He's a left side guy. Over six feet and over 200lbs and he's physical. His giveaways are insane and have always been insane. He's also always posted negative posession and play driving numbers despite being a 5/6 guy and playing a couple of years for moderately successful Flyers teams. I don't think he's a solution based solely on his numbers - but I sincerely barely remember him playing.

That’s me.

And my favourite basketball team is the Washington Generals.

Playoffs are tough, injuries will eliminate very good teams early.

It can, but it was 3-1... They won three games without Tavares... They only needed to win one more

I'm sure PK can take them to the first round.

We are only a few months away from the annual pain.

Then I get to hit the golf course, which is even more painful.

Yup they boned it pretty bad.

I'm actually surprised I'm following the team at all... it's no wonder they keep making money.

I was so (frank)ing mad when they lost the way they did against the habs

In short, my TYPE of D add would be a Bortuzzo.

They also lost 4 games without Tavares. Do they lose 4 with him in the lineup?

Injuries to elite/core players are virtually mortal wounds to teams.

It would be a refreshing change of pace to have a player who gets suspended for cross-checking people in the back of the head instead of the face

Tafoli said that when Muzzin went down (pronounced dead) they thought they had the series

Suppose there are any Goodrow or Coleman types that we could add for minimal cost, or are we good up front? No doubt a piece on D is probably foremost.
- Leafsmart




Jarnkrok probably costs a 3rd and a lottery ticket prospect

But if you are asking for Goodrow and Coleman the Leafs would have to give up 3 1sts as did Tampa

Nope. Just their type that go to the net with reckless abandon. On a cheap deal.

Does MTL not become a bottom 3 team in the NHL if they lost that game 7?

EF/TJMS: I had a couple of guys tell me this morning that Justin Faulk tweet about Canada is a bad omen for the trade deadline, very bad omen for the trade deadline

I do know of one player who's pretty prominent who has already said to his team, don't even think about Canada

Yikes.

Friedman also said Chiarot does not have any Canadian teams on his no trade clause

Don't get the comment/video synergy here but I wish Bowie did more w/ Floyd.

Much prefer this early, underrated nugget though:



Kazoo solo aside, it really did foreshadow the themes of late period Waters-Floyd.

Probably would have in their mindset for the offseason. Maybe Weber keeps playing...regardless its silly to worry about because its the same for every team. Good situations create bad situations and bad situations create good situations.

Oh boy, not sure about that. Lots of Hab fans down my way were thinking" Maybe we're not that far off" after their run.

Sure, I guess, I dunno? But he's still one of the top Cs in the league and would be a #1 C for quite a few teams.
