ok downie and who else o'brien .....

I mentioned this earlier...maybe Mcleod...not sure if Bordeleau is playing or not. They have a pretty tough team.

Dont care what happens to Gardiner. As long as he's in the NHL November 1st so HonestHoebag cant post here anymore
- jbold

it's Dec 1st unless he changed it.

Speculation turns into full blown rumour.

That sums it up.

Anyone can.

If it rains, conservative votes suffer, because old people (who skew conservative) don't like to go out in the rain.

That's what you meant, right?

In Nova Scotia it rained and was windy till 1 pm today now it's sunny and hot So we'll probably all be messed up and re-elect the NDP....... won't be able to watch the results till after the leafs game though

Ranger is going to have a good game. book it.

Do we have enough guys for a healthy scratch?

- Dozzer

It never happened.

It's less to do with his slow start and more the fact that the team is loaded with offensive defensemen and could swap Gardiner for an area of need, like a young tough stay-at-home defenseman or a promising forward.
- mikeinbuffalo

I wonder how he would do as a forward?

It never happened.

Everyone but Yeti reacted to it...damnit! (sorry guys)

have you seen Giroux in real life?

I doubt he tops $1.50

55 points in 50 playoff games.....I think Carlyle would find room for him.






















on the third line.

Maybe they'll give MacWilliam a go? Why don't they play Gardiner with Franson?

My wild guess?

Liles.
- Atomic Wedgie

that is wild

I mentioned after Colbourne was shipped (given away) to Calgary for next to nothing, that Gardiner was next to go (& getting blasted for saying this). Carlyle makes it obvious when he doesn't like a player & that player doesn't stick around much longer.
Aside from this the Leafs have far too many offensive D men, but it is a huge risk to move Gardiner at a young age. I like the suggestion of trying him on wing.
If they weren't in a cap crunch, no thanks to Nonis for this, this wouldn't be a big an issue, but I hope they don't make a desperate trade - then things will go from bad to worse.

I suggested putting Gardiner on the wing last year and was raped harshly for it. So get a tight belt or close your eyes and count to 12.
Personally, I think hed be good on our second line tonight. Ashton in a top 6 role?

I can't wait to read reports tomorrow about how Kadri is slumping.

He's going to play with Bodie and a Coke machine as his wings tonight.

No me neither...but he hasn't been very good so far. Making rookie mistakes out there

Meh 3 games in, i bet he'll be better for the same reason i bet Raynond isn't going to score 50 goals!

I hold by what I said. Ranger will be top 4 by the end of the year. I hope.
