I believe the term you're looking for is "rofflemao."

I had no idea PK was on the PK. Seriously.

Same, still trying to find numbers on it. Not that I doubt homie, just looking to see.

Yeah...pretty sad to see the school closing. As the article says (not expecting many to read it), the location of the school is very central to Kenmore as a whole. To lose something that big and community-shaping sucks. The benefit of the library across the street, again so centrally located, was such an added benefit.

I liked it when I was there, I walked to school so it wan't bad. Why is it closing ? I was there 6th, 7th and 8th grade

Joe Haggerty of NBCSN NE has us drafting Nylander at 8. That would make for an even more amazing rivalry.

Olli goes 5th, Sergachev goes 9, Chychrun goes 10.

Which is the better scorer?
- adambuffalo

You need to compare Kessels season this year to Vaneks first few years like you mentioned.

By the way coming into last season the only two RWers that scored more than him in the previous 4 season were Ovechkin and Pat Kane. When was Vanek ever mentioned in the same breath or had stats to back it up as the best of the best?

Vanek scored his best on a deep team.

Kessel scored his best and was a point per game player on the damn Maple Leafs.

I'm glad someone has the motivation. I'm genuinely curious.

Kessel and Vanek should never be talked about in the same sentence.

Why is there a debate on whether Kessel or Vanek is better. Kessel has always been the better player. Always. And I was a Vanek fan.

I walked too.

Closing because they need to consolidate schools, not enough students to support them all. Going down from 12 schools in Ken-Ton to 9

Because many have a blind hatred for Kessel....


....because he is fat.

But but but... Kessel eats too much, eats unhealthy, has bad breath and doesn't train hard enough.

6' 202

Ovechkin: 6' 3" 239
Benn: 6' 2" 210
Getzlaf: 6' 4" 221

E. Kane: 6' 2" 204

If I'm reading this right...Kessel only had 40 seconds of SH time this entire season.

I don't have a blind hatred. I have a scent related hatred. For his bad breath.

this is an accurate post

Since the lockout

Vanek: 66 goals
Kessel: 88 goals

Kessel also has played all 246 regular season games in that time while Vanek only missed 14 games.

This is coming from a big Vanek fan
- stashu

Not saying Vanek is better now. Just saying they are basically the same player over their careers. Vanek is also 4 years older. Both have great offensive talent, but are defensive liabilities. They play on 1/3 of the ice. Neither seem committed to improving their overall game, yet even with their deficiencies, Vanek still won the NHL +/- award in 06-07.
