It’s still a 56 game season, Max. I know the reserves are deep but don’t use up all your stupid before the first game. We’re going to need you down the stretch

marincin at 28 years old played in 227 NHL regular season games. he was drafted in 2nd round.
lehtonen at 26 years old played in 0 NHL regular season games. undrafted in nhl.

most likely that marincin is a better player than lehtonen, yes.

- MaximusAurelius

I'd say he's pretty (frank)ing far away from being better than Lehtonen.

It's pretty hard to compare Marincin and Lehtonen at this point.

One of them sucks when he played in the NHL.

The other one has never played in the NHL.

What else can we say?

What a terrible take.

Panarin undrafted, i bet I could find hundreds of players that were drafted in the 2nd round that played more that 200games by 24 where panarin had 0.

You'd say they're better than panarin?

yes, you convinced me -- lehtonen will be on the same level as panarin..

Trump’s lawyers have explained to him that a self pardon may not hold up and, since it requires acknowledging culpability, could leave him open to civil lawsuits for the riots or other issues.

He’s pissed and apparently has said if he’s not getting one he’s not giving out others. Ivanka’s going but daaaaaady

Pay attention Max. If you looked around a bit more, you’d be somewhat less idiotic.

You're allergic to logic?

If one is true then it must hold true for others then no?


You can't even comprehend a comparison can you?

If one had extremely limited capacity for analysis, that would be the case. Is there someone you want to emulate?

Although both statements are true, by not stating the obvious post lacks something strictly on the basis of omission he was a point a game in the KHL this year and was defenseman of the year in the KHL last season - carry on.

Pretty sure Lehtonen will play for the Leafs. I agree. Even if the transition from the KHL to the NHL isn't easy for everyone... you have to give him a chance.

Is he supposed to play tomorrow?

The best one was that goofball that was walking around with Pelosi's wooden podium. He posted it for sale on E-Bay.
- winsix

Apparently that is not true - the podium never left the Capitol building, and the e-Bay posting was fake.

Might as well start him against OTT for the easy transition against a bad team

Let Dermot prove what he has, we know what we are getting from him on the 3rd pairing

This always puzzles me:

How the frank does anyone have an opinion on Lehtonen?

Nobody here watches KHL or Finnish Elite League games.

Gimme a break.

You'll need to wait 20 games before you have any kind of opinion on him.

I think based off him being dman of thr year in khl and starting this year on fire. He got to learn to transition to NA hockey (smaller rinks, more physical) but it's encouraging.

And we've seen marincin for years and know how much he absolutely and utterly sucks ass.

Eugene melynk is trying to get 6000 people in the stands this year...

Seems pretty optimistic if you ask me. They couldn’t get 6000 attendance pre pandemic.
