Jesus! I thought the Habs-Bruins brawl was ugly, but this shit is crazy too. I would have never thought the Isles would have 9 goals on the Pens and whip their asses.
Seriously. I mean, I know you love to play and all, but that’s why they have Adult rec. leagues. Lol, though he’d probably have about 12 pts a game in one of those.
Lol at Forsberg coming out of retirement to retire two days later. Brett Favre imitation fail.
Someone told him he’d be playing for the 1st place Nordiques. Two days later he looked around and said “Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaait a minute!”
stick to the beer leagues
And our first 1st round pick comes our way, courtesy of a nice trade with philly…versteeg to philly, for a first and 3rd round pick
still more defence to go
not bad considering versteeg was a bust. Still phillys first round pick is going to be shit.
we picked up versteeg for stalberg or whoever, and versteeg was actually playing pretty good, but he’s 24 already, so a first round pick is still better.
Keep in mind, although Philly’s pick is probably gonna be 20th overall or whatever, it sure beats waiting until the 3rd round to do ANYTHING. And I’m fairly certain we’ll have more first round picks soon enough (once we find a buyer for Kabby)
Kaberle to Boston for 2012 First round pick, conditional pick, and Joe Colborne
Burkie trying to make right his wrongs, although both low picks, they are still 1st rounders, two quality prospects with potential and as well the conditional pick (can be 2nd round in 2012 iirc if the bruins resigns kabby or they make it to the Stanley Cup finals this year), not to mention Lupul as well.
It’s like Burke and Colangelo are half-heartedly racing to undo the boneheaded moves they made to their respective sports teams since their arrival. Wait until we see a cross-sport trade to really shake things up: MacArthur to Raptors for Bargnani.
I hope they both get extended.
So they waited all this time to trade kabby for that? wtf. Apparently burke is cracking under the pressure and listening to all the clowns yelling for first round draft picks. Too bad he got 2 picks that are going to be shit.
if you seriously think 2 first round picks, albeit low first round picks, aren’t going to help, you’re nuts. And keep in mind we traded away our 2 first round pics, so this kinda makes up for kessel. We just kinda moved down in the ranks for next years draft. I can live with that. The last vestiges of the JFJ days are finally gone.
People need to realize that Burke has FIVE years to work with that team before he even has to show ANY improvement. When he took over, they had fuck all. No picks, no drafts, no prospects, no players. Then Burke managed to get Kessel, Phaneuf, some damn nice goaltenders in the Monster and Optimus Reimer, and much more. People everywhere seem to think that the Leafs are magically the only team that should and SHALL be able to turn things around in one year, and if they don’t then they must be horrible horrible things.
I was gonna make a joke about the Leafs trade relating to waffles in some way, but I couldn’t think of anything.
Instead, here’s a pic of James Wisniewski’s face after he took a puck to the face.
The leafs are shit at drafting. Who’s a leaf draft pick that’s main stay on the roster. Schen. How much you want to bet they get two guys that go to the marlies and we never hear from them again. Although i’ve heard burke might package them and try to get a higher pick
He’s baaaaaaaaaaaack
Jordin Tootoo cleared to play for Nashville Predators - On the Forecheck
That sound you hear is Detroit’s division lead crumbling
yup, i doubt the draft picks are set in stone. However, Burke has shown his drafting prowess many a time, whereas previous GM’s were held by the balls by the stupid fucking Leaf ownership
I thought that sounded an awful lot like another beer getting opened.
And we took it to the Canucks on Thursday despite some lenient calls and three injuries during the game (one that put Marcel Goc on IR again)…
MY BOY. Taylor Hall. =D
