Leafs retained 2.5 AAV of Lehner's contract for a 5th round pick.

Bag skate.

Take away ice time.

Ban video games on road trips.

Trading a guy right now is just cutting off your nose to spite your face.

Agreed. If you trade anything significant to "send a message", you should lose your job as a GM.

Dubas doesn't have the luxury of spouting off like we do.

Guess what, the team sucks this year. Literally everything has gone wrong. They will address this when the opportunity presents itself.

I am pretty sure there were 30 GMs throwing boat anchors at Dubas all day, but they weren't lining up to get Bracco, Barrie or Marincin.

Could someone please tell me how to access one's posts from previous blogs. In particular MiB's blogs in the few days after Babcock's dismissal. TIA


And BorjeFan, I'd appreciate knowing exactly what Bourne movie you're saying I plagiarized. I don't believe I've ever even watched one, let alone 'borrowed' dialogue from one. TIA

I guess Parise staying put? Haven't heard anything.

Maybe Bettman saving Lou from himself and blocking the deal.

- floater_willy


Bettman asked Lou how old Parise was, and how much he made. Lou said 24, and 2.7 millon.

The deal was cancelled.

trading Barrie would have been perfect.. and while likely not to have brought a large return - would have allowed Dubas to signal that a) the trade was a failure - but he was salvaging some value out of it b) it wouldn't really have removed a player from the roster that was having much impact - because Barrie doesn't


so - yes a large number of things have gone wrong - but do you sit on your hands and do nothing, recoup no assets... or just continue to bleed?

optically, this looks bad on Dubas. Sure he can try and spin the 'didn't want to do anything bad angle'... but there's no opportunity to correct mistakes either.

wtf??????

vegas is on ltir and needed the full $2.5M retained to make it work. if marleau cost a 1st, that was at least get a (frank)ing 3rd if not a 2nd.
