i had high hopes for adam he played amazing at the beginning of the season, what happened?
- matt1337


He is in Ruff's dog house for some reason...

he has been a 4th line winger for the last month or so next to McCormick and Ellis... no wonder his production has fell off... still better than kadri.. but it has fell off

I'd imagine you are surprised by a lot of things, so don't get too worked up about it, k?
- Big_Lightnin


no worries Big Cat.

Kadri will have a long great career and average a whopping 0.85 ppg in the AHL.

Bob McKenzie said there is a good chance the Leafs won't make any 'significant moves'. http://tsn.ca/nhl/story/?id=387102

He did not say they are likely to 'stand pat' and make no moves. Nice spin and then add your daring prediction that they will do 'something'.

i think the biggest difference with grabo has been his kids. made him settle down and really look at what he wanted to do with his life. two summers ago he actually trained with datsyuk and you could see him become more of a threat when he started to take hockey more seriously. i dont know what he did this summer but maybe waiting for the birth of his 2nd child had him focused on other things over hockey, but since his kid was born, he's def played a lot better hockey

Not a big stretch when they haven't competed in one this year.

Maybe they should trade for that SUPASTAR Nazim.

- Big_Lightnin


Oh and by the way....

Myers > Schenn... and they are the same age and Myers has almost 100 NHL games less experience than Schenn and even has better stats in every category.

40 more points in almost 100 less games.. and Myers is +4 all-time vs Schenn at -7 so don't give me Schenn does do offense he has other intangibles

HAHA that is funny. No really look it up on the web site. I have seen it all over this morning. It has something to do with Wiese a pick and some conditionals

i'd say its close between the 2, closer then some fans may like to admit. Kadri could become an 80pt guy in the right environment but right now he isnt been giving the chance since our top 2 lines are too strong. I'd say Adam would be mid 60 pt player. I was expecting adam to reach 40 pts if he stayed playing the way he did at the beginning of the season. unfortunate that ruff put him in the dog house

Loose Lips? I don't even want to know who you just confused me with..

Seeing as how not one single trade rumor is "Phx, Pitt, Det, and Philly are looking for a good defensemen but what would Burke want for Gunner"

I am safe to assume he is just another player blown up by the Toronto media to one of the "amazing depth pieces that Burke has put in place in Toronto"


- MillerTime1130


Assume eh? My point stands.

If it is so clear about providing a little nugget of evidence that supports your analysis.

Myers is an offensive D-man. Schenn is a shut down D-man with a level of intensity and toughness that myers will never have... two different D-types your comparing.

I was just commenting about the Dark Horse thing... Dark Horse refers to someone unexpected to succeed, diamond in the rough. Somewhat applies to Adam being a mid 2nd rounder, but Kadri was 7th overall. He's expected to be a top 6 player and if he isn't he'll be declared a bust. Nothing Dark Horse about him.

Prove me wrong than.... Show me one shred of evidence or anything that says that teams would love to have Gunnar on their team and that he is "sought after"

Or are you just "assuming" that he is sought after..
