Was making the case for him at best being in the NHL.

To say he's anything but a bad goalie is utterly ridiculous.

I didn't realize how short our memories were on here...

Our memories are intact. He's a decent Goalie. And is capable of being a backup in the NHL.

Joey Mullen. He was there under Stevens, and he's still here. Not every issue on a team comes down to black and white and can be blamed on a Coach.

Mullen became assistant coach June 6 of 2007...

Who was before him? McCarthy? I'm drawing a blank.

McCarthy came with Laviolette, and he coaches the defense.

everyone is capable of anything....

Thats like saying i'm capable of flying to the moon and back.... just cause someone is capable of something doesn't mean they can... and he hasn't. Or he wouldn't be in the ahl

Let's be real. Everyone is not capable of playing goal in the NHL. So we'll start there. Are there any other reasons why he might not be in the NHL?

If you were a GM in the NHL you would feel good about signing Leighton as your backup?

If he was healthy, sure. There are backups in the NHL right now that Leighton is equal to.


I got to run out. I'll be back.

There is no way in hell you actually believe that...

Come on guys... arguing over Carter and Carle is one thing.. both are legit NHL'ers... but Michael f'ing Leighton?

This is a sad joke....

Rocky would you sign Leighton to be your backup goalie if you were a serious NHL GM?
