Nice read, big dog.

Last day at my current job. Here till noon, zero (frank)s to give, and start the new gig Monday

Also have a call at 11 with someone from EC about maybe heading there. Would be (frank)in wild to be tearing it up at the same joint

Buddy's bachelor party cottage weekend. Should be a (frank)in rip roar

komarov kadri brown
lupul bozak marner
jvr matthews. nylander
martin. laich hyman
holland or greening as 13th fwd

minors or buyout:
michalek for sure
maybe laich or grening, but probably sosh/leivo has to wait, BUT I think Leivo would have to clear waivers so they should keep him instead of greening or laich if that is the case

Sure.. But that 3rd line needs to get at least the same amount of time as the second line.. lol.. too much firepower there to be a 3rd line.

The team seems to think Kadri and Rielly are good enough players and core pieces to lock them up for 6 years.

I like Kadri. He's got his issues, sure, but he's a feisty little (frank)er

When he backchecked 150 feet as fast as he could just to level Marchand in the slot, that was probably my favorite moment of last season.

Edit: Maybe not 150 feet

Absolutely. Leafs won't have a 1st, 2nd or 3rd line. THey'll have similar minutes with the PP and PK players having higher minutes.

Kadri's line will get the tough duties. THe other two are your scoring lines to deploy at will depending on who's having the better night.

JVR Matthews and Brown/Marner/Nylander in the long run is gonna make for an amazing line!

He really doesnt get enough credit..

You can't hang onto things hes done 3 years ago, and he didnt really do anything that stupid anyways. He battles for his team, probably more so than any other player. He was the biggest target last year.. Big stars like Benn and Perry get frustrated by him and he holds his own. He almost has Tuckers heart... And that huge for a team that has nothing.
- Arctic_AARDVARK

All great reasons why he should be used to get a D back in a trade. After all, we already have Bozak.

And Flyfreaky would just eat your free burger anyway.

Kadri leads by example on the ice.. He doesnt back down, and does the most to fire his team up. That's leadership.. He's not captain material. You're right tho, some are natural leaders, some arent.
- Arctic_AARDVARK

He dives.
to me...not leadership at all.

- Conquest

oh ya....I forgot we had him.

Everyone dives.

Everyone dives.
- Scabeh

Nah...not at all.
Some embellish sure....but not blatant dives.
Its why I cant watch soccer and why Tucker really annoyed me during his last several years with the leafs.

Nothing close to tuckers heart...but he has his diving skills.

Although I will admit....he is improving.

Every Hab dives.

Some might be worst than others.

But I think every player tries to sell a penalty here and there.
