I don’t care if he’s the next Ovie, I really don’t want the Russian.

What if say he was the next Mikhail Yakubov or Pavel Vorobiev?

He has two eyebrows so he can't be one of those guys. I think it was Vorobiev with the unibrow.

Yep, it was Pavel. It was about the only thing that stood out for either player...besides sucking.

If he's the next Alexander Karpotsev the Hawks have to take him.

When Pat Foley was great. Fantastic scathing commentary on Potsy. It makes the trade of the 3rd pick that became ?Sedin (Hank I think) for Bryan McCabe even worse.

Faulk on the PK, yikes

That (frank)er had a pushbroom between his eyes and his forehead

Uncle Dale was on 670 The Score today. Fun interview. After he was gone they played the wee-knee call. Cracks me up every time.

Hard to believe - given their long history - but his PS goal was only the 2nd playoff PS goal in Leafs’ history.

Bruins will lose this series

Big, slow, and dirty.

I always forget how dirty these guys play...

Yep, Toronto wins this series. Boston looks old, slow and tired.

Tavares outskates Pasternak?

It's a long series, hell this game isn't over yet

But if the Bruins don't honor the Leafs speed then yes i agree with you

Down 3 to 1. That's not typically how they play. But post season is a hell of alot different from the regular season.

Could be 5-1 easily.

Unlike NBA, just about any NHL series could go either way.

Colorado will give the Flames all they can handle.

Caps just smearing the Canes along the boards, feel bad for Aho

Could be 5-1 easily.

Yes sir it could have been.

My assumption is that Stan's plan is to try to win the Cup within the next 3 to 4 tears - i.e. within the T&K window. Maybe T&K will still be playing at an elite level beyond 4 years but it's unrealistic to expect that. If that assumption is correct, then I hope and expect Stan to go "all in" to try to achieve that objective. The question then is what is the best way to use the #3 pick - what is the best "all in" move to make.

First, the "all in" plan prioritizes short term (3-4 years) over long term (5+ years) which means that the best use of the #3 pick is to get a player or players that are online by year 2 and contributing by year 3. If Cozens or Podkolzin or Byram or any of the other guys in the conversation can meet that criteria then maybe the best "all in" move is to draft that player. However, if it is certain not one of those guys can meet that criteria - then trading the pick for a player or players ready to contribute now may be the best "all in" use of the #3 pick.
