Uh, where the F did you learn how to write. This is horrible.

It's unnecessarily long-winded but it makes sense and is grammatically correct.

Edit: Also, you asked a question and ended it with a period.

Dear god, is this what it feels like to be LumLums?

I did not put a question mark because I don't care about the answer.
It was bad.

Pass on all those guys. I'd rather see them give almost any Marlie a chance over a random replacement player or someone whose washed up like Bieksa.

OH the ole nostalgic Wendel YT vids.

My first favorite Leaf was Potvin.. Had a jersey and everything..

Honestly tho, i don't think there's anyone who has more heart in the league than Kadri. For some reason i think if he grew up on a farm in Saskatchewan and had a typical Canadian name we'd see a lot more comparisons to Wendel than we do.

I agree with Kadri. Heart? YES. Toughness, not even close.

THis again?? No to all the PTO crap, we are better than that now.
Hard no to Bieksa.
No to Franson - would drive too many here nuts, though he’s way better than Bieksa or other retreads that keep getting mentioned in blogs.
I can’t wait until camp starts and we have something real to obsess about.

Fair enough.

I think if Kadri were to play that type of game back in the 90's when guys used to just (frank)in' hurl bombs every game he'd fair okay. No one does that anymore because the NHL wants to appeal to a wider audience and its dumb anyways. Theres literally no one who stopped watching because its less violent. But im not so sure Clark would put up the same numbers playing against today competition.

Sad to think rules have changed the game that real men use to play.

Love Kadri he’s got heart for sure, he’s not scared but to think he’s a fraction as tough as Clark is just silly.

Clark is a man’s man. Wendel could beat up anyone in today’s NHL.

Wendel was the greatest.....

Jamie Benn is his closest current comparable

No to both. Their time has passed. Let’s see what we already have or what some of the young guys will be over the next two seasons. Those guys don’t add enough to take us over the top. What does it say to the young Marlies pushing for NHL jobs if they get blocked by PTO hacks??
We are past the stage of pick up a PTO it two to flip for 2nd/3rd round picks at the deadline.

Clark is his prime would lay a beat down on Ryan Reaves 8 times out of 10.

Benn's a cheap shot little female dog.

I (frank)in' hate him.

Good Pl'r tho.

I'm sure there's plenty of guys who could kick the poop out of Benn.

Just a fact. I love Kadri but he’s lucky he didn’t catch a beating from Thornton for ripping the beard.

I never once said Kadri was as tough as Clark...

We all know he's not. But he's just as effective in today's current game as Wendel was in his prime.

I love Kadri as much as the next guy (and he's got heart for days), but he's nothing like Wendel. Wendel would score on teams and beat the piss outta their tough guy in the same game.

There will never be another Wendel, unfortunately.

And I agree with Potvin. He was my favourite player when I was a kid.

I still got that Felix Potvin McDonald's mask that they had back in the day.

Hockey was a blood sport..

Gladly we let Europeans play and teach us the better side of the game.
