Ya WTF...

I picked him before I realized intangibles didnt count in Fantasy Hockey

easy
out play someone like Polak who is meh
- senstroll

Yeah, that won't happen.

They didnt trade for Polak (Who has looked solid, and plays PK) to sit in the pressbox..

I see a bunch of people are happy with Orr & McLaren being sent/waived.
- zazzle

I saw a comment in the Star (don't know if it is true or not) that McLaren didn't play in any exhibition games.

Can anyone confirm this?

Good morning, my Leafy friends.

He thought he was worth 6
- jbold

maybe just his agent thought that.

good

no need to play an 18 year old at this level

that would be flat out dumb
- Dozzer

EZ there Dozzer, there have been plenty of 18 yr old who have made it.
Nathan MacKinnon comes to mind as one recently.

if need be, he will be there for slashing/roughing/tripping anyways
- Garnie

True...

- senstroll

now you don't like Polak either?

I think he's FRASER+++

suspensions and water bottle protection minutes are the through the roof....nobody will touch him in those to stats!
- BlowMonkey

Solid, solid pick then, and suspensions...I see it now.

OMG Thank you Leafs for doing something right for the first time in for-(frank)ing-ever!
- BlowMonkey

since the draft its been smart roster moves.. or right around the Dubas hiring

- Atomic Wedgie

I think I saw him in 1 at least

edit: he fought Stortini

Nylander no Mackinnon....Not even close..

+ they still have Clarkson and Ashton to block fist with there face if needed..
- Fruitcakenipple

how many more broken noses can this guy take?

That's not a fair comparison though. Age is the only similarity there.

Good morning Wedginald.

- Fruitcakenipple

Not comparing them, just pointing out that 18 yr old have made it to the NHL and saying that playing an 18 yr old flat out dumb is a dumb statement.

Percy as the 7th D sucks.

How can someone develop when sitting in the pressbox?
- jbold

trade franson, percy>

Nylander no Mackinnon....Not even close..
- Fruitcakenipple

MacKinnon is close to a generational player imo.

Good morning Wedginald.
- Woderwick

Wedginald?

If you're going to give me a hockey nickname, you really need to stick with the protocol:

First syllable of last name, and then add -zie or -zer.

Wedgzie isn't great, so we should go with Wedger.

Yeah, that won't happen.

They didnt trade for Polak (Who has looked solid, and plays PK) to sit in the pressbox..
- jbold

Nonis traded for Polak
the new manag. hires would not have made that trade.

everything changes the second Shan hired Dubas.. the 2 years of bad moves by Nonis is over..and if Percy plays better than Polak he should get time over him.

now will randy be able to identify that..who knows...but he will be gone soon

So Ek says Dion is on the Ducks radar. I know higlhy unlikely but just for fun, who would we want back from the Ducks? Vatenan

He will be in NA full time next season,let his body develop a bit more in a less physical league

- top shelf 15

wont happen

MacKinnon is close to a generational player imo.
- Woderwick

I wouldn't throw that term at him just yet. Generational players today.. I can really only say Crosby is it.
