These are called Monday Night Takes. Where Witten and Booger say dumb poop and eat Applebee's wings.

Didnt back read.

There aren't rumors that we are trading Ullmark or Hutton are there?

- Shadman306

There shouldn't be. The most underrated part of the job Botterill has done so far is the fact that he only has $3.5 million invested in goaltending right now.

This is not a bad idea at all. Not a bad idea at all.

I have decided to retreat to Galt's Gulch.

Where's that in relation to Garth's Corner?

Honestly, does it matter? If they knew that they were going to need someone for the weekend, they had better options. Instead they played him in 4 games. And, they clearly knew he couldn't hang just based on his ice time against LA.

It's probably the one head scratching move they've made this season. I also get the whole "we don't want to decimate Rochester" but at the end of the day, that team feeds the NHL team. The NHL teams success should be first and foremost. I'd understand a bit if the NHL team was AWFUL and the AHL one was killing it, but both are doing well. And if you have to sacrifice one for another, it should be the AHL team sacrificed for the NHL team.

I guess I didn't realize he played that many games. And I also suppose that's a good thing because that means he didn't (frank) up that badly.

I don't think they ever intended to play Tennyson, and so they'd rather have Borgen playing in Rochester for the week instead of eating hot dogs and popcorn in the lounge and watching the game.

i'd rather have me eating hot dogs and popcorn in the lounge on their dime...where do I sign up?

I don't have anything against Johansson, but he has pretty little time even at the AHL level at this point. It would be nice to ease him in a bit more. No clue how he'd do at the NHL level yet. Though Ullmark did get thrown in a few years ago too, so maybe he'd be fine.

It's also interesting to me that at this point he's only 2 years younger than Ullmark and seems to just finally be getting some decent AHL time.

he was in cincy before getting the call to Rochester...wedgewood and wilcox make up the duo for the amerks

Fine. Give him $9 mill...I'm ok with that. We've been dying for someone like him, let's do this.

I think Wedgewood got one year as a potential trade, 7th, and ensured rochester had vet net minders

Jonas goes up next season to AHL to be full time starter

I almost puked when I heard he was going to go to broadcasting

I was dead wrong on him, probably my favorite since Fouts went into the booth

Funny how I said in Pach’s last blog I wouldn’t pay him a penny over $8.25M. Thanks for the info 89.

Very interesting angle. Nylander’s return leaves the Leafs unable to optimize the value of KASPERI KAPANEN. They remain desperate for D help.

Is there something we can do with this?

Eh. I think they need a RD.

Sabres and Leafs would never make a trade with each other. Unless it’s swapping 6th rounders.
