Since there's a lot of cap space he could be paid $3M for a one year deal and then he wouldn't care about the tax.

Starting arguments that go on for pages, stating the same poop over and over. Every. Single. Night. Yeah that’s fine. (frank) you Bruce. Not literally though...

Being an idiot intentionally and instigating pages of pointless arguments for the sole purpose of arguing is alright because he's "being polite"?

That's crazy. I've stopped responding to the idiot, but it's still annoying going through pages of his nonsense.

It'd be nice if everyone else did, as well. Or even better, this site had a "mute/ignore" button.

Garf wants patches for the Sabres because of his leadership pedigree.

Sounds about right for the Sabres.

There should be a block option on HB. If the Pope can block FCN on Twitter, I should be able to block UG on here.

I want patches here for his scoring. Play him with Matthews and Nylander or Tavares and Marner.

All that Vermette talk is rather insulting.
- PatC80


I must disagree.

Insulting - absolutely not

Boring, Repetitive - absolutely

Unnecessary and again repetitive - absolutely - and makes me think that UG may in fact be female... the nagging repetitive nature, lack of logic... more typically female.

While I myself usually identify as an Apache Helicopter, this insult against the female gender (suggesting UG might be female) really overheats my rotor system!

I think they definitely have to win a playoff round next year.. But there's no reason why they couldn't be considered a contender.
- Arctic_AARDVARK


The team that placed 7th overall last year without Tavares? They have to absolutely be considered contenders. I don't agree that they are favourites, but they are in the top-5 mix.

I hope it happens... and his 8M+ salary demands would fit beautifully win Buffalo, GM Jack ECHL would permit it.

If he demands more, Mike Babcock will pull down his pants, bend over, spread his cheeks, and point around the slightly darker brown-tinged skin and explain "you're not worth what you're asking because this is where you play, the perimeter." Then he'll proceed to put his finger in his ass and explain that "this is where you need to go when you have the puck if you want the big bucks and to be a gud pro"

- Arctic_AARDVARK


Because to be a contender you have to prove you are a contender. A team like Chicago has won multiple Cups and their core players are all still there. They had terrible goaltending because Crawford was injured. But they're a contender because they've proven they can win and/or contend. Same goes with the Penguins, the Capitals and the Kings. The Lightning, the Predators and the Jets have all gone deep in the playoffs multiple times.

The Leafs have not proven anything yet. They could finish #1 in the standings next year and if they lose in the 1st round, what have they done? So until they can prove it, you can't pencil them in as a top five contender. The Leafs are a playoff team, of that we can all be pretty sure but after that, whether or not they can compete in the playoffs, that needs to be proven before we can say they are a legit contender or not.

he's being polite... just stating an unpopular viewpoint

nothing new

- Dozzer


Can't say the same about half the people here though, just look at this past page.

I bet Vermette’s wife doesn’t blow him as much as UG did/does.

- Monkeypunk


A team that placed 7th because of SO wins (Bozak), not because of ROW. JVR and Bozak scored 47 goals last year and while Tavares may replace that offensive production, the defense is still weak. There's no guarantees the Leafs are incredibly better than they were last year. They could be the same or they could even lose a few points. Teams like Columbus have finished with 108 points one year and then finished with less the next year. Progress isn't always linear.
