tons of contract space. TONS.

Well, two spots for players, not really "tons," but I get the sarcasm...

WRT Kadri, I think that he's shown himself to be the best at handling the opposition's top line. and Komarov is a decent guy to go with him. Brown is also a decent guy to go with that pair. As for the top line, JvR is obviously there, and Marner would make a good set-up guy for Bozak, who has a surprisingly high shooting percentage - his lowest was this past year when he no longer had Phil to set him up.

I guess we'll see what happens, can't wait. Also I think MiB was wrong about Holland. He's already cleared waivers, so can start in AHL.

Bad Timing is an all time great movie - highly recommended. Mind blowing stuff. Directed by Nicholas Roeg - also directed Man Who Fell to Earth starring Bowie and Performance starring Jagger.

I believe they signed Martin to ride shotgun with Mathews, we have enough 4th line players for them to sign him for that. Also Kadri is our best center (now), why not give him a chance to succeed?
- Bower


Martin is not playing with Matthews. That's a waste of Matthews talent.

JVR, Matthews, Nylander(scoring line A)
Komarov, Kadri, Brown(faces top opposition)
? , Bozak, Marner(scoring line B)

No such thing as line 1 2 or 3. Just three solid lines being used in different scenarios.

You're confusing me more by dropping more names that I don't know.

holy poop are you on this again! AT THE END OF THE SEASON. Mike even answered about the 4 expiring contracts before we have to sign those players. That makes 6 spots.

Add all the spots coming open at the deadline. Polak(for sure), Hunwick(if he doesn't suck), Bozak(probably) and any of the other vet plugs. That's another 2-4 spots. SO that's 8 to 10 open spots at the end of the season. That's way more than two.

Edit:Martin will be in to protect the young guns. Either way, I think you see some trades coming.

Marner makes the team. No question. Unless he has a bad training camp.
Hyman and sosh will rotate in later in the year.

They'll never have to go to the dirty areas in front of the net because they'll always be in their own zone...

After Tom Wilson lays Marner the (frank) out Martin comes to protect and takes a penalty, Washington scores on the power play? Wilson says hey, I'm gunna do that again?
