Great purchase by your step father since prices are back to more normal levels. West Palm beach is not inexpensive so well done

Condo fees are low as well. On a golf course and horse track.

It's not his fault he was a Front. He was doomed from the start.

he's been a borderline NHL guy for like 3 years now. He's peaked as a possible bottom pairing RHD, sadly.

Sounds like good choices. Any Tampa games. That should be worth it.
- AdamFrench


I'd watch Tampa Bay but they're a Thursday night. I want to see a Saturday night game. But a lot of them are back-to-back nights and I don't want to see a back-up (and likely a loss). Then again, the Bruins could had them an L too but if they win, it'll be amazing to see.

I got two free tickets to any Leafs home game (beer not included).

Which game would be #1 must see?

I've got Habs and Bruins on my list so far.

- JohnFergusonJr

Home Opener.

Then any Leafs vs. Habs game on a Saturday night.

Then any Saturday night game against the following teams:

Ottawa
Boston
Philly
Buffalo
Detroit

They are all the best atmosphere.

Friday night games are also pretty good.

I wouldn't stress too much about the back to back games - Leafs will usually play Andersen vs the better team (if that helps at all)

It's insane how many busts/issues that franchise has pumped out.

Borderline NHL RHD?

Sign us up. He'd fit in.

Wait, for the love of God tell me he's not an RFA

I've got 4 seats for the Dec 23rd matinee against Carolina: early game and many beers afterwards to celebrate Gardiner having his jockstrap dangled off many times over.

So based on this, you'd rank a Wednesday night home opener against Ottawa higher than a Saturday night game against Boston, correct?

I agree with the majority of this criteria but Ottawa is so horrible, I think I'd rather seem them play a better team. And the only home games against Montreal are coming off a back-to-back (do not want to see a back-up) or the last game of the season (won't matter).

don't need to go there... Boston gave Petrovic a PTO... now with Carlo and the greatest defenseman ever signed, Petrovic won't get a look...

Leafs should grab that guy... he can't be worse the Schmaltz or Marincin... that's simply not possible.

you know he is.. If we sign him, it would have to be at least 6.9M per season

Ottawa Wednesday, Columbus Friday, Montreal Saturday.

Wouldn't surprise me one bit for them to throw in the back-up on Saturday night.

And I have zero interest in seeing whatever poop back-up they have this year potentially ruin a Saturday night game.

About 20 years ago, me and Mrs. Wedgie went down to visit her parents, who had rented a place in John's Pass/Madeira Beach.

I still remember drinking some beers on the patio at a bar called Gator's, and watching dolphins play in the channel. It was so franking surreal - good times.

- Atomic Wedgie


We like to go to a pier bar on Anna Maria island and watch the dolphins too. Sometimes get to swim near dolphins and manatees which is fabulous.

No way we'll squeeze him and Dermott in unless we operate a 16 man roster

I don't see it.

In a year where we're wanting to decrease the workload of Andersen we have to turn the reigns over to bandaid Neurvith or Hutchinson

I think they'll be fine as long as they put Tavares and Matthews on LTIR

Points deal, although a bridge, makes Nylanders, Matthews, and Marners deals look awful cap hit wise. It's safe to say Dubas, as a rookie GM, is a poor negotiator.
