I hear you, Frenchie.

Used to be a nice mid-curve (5 lie).

Then it went to some weird toe-curve model.

Toe Curve's where it's at baby.

Ovie doesn't need a back hand and neither do I!

Grabo uses Easton's, so I'm guessing he just switched

My Left Handed Kovulchuk Warrior blade is EXACTLY the curve he uses.

Guess backhands aren't your forte.

My first thought was actually that Grabo didn't know who Mirtle was and thought he was a stick rep

Actually pretty good backhand even with the toe curve (post above about Ovie not withstanding...)

EDIT: and I was more making fun of fact that Kovi shoots R, and mine's a L, hence no way it's his curve...

You should see the CCM Ovie sticks at Pro Hockey Life. They actually sell his real curve, and it's ridiculous. Looks like a Hai Lai scoop

@mirtleJames Mirtle

Best I can tell, Grabovski got a new shipment of Easton sticks he isn't very happy with. That's the brand he normally uses.


....... i think i like your reasoning better lol

I'm not worried the sky is falling. But I am pissed of in the manner that we are losing these games.

It's one thing to lip-synch - but don't ever pretend you can play a saxophone when you can't.

Caution: some Leafs fans may find the following images disturbing.

Very disturbing.

Quality writing and acting by those kids. I wonder if they thought of playing the NHL? Or perhaps witnessed young kids wanting to play in the NHL?

Armdog out?

I didn't watch much of Saturday night's game due to the little Wedgies (was cursing them at the time, but I guess I'm grateful now).

Did Armstrong play poorly?

More poorly than everyone else?

that ain't as bad as the Habs........ they have what something like 14 million tied up in two players and all they have to show for it is one goal from one player and zero playing time from the other

OUCH

McLennan on TSN1050 brought up a good point.

Said the Oilers game opened up some bad habits, being allowed to freewheel.

Thoughts?

yeah, gomez's contract is absurd.. markov would be deserving of his is he was playing i believe.. but since he is LTIR he doesnt count against their cap

so their big money is either playing or off the books right now (like the leafs, cash flow is not a problem for the habs)

the leafs however, have it sitting as healthy scratches, counting against the cap, and not even making it into the games.

And the two healthy scratched (Komi, Armstrong) are both the Alternate Captains.
