Parenteau is (frank)ing brutal. No matter what the analytics say about him.

He's very good in the shootout, though.

- Pecafan Fan


Brutal might be a little much.. a 4mil player has much bigger expectations
the leafs got him on the cheap for 1 year

sounds like he had issues with the habs terrible coach

I do think Marner will be talented enough to play in the NHL this year...but I don't think he makes Babcocks team. He'll be the most impressive guy in camp though

They called about Biggs. Shanny said they'll only move him if Pitts took Kessel as well

Ok then. For the shootout.

#2 Parenteau
#3 Franson

Bozak was 3 for 10 last year in the shootout.

Saw this yesterday

Kessel 6' and 202lbs - Fat
Crosby 5'11" and 200lbs - Not fat?

also beats Seguin in All star game fastest skater

strange

- senstroll


Look at what a 10 pounds of muscle looks like vs 10 pounds of fat.

Just not sure he's ready to be in the NHL, and do we want him to be there in a year where we expect to finish near the bottom?
- Garnie


Probably Leafs management does not want him there, and prefers him to develop for 1-2 years.

Thing is.. Marner wants to make the team.
This is the guy that a few weeks before the draft he already was speaking of Strome going to Arizona, and himself being delighted if drafted by the Leafs. A guy that wears blue and white colors to a draft. My bet is, if that Marner (elite talent) wants to make the team, he'll have a very good chance of making the team.

Also our 3 on 3 line-up.

And Babcock won't let them off the ice for the full 5 minutes.

Crosby's weight is in his legs (they're huge), Kessel's is in his gut.
- mykokes

Not when you're trying to unload 7 million a year.

My hopes for the season

1. Kadri grows up and emerges as a leader on the team

2. One of the new pick ups (Harrington?) has a good year

3. Team plays Bancock's system/works hard.

4. Lock-out

So Boston traded the only decent piece from the Seguin trade to get rid of Savard. Wish the Leafs coulda snagged him.

If there was an actual swear jar I'd be bankrupt with all the Franson talk.

I think he's talented enough. But it'll be a huge uphill battle. Definitely the opening night topic on Coach's Corner.

No chance. We all know what this team is going to be next season and Marner (and the majority of our top prospects for that matter) should be nowhere near this tire fire.
