Uh no. Your idea of seeing if a guy is an NHL player is giving him 2 games.


My idea of seeing him a guy is an NHL player is actually giving him time to learn the systems, get adjusted and get used to the NHL. Like Jake Gardiner did.


Imagine if the Leafs only gave Gardiner 2 games to show what he's worth? Holy poop..

koke's idea of giving him 2 is certainly better than giving him 0.

You win the internet....I'm moving on.

Wasnt hard when someone contradicts themself and basically proves my point for me.


Successful players, were given a shot. aka, more than 2 (frank)ing games


Im out. You're annoying. Peace out mother (frank)ers

Kokes idea of giving him 2 to prove himself is extremely dumb, and a player needs more than 2 games to prove himself.

So, If yo want to give him a chance, than give Brennan a chance to prove himself. A real chance, not just 2 games.

Okay guys stop the insults, you're both stupid,

Colin Dambrauskas: Is Phil Kessel Finally "That" Player?

Are you finally "That" Blogger?

[quote=jack_oat67]Lots of Kessel love in the replies... I'm not one that joins the group though.

Phil is good. Phil has an awesome shot. Phil is still one dimentional.

It's funny, one of the commentors mentioned that:
I, on the other hand, believe that Phil has 2 moves when he starts taking it up the wing. Either he pulls up along the boards just over the blue line and waits for the trailer to come down the middle to pass the puck off to or he takes a wrist shot from outside of the face-off circle. He doesn't have the guts to take it to the net and every defenseman knows it.


Meaning he is so awesome he can score this much with only 2 moves that everyone knows he is going to make
- jribout

If I was hitting against Roy Halladay in his prime, I would know the split finger is coming in waist high and breaking down to my knees. Still would go 0 for 5

If I played tennis against Federer, I would know the inside out forehand was coming to my backhand. Not a damn thing I can do about it.

Kessel will keep going with the same moves until they don't work.

I don't know.

I guess I am unconvinced that any winger can be a "franchise player."

Although I guess we would have to agree on the definition of that.

How about Jagr on the Caps? Kovalchuk on the Thrashers? Iginla on the Flames? I could probably think of some more if I started trying....
