I'm enjoying these trade proposals. I hope they come true so that the Oilers can get robbed and be worse next year!

May as well do. Everyone else does. It's been written in stone for hundreds of years.

A Leafs fan says something at work = Leafs nation all say that thing.

Asking for mercy on non-generalizing to a Leafs fan is akin to asking Phil Kessel to work with Gary Roberts for a summer

- walshyleafsfan

Yeah, that is pretty unfair. But I've been on your threads and explained that the derogatory term 'Leafsfans' as used by Iggysbf and others, applies to specific group of Leafs fans that post here. And I've been courteous enough to list them in the past.

What you have to do is your duty, which is to corral these Leafs fans and correct their stupidity, and have them refrain from spreading their malarkey throughout the realm.

Probably easier to Shepard a couple hundred kittens tho.

it is what it is..........a little over the top, but i have no issue with players being passionate about playing for their country. if a canadian player/team did that to the russians or americans, i'd think it was funny.
- sensarmy_11


It is nice to see some passion in a goalie but I think Iggy is just upset that Lehner attacked Canada.

Be passionate about playing for your country sure. But when its that country and its fans that are paying you and giving you your livelihood I expect at least a bit of respect.

i remember about 3 years ago, there was an oiler fan (he had bill murray as his avatar) who said he wouldn't move sam gagner for erik karlsson because the oil needed centers more than d-men.

- sensarmy_11

Well gagner is Arizona's top center

This is how the thread should be....battling trolls. Instead we get 30 pages Of HA, Sharkboy , Chet and Shooter/YMan talking about....whatever retarded poop they talk about.

Anyways, i think we can all agree that if you are in need of a goalie you have to go to Vancouver. At any given time, they will always have 3 of the top 2 goalies in the NHL.

fair enough.............but to be fair, he wasn't playing in ottawa yet at that point (although he was playing jr's in canada).

i'm sure we've all said and done things in the heat of a sports induced rage, than in hindsight we probably wish we had a do-over for...........in my case, atleast one per period (i had a lot of PIMs this year )

Bah! He doesn't need to win a cup. He needs to stop pucks in spite of the poopty defence. Half the guys on your threads say he sucks,the other half say he's awesome and should get a huge return, but all of you want him gone?

How good is he ? Really?

- Jeropotato


The truth lies somewhere in the middle. Bernier is a good goalies who can stop pucks, he's not poop, he's not top-5 elite.

As for the defence, it's actually not as bad as you think. A lot of the problems stem from the Leaf forwards lack of commitment to defence.

But this is the type of thread that gets us in trouble. The mods say we are too unfriendly to outsiders coming in here. I said outsiders are welcome if they dont make stupid proposals for our young guys. That rarely happens though.
We have many great outsiders that are fans of other teams that are welcome here.

Which mod told you that poop? This thread is way better when the tards come marching in. Not even Reveen can make a gif funnier than some of these stupid proposals.

I think the Oilers are still at leats 3 years away from contending so I would choose a young goalie ( 21-24 ) to grow with the team. the Jets also have two potential stars in Hellybuck and Comrie I'd look at and inquire about. Hellybuck is getting alot of attention now but i think Comrie will be awesome as well.

he's probably not a top 20 goalie in this league.....

lundqvist, price, rinne, rask, anderson, bishop, fleury, schneider, dubnyk, quick, luongo, bobrovsky, crawford, andersen, gibson, allen, howard, varlamov, holtby, hiller, smith, halak, miller, lack

you could make an argument that there are 20 goalies on that list better than bernier....or pretty damn close.

I would do both. Anderson and a 21-24 yr old would be ideal.
