Have you seen the Higgins Dog? Apparently people didn't want their imitation processed hobo meat topped with wasabi infused whip cream and cucumber jelly, so Benning has sent the entire shipment to an Isis controlled strong hold. Soon they will declare a fatwa on Higgins and Vantel will be able to sleep at night again.

patience all of JB's plans require patience.

Thanks Carol for mentioning Sportsnet's lack of proper Canucks coverage.

Pull your head out of your ass SN!!

You can let Scott Moore know directly that it is not Vancouver that is a fickle market, it is their second rate content. And the lack of post game shows a total lack of care or quality or coverage.

We need to help out the Ducks. Why u might ask?

1st off to help them into the playoffs n pass us pushing us out
n get us a higher 1st rounder.

2nd cuz that 2nd rounder we got for Bieksa n sent to the Pens for
Sutter is looking pretty good n needs to be later in the 2nd round.

3rd they have cap space n also a few players we can audition.
Eg Maroon Cogliano or hopefully Theodore.

4th I think Murray is a lil panicked atm n ripe n JB can make his
latest n greatest move when the time is ripe.


Potential trade bait now or TDL:
Vrbata, Burrows, Hamhuis n maybe Baertschi.

Many teams will take a chance on Vrbata/Burrows. Hamhuis and Baertchi not so much.

Petitions are useless. The best message is to turn off the channel when Canucks aren't on. I watch one of the other games that is not the Leafs on Saturday. After Canucks post games are done so am I

True. I haven't watched a Leaf game on Sat night since SN provided the option of other games so that's a good thing. McClean being gone is a good thing too. So there are a few few positives of the SN monopoly. But it's still baffling how CDN teams (especially Van) get no national broadcasting on nights where American teams are playing. Theyll show Boston/Detroit at 5pm on a weeknight but won't broadcast the Canuck games nationally at 7/8pm...

Depends on where their points are at TDL but I could see some playoff teams showing interest in Burrows. He may be useless for us now in reg.season but he has shown to be a pest in the PO's which many teams could use. With Vrbata it's all about goal production. He is a soft PO guy but if he is around 20 at TDL I could see a fair amount of teams getting in the mix. Risk/reward but maybe in the east Vrbata would have milder PO success.

Face the reality. Teams out East don't care about us and it also too late to do National broadcasts. Viewers want to go to bed at 11, not. 1.30

National Broadcasting just does not work on a country this wide and it is just too costly to operate 2 HQs . Save yourself the ongoing grief and watch The Big Bang Theory instead

THE CORRADO EFFECT

The only reason Frankie Corrado is getting to play tonight is because the NHL demanded it. "PLAY HIM OR LOSE HIM"*** The Canucks were forced to make a formal complaint once Hamhuis was injured about the way The Leafs took him off waivers with no intention to play him.

*** Source: TSN

Before you get all uppity about the complaint, do you own reading on the purpose and history of the waiver wire. Do this before you make the stupid argument that it was the Canucks fault for putting him on waivers in the first place. Educate yourselves for once.

So to avoid being a further national embarrassment, the Leafs must play him to show that they actually had plans for him rather than admit they had no idea what they were doing when they got him.... which Babcock has already done... and suffer the embarrassment of having to put him back on waivers, by which the Canucks would have first dibs.

Way to go! Leafs 1, Integrity 0.

assuming you mean the majority of fans in the east don't care about what's going on in the west? or does it matter? cause they are all in bed?

the toronto sports channels are regional channels with local content broadcast nationally. that is the only way to interpret their programming.

TSN 1,2,3,4,5
8pm pst th2n
9pm sportscenter
10pm sportscenter
11pm sportscenter
midnight th2n

once midnight hits back east, they serve us sh!t, they don't care, there is no effort to provide sensible programming. It was even more unbearable when they had all the Blue Jays poopy on, just repeating itself like a bad case of the stomach flu. just looking for hockey highlights and analysis.

I just shed a tear.
