Carol Schram: Vancouver Canucks Game Day: Nov 14 at Toronto Maple Leafs, Hansen to PP1 Jannik Hansen will join the first power-play unit and Ryan Miller's expected to start in net as the Vancouver Canucks look to pick up two points as their longest road trip of the season winds on.

Oh please let us help the sad-sack Leafs with their continued failures as a franchise!!


And we're off….

Tootoo on Burrows: "I know the type of player he is, so I figured he wasn't going to back up what he said and be a man about it."

It's like you are throwing chum into the water...

Tootoo is a piece of work just like Burrows, that said, I'd like to see him beat the living poop outta Burrows and his big mouth.

This Corrado situation must be addressed by the NHL.

I am not a bleading heart kind of guy but they are messing with this kid in a serious way. Imagine... first being a lifelong leafs fan (and maybe for that he is getting what he deserves... but I digress) but after proudly shouting to the rooftops with his grandma by his side that he is 'home'... the house doesn't want him.

Ultimately... can you imagine being a Maple Leaf NOT GOOD ENOUGH to make the Maple Leafs???

Just heard that the NHL has decided to create a new department that deals with political correctness, others feelings and sensitivity to player misguided choices, they have appointed Sean Avery to head the department and decided to call the department Charm School.

Alex Burrows has been sent to Charm School...expect a kinder, gentler Alex in the future.

They should sit down like men and resolve this over a drink.

Corrado probably wishes he was back playing with the Comets after his initial excitement about getting picked up by his hometown team….it's definitely more fun playing than it is sitting no matter where you are.

Your d core is nothing to write home about and he didn't make it. I guess he'll just have to settle for playing for Canada at the World Cup and Olympics...

Wonder if the Canucks have requested an investigation, or are just waiting until he hits waivers again?

True statement...

Leafs have done nothing wrong, it's not against the rules or ethics to pluck a player and make them sit….the rules state they can do whatever they want with him once they claim him.

Canadiens are doing the same with Jared Tinordi, except the waiver claim part, he's sitting every game because they don't want to expose him to waivers. Feel bad for the kids but you know what, if they want to make the team…play better.

You guys are going down against a class organization. Take notes.

I was on TooToo's side till he started mouthing off to the media every damn day.
GET OVER IT

He is lucky to be in the NHL, guy is a complete scrub.

The fact is....the kid isn't that good.

Curious. What would there be to investigate?
It doesn't seem the leafs did anything illegal. They are within their rights to keep prospects in the press box.
Is it best for corrados development? No.
Is it the right thing to do personally? No.
Is it cheeky? A lil bit.

Yup….so I'm not sure why they claimed him in the first place.

The canucks have called up Shinkaruk




Nylander and Him have been some of the best players in Junior

The hate between the two franchises and fan bases runs deep….I guess??
