I buy this. Sure.

Some reason we don't know that the staff sees and we don't. Fine

But let's not start to make assumptions about his play (good or bad) when he hasn't played enough to do so.

Give him a few games to see what he's all about or cut him loose. Sitting him every game is ridiculous when the defense is as bad as it is

- WingmanWillie



Maybe Lou wanted depth and like most teams thought 3 weeks in it would be very possible we had an injury.

I agree we can't make assumptions about his play, but he did play half a season last year. He is not a completely unknown, he will get some games which is good for him.

5444 potholes have been filled over the last two weeks in Toronto.

Making the roads smoother for Corrado's drive to the ACC.


And for the Cup parade.

there's some kind of shady deal going on with the road crews... every year they are working on the 4XX series of highways shutting down lanes overnight, etc... to fill holes, blah blah blah... why can't they do the job properly and have it last a few years?? i'm sure there's some technology out there to ensure the roads don't get ripped up with potholes every single year.

i think those contractors/ companies are using substandard materials and pocketing the difference.

Pretty much, somewhat expected when they take 5 of the best rookies from the team.

I don't think that corrado is being held out of the lineup because of poor practise qualities. I think it's simply that the babs favors the vets polak and hunwick
- burn

Possibly.

But no one knows for sure.

It has been reported (in november) that Babs believes Corrado was not a top 6 dman

There are these big things called Snowplows .... Only fix is to re-surface.

If they do it properly....people wont have jobs the following year.
Biggest thing that happens in Ontario....new roads will either be constructed or expanded. They'll tear up the old road, rebuild the foundation, lay the new pavement etc...then a month later, parts of the same new road will be torn up to lay to new wires, fibre optics, sewage/water pipe etc.
Now, how much cheaper and how much time and inconvenience would have been saved had they planned the two separate projects together?

The snowplows rip up the recently filled in pot holes, which then create even larger potholes.
A beauty continuous cycle.

You know when an NHL and it's AHL team go to their respective conference finals in the same year that the organization has officially rebuilt for the long term....I do not know if that has happened or with which team

It probably is.....but I thought Corrado was decent last season.

Also, if he doesnt think Corrado is a top 6 dman....how the hell does he think Marincin is?

You come from Vancouver not knowing much about things like snowplows, so you make wild assumptions that expose your ignorance.

Now consider how wrong you might be on the "they don't teach the scientific method in India" bullpoop you were spouting yesterday.
