Your gif game is on point.

The goalie situation in Utica sucks . Next year Mikey
- VANTEL

31 thoughts podcast today, Marek was saying he believe's MD is the best goalie in the OHL. I forget the rest of what he said exactly but was lots of praise for him.

Once Anderson comes back, the leafs will have to put someone on waivers or trade. That doesn't really help the Canucks at all as they need someone who is already in the minors. Play it out as is and tell the players in Utica to play better

The Bertuzzi incident was exactly that. Giving him a payback shot in the head whether he would face it or not... led to the pile on that injured Moore.

I'd try and bait him into dropping the gloves but to actually go after him now will only result in the Canucks facing payback in multiple ways.

Yes but yet the Bertuzzi incident wouldn't have took place if Moore (a plug) hadn't tried to take Naslunds face off. Many ways to look at it. Again I'm not condoning what Bertuzzi did and it was unfortunate the pile on Moore caused what it did but don't take liberties with star players and there will be no need for retribution IMO.

A lot of sports writers could learn from Carol. You can be balanced while still expressing your opinions without being sensationalist. Based on her readership here and the amount She contributes to other publications clearly there is an appetite for her style of reporting. We’re pretty lucky, actually.

Well said wow. Carol is the glue that keeps us all together.

They say they are moving Archie to remove the Veteran spot so they can play a prospect. They traded Archie for Pyatt who is also a vet and has played every game.

Codes is correct, it is a bunch of people that live in their basement . Blogger wannabes

Not much different then the people that have made it out of the basement that write stuff we hate just as much.
Every once in a while a blind squirrel can find a nut.

Pyatt also makes as almost as much as Archie and Carcone combined.

Uhm no.

Pyatt made 1.1 mil

Archie made 650 K and Carcone made 765 K plus they drop Nilssons 2.5 mil and only need to have a cap hit of 100K for Pyatt seeing he is sent down.

Archie and Carcone were moved because they were on a one way contract making too much money for what they did.

Archie's minor salary was 250,000. Carcone still being on ELC was 60,000. Neither counted against the cap.

Pyatt makes 1.2 M

They both sign one way contracts?

I seen that

I was more interested in the "roughing" penalty that Lind took.

And everybody's favourite Gauncey with another assist.
