His mom thinks he’s the most handsome boy in the whole basement.

I mean, given his dad/cousin/brother, it's not tough competition...

No, really, he isn't. Pietrangelo has been a 1st team All-Star, he's been top 5 in Norris voting. They just play different positions but reality is, they're both very similar in being among the leaders without actually winning awards.

Read your own words. “Pietrangelo” “has been”.
What is with this man crush?
He’s 29 and good but not great, at least going forward. He is heading out of his prime.
Nylander is 22 and potentially elite.
Leafs lose that trade by a mile.
I agree with the concept of upgrading the D. Just not this way for that guy. Needs to be younger.
You reference St Louis trading big name D at the deadline before.
Shattenkirk.
How well did that work out for Washington and then the rangers?
So a hard no to that type of deal.
Right up there with all the journalists wanting the Leafs to get Alzner as a free agent. Dodged that bullet.
Stop trying to reload the gun.

Ek and the gang talk a big game about poop, but letting EG on the forum and letting Mike and Garf blog shows that they're many sandwiches short of a smorgasbord.

EK’s totally real sources told him it’s all good ideas, though.

Uggie is dumber than a rock.

Don't worry about him, and move on.



It's a shame that the loudest voice is so very rarely the most informed...

Yup.

Aside from the obvious contention, the main reason I stopped coming by was poop like this. Same poop, different day. Just the (frank)ing inmates running the prison.

We need the HB folk to grow a pair and keep him banned. He contributed nothing but idiocy, dumb(frank)ery and contention. He's like God spilled a person - a championship golf score dressed up as an IQ.

So Tavares is heading out of his prime?

Nylander is 22 and potentially elite.

Won't get anybody younger without giving up more. Who's younger and available?

You reference St Louis trading big name D at the deadline before.
Shattenkirk.
How well did that work out for Washington and then the rangers?

I did not reference Shattenkirk. Wasn't talking about him at all actually. Not talking about Alzner either. You're making really poopty comparisons because Pietrangelo is far better than both of them.

Wrong. They can definitely trade Nylander to improve the team defense. Fitting that defender isn't necessarily an issue if they're smart about it.

They can afford Pietrangelo. Nylander + Brown = Pietrangelo extension (And one year at 6.5 next year which is very advantageous too). Let Hainsey walk, they might even be able to fit Gardiner too using Hainsey's money. Or let Gardiner walk and replace him with an ELC.

If you had even 10% the hockey knowledge of Julie* then you wouldn't be constantly berated on here.

And yet, here you are. Dumb as a rock, and as well informed as an infowars episode with your hero Alex Jones.

Even your mom has a hard time loving you.




*I assume you mean Jillian. Which pretty much says everything...

Or alternatively, you can make like a donkey's Richard and hit the road

On the bright side, good dental work though. You've done a good job undoing your mom's genes

Hey G.

Isn't it great to have UG back? Gotta love how much he contributes.

Leafs send dermott down.

They have to waive or trade someone to make room for nylander.
