What is Sean Day's game like?

That seals it, Leafs will get the first pick in that draft.

Lindros was the most dominant and feared player in the NHL in his best years. there was no one else like him and in the mid-90s, he was the best overall player in the NHL for a time. he was labelled a generational talent and he lived up to the hype when he was healthy.

what makes him a generational player is that before he was drafted, it was said that he would be the best in the game and he lived up to that.

Agreed ..he was billed as the next one....and he was for a time. HOFamer for sure

More likely reason for Reimer starting are the ongoing struggles of Jonathan Bernier. Bernier holds an .898 save percentage since Dec. 20.

Crap

Exactly. He's not there in the records because of the injuries but he is up there in terms of being head and shoulders above the pack.
- markmark

he was something else to watch.

John LeClair and Mikael Renberg sucked. Lindros had Leclair scoring 50 goals at a time when NHL goal scoring was plummeting.

Pissing Mirtle off on twitter is fun.

Leafs now have 11% chance of finishing third or fourth last, 70% chance of being 5th to 9th, and 19% 10th or higher. 6th or 7th most likely.

Trade Bernier for Value!

keep Reimer. He was always a Leaf anyways, and got us in the playoffs

agree i think he's a rare case where quality should trump lack of quantity.

- BetterCallSaul

Big (like Ekblad which is how he got his exceptional status), skates like a dream, plays with an edge, strong offensive awareness, decent defensively with upside in that regard. Can't wait to see him at the U18's this year

Isn't he on a AHL only contract?
- zazzle

We can change that. It wouldn't be the worst move the Leafs make.

are you eklunds_uncle?

Not quite true...when one refers to Wayne Gretzky as a generational talent. It is indeed being used correctly in relation to hockey.

A generation is 25 years... there's no such thing as a hockey generation unless it just got made up on the internet.

stats don't take into consideration the upcoming hot streak the Leafs will get on...

I hate leaf fans love fest with James Reimer... He is really not that good

You're right. He is also not that bad. He is an average goaltender, middle of the pack.

Leafs are so winning tonight..which one of you will whine the loudest?

Reimer's starting - the win is pretty much guaranteed

i love how you've decided what a generation is and isn't and that it's confined to 25-year periods.

I expect a 47 save, shutout performance by Reimer... Leafs win 1-0

you're taking the term way, way, way too literally
- DoubleDown

I value precision

I would rather say dominant in their era since an era is by its nature open to interpretation.
