What about taking down half of it, and leaving half?
- Atomic Wedgie


Id rather just take it all down....the dogs will surely do their business enough times on the deck to irritate me im sure.

I differ with your opinion. They have not improved over last years team. All the teams around them have improve expedentially. Leafs went into last season without a number one centre and a proven starting goaltender. One year later, neither hole has been addressed.
- JohnnyReb

The summer isn't over.
They need goaltending for sure. They could get by without a 1# center.

noticed when I got my permit it was illegal to burn pressure treated wood.

New it was not adviseable, but didn't know there was a bi-law against it...

- Big_Lightnin

If you dig deep enough there's a bi-law against everything.

I remember my history teacher telling me there is a law in Ajax about how you can't drag a dead horse down Bayley (a street) on Sundays.

It will be about $1200 for the slab, not including the removal of the deck.
you'd be better to patio stone rather than concrete, no only is stone nicer, it usually last longer, wont crack and its much cheaper to replace if you decide to change your yard in the future.

open air burning is not permitted unless such burning is used to cook food on a grill or a barbecue and is restricted to a small, confined fire that is supervised at all times.

Islanders, Sabres, Jets, Devils

yes... Devils...

- Big_Lightnin

The Islanders have drafted top 5 for many years now. Many of their prospects, like Niederider are ready for primetime. They have a legit number 1 centre, in Tavares. Mark Streit will also be healthy, starting this season. They've also added depth, in Brad Boyes and toughness, with Matt Carkner. I would trade the Leafs roster, for the Islanders roster, any day of the week.

Sabres had an off year, with allot of injuries and an issue with chemestry. They still have top notch goaltending, an up and coming first line centre in Cody Hodgson. They will be a much tougher team to play against, with players like Steve Ott.

The Jets have more stable goaltending, added some pieces like Olli Jokenin. They've also reunited Alexei Ponikarovsky with former Leafs linemate Nik Antopov. Al Montoya will back up Ondrej Pavelec in goal.

New Jersey may have stepped back, from the team that won the Eastern Conference Championship, but although they lost Zack Parise, they also have developed Adam Henrique into a top line, clutch performer. They still have Ilya Kovalchuk.

How can you say that the Leafs roster matches up with any of these above teams?

They haven't even come close to doing that...think about this for a second...How desperate do you have to be to think "Geee, I really need some goaltending, I should call Philly for help"

Bobrovski has proven nothing, he had an absolutely terrible season last year and now he's off to man the pipes for a significantly worse team.

If the leafs traded for Bobrovski and said your exact sentance, your reply would've looked something like this:

i think a dead hooker or a shooter tutor would be an upgrade over Mason. wouldn't say they've solved their goaltending problem but Bob is definitely an upgrade.

Like I said...they haven't fixed their goaltending issue at all. He's an upgrade, but even Toskala is an upgrade over Mason.
