I thought that too, but unfortunately they were without Clarkson the year before the lockout too and missed as well. That's the correlation I'm working on exploiting a la HH

Grabo, Mac, etc don't count because they were all also on the team when they missed. O'Byrne wasn't here for the full year.

pretty sure only Leo and Scrivens were ONLY on the team the year they made the playoffs

No doubt the team looked quite different last year than the year before and I trust it will look much different this year as well. Wonder who the new veteran captain will be?

So, which player, who we don't have a prayer of getting, might be a good fit for the leafs today?

McDavid.

This means Komarov > Clarkson. Not kidding..
- Arctic_AARDVARK

No doubt. If Komarov could have scored on half the great chances he had he'd still be a Leaf today.

Ok, I'm sorry

McDavid.

Excellent.

hey Colin, this blog is getting a bit stale... Can you do us a solid and put one up?
- TheThrill

sorry, but I cant...for two reasons actually...1) site restricted my Leafs blogs to Wednesdays and Weekends, and 2) I might just have time for a Flames blog today.

Someone who can win faceoffs.

That is a bit of a sensitive subject, no harm done.

I get where you are coming from. But I'm obligated to say that scoring was not the issue this past failure.. err.. season

Leafs need to make the playoffs before they can potentially play a 90min game.. Wow, as if I just pointed that out.

Im waiting on 3-4 analysts to let me know why 83% of our portfolios didnt get worked from last week....we allow up to 5% miss rate....this is not good and Im waiting to light a few fires under some bums

That said, the moment they get back to me...Im busy until 5-6pm straight.

The 90 mins was not where I was going, it was the entire game scoreless.. See the correlation ?

Besides, the image doesn't say "play for 90 minutes". With intermissions, games are well over that even with no OT

Frig, this is the dumbest thing to be splitting hairs about

This is Hockeybuzz.. Are you surprised.

No I don't see it. Hockey games are 60 minutes.

It was a very light joke.. Don't fall into his trap!!

I didn't realize they were still trying to score during int

Honestly, Im a huge soccer fan. Played provincials and some high levels growing up and still play alumni leagues to this day...but how soft some of these guys are at the pro levels disgusts even me...a simple collision or shoulder to shoulder and buddy is out for 2-3 minutes on the ground like he got shot.

Common now. You're embarrassing yourself.
