So it goes Giroux > Bernie > Bob ??? (looking at your screen-name.....)

Pretty soft effort tonight, from a lot of guys. Shows what can happen when you have a lineup that is short on meanness.
- FlyerGuy

The moral of the story?

Don't scratch Rinaldo. His energy is off the charts, and his self control has been exceptional lately.

I hate to say Scrabble should view the game from the press box, but he's the only other viable option at this point...

You can have all the meanness in the World, if they continue to have poor puck management, and let guys in behind them defensively. It doesn't matter. Nothing to do with meanness out there.

Carter for Kaberle

JvR for Schenn

If it were only that simple. If that is all it will take I dont understand why the Homer hasnt made that offer/deal.
- stveshdy

I think they want Harry Z and a 2nd.

But make it somebody besides Gleason. There's other defensemen out there. They don't have to trade JvR

meanness is definitely a factor. They're missing it big time on the blue line, and a bit from the forwards as well.

They dont have to trade any player if they dont want to. I think Homer at some point will add another defenseman to this team, will just have to wait to see who it is for.

I wouldn't give up Harry Z and a 2nd for 25 games of Gleason.

20 mins...


20 mins of awesome hockey to get this man his first you know what that shall not be named.

Not at all a factor. Nothing to do with this game. Just some new term you've coined.

I like the lineup with Rinaldo in it better than this one. Nothing against Harry Z.

Hey is jvr playing in the second?

Ready to fess up your agenda?

He drew a penalty, that should've been 4.


Dude give it a rest.

Depends if they can sign Gleason.

yes, it does. It would help with the energy and tenacity.

- stveshdy

Well that would depend on how he performed. That's a big variable. I think Harry Z can be more than a 4th line energy guy.

If JvR for Luke Schenn does actually happen, they better have another deal in the works to replace JvR. It just doesn't make sense to me to move JvR for Schenn.

so toronto covets jvr thats mean we got the upper hand here if they openly are saying they covet him

yes, it does. It would help with the energy and tenacity.
- FlyerGuy

Yea, the can skate around with a grimace on their face and look "mean"!. That'll get it done.

I think we know who to blame now when the Isles score

Don't be silly. It makes no difference if guys play like cream puffs, or play with grit and snarl.
