The Leafs need to blow the b*tch up...They have only one or two players worth keeping...

We should have established a draft lottery drinking game. That would definitely have been on there.

Drink!

Come on. It's a match made in heaven. Yakupov and his amazing interviews with Grabovski and his. Yakupov won't be any good in Montreal because he'd be too worried about learning "Je suis". He left Russia so he doesn't need drunken frozen nights in Edmonton. I'm sure Columbus fans are racists. He is dead set against rich Asians so the Isles are out of the question.

Meh you never know... not saying your point isnt valid but who knows what goes through Nash's head.

Think about what motivates a player. The money is in his pocket already so that leaves where he can win and where he has to live. Winning in Toronto is very far away and considering he has to live in that type of hotbed, it could get very tiresome very quickly. You look at his alternatives, teams like Vancouver or any other Cup contender, and it's a lot easier on him. Plus, he gets to compete for the Cup instead of having press conferences on why he missed the playoffs again.

When this is over, Duthie should turn to Tambellini and say "See you next year, Steve"

burke just said he'd select either a high skilled forward or high skilled defenseman

so if it goes

CBJ- yakupov
Edm- murray
MON- grigo
Nyi- gal

does burke go up there and pick dumba? or will he take the chance at faksa?

Not happening until Burke's gone. I think it's no coincidence that so many contracts are expiring in his last year of his contract; gives them a good opportunity to quickly unload players at the deadline and stockpile picks.

Look at the (frank)ing guy. He even reminds me of Grabovski.

And Steve would lie and say he hates being there but then get the last laugh in a few years.

Just watch, the year it's considered a weak draft, we'll win the lottery

Does it piss you off that you're not the GM of the team yet?

Never mind Grabovski. Nail is Muslim. Perfect fit with Kadri.

True story.

Tambellina has a permanent seat at the lottery draft on TSN every year...
