Never gotten banned, what do you have to do? and do you get warned?

Yes you will be warned on Leaf blogs, might not on other blogs, if you have no history or little history of bans, then you will definitely get a warning here.

Kulemin - McClement - Frattin
Komarov - Steckel - Brown

Solid bottom 6. I could see Orr there (I know) is Komarov doesn't work out. The only thing I dislike is the fact we don't have a "Joey Crabb" this year. Someone that is usually a AHL'er, that suprises and sticks on the team.

Hamilton or D'Amigo might fill that void if needed.

I'm sure if they got pissed at that coming from a Leafs fan, they'd be even more appreciative of it coming from a Bs fan.

Right?

Essentially, Carlyle prefers to use a matchup line with low scoring to matchup against the top lines, and from all indications, he wants to use McClement. IMO, that means he'll likely play with a guy like Kulemin.

That frees up Kessel and Grabo's lines for offensive situations which should "up" their numbers.

Right, so shutdown role goes from the 2nd line to the 3rd line, while improving the defensive abilities of our top line at the expense of our 2nd line, which is fine by me.

lol, I would get those pm's even though I wasn't around or gave them out, I got blamed no matter what!

How's it going today? Never asked if the holiday was all you wanted it to be.

Are expectations to make the playoffs this year? Or finish around 9th or 10th? As for your bottom 6, it does seem pretty solid from what I know.

Lupul Grabovski Kessel
JVR Kadri MacArthur

How could I go about becoming a blogger?... it would drive Howard nuts.
- Betelgeuse

for starters.. when asked why you want to blog, dont say "to drive a moderator nuts" as a reason

Lupul Grabovski Kessel
JVR Kadri MacArthur

Kadri as center? I know he's trying, but he's gotta get some meat on those bones. You see him over JVR?

Edit: Seems like a solid top 6

No idea. I don't get banned. So you're asking the wrong person.

Great, I would take out the paddle boat and cruise the lake, nice and peaceful, except for the loud loons that would patrol the lake at times. lol. Man they are so frickin' loud.

Got over the hump with work, so it is now settling down.

My point (which everyone sadly skipped because I exceeded the 100 word limit that's required for the ADD kids on here) was that instead of trying guys like Kadri and JVR as the top line center (when Carlyle never said where he'd try JVR), move Grabovski to the top line, and more realistically fill the 2nd line with the centers we have now, whether that be Connolly, Kadri, JVR, or Bozak.

I have given up with expectations with the Leafs, come what may is now my mantra, lol.

Please do, I want to see it.

Cause I hate Grabovski with Kessel.

The article says natural center, I know he was a center in jr. but is he really a natural center? I've only ever seen him play wing so I don't know.
