Happy Labor Day..Now..Back to the Q & A
GCHonda Asks… What the EK, why do some illogical Leaf fans rag on Matthews cause he's American. In 13 years I never heard 1 Leaf fan rag on Sundin cause he was from Sweden. What the EK?
Ek: To be honest, I don’t really hear that many Leaf fans caring that he is an American…if they are please email me and point it out..and I will go after them. I don’t think the majority care at all with that kind of talent…and any who do certainly would have been the first to complain if they hadn’t drafted him with the top pick.
Landsbergfan asks…. What the EK.That special Coca Cola you drank on your show once can only be purchased in NJ i guess?
Ek: Nice: It is called by three names… 1. “Take a Boost… 2. “Drink a Toast… 3. or just plain “Toast.… It’s amazing…there is a website to check it out… http://www.takaboost.com
GCHonda again weighs in… Why don't the Toronto grocery stores no longer sell Vanilla coke by the case? What the EK?
Ek: I think the term “Vanilla Coke… is all you need to say…Coke should only be served pure…with real sugar..like the kind you can buy in supermarkets in the big glass bottles shipped in from Mexico…all other coke’s are ridiculous…and I lived through “new Coke… in the 80’s
bcalloway asks… What the Ek, who will start for the Colts in week 1?
Ek:: Scott Tolzien. The once proud Badger.. Formerly of San Fran, Green Bay, San Diego, and a few others…He will make everyone forget about Andrew Luck…..never.
Devils 622 asks… What the Ek is the Devils plan to fix the D? At this point it has to be a trade
Ek: I could see them reaching out to Cody Franson….I don’t see any reason not to…Part of the issue is the system is just geared towards offense and they don’t have many forwards you can trust to be responsible in their own zone…I love the coach though and they will be one of the more exciting teams to watch..really hard to imagine the Devils as a run and gun team!!!
Doogs asks…. What the Ek...do you plan on answering all of the questions this time? I'm still waiting for an answer from the last round!!!
Ek: ask in the comments or email me at eklund at hockeybuzz com and I will try and get back to you…I really appreciate it.
twistedmike asks…. What the Ek? What is your policy on declassification of sources? 10 years? 25? Ek: I will never reveal my sources unless they themselves ask me to…My whole job is built upon that trust. I take it very seriously…unless you personally are willing to fork over a few mil and I will write a tell all book exposing everyone and how the first lockout was ACTUALLY solved….:)
Mashadar asks… What the EK is with that selfie?
Ek: Kids and Family at the shore for a reunion…just wasn’t quite feeling my best when I snapped that picture…
BestRapperAlive… hat the Ek will the Predators do for an encore?
Ek: Yeah, you aint kidding…what a season…I truly believe they weren’t just a fluke…losing Fiala and Johanssen cost them the Cup…They could be back.
AussiePenguin asks… 2 what the Eks; 1. What the EK will happen when the Leafs don't make the playoffs next season? 2. What the EK will happen in the battle of Alberta - bench clearing brawl???
Ek: 1. The Leafs will not only make the playoffs, they could battle for the division with the right moves.. 2. I personally LOVE the way the new battle of Alberta is shaping up…I have a blog coming this week on who the better team will be…It is not easy to decide..
cuchullain asks… What the ek is Vegas doing with all their defencemen?
Ek: McPhee LOVES his d-men and realizes how valuable they can be…I like some of the moves for sure..can;t wait to see Vegas…
Aetherial asks… Hot or Not? Anna Kendrick
Ek: You say a lot of cray things in these here forums...but...Are you insane man? Anna is amazing…great person, so much fun. and a hockeybuzz reader, btw.
IonSabres asks… What the Ek is taking Eichel's contract negotiations so long? Just pay the man $10.25 per and move on.
Ek: You can’t do that yet…he is an amazing player but I can see the hesitation based on such small sample size so far…I think they will wait and get it don’t into the season after he is killing…
corduroy asks: What the Ek --Duchene to Buffalo?
Ek: They are the team who is working the hardest to get him right now…for sure…
TroyTech asks…. What the Ek are the top 10 teams in the NHL as you see the rosters today?
