The Leafs will sign Cody Hodgson this Summer, my first ever prediction on HB. I know that this might lead to years of nocups coming in here and saying repeatedly "Steaming Lombardi thinks the Leafs are going to sign Hodgson, what a fool" but what the hell.

Ray Ferraro just commented on Markstrom via TSN1040. Said he watched him before he came to the Canucks, against Grand Rapids (son), he said he had a ton of holes in this game, pucks going in the shouldn't have.

He watched him again this year, not the same goaltender, like not even same ball park, his words. Hopes he can bring that to the NHL, that's the big question.

2 seasons ago my buddy got called up to the Ice Hogs and he scored a goal against Markkstrom that gave me serious doubts about him. He was on the goal line and near the corner with a near impossible angle-- There was no way it should have went in from that far out.

Ferraro is right... He had all kinds of holes in him. I am excited to see how well he can translate this last season into his new role.

Either that, or they will sign him and he will come in saying that he is the next Cam Neely that we gave away.

Blame the old idiot fans for that.
Signed Barry Pederson as a FA n Neely was compensation.
Glen Wesley also a 1st rd pick.
Fans cried n whined to make a splash n it sunk us.

Since the Laffs r the NHL version of the Cubs here goes...
1967 last Cup n only 6 teams n just 2 miss playoffs.
Only 2 rounds to win Stanleys Mug.
48 yrs n not a single Cup Finals.
Still whining about non call on Gretzky only memory.
Playoffs r a Stanley Cup for the Laffs.

Pretty sad sack resume...

Harold Ballard and the Teachers union made our owners look like Mike Ilitch.

I'm guessing DW he has a rep for being difficult.

Rollie is known as one of the better goalie coaches in the league.

If they would have brought Allaire in here like Lou wanted we would have that cup. He could have coached the choker out of Lou.

The Laffs will never see 4 rounds of SC playoffs until they do a FULL teardown of that franchise from the ground up. Babcock will help of course but it will take a completely new team to get them to the 4th round.

You'd think he was a top pairing dman with the obsession here. Yet Tanev is easily tradable to some.
