Leafs thought he was too young and too small, they passed on him, Bruins didn't.

Like I said, they had a chance and they (frank)ed it up.

“The Leafs said I was too young, too small,” he said. “A couple of teams thought that, so I became a Bruin.”

Great reference source a B-reporter from the Sun. Do more research about Orr. - Leafs were never in on Orr - He was signed at age 14

Here's a more credible source:

The article literally quotes Orr saying they tried to sign him, but thought he was too young and too small. This is common knowledge.

Orr has repeatedly said he tried to sign with the leafs but was denied becuase of size

Bobby Orr's own words aren't a good enough source.

Cool story.

The best is Phaneuf.

So many people have said Phaneuf.

And proceed to attempt to justify it...

If Dion comes back does he automatically resume the captaincy?

Half serious question.

I doubt he does the Vince McMahon strut into the locker room after being bought out. Has he played with Cici or Muzz I wonder? Media Gas Bags in Toronto would have a field day with a Phaneuf return.

Anderson is a good goalie, but when it comes to playoff games.... well good luck

We usually only play up to 7, so we’re fine.

Is he the guy you’re hoping cracks the lineup on the forward side of things? Anyone else?

I’m hoping Bjork finally figures it out. The guy has had two injury riddled seasons due his shoulder, which definitely didn’t help matters

Unfortunately the same with Marchment. He's been held to only 44 games each of the past two seasons for the Marlies.

Man, I miss having first round picks and top prospects already. 1st round picks cause they're juicy, and prospects cause it passes the summer quicker.

i've seen many of your posts round these parts, you are clearly projecting. there is something wrong, but it is most certainly with you. and millennial hockey still sucks.

So do we (yes the Leafs, of which I'm not a member but damnit I've suffered enough so I can say we), play Barrie with Rielly? I mean hell he deserves it.

Muzzin-Barrie seems like an absolute rock solid pair 2 but who the hell plays with Captain Morgan? Rielly will never hit 25 minutes a night unless they get him a high end partner for the first time ever.

Edit: maybe Muzzin-Ceci turns into a decent pair, you know fancy stat hated/scapegoat but effective enough to give Rielly and Barrie 25 a night.

Was so afraid he was signing in Toronto. He’s terrible. Will score a bunch of points in Tampa and the same thing will happen again...playoff flame out.
Shattenkirk has been awful since St Louis where he was protected by great dmen

For one season I would've tossed him with Rielly but it would leave too little for Marner.
