Nothing wrong ice....people whine that you water it down.

For me...I hate warm drinks...I use ice to cool it down a bit.

- Fakepartofme


You can also grab some of those whiskey stones if you want to cool it without watering it down any

What do these guys have against ICE..

Yup.. glass full of ice, then add whiskey until glass is full. Perfect drink.

Other than Red wine..

Has to be more coming back than just straight up dude. 60 point wingers aren't common anymore.

Good D aren't cheap....not getting a good d by trading away 3rd/4th liners. IMO

I'm just throwing names from Ana because they are in need of scoring and 4th line C with AV being suspended. Maybe we could get Lindholm...anyways...they are a good trading partner again it seems.

yes...pretty sure if they sent they separately they could a little better...but who knows...I could be wrong.

Would you trade Kadri and Gardiner for Nylander and a 1st?

- Garnie



looks like a good trade for the leafs......they get 3 good players and a pick

in my opinion, water ruins the taste of good whisky unless it's cask strength

or unless I'm mixing up an old fashioned... in which case the whiskey probably isn't that good.

Nah. The teams needs an established dman...not another prospect.
Specially for JVR.
Need quality NHL experience.

- Fakepartofme

If jvr was on the block,I'd imagine that the asking price would be a 1st , b d prospect and player? Or a second A defenseman prospect +,so many variables, money retained and mid or late first, I'd prefer to keep him but who knows? My guess they take some 2017 contracts back for picks at the trade deadline

No more retaining any salary.
Bad enough what the leafs did with Kessel.
In a few years, the leafs will need all the cap space they can get.
JVR should bring back a top 4 dman easily.

First I have not dont any looking into any of the Anaheim D other than Lindholm

Theodore is 21 and Manson 24. Manson I assume is probably more along in the development process. Has 3x the NHL games, but still not many 150ish

If we are trading a proven top line winger in JVR, I would only really want Lindholm at this point. but he would cost more than JVR alone

Ugh, don't tell me I need to put on my Ugs and drive out there in my Fiat 500 to school you on girly drinks

i think he doesn't need schooling cause he knows how to spell that girly drink, must mean he knows how to order it also..

meh...he's only 24....2 years younger then Kadri with more points, plus Barrie is only 25...I don't think Av's would do that trade at all.

I think the Av's would be overpaying for Nylander and a 1st in a weak draft..especially when we make the playoffs.

Stainless steel cubes. The actual stone ones don't work very well.

Sometimes a splash of good water is ok. It can bring out the subtler accents in the whiskey. Just a splash though. Myself Im steel cubes all the way.

That's why I threw in Smith.

But maybe the Goat might do it?

What does the top bolded mean?
