I"m worried about the inevitable tension when Shanahan tells Dr. Jeremy Bettle that all sandwiches for the players must contain processed cheese.
- Atomic Wedgie

Yeah, I can see that.. Especially, if Dr. Bettle refers to it as "American Cheese"

Is there posting with the players that the Leafs interviewed this week at the combines in Buffalo?

What is this AAAA you speak of?

It's a metaphorical wasteland where players too good for the minor leagues, but not good enough for the majors go to become used car salesman.

Why is Brennan so good in the A, but so Lebda in the bigs? Is he the prototypical "AAAA" player, to borrow a baseball term?

Even though almost half of them are scumbags, remember that a 51% voted NO and they love Canada & the Leafs = Canada's team so..........

Wow, it's getting close to the realm of possibility of actually signing a RFA.

$7.3 milly a year players would probably be worth giving up a first, second and third.

Not willing to go higher than that, though. Might make sense for other teams, but not for the Leafs.

Agreed. I would want more than a 1st, 2nd, 3rd in return for Phillip K. (Richard).

Oh look, he retreated at the first sign of aggression.

Never expected Lums to go simply go around the big defensive wall he built
