He also wasn't impressed with his roll on the team. My buddy (leaf fan) was talking to him at th stampede the other day. Drunk. He let loose of his feeling towards the team I guess.

That's a defininite, but also Rask's numbers were also better than Thomas'. His W and L may be different, but if you look at the goal support he got compared to Thomas...it's ridiculously lower. - celata29
yeah.. boston went through a bit of a goal scoring drought this past season no?

Solid 2-way defenceman. Gunnarson 2.0 more or less. Can't wait to see him in the pros. Should be up witht he big club this or next year. - mfreedman
It'll be at the very least next year unless we have injuries. Like I just said, him and Kostka are currently are only 2 Marlie dmen signed. He got pushed out of the top 6 alot last year, he wasnt even in the lineup most of the playoffs cause of gardiner,holzer and lashoff. He'll be Eakins' go to guy on the top pairing this season

and didnt rask play alot of that time? - Dozzer
No Boston was second in the league in scoring, if I'm not mistaken. It was just many games for Thomas would be 5-2, 6-2, so on and so forth, while Rask would struggle to win games 2-1, 2-1, or lose 3-1, 2-1. It seemed like most of the goals were scored for, while Thomas was in net, especially because Rask had a 2.05 GAA and had a a disproportionately lower W-L ratio.

Yeah I like him a lot. Please don't let Burke waive him in front of Chiarelli though, if he turns out to be Kaberle 2.0 lol...I liked Colbourne - celata29
haha, we don't really have anything to trade with you guys for now. We need a 1 centre or Goalie. Thomas isn't playign this year, so we won't be trading for him. Nothing really unless you want to give us Seguin or Rask back

Lol no take backs!! But no, I meant if Blacker in the future turns out to be Kaberle 2.0 don't let Burke wave him in front of Chiarelli and fleece him again for a puck moving defenseman. Puck moving defensemen are like buttons and shinny objects to babies, when it comes to Chiarelli. He has to push it or own it...at any cost
Edit: Corvo, Kaberle, many minor leaguers you wouldn't know about etc...
