Last year our rookies were our best players. This year I think it's a tad different. I think Dermott and Kapanen will be sent down IMO.

Either way, we'll find out soon enough.

- walshyleafsfan


hopefully we're moving into a new normal. 1-2 jobs available for rookies, but down the lineup. and the jobs need to be earned, not given.

that was a pretty unique year last year.

i think kap is destined to start the year in the ahl, but will be the first call-up for wingers.

Screw you, Walshy.

You've made me so upset that I'm going to write an angry poem in my journal, and then ride home on my ($2000, single speed)second-hand bike and make an awesome vegan dinner.

Thanks

I've wanted one to start a collection for years, had the cash and still the desire after those years to get it so I pulled the trigger!

Funny you mention getting an old gold watch from your dad - my mother just gave me one of my dad's, which was her father's Omega De Ville - I'm going to take it somewhere to be serviced and checked out, but don't know where to go to be honest.

I'm going to take a wild guess that Back Bay or Beacon Hill has a shop or two that can give you an opinion on a vintage watch.

It's probably next to the shop where you can get your caviar spoon polished.

Lots of people are better than Martin. He's a mess deensively and a drain offensively.

Until we have a couple of giant tough d-men on the team, hard to play a game without one belligerent type - when sh!t like Dotchin is in the NHL.

There is no 45 gallon container of KY Bixy. You know better.

55 gallon drum at the local BJ's

Hard not to see, Rychel sticking around as well, unless they move him - can't see the Leafs just letting him go for nothing.
- winsix


i think they keep him. he has a unique power forward skill set. though, in a odd salary cap twist, if rosen/brogman make it, then i think rychel is gone.

i'd rather sacrifice leivo who just doesn't seem to have a place with babcock.

I bought my kid an Apple 2, - Watch collecting can get addictive and expensive. I like the hand crafted Swiss movements over gadgets.
- winsix

Yea, the most exciting thing for me about the 3 is that the 2 is gonna drop to my price range soon

Patek watches are legendary - I don't have a wristwatch, but I have a nice old pocket watch by them.

sounds classy

don't you know that polishing it scrapes off the protective layer and gives your endangered virgin albino beluga eggs a metallic taste?

It needs to be cleaned in an ultrasound machine, in a suspension of himalayan sea salts and gold leaf.

Haha.

These cyclists are taking over the roads. What about us motorists? Don't we get a say?

I swear down the world only has about a million people in it. I'm just seeing the same guys over and over again.

If I could go back in time I'd plough money into the Lumberjack shirt industry. (frank) Facebook

You live in PEI,,,, you are seeing the same people over and over again...

That is correct, hard to dump Martin when a guy like Dotchin can run Andersen or Matthews at will.

Isn't the fact that these guys are doing/have done these things with polak and Martin here enough proof that these guys don't do a thing to stop it?
